![Saw The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare which is based on a true story. It was excellent!
There was action, humor, and solid character development. Also, I love a good tale about a band of misfits making a great team!
The cast was the largest gathering of symmetrical faces I’ve seen in a hot minute. Wouldn’t kick any of them out of bed for eating crackers.
I hope you have the Sunday you need, Crew! I love you!!!

I didn’t have high expectations for this film, and it flew right by them. With a really strong soundtrack (John Waite, Guns N’ Roses, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, the Scorpions, Roy Orbison) and a lovable cast, this movie is destined to be a cult classic. It explores what makes us human while still being light-hearted and funny. I thought Nicholas Hoult did a great job of running like a zombie as R (for Romeo?). Also, he has gorgeous eyes. He’s officially the best-looking zombie…..um, ever? Dave Franco was just enough of a jackass that on the off chance his brain does get eaten, no one will really mind. Rob Corddry was so cute, I wanted to put him in my pocket and Teresa Palmer as Julie was a much more likable damsel in distress than oh, say, Kristen Stewart. I think it was the gun; she didn’t seem all that distressed.
In knitting news, there is a cable sweater prominently worn by Teresa Palmer. I like the 3/4 length sleeves and the cable pattern, but I wasn’t crazy about the neckline or the color.
Nevertheless, I was impressed with how it held its shape while sopping wet and did I mention I like the cable pattern?

I need to look up a closer view of that sweater, it looks comfy! I’m not really interested in this movie (although the soundtrack does sound stellar!), I also think that it is trying to be a cult classic which always irks me.
hmm. trying to be a cult classic. that’s interesting. I did realize after the fact that they were making obvious Romeo and Juliet references, and I don’t think they would mind sucking in most of the Twilighters, but I don’t know if they were trying for mainstream blockbuster and will settle for cult classic or if you’re right and that is what they were shooting for. hmmm. either way, I enjoyed it, but The Husband wasn’t that big of a fan, so maybe, it will just join the ranks of the Twilight movies.
