The Big Screen

I don’t really enjoy going to the movies.  I don’t know why this is so, and when I haven’t gone for a long enough time I seem to convince myself that I will in fact enjoy it….and I don’t (shocker).  BUT! This past weekend was an exception.  CP and I went to see Argo and it was fantastic.  Even though it had gotten good reviews, I wasn’t relying on those because The Master also earned high praise and it was awful in my opinion (strong acting but terrible pace and story line).  This time, however, the thumbs up for Argo are well deserved. The cast is an all-star line-up and the story was really captivating.  It’s based on a real CIA mission and while I’m sure there were several “Hollywood effect” moments, it is still neat to know that it was based on actual events in the 1970s. 

If you’re looking for a solid film that will hold your attention with a strong plot and entertaining acting, go check it out!  One of my favorite parts is how the movie got its title......
