Grey Tuesday

Back to school after memorial day weekend. Not much happened during my weekend, but it was nice to have an extra day to relax from school. I'm kinda bummed that I didn't get the chance to watch the new Indy. Sooner or later I'll come around and watch it.
On the other hand, I watched three movies which were meah.

The Science of Sleep featuring Gael GarcĂ­a Bernal, is about a dude who confuses his dreams/imagination with reality. Don't want to give too much away but that's basically what the movie is about. You'd have to watch it to understand what how he confuses his imagination with reality. I thought it was a weird movie, a really weird movie. I was confused more than 50% of the time and the ending still leaves you puzzled. I'd give it a 6 out of 10.

Diary of the Dead is about a group of college students who are trying to make a film and a zombie breakout happens to interrupt it. So the students try to head home coming across obstacles blah blah blah. It's shot Cloverfield style so it had a good idea going. The acting was very cheesy and it seemed that the characters had no logic whatsoever. The whole point of the movie is that people are so drawn to what is in the media. You don't act, you only watch. I thought this movie was lame. 4.5 out of 10.

Ended off the streak of mediocre movies with 40 Year Old Virgin. I've watched it multiple times but Tina hasn't seen it. It's about a 40 year old virgin trying to get laid. It's funny and I like it. 9.5 out of 10.
