Okay, last weekend I took Friday off and we had Monday off for the 4th of July. I watched this on Friday, the first showing of the morning like I normally do. All the old people were out for this one. They were actually more entertaining than the movie. Before the movie even started after the previews the screen stopped. No big deal, we’ve all had this happen before. We wait about a minute and this old lady goes its stopped (duh we can see that). Then she cranes her head forward to see if she can see anybody up in the booth. Then she says well do they know it has stopped? No one answers. She gets out of her seat and walks out of the theatre door and yells hey fellas do you know the movie has stopped? And then comes back to her seat and very loudly says they did not know it stopped. Okay.

Then the lights dim and the movie starts when two more old people come into the theatre and stop near the door to look for seats. This one lady goes to a row and did not see a lady sitting in the aisle seat and says excuse me, I did not see you and asks if there are seats in that aisle open which there were and she goes in and waves to her husband and says there a seat here, come on. He still stands there looking at the screen I thought. Then the lady who went to yell at the boy asks can you see her do you need some help to get to your seat? To which he yells I can’t see where she is and the lady gets out of her seat and says here you go and takes him to where she was and then gets back to her seat.

Now we all go back to watching the beginning of the movie. It wasn’t all that bad I guess. I guess I was just hoping for more out of it then what I got. Cruise is a secret spy who gave up his life to do this particular job in the agency when they decide he is no longer needed and try to off him. Diaz is this bumbling female who gets caught up in the middle of it all and obviously they end up falling for each other, yada, yada, yada. You get the idea.
