Despite our love for the Netflix entity and our general tendency to avoid midtown on weekends, Chris and I caught two movies this weeekend: Resident Evil: Apocalypse and Garden State. The first was really, really bad. It was almost so bad it was good, like Equilibrium (which was at least so bad it was funny), but Resident Evil wasn’t bad enough to be good - it was just plain bad.

Garden State, on the other hand, was a real treat. I understand why people told me that I’d like it if I liked Lost in Translation (which I did), although Chris actually liked it more. We’ll definitely be seeing it again, either way.
