Tropic Thunder

Just a quickie post to mention that we went to see Tropic Thunder at Cobble Hill Cinema, which is about nine or ten (short) blocks south of us. It's a cool little four or five screen movie theatre, with some nice, old-fashioned trappings. The non-stadium seating is almost weird though. Being so used to stadium seating, it seemed weird at first, but kind of nostalgic, to have all the seats basically on a flat floor, with the screen rising above us. It was a good movie experience, and we'll definitely see more shows there, especially with their $6.50 Tuesday and Thursday shows.

Tropic Thunder itself was quite funny. A good cast, with a lot of good gags. Definitely a ben Stiller style movie though, so be sure you like his comedy style. Stand-out performance: Tom Cruise. Awesome makeup and hilarious character work.
