Movie catch up time!
69) Street Fighter - A rather hokey, yet entertaining, film adaptation of the popular video game. I know fans of the game have issue with the movie, but I found it to be an enjoyable time. Or as Dave said "it's a good bad movie". Yes, there is not a lot of fighting in the film itself (an error MK rectified). But I liked the story and I feel they brought a majority of the characters to a decent representation on film. And Raul Julia totally steals the movie as General Bison.
70) Iron Man 3 - Went and saw the 9 PM showing on Thursday with Dave. I really enjoyed it. Much better than the second, and on par with the first. I had a friend say they enjoyed it more than The Avengers. It has a great story, and lots of action. For an 120 minute film, it didn't drag at all for me. I really love Robert Downey Jr as Tony Stark. And the rest of the cast ain't to bad either. I might actually have to get around to adding the Marvel movies to my BR collection.
71) Frequency - Elizabeth and I had a date night Friday, and this was the movie that was pulled from the bowl. It's also a movie from my "40 before 40" list, and one of the few that I haven't seen myself. Which after watching, I'm surprised I hadn't! especially since I'm pretty sure I've owned the DVD since my Blockbuster Video days. I loved it. It has an excellent and different use of the time travel story, and I love how it shows how one small change effects everything. It has great suspense to it, and I really enjoyed the father/son aspect of the storytelling. One most definely worth seeking out if you haven't seen it.
