Awesomenesss

Just got back a little while ago from seeing Angels and Demons. It was really good, a lot better than the Da Vinci code i think. It was quite graphic with a lot of people burning and being branded and such. Not really a lot of blood but just a lot of unusual ways to die. Tom Hanks was great as usual, his wit and charm commanding the stage. The plot line had a lot of twists in it, and basically you hate the wrong people the entire movie. I don't feel too bad giving away stuff because this movie did come out like 4 months ago so most people reading this probably already saw the movie (if they care that much). The guy that plays Bootstrap Bill in Pirates of the Caribbean (Stellan Skarsgard) played this really uptight head of the Vatican security. Personally i found it weird to see him without starfish and barnacles all over his face. This movie just felt a lot more real and...dangerous, i guess than the Da Vinci code. This is perhaps because the Da Vinci code was mostly just about trying to solve a puzzle, no one was really in great danger, not compared to in this movie at least. The Pope was dead at the beginning of the movie but other important figures (4 cardinals) and various members of the Vatican were in danger throughout the movie making it more action packed and definitely more suspenseful. The architecture was beautiful as well. I realize that most of it must have been re-created for the movie but the statues and areas of the church and the Sistine Chapel and St.Peter's Square were all very beautiful and makes me want to visit Rome so bad! Im sure this is super boring to those of you who have already seen the movie but if youre still reading this then this next tidbit is kind of funny. On my way back from the movie i walked by a guy riding his skateboard up a hill and just as i passed him he took a huge fall, flat on his face and sent his skateboard flying in the other direction down the hill. It was hilarious, and then he stands up and turns to me and is like "im way to drunk to be riding a skateboard!" It was pretty comical, i mean this guy went down hard and his skateboard went flying, but luckily his friend was able to catch it for him. So that was completely unrelated but i thought was worth sharing. But all in all i had a very fun night and i though the movie was great, just let me say Ewan McGregor played a great part, he was all beloved and noble..and then he broke my heart. Those of you who have yet to see it will just have to watch and find out. So i will definitely be buying this when it comes out on DVD, hopefully by christmas!!!
