Sure
John... That was a quote i got from him plugging his movie. This green
is a nice military-like color. Ok I'll admit it I forked over $8 to see
The Marine. A lot of people know I don't like action movies I bet I
could count all the action movies I've seen on 1 or 2 hands. I think. I
can't even remember all the ones I've seen. I know I've seen 2 Batman
movies and Judge Dredd. As I've gotten older I've tried to be more open
minded. I hate when people tell you, "You just didn't give (artist,
group, genre, movie, song, show) a chance." So now I think everything
deserves a chance, or most everything. If I didn't give wrestling a
chance I wouldn't be writing this blog.
First off I
couldn't find play times and locations. The most obvious to look on the
web was the WWE site, and after watching Cena on the talk show circuit.
I still could not find the price of a ticket. Fandango is no help
either. I hate that automated thing. Ok so before I go I made a choice
not to wear one of my Cena shirts because it'd just look dumb. Actually I
got that advice from my dad when he told me not to wear a No Doubt
shirt while I was trying to buy No Doubt concert tickets. I would looked
like that guy we saw decked out in Lakers gear reading a sports page
waiting for Laker tickets in the No Doubt line. I didn't want to show up
to the box office wearing a Cena shirt and the ticket vendor looks at
my shirt and says something like "One for The Marine right?". That
would've been so embarrassing. Your allegiance for Cena can only go so
far. I can't believe I was using advice from my dad. I also had the idea
that I might run into somebody I knew from high school and that they
would see me go to see The Marine. I was really considering wearing a
disguise, but I didn't know what my disguise would look like or consist
of. But I chucked that idea too.
Since
Cena's popularity is declining and lies mostly with women and little
kids under 9. I figured this would be like Pokemon #1 all over again
with lots of screaming kids. But luckily when I got inside the theatre
there was hardly nobody there. There was a bout 30 people in total and
like 1 or 2 little kids.
Well about
the actual movie, the beginning of the movie was good well up until the
part when John and his wife were at the gas station. I mean he survived
so many impossible things; like a gas station fire, being shot at in a
car with no windshield, falling out of an exploding car into a swamp,
being in more things that exploded, and caught on fire. I kept thinking
"could this really happen?". There were a few inaccuracies I noticed.
They are watching tv and the station's call letters begin with a "K",
but the movie takes place in South Carolina. And I didn't understand the
timeline of this movie. I mean did all of this happen in one day? I
mean after the kidnapping of his wife. The acting wasn't bad it was the
plot that got me. But I liked it a little for the pure enjoyment of
watching Cena on the big screen. The end was really impossible he went
in the water to retrieve his wife who was handcuffed to a bar in a Mac
truck. He saved her by pulling the bar off the truck, and he was giving
her mouth-to-mouth I was thinking "he is pressing way too hard he is
going to break her ribs." I liked at the end that they played a Cena
song during the credits. But I hated that slo-mo action thing with the
bullets and stuff that just sucked.
When I got
out of the movie some people were talking about some guy said it was a
good movie if it was on DVD and I think he is partially right. I didn't
talk to anybody because I really had to use the bathroom. (should I have
written the bathroom part?)*stares blankly.*
