Charlie Wilson’s War opened in Korea earlier this week. I knew absolutely nothing about it, having seen no previews of it and having never heard of Charlie Wilson. I love being able to go into a movie with no expectations at all. It usually makes for a better experience. This movie didn’t need the help, though, as it was good all around.
After the flick and a bad lunch at a curry restaurant, we headed off to my regular DVD shop and picked up a stack of titles. We were looking for season 3 of Lost, but it apparently hasn’t been released here yet. So we grabbed the second season of Rome and several movies. One movie I was happy to find was Heavy Metal. I was just thinking the other day that I’d like to see it again. I was worried that it wouldn’t hold up after all these years and would be cheesy, but it’s just as cool now as it was back then. My wife had never seen it before and really enjoyed it.
I’ll probably spend today at home with the DVD player running. And this week, we’ll be going through season 1 of Rome again before starting on season 2. Next week, I’m off to buy season one of Heroes, which I still haven’t seen completely and was just recently released on DVD in Korea.
