Two Must See Movies

Slumdog Millionaire & The Wrestler

I don’t know how the weather was in your part of the country, but in New Jersey we battled snow, sleet, and freezing rain. It put a damper on our weekend, as we had plans to grab drinks with Papa from RSD in New York, as well as a Christmas bash with some old frat buddies. Both were canceled do to weather.

Instead of crying about the weather I used it as an excuse to take a much needed break from partying and catch a couple movies. The two movies I saw both get two thumbs way up.

Slumdog Millionaire

This movie, by Trainspotting director Danny Boyle, was quite frankly exhilarating to watch. The story, the visuals, the soundtrack, the hot Indian actress and the acting made this movie come alive on screen in a way I haven’t experienced in a long time. Go see this movie!

The Wrestler

I’ve been waiting for this movie for awhile and I had finally had the chance to see it this weekend. It did not disappoint. It was extra powerful because I’ve read the countless true stories of washed up wrestlers dropping like flies.

The movie plays like a more intense Rocky. Plus, Marisa Tomei plays a stripper who struts around naked half the film. Mickey Rourke will win an Oscar for this movie. He was brilliant.
