HoodWinked

I took Noah for a Mommy/Noah date today to see this movie. Just he and I. Daddy stayed home with the little tinker. I think we were 'HoodWinked'. This movie was sub par to say the least. I thought (in my very humble opinion) that it was not well made and didn't even come close to rising to the occasion of a Shrek type movie as it has been touted I think. Not made by Disney so not that kind of quality. Not made by DreamWorks I don't think and not made by the other big company what is it...Oh I can't think of it but we stayed to watch the credits to see who the voices were and the company that made it, I was like, "Huh?"---sort of explained the movie. Never heard of them.

There was a plot but barely. Andy Dick was the voice of the bad guy and I had him figured out pretty quickly. It was fun to be out with Noah and I'm sure he enjoyed the movie but if you have your choice---skip it. The kids will not remember this one as a super one.

And then there's the really really funny part. Noah and I were sharing popcorn. The guy asked me if we wanted butter, I said yes. Big mistake. Halfway through the movie, I irritadedly (is that a word) noticed that my right hand, particularly my fingers kept having butter on them. I kept wiping it with a napkin but wasn't really focusing on how many times till I really became irritated with it. I looked down in the dark and focused on my hand, it was all buttery/oily. Then I looked down further at my pants. They looked soaked. OMG. They were soaked with BUTTER! Can you believe that? The guy put so much butter that it leaked through to the legs/s of my pants. !!!!!!!!! NOT funny. I actually left Noah in there and went straight to find a manager. What would I say? It wasn't their fault but still I was so livid. I thought my pants were ruined. ----fast forward. I washed them, they were fine. That was probably the funniest part of the whole dang movie.

Just my tiny little advice.....

Don't get hoodwinked into spending your thousand dollars at THAT movie. ;)
