Movies: Epic

not bad, but not outstanding.

If you have rugrats, they'll enjoy it (though the slightly older ones). There are a number of pretty violent battles and deaths for a kid flick.

My main problem was that the male 'hero' was a selfish, immature, jerk. And well, acted liked a 6 year old basically. And he was supposto be 16/18ish? What in the world did the girl see in him? Utterly nothing. And really, no chemistry. I'm afraid I liked the mentor character a lot more.

Wait for video unless you've got kids wanting to see it.

Movies: Fast & Furious 6

As it says: Fast & Furious! Also fun and entertaining. A definite summer movie - where it's thrills, chases and improbable physics (shut up brain!) Entirely enjoyable, and over the top? Oh yea! And even better - foreign locals: Moscow & LONDON!!! WHEEEEEEE! Made MY day :) They are also in several other countries, but not as recognizable. Cars doing impossible things, lots of jokes, wrecked cars, some good physical fights, a few gun battles, and more cars doing impossible things, along with a tank and a plane.

Funnily, both reviews I read, both reviewers basically said, hell, it had a simple plot, physics were a problem, but I enjoyed it anyway.

worth seeing - Yep!
