I won't spoil anything for anyone, but I do have to say it was MUCH better than I was expecting, I really couldn't find any flaws with the movie... well, maybe the fact that Marky Mark played Charlie Croker... but Charlize Theron more than made up for that. Mmmmm... hehhehhehheh...

The parking lot antics afterwards were fun too... we got to park our MINIs (and one Mini) out right in front of the theater... then I proceeded to jump a curb afterwards. Miss-aimed a second approach to get over the cub later and got stuck though, heh. Then the classic Mini and I buzzed around the parking lot at high speed, pedestrians fleeing... just like the movies! lol

You guys'll enjoy it.

In keeping with the movie, Jer, you actually should have crashed through the front doors and driven into the theater lobby, filled the boot with popcorn, and peeled out into the night...
