MIAMI VICE and nachos and salsa and cheese

Pauline and myself went to see Miami Vice yesterday.
Have you noticed in the UGC that when you get nachos you get fake melted cheese and fake salsa now. I know obviously (from time working in a cinema), that the melted cheese was never the best, but now they are not even trying to fake it. Instead they come in they little airplane food style tubs (the type you get that teeny tiny mineral water sample in).
Not only that but you have to pay extra for them. 70 cents each.
Do you remember they used to scoop the salsa and cheese on.
The salsa now tastes like jam.
The standards are falling. Big time!!
When we went to see The Break Up, the ice machine wasnt working. Bear in mind it was one of the recent freakishly hot days.
No ice!!!!
I asked at the counter could I get a discount, and he looked at me as if I was mad.
(Got the discount in the end).
Yeah, anywho, Miami Vice wasnt the best, and pretty much everybody I know whos seen it (which is most people, because the trailer was one of the coolest trailers ever!!!) felt the same.
I felt it was ok. Colin Farrell was less bad than usual. (That was like some dialogue in the film by the way).
He was give a few more things to say, than in other films he has been in recently. I've noticed it looks like directors cut his dialogue down to a minimun, or at least very very short bites. He never has more than 3-4 lines at a time.
The film looks really cool, lots of speedboat shots which I think the crowd liked.
But at the end of the day the whole film is shot on digital...just like BalconyTV.
But we are never 2 and a half hours long!!!
Its ok though.
3 stars.
You really wanted a movie review didnt you.
We you got it.
Internal monolgue getting the better of me again.
