Saw this one over the weekend with my lady. We both enjoyed it but I was a bit underwhelmed.
It was a good story, well written and well acted but I guess I just wanted/expected something more along the lines of "the royal tenenbaums" and this was more straightforward.
regardless, its a good film, just not what I was expecting which translates to: I'll love it more when I see it again on DVD knowing what to expect.
Off topic:
we get to the theatre before the previews and there is one row of loud 20 somethings behind us, so we sit closer to the middle of the (otherwise empty) theatre in an attempt to
avoid possible problems.
:wat: a few minutes later a group of 40 somethings come in and sit in the seats DIRECTLY in front of us. so, I get all huffy to myself and move down a few seats to the right. A few other people come in and the previews start.
:| Then 2 big fatass [strikeout:1us35u08]cows[/strikeout:1us35u08] women sit down directly behind me and proceed to talk/breathe loudly through the previews....ok.
:mrgreen: movie starts, still talking. labored breathing.
then I hear a bag of candy(?) opening and I hear at least one of them slurping on it loudly. then a loud sickly sounding *COUGH* then a disgusting *SNORT*, *COUGH*. more loud talking.
repeat all
:x we are now 5 minutes into the movie - I lean over and tell my girlfriend I have to move. she gets huffy because she has carried her female survival pack (reallllly big purse) and coat and popcorn, soda and doesnt want to move now.
:-x so, I get up and move back to the left behind the 40 somethings and begin to watch the film.
:smile: not 2 minutes later the fatties get up and leave the theatre because the movie isnt funny.
I move back.
:?: Normally I ask people to be quiet or yell at teens but how do you handle 2 obese black women who carry themselves like farm animals?

P.S. for those that need visual aides this was more or less what happened:
