I am an L...A...P...D...agent...!
Okay, so it might not be THE summer movie to see, and the idea of paying money for a Keanu film is a little strange, but I wanted to put the word out to Sac Summer Movie folks that Tim and I are planning to check out "Street Kings" this Saturday, April 12th, at the 1:30pm show at the Arden Fair theater (that's the mall theater, not Century). We want to get that matinee price happening because...well, it's a Keanu movie. But it does have a promising writer and great supporting cast. And I'm officially trying to keep my summer promise to myself to NOT pay attention to the Tomatometer at Rotten Tomatoes, as I normally do religiously, and just do it the old-fashioned way and take my chances (within reason).
So we're taking a gamble on this one, so we'll understand if no one else wants to jump on the same grenade. But if you have nothing better going on Saturday afternoon and want to join us, please consider yourselves invited. We'll be there, so just drop by the mall (wear your Kevlar and change out your rims for the cheap ones) and grab a ticket and join us for an L.A. cop saga starring Ted Theodore Logan, Johnny Storm, House M.D. and Idi Amin! Hey, and there's some babe in a bikini on the poster. That's got to count for something, right?
Excellent!

Oh, man, I would love to join you guys, but unfortunately I'm in DC at the moment until May 9th or so. Oh, boo.
I think it was Hugh Laurie that sold me on that one...

I'd like to join you gys, too, but I'm in Chicago.
Seriously.
I'm glad you're paying only matinee price. Me, I'd wait 'til the two dollar theater up in Buffalo Grove (and DOLLAR Tuesdays! Woo!).
It's actually a pretty decent theater complex, only a few years old... but there's too many theaters around here (Deer Park 16, AMC 18, Muvico 18, Leow's 16... see a pattern?) and they went for two bucks. Love it!
Though I do want to see Hugh Laurie play a cop...

So, how was the movie? Mrs. Jill and I usually wait for the half dollar show. You must buy at least three tickets on Monday at my favorite Detroit-area theatre for that price, so I embarrass the wife and give the extra ticket to a confused stranger.
