Southpaw

TGI Fridays. Restaurants. I think they came from the US originally. They do a great line in food, wicked bar staff (Cocktail/Coyote Ugly kinda bottle tricks), and amazing cocktails.

We went there before we went the cinema.

Too see what movie?

Any good.

Yeah, how was it ? Or should we wait for finti to trash it ?

I wrote a review in the Movie section.

But briefly, I liked it apart from the re-arrangement of the London geography which was very annoying. I wonder if they had planning permission to move Tower Bridge 2 miles!!! Also, the effects for the scorpion monster were terrible.

We both enjoyed it as a film, though I'd say it wasn't as good as the first one.

Ah, the usual sequel problem.

I liked Mummy so I think im gonna like this one, the critics trashed that is always a good sign for my taste. They only like French and Italian movies anyway and those film sucks big time. Gonna see Mummy returns on Friday. I wont trash it, promise 😈

Yeah..pretty much. And it wasn't scary like the first one either.

I didn't think the first one was scary.

Well...I'm a weenie.

Oh, I loved the film, I just hated the way some of the effects looked cartoonish.

I didn't like the first one so this time I refuse to go anywhere near the cinema!

RC is right about the Scorpion monster..that was a real let down..I really wish that had done something different.

I liked the idea of the monster, it was the execution I didn't like. Not what I would expect from such a high profile film...

Well, it's finally gone off topic, unless the scorpion was left handed. If so, let me know and I'll reopen after verification.

No..I wouldn't kill anyone at TGI's..might damage their flair.
