We never did see "Hitch" because it hadn't been released. Duhh :)
Instead of Hitch we (being me and the Jane) went to see "Million Dollar Baby" - neither of us knew much about it other than there was boxing and Clint Eastwood in it. I can't say much other than "wow". I didn't expect that much emotion from that film. Came away not tearful but definitely caught off guard.
Saturday night we also went to see "Constantine". Again - whoa! I didn't know anything other than what was in the trailers. Jane had told me that the Jon Constantine character appeared in some graphic novels she had read but I was going in blind. I was blown away. On the edge of my seat at points and thoroughly drawn in by the story.
It wasn't necessarily believable but it was done in such a way that it didn't matter - the comic roots of the film came through loud and clear. Well worth watching, very much fun, will look for the DVD whenever I can get it.
