Kung-Fu Hustle
Went out to the movies last night with Firda and Joe (a friend from back home who came up to Waterloo for the day). We decided to go see "Kung-Fu Hustle" which I had heard very little about, other than that it was a comedic send-up of Kung-Fu movies.
It was hillarious. If you find any enjoyment in martial arts movies you should go and see this. It has great action scenes, humourous moments and there is even a plot. The plot isn't the greatest or most innovative but in most Kung-Fu movies it secondary to the fight scenes, which are fantastic to watch. As expected the fighting has a fantasy element thrown in with it, where the characters do things that aren't humanly possible, but for me that was the coolest part. It was like watching a superhero Kung-Fu movie.
Go out and see it. It's was definitely worth the 10 dollars to see it in the theatre. Now I should sit down and watch my copy of Shaolin Soccer, which is from the same director.
April Snow brings May Woe
It's spring in Waterloo but it doesn't feel like it. In the past two weeks we've seen spring weather (temperature: low teens Celsius) which then turned into summer weather (temperature: low twenties Celsius). Then a cold front moved into Ontario for the states. The temperature dropped down to single digits in the early morning and at night, and finally today we have snow. The snow is sticking on the ground but I doubt it will last for very long. At least I hope it doesn't.
Canadian weather. Some of the weirdest I know (though I think UK weather is even wackier).
