Weekend Entertainment Part Something

Movie to Watch

This weekend I'm taking on The Factory, a 2012 release I had never heard of before seeing it last night in the Netflix Watch Instantly library.  John Cusack and hottie Jennifer Carpenter star in this police drama with one of my Hollywood infatuations, Ksenia Solo, also in the cast.  The movie isn't even listed on RottenTomatoes.com so I am not holding my breath that this one will be anything to write home about but I really enjoy cops and murderer flicks and the cast is eye catching.
Punishing Exercise

I'm planning to get something back on the sunshine tax that normally I pay into the SoCal economy in the form of high housing, gas and energy costs this weekend by taking a trip to the beach to go jogging barefoot in the sand.  If all goes well, I should get a little bit of a tan and lose some of the unfortunate jiggle that has developed around my middle.  Hopefully, I won't run into any federal agents like I did the last time.

  1. netflix instant streaming has lost so many films over the past few years, but there are still some good ones on there...diamonds in the rough.

    I haven't been to the beach since, well since last summer. I'm trying to live in denial and pretend the murderous California heat isn't returning so I can wear jackets a few more weeks.

  3. Thank you both. As it turns out, the ending of The Factory doesn't really make sense and the cinematography was below par. The quality of the production was about that of an episode of CSI: New York, not a feature film. Still, I enjoy the crime / thriller genre and seeing this gave me some ideas about my own fictional creations.
