Thursday : 07 September 2006
Overall, I think that it was a decent NBN day. There was some… oddness at work, but I left before I had a chance to find out what the outcome was. There’s always tomorrow for that.
Tonight, I had dinner with and at Thai Garden.  Both the company and the food were very good.
After dinner, and I went to the new Century theatre in Midvale/Sandy/wherever it is… and saw Invincible. It was a very good movie. I take back any “Marky Mark and the Football Bunch” cracks I made about it. While it was a “football movie,” it used football as a backdrop and not as the main focus of the film. It was a character-driven movie… and the characters were not treated like caricatures. You could understand their motivations and their personalities. They experienced growth and development. There was a good mixture of emotional content and humor. The movie told the story of a man (Vince Papale), his family, his friends, and the way that he dealt with the challenges that life presented him. Director Ericson Core did a good job of presenting a balanced film. Additionally, a s the movie was set in Philadephia in the mid-1970s, I found myself drawing parallels to Rocky and Rocky II on more than one occasion. I definitely recommend this film.
