A Tale of Two Movies

Written by Dean Young | Jan 23, 2012 11:00:00 AM

For the first time in many years I got to the movies twice over the weekend - what a contrast!! One was really funny, one was really stink.

'Sione's 2' was again a light hearted funny and entertaining watch which really appealed to my humour.

I was taken back to my teenage years - great to see people laughing at themselves.  Maybe not quite up to the original - but still worth a watch.

'Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy' however was a different story.  I didn't walk out (as I said to my 16 year old daughter she could do if she was bored) but I was very close about five times.  The ice cream we had was the highlight.

I can honestly say at no time did I get a real handle on the story line; who were the baddies and who were the goodies, or when it would end …… The end couldn't come quick enough.

It was dead boring and I would much rather have stayed at home watching Rafa playing in the 4th round of the Australian Open… much more drama.

Have you seen any good movies lately?
