The theater advertised that the movie was at 7, but nope. It was cancelled for a special event. We decided to go see Sherlock Holmes instead. Wasn’t something I had planned on seeing in the theater and in a way I feel like I still haven’t seen it all. The theater was a descent size, but the rows flanking the sides of the theater were only 4 deep and there were 5 of us. We wanted to sit together of course, but even all of the center rows, while 8 deep, didn’t have 5 together until the 4th row from the front.
It was hard to take the whole movie in from that close. Almost got motion sickness at one point.
The experience reminded me of a movie theater in Indy (that has since closed) that had video chairs in the front row. You know the ones; like legless chairs that rock. We got stuck in those once. The movie we saw then was “River Wild.” Not only were we in the front row, but the place required a 2 drink minimum (it was a 21 & over bar ~ the only theater I went to on weekends ~ no annoying teens, just annoying drunkards). So, we felt waterlogged AND had a crick in our necks too.
The movie was entertaining. Can’t go too terribly wrong with Jude Law, Robert Downey Jr., and Guy Ritchie.
