We watched Salt the other night. Thanks to Nuffnang for giving us the free tickets. I was initially worried Z wouldn’t be let inside the theater because he is only five years old but after I called the cinema I was informed he was good to go.

There were a lot of errands we had to do first before we were finally able to go to the cinema. Not to mention the fact that we got lost on the way. It’s been a long time since hubby has gone to Greenbelt and he was taken aback by the newly erected buildings. We had to go around a block twice before finally finding a parking lot and then just when we were halfway to the cinema he remembered he forgot his wallet inside the car! So we were more than happy when finally, we were able to go inside the cinema and sit on comfortable chairs.

Salt is a spy thriller featuring the famous Angelina Jolie. We were glued the entire time to the screen. There were lots of nerve wracking action scenes and chasing scenes that even our little boy loved. I have to hold my breathe a lot of times and pray that the industrial handles the heroine, Evelyn Salt, hang onto is sturdy enough to hold her weight. In the end, there was a twist in the movie that took me by surprise.

The only thing I don’t like is Angelina Jolie’s dreadful wigs. Angelina is famous for her beauty and beautiful body but that movie made her look so ugly. She is too skinny and the hair didn’t suit her at all. They could have made her look like a glamorous spy if they wanted to but they didn’t and that’s why I was disappointed.

Anyway, other people may not agree with me but just watch the movie and give me your verdict.

Toy Story 3 opens today, June 17, at cinemas and since we’re having a movie marathon – not the kind where you watch movies all day long but meaning we’re watching all kiddie movies until the baby arrives – we’ll surely watch this one this weekend. I have seen the trailer and in Toy Story 3 Andy goes to college and so the toys were donated to a preschool (I think!). I don’t know what happened there (I still have to watch it remember) but maybe the kids are so mean that the toys have to escape. Well, we just have to watch to get the full details, don’t we.
Don’t wait too long because if you’re going to watch it at any SM Cinema you will have a chance to win 5 days and 4 nights trip to Hongkong Disneyland!  Promo is from June 17 to June 27.
