Over the Thanksgiving break I was able to see two great movies. The first that I saw was Skyfall and with all of the commercial previews and hype I'm sure you know what movie I'm talking about. If you don't know though, it is the newest of the of the Bond movies. I am not even going to pretend that I've seen half of the Bond movies so I had very little background knowledge when seeing this movie. Before I go any further I have to let you know that it is two and a half hours long and ordinarily with a movie of that length I would be snoozing half way though, but the action and excitement in the movie made it impossible to fall asleep and the visual effects are stunning. It is one of the few action movies that I really really enjoyed and I highly recommend it!
The next movie I saw was Lincoln, quite the contrast after seeing Skyfall. From what I know about Abraham Lincoln and his wife Mary, Daniel Day-Lewis and Sally Field played them very accurately. I love history, which may be why I enjoyed the movie so much, but I am sure that just about anyone can really appreciate and enjoy this movie. It has great emotion and great performances that are sure to win awards. I of course recommend this movie as well!
Have you seen either? If so, what did you think?
If you haven't seen either, are you planning to see one or both while still in theaters?
I would love to hear your thoughts!
