High School Musical 3

on Monday afternoon i went with my brother and my next door neighbours (3boys)  to see High School Musical 3 and as excited as i was thats how disappointed i became. the music was not nearly up to the standard of the pervious two films, if you can call catchy a standard. i think the kids enjoyed it though perhaps there were too many romantic duets for their liking but i think they still had fun. for me the only reason to stay was to see Zac Efron topless, i am not sure how old he is but i am pretty sure he is old enough not to make me a pervert! if your children and 13 and under and girls i would absolutely take them, but if they are boys i would only take them if they are big fans of the first two and you can't get out of it!

Burn after Reading

Today, under an enormous rain cloud i went to see Burn After Reading, the new Coen brothers film. i had read good reviews and was greatly looking forward to it yet i didn't enjoy it. i couldn't even really tell you why, i just know my mind kept wondering off and when it came back i realised i hadn't missed anything. There were no surprises and the plot was so coen brothers-esque that i felt like i had already seen it. i may be being a little harsh but when i went to the cinema to day i was hoping for a bit of escapism and entertainment and found very little of either. 

End of Work Experience and City of Ember

finally finished my work experience which i actually rather enjoyed. i didn't write much about it cause last week i have serious issues with my  family. one shouting match after another. so on Friday i decided to take some down time and i went to the cinema and out to dinner and then had a couple of drink with some friends. it was a good time :) friends are great aren't they. 

we went to see City of Ember, though essentially its a children's film i decided to go cause i wanted something light hearted with a happy ending and that's exactly what i got with the bonus of being able to stare at Harry Treadaway for over an hour. that said i don't think i would recommend it to anyone over the age of 14. but only because the plot is not sophisticated enough i would give it excellent scores for acting and production design and pretty much every other aspect. 

Day 4

its Day 4 and i have finished early, they have had barely anything for me to do at work all day, they even sent me out to by dishwasher tablets. But other than the staggering lack of things to do i have rather enjoyed the day not least because i asked yesterday it i could wear jeans today thus i am a lot more comfortable. Tonight i am going to the cinema to see Taken with my sister, so i will write a review of that tomorrow, and next week we plan to go and see Brideshead Revisited. i am really looking forward to it but i saw one of the papers today had only given it two stars. oh well i am gonna see it anyway.
toodles for now

So i went to see Taken. and oh my god do i feel like i wasted my night. the effects and the violence were pretty impressive but the story line was as predictable as is was generic. every cheesy and cliched moment you can imagine was there plus a lot of unnecessary violence. i wouldn't recommend it to anyone. at all.

At Work. Day 3

The days are getting better though i am doing the same kind of mind numbing things all day i am doing different tasks so i am at least getting a bit of variation into my day, though most of them involve mailing and photocopying. its my lunch break at the moment so i have lots more to do today including 70 mail outs to compile and send for the publicity department.  

So long suckers!
