So we went to see 9 on opening day (9/9/09 for those of you at home not following) at about 3:30 PM. The movie was certainly interesting, it kinda felt long (even at 1:19) and as if there were parts that could have been shortened or removed (as a whole, kind of like the film movie was slightly disjointed, and moved smoothly sometimes and quite jerkily others). You’ll notice I crossed out the word “film,” because I’m not a real film critic and I think most of them are idiots. Kinda like you amateur bathroom critics think of me.

Roomy and warm, with notes of musk and almonds…oops, wrong review! Seems like I’m having issues today. The bathroom at Century Roseville 14 is roomy and decorated in warm earth-tones, though. It’s not as up-beat as some that I’ve seen, and I’d really like to see more movie posters in there (I brought this up in the last theater review I did)…or maybe some cool old movie advertisements…like the original King Kong, or Dracula, or even Gone With the Wind. Come to think of it, what the guys’ bathroom needs is the old Rambo and Texas Chainsaw Massacre II (or other random horror movie sequel, but I seem to recall that one best from my innocent youth, the cardboard cutout standing in the video store amongst the VHS and last few remaining BETA tapes)… All joking aside, the bathroom gets a 3.5 for being above average and clean and well-executed. As much as I’d like to see relics from my youth hanging out in the bathroom (it would make me laugh) the bathroom is well-put together and really, adding anything would make it seem kitschy. The trick is to be both not average and not kitschy.
