Recently LaRue and I rented a couple of movies. The first was Slumdog Millionaire.

We both really liked it and can see why it got the Oscar. And for me the scenery and hearing the language brought back a lot of memories. Recommended.
Then the other night I stayed up and watched the latest James Bond flick - Quantum of Solace.

Mediocre. There was plenty of car chasing, foot chasing, blow things up action....but the story was just not there. I don't think I would even recommend renting it.
