So Who Saw What Last Week? (me - The Expendables 2: B-, Hick: C+, Total Recall (2012): C-)

Exp. 2: Mostly because it exceeded my low expectations. A few insane action moments, some laughs, and a shame that JCVD didnt get to do more. I really think he should get a good role.

Hick: promising first half, solid performances, good dialogue, but 2nd half turns nasty, unlikable.

Total Recall: Lackluster effort all around. Like no one involved cared at all.

Saw a Cubs/Astros day game: A- nice seats, perfect weather, and a win
