Million Dollar Bomb

03.29.06

You all know how much I love Bono. But last night we tried hard to watch the movie that he wrote called “Million Dollar Hotel“. Of course U2 did the soundtrack and made a cameo appearance in the movie, but that didn’t stop this movie from going no where. Although it has a very interesting cast (including Mel Gibson, Jimmy Smits, Milla Jovovich, and Jeremy Davies), and was done by a pretty reputable group (Icon), the story is just not interesting. We gave a solid 30 minutes of viewing before we just had to turn it off and go to sleep. Who knows, I might finish it tonight; but it’s not likely…By the way, thanks for reading my 100th post!

yeah I saw the movie too. Attracted because of U2′s involvement. I found it a bit slow and in the end could not quite find great meaning out of it. Yet it was interesting and an artistically invigorating experience.
