Every summer the big blockbusters come out and they get put into multiple theaters in the multiplexes so that start times can be every hour. Result is fewer movies playing. And then, these summer movies are traditionally loud and mindless. Not that I am totally against summer type movies, they can be well done. But although I saw Ironman and enjoyed it for what it is, I just cannot bring myself to see another Hulk. Get Smart looked like it would be good, but now the reviews are mixed to negative. The more adult fare is not at any local convenient multiplex this time of year.
Nevertheless, I saw Redbelt a few weeks ago and the Norwegian Reprise yesterday. So at the margins, there are those movies that are not comic book adaptations.
