Downturned Thumb
20Nov2004 Filed under: Pop VulturaWow, it’s rare that I go see a comedy that is unable to make me laugh once. I think I chucked twice at Napolean Dynamite, but that was it. I wanted to laugh. I paid money to laugh! And yet, laugh I did not.
I think I will go see Kinsey tonight to compensate for this disappointing movie experience.

Oh, I saw Napoleon Dynamite tonight too but I definitely laughed more than once…maybe it was easier for me to laugh knowing that I didn’t pay full price for my ticket? Oh well.

THANK YOU! I didn’t enjoy it either, but I was beginning to fear I was the only one.

Let us know how Kinsey is…
I was wondering about Napolean Dynamite. Since getting to movies is a tricky thing with Amira now, it’s good to know to skip that one.

The only thing I found interesting about the movie: what a cutie Napolean is in real life.

Speaking of movies: Kevin and I were either way too young to appreciate “Sideways,” or I am just not into depressing movies.

Curious about your take on Kinsey . . . maybe I was just too tired, but I left underwhelmed.

I really enjoyed Kinsey, although I was also a little overwhelmed. I chalked this up to my over-exitement to see the flick.
