So today the hubster and I went to watch The Raid: Redemption which is a foreign action/martial arts film about an elite police squad (that turned out to not be so elite) taking down a gang lord who lives atop a 20 story apartment building filled with all sorts of bad guys. The hubster really wanted to see it and apparently it got lie 97% positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.
Anyway, I walked out of the movie 45 minutes into it. Not because of shaky camera a la Hunger Games, but because of how gruesome the movie was. I can't handle a lot of gory death scenes and this one had constant death scenes. I think I spent 35 of the 45 minutes with my hands over my ears and my head down. I think towards the end of the 45 minutes I was actually jumping in my seat just from the noises I was hearing.
The hubster says I'm getting old. I just think I have better taste in movies and can't stomach trash like this. On the bright side, I got to try on a lot of clothes at Target and Old Navy while I was waiting for him to finish the movie. I got a white bikini for $20.
