I read somewhere on Twitter that 7 year olds have never read an actual newspaper.

Just got my MoviePass in the mail last night, so I'm going to see this film tonight.
I loved "All The President's Men", and I know this is a different story, but I have high hopes.

It was really decent.
Katherine Graham was a trailblazer.
:bounce:
I had to pay to get in because I couldn't activate my MoviePass, but Tuesday is $5 all day.
Something about the fucking wi-fi.
Went outside for a smoke, decided to try again, activated my card, and stayed for the 10:05 showing
of The 15:17 To Paris. That movie was nothing special, and yeah, you can tell the lead characters ARE NOT ACTORS.
2 night time movies for a total cost of $5 and 5 hours.
Probably going Saturday to Deer Park to see Phantom Thread before that disappears from the theaters.
All in all, it was better than watching the fucking Olympics...

Totally.
Virtually no R-rated language and the only violence was the 3 guys pistol whipping a terrorist with an AK-47.
The acting and script weren't very good, but it was free, and the Europe scenes were nicely filmed.

Yeah, it's not deep or anything.
It's basically a tale of a ADD try-hard kid wanting to make a difference in the world, and finally doing it.
A little over the top with the Christian mom thing, but it's a true story and it has the real people (not the moms),
so it must have been true to what actually happened.
There are far more offensive messages to send a kid in a movie.
Unless you hate the military.
:shock:
