Weekend movies

Watched "The Tourist" today... it was not nearly as thrilling as I was expecting. The pacing was quite slow, and the 'surprise' ending could be seen from about 1/3 through the movie. Still, the costumes were lovely, and the scenery was nice. And Johnny Depp has an interesting prancing run. As Mike said, it wasn't an action movie or a thriller...it was really a chic-flick with a well-edited trailer. Next we watched "Jule and Julia"... loved the Julia Child scenes, which were rudely interrupted by the Julie blogger chick. Very nearly made me want to go upstairs and debone a duck or make beef stew. Will never make an aspic though. Blech.
