Across The Universe

I'm home sick today (and hopefully not tomorrow) and I haven't had a chance to watch Across the Universe yet, even though MJ loaned me the DVD as soon as I showed interest. I enjoyed the music, but I don't think I've seen a movie quite this weird for a long time. I kept trying to read too much into the plot; took awhile to pick out the main characters and relations (did I mention that my ability to focus is a bit off too).

Some fun choreography, and some interesting interpretations of the Beatles music, but it didn't quite flow as smoothly as I'd have wanted.

I wondered how much you would like that movie. It took me a couple viewing to really like it, but I think it's one of my favorites now :)

Yeah I wasn't too impressed by that movie, at least not as impressed as I wanted to be. Then again, i only made it through the first half before it was paused indefinitely so I could go take care of a sad baby.

I think I would like it better on a second viewing. It took watching all the 2nd DVD to figure out what the director was trying to do. That and with a second showing, I might actually be alert.
