Seeing a Bad Movie to Cure Cabin Fever

The following actors and actresses are quite talented and have appeared in some excellent movies:
  • Ben Stiller
  • Robert DeNiro
  • Barbra Streisand
  • Blythe Danner
  • Owen Wilson
  • Jessica Alba
  • Laura Dern
However, this all-star cast can not make a stupid  movie good.  I would never punch out my father-in-law as was done in this fim which was #1 at the box office last weekend.  What often happens is that a movie does well when it is first released, but then when word gets around that it is terrible, the box office receipts go down dramatically.  Karen, Lee and I were the only three people in the audience for the afternoon showing.  The College Point Multiplex only charges $6 all day Tuesday, but there were very few people in the entire complex.  Perhaps people were still digging out after the snowstorm.

We have seen 3 movies in the last 5 days.  It is nice to have the week off between Christmas and New Years, but it seems there is either very cold weather, a snowstorm or both to put a damper on this vacation.  I just hate sitting home!
