Movies

Movies i've watched in the last few days...first is "The Time Travelers Wife" kind of a chick flick but I read the book last year and wanted to check it out. Ultimately it's a great story..a bit odd but definitely a change from the typical movies made over and over...you know, the underdog athlete, the action flick, or the superhero comic movies. I found it creepy that the time traveler Henry would just randomly show up in a meadow to visit a 6 year old(his future wife), but he is in his forties when he travels..lol. It eventually makes sense as the story progesses. I suggest reading the book first but definitely check out one of the two. I also watched "Bourne Ultimatum" which is nothing new..one of my favorites i've seen like 30 times. Thirdly, I probably would not recommend is "The Grizzly Man." lol....Its a documentary about Tim Treadwell who spent 13 summers in Alaska roaming with bears! He talks with the bears.."hi there big guy, I love you." lol...The best thing about it is he spends that time unarmed. Typical environmentalists...the story made headline news in 2003 when he and his girlfriend died from a Grizzly attack! Shocking, huh? Not so much. Lastly, a movie I am not typically interested in b/c it's the same tear jerking story..."The Blindside." I thought I would view it b/c honestly, i'll probably watch anything based on a true story, like American Haunting(hate those movies) but found out it was based on a true story and somewhat enjoyed it. Anyways, "The Blindside" was extremely good! Definitely recommend it. It really makes you appreciate what you have. So, those were my latest viewings.
