Away We Go

Postal Grunt

This movie opened in the KC area this weekend in a limited showing schedule in about four theatres. Mrs PG and I saw it this afternoon at one of the area's "art houses", the Glenwood Theatre. It's a good enough movie that makes you forget the lack of explosions, computer graphics, and glorified gore. I'd suggest that it may be best called a movie for grown ups.

Peace, good beer and barbecue!

I saw it today - sjb 21:03:30 06/27/09 (0)
and was puzzled by the vitriol in many of the reviews (claiming that the either/both the film makers and character's were self important, precious and came across like they were better than everyone else).

I didn't see it that way at all.

I thought it was funny and poignant and heartfelt with moments of beautiful sadness (like in the club in Montreal).

It was by far my favorite Sam Mendes effort (Dave Eggers too).
