Spit Takes

Obligatory. You know? I’m not sure I’ve ever actually spit out a drink after something amusing. I’ve had that, where you’re laughing so hard and your mouth is full of beer… you know you’ll spit if you can’t control yourself. But I don’t think I’ve ever actually done a spit take. Maybe it just happens in movies.

DVD Report – January 25th

RED leads the pack of this week’s mediocre films on DVD, along with the third entry in Sweden’s popular Millennium series, The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest. The only movie which everyone seemed to have the same opinion on this week was Saw 3D which racked up universally negative scores at Criticker.

After trading in his professional past as a black-ops CIA agent for a new identity, Frank Moses (Bruce Willis) is basking in normalcy. But he’s forced to return to old habits when a shadowy assassin puts a target on his back and goes after the woman (Mary-Louise Parker) he loves. Morgan Freeman, Helen Mirren and John Malkovich co-star as former members of Moses’s team who reluctantly reassemble to save his life. Red @ Amazon
