A relatively quiet Saturday for us! Just the cats to take over to Patsy’s for their normal six-weekly wash-n-brush-up. 
So it was a good time to catch-up with the stack of blu-rays that have been gathering dust here in the past few months. A random pick revealed Safe starring Jason Statham. We both like Jason for different reasons, so we were looking forward to this blu-ray: Ann – for ‘The Stath’s’ washboard abs; and me: the slick fight choreography, car chases and general stunt work.
What a disappointment – on all counts! These sort of films are never blessed with the most complex of plots, but this one was soooo thin, even wafers were obese by comparison! No washboard abs either (a major disappointment for one of us!). What’s more, the fight scenes – although fast and furious – were ho-hum predictable and repetitive (a real surprise for JS’s movies). Add to that, a total over-use of shoot-outs partnered with most of the actors acting as if they were on auto-pilot!
A real shame!
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
