The Hurt Locker is an intense portrayal of elite soldiers who have one of the most dangerous jobs in the world: disarming bombs in the heat of combat. When a new sergeant, James, takes over a highly trained bomb disposal team amidst violent conflict, he surprises his two subordinates, Sanborn and Eldridge, by recklessly plunging them into a deadly game of urban combat. James behaves as if he's indifferent to death. As the men struggle to control their wild new leader, the city explodes into chaos, and James' true character reveals itself in a way that will change each man forever.

Sam Raimi, director of Evil Dead and Army of Darkness directs Drag Me to Hell. Raimi is not a struggling independent director since doing the Spiderman films, but why not? It's got great reviews and we haven't been to a horror flick yet. Should be fun. We may go to Houston's or somewhere nearby for drinks afterwards if there is enough interest.
Movie starts at 7:45pm. Jenna and Tom (me) will be at the fountain in the lobby at 7:30pm with a small MIFFM sign.

Looks like this should be a good movie. Let's shoot for next Friday, May 22nd. The film starts at 7:25pm. Malco won't publish it schedule a week in advance, which makes planning tough. I will confirm the schedule by Monday. We may go out for drinks locally afterward if there is enough interest. Does anyone know of a nice place in this area?

Here is the Metacritic review of the film:
http://www.metacritic.com/film/titles/goodbyesolo

On the lonely roads of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, two men forge an improbable friendship that will change both of their lives forever. Solo is a Senegalese cab driver working to provide a better life for his young family. William is a tough Southern good ol‘ boy with a lifetime of regrets. One man‘s American dream is just beginning, while the other‘s is quickly winding down. But despite their differences, both men soon realize they need each other more than either is willing to admit. Through this unlikely but unforgettable friendship, Goodbye Solo deftly explores the passing of a generation as well as the rapidly changing face of America.

This looks like a good movie.

The movie time should be 7:30 pm, but the schedule isn't posted yet. I will update if the time changes. Note that the Ridgeway Four is by the Hilton hotel and back from the road (Ridgeway Center Pkwy) a bit. Make sure you review how to get there in advance.
