I've had the last week off work as part of the annual birthday/Thanksgiving celebration. During the week, we did a lot of shopping, turkey eating, and football/movie watching. Yes, an outing late in the day (after most of the crowds had thinned) did happen on Black Friday.
In the movie category, I wanted to dash out to see Catching Fire immediately, but the sis wanted to see Gravity. Since I wanted to see it too in the theatre, and since it had already left a number of them, we decided to see that last Saturday.
( Gravity )
While Gravity was a mixed bag for me, I'm glad that I saw it and that I saw it in the theatre. The large screen and 3D made the experience more immersive, and consequently, the stakes felt higher and the tension was ratcheted up more than it would have been watching at home.
