What a Disappointment
I wasted $5.50 at the theater today. Such a disappointment considering it’s taken me years to finally get the courage up to attend a movie by myself! I always had this thing with going to a movie by myself…felt that people would judge me, make fun of me, blah blah blah. I finally came to the point where I realized that it didn’t matter what other people thought of me going to a movie by myself. And for $5.50 for a matinee I couldn’t pass it up.
I have a thing for Mark Wahlberg and that was the deciding factor in what to go see. It was a toss up between The Love Guru with Mike Meyers, Kung Fu Panda with Jack Black or The Happening with Mark Wahlberg. Kung Fu Panda was out because I wasn’t in the mood for a cartoon w/out Caleb. I couldn’t get any feedback on Love Guru because no one I talked to had seen it yet. I got mixed reviews on The Happening. Some said it was scary & that I shouldn’t see it (I’m a baby when it comes to scary movies!), my sister Nicole thought it was great, a couple other people said they didn’t really have an opinion and then a couple other people didn’t like it.
I always like to watch a movie for myself regardless of what others say just to see for myself. Well sadly I wish I would of listened to those that said they didn’t like it. I was very disappointed with it. It was tacky, weird, stupid, dumb…yeah you get the point. I totally give this movie two thumbs down! Even with Mark Wahlberg in it, I still give it thumbs down. Even he didn’t make the movie worth my $5.50! LOL
I also left there with a huge huge headache because the screen was so blurry through most of the movie. At least that’s what I thought my headache was from but I’m not so sure. I was sick to my stomach last night and a little bit today but it’s gotten worse and after a couple recent trips to the bathroom I think I have the flu or something. Yuck. Time to go lay down and see if there is anything interesting on TV…Lifetime usually has some interesting movies on during the weekend. Lifetime - television for women. There’s just something about that line that makes me laugh.
I know, my husband and I were SO very dissapointed with this movie. I think it would have been better if they weren’t so bent on trying to make it rated R, and if maybe they had some kind of concrete reason as to why some people were affected and others weren’t.

P.S. I hope you feel better soon, the flu is NO fun.

I have only been to the movies once by myself too. I don’t like going by myself either..

My sister saw this movie too and she was disappointed - she said she should have seen Zohan. I haven’t been to the movies by myself in a very long time - hmmm …. perhaps i will do that … one matinee when kids are all in school then, I can eat a whole bag of M&M’s to myself.
