WARNING - movie spoiler ahead

I don't often go to the flicks. There is very rarely anything I fancy so much that I can't wait for it to be on Foxtel.

Tonight the overlord was away at Rotto (at one of those meetings/conference/bonding exercises which are the managerial excuse for a company sponsored piss up). My mate and I decided to go out for dinner and then to the pictures.

We went to Cicerello's to eat. I had salt and pepper calamari and a salad. She had some appalling thing with battered pineapple rings, heaps of chips and some anonymous fish. We had a bit of a walk along the foreshore and then headed to the cinemas. We saw the new Die Hard

OMG is that man hot. Hot hot hot. He might be over 50 but he still stirs my loins.

Like all episodes in the Die Hard saga, you have to leave your reality at the door. Suspend reason. It is 2+ hours of total fantasy. Non-stop, gory, no-time-to-breathe fluff. It was great!

When we walked back to the car (after we had wiped the drool off our chins and regained our composure), we had a bit of a dispute about the best bit. Donna insisted it was when he blew up the helicopter with the car, I was tossing up between the stunt driving with the semi on only one set of wheels or when he shot the bloke through his own shoulder. And, of course, there was the whole suspense of waiting for him to say "yippy kai ai". Or the bit where he punches the Asian chick in the head. Repeatedly.

All typical Die Hard stuff. Just more and better. Gotta love Bruce Willis in John McClane mode.

Did I mention how damned hot that man is?
