April - the rest of the month

Since Film Fest is the first weekend of the month I managed to see several more movies before April was over.

35 - Conflicts & Resolutions Shorts (4/11) - This was a short-film program at the Atlanta Film Festival (because I just hadn't had enough of festivals, apparently). Although I usually avoid short film programs like the plague, my friend Chuck directed one of the films so I managed to man up and actually ended up enjoying it.

36 - The Ruins (4/12) - Wanted to like both the book & the movie better than I did. Fairly creepy but neither grabbed me like I wanted them to.

37 - The Bank Job (4/13) - Jason Statham in a heist movie with a script that didn't suck. Usually his heist movies work out that way - it's weird. Dug it.

38 - Comedy Shorts (4/15) - Another Atlanta Film Festival shorts program with another movie by my friend Chuck. This one definitely had some duds, but it had a few gems as well.

39 - Forbidden Kingdom (4/20) - I actually had to go look this one up on IMDB to remember what it was, so obviously it didn't make much of an impression. But to be fair, April was a tough month to stand out in with me.

40 - Baby Mama (4/25) - Very funny.

41 - Tuya's Wedding (4/27) - A very slow-paced movie from somewhere in Asia. And I mean slow. Really, really slooooow.

And that's it for April, at last. Whew.
