Yesterday, I decided to check out a film, that I kept hearing positive reviews of. Every local reviewer and most national reviews were all positive. The only negative review was from the liberal Chicago Tribune. So, it was time to go check out "W." I mean matinees are only $5.25. Right? Well, not any more. As of last week, the local theater raised the admission prices to $7.25 for a matinee and $9 for the full price. That was to say the least was a shock. I don't see movies (t the theater) very often, and was annoyed at this new price. I was further annoyed, when I set down in my seat, at 1:18 for the 1:20 start time, only to see the advertisements to stop and no film or even the movie previews for over 10 minutes, because the projectionist was slow at getting the film loaded and started. I have to pay extra, but get worse service. I guess they don't value my time.
Once the film was finally started, it was entertaining. I wouldn't say funny necessarily, but it was entertaining. W.'s brother Jeb Bush is only mentioned by name, except for one time, when a 15-year old Jeb comes home drunk with his older brother George who had just been accepted into Harvard for his post graduate education.
Through out the movie we see the tension between Jr. and Sr. It is the older George's desire for Jeb to be President, and for W. to do whatever he does. In the movie you see W. blame George's loss to Bill Clinton on the fact that his father didn't go into Baghdad and remove Sudam Hussein from power. Over all, the film was very well balanced and appears to have had some influence from W. himself, as some things could have only come from his memories.
