Out to a Movie with Aya

[anam_moon]

Got together with my friend Aya on Saturday night. First time I've seen her since she left for Brazil right after the New Year. Found out she's moving to Oakland on the 15th. We went to the Union City theatre and saw "Godsend." It was okay, but I got really annoyed by how jumpy they tried to make everything. Almost every other scene was something trying to make you jump and get wound up. It wasn't even really anything scary. It would be something like Greg Kinnear's character sitting in the car and some gal he was just talking to would come over and pound on his window. You'd end up with your heart racing, thinking,"Why the heck am I freaked out?! This isn't even really that scary!" It got old pretty quick. It just seemed like cheap tactics to make the story more intense than it really was. It was great getting to see Aya though. I'm going to try to get together for lunch with her before she moves to Oakland.
