Sing a Song

In a previous post I talked about things I Love. One of them was what movies I love. Since then I have seen a few more movies. I would have to add 'Iron Man' and 'Incredible Hulk' to the list. What can I say I love a could hero and speaking of hero's, how about Mr. Zac Efron, no I didn't scream when he took his shirt off... really I prefer Robert Downey Jr. or Mr. Ed Norton.



On Monday night I went to the late night showing of 'High School Musical' ...Please stop laughing....My friend Suz, whom I adore, invited me and she can be quite convincing. Fun is what she is about.



Rachel and Emily were also with us and they too are about fun. I have to say the movie theater was an icebox. I did bring my gloves luckily. It was late and I was tired.... { Ok, I just saw a commercial for 'Quantum Solace' I need to take a few deep breaths}

You can have a moment if you need one.............

So back to the subject 'High School Musical'. I have not seen the previous two, imagine that. I don't know the back story, but I think I can put the major pieces together if I try. The story was pretty predictable, who knew? Anyway, I have to say the dancing was quite good and the singing was okay. The acting was par for a musical. I also saw 'Mama Mia' this summer and was disappointed in the singing. This was much better.

I have to go back to when I was in third grade; "Grease was the word that you heard...."This movie was also about high school. It had some questionable content. My mom would not let us see it, but it was all the rage at school. Every talent show had a number from 'Grease' in it. I learned all the songs during lunch. Plus they were on the radio. I loved singing them as a kid. I was unaware of what went on in the movie, naive, yes. To compare the two might not be fair, although I think it is the same tweens it is aimed at. I would definitely recommend this one for the younger set, no language, no skin, no violence and one little kiss. I do think seeing it at home would be just fine, wait for the DVD.

What movies have you seen lately, that you could recommend? I love a good story.

Going out with the girls, priceless!
