Movie Night with the Boys

We took the boys to see National Treasure. It is a very fun movie. We enjoyed it as a family.

Have you ever watched a movie and watched a character that reminds you of someone? I'm not talking just physical characterics, but the actual personality. In this movie, Nicholas Cage has a 'sidekick' named Riley. (It's a guy.) One of my co-workers at my last job before I got laid off was a personality clone of this character. I couldn't quit laughing throughout the movie. Before 'Riley' did anything, I knew in advance what his reaction would be scripted to be. It was the intonation and the deadpanning too. When you work side by side with someone for three years, you almost know them better than your spouse. This co-worker of mine used to crack me up. There was some great stuff going on in that guy's head. Watching the movie brought it back...

Funny stuff. Fun film.
