ANIMAL

I went to see this today, Monday, December 4th, 2023, at the Century 14 here in Vallejo, CA. The price of admission was $9.50.

Vijay has a lifelong need to always meet with his beloved father's approval. And he goes to certain extremes to do so. 

R, 3h & 2m

This movie sure was bumped

up 30 days earlier than it

was planned! I think

that there's a good

reason for it: An

anticipated hit

movie is on

its way.

😶 

-

Auditorium 1, B-6

A few more people

showed up just as

the movie was

about to get

started.

-

The Mile High Club. It's the only way to fly. 😉

For a great fighter, he sure doesn't know how to apply a Rear Naked Choke:

His victim should have passed

out in under 15 seconds if he

applied the chokehold

correctly.

-

His obsession with underwear 🩲 reminds me of Kanye West who supposedly only uses any underwear JUST ONCE! It must be why there's a reference to buying him 365 pieces of underwear.

That door can't block bullets. Why did he shield himself from getting hit with bullets by hiding under that fallen door?

This is a first for me: They actually have a Bollywood Song & Hack now. Quite an extreme departure from the tried & true Bollywood Song & Dance! 

Some places in the world would feel somewhat uncomfortable in watching scenes with the Swastika. I know that some liberals here in the States would be "virtue signal" triggered by it! 

The mobility 🦼scooter which is outfitted with an array of Gatling Guns sure got me laughing!

Okay, Vijay killed a whole bunch of bad guys. Some of which looked physically fit! So, instead of waiting patiently for a Heart ❤️ Transplant donor, he could just have harvested a bunch of potential Heart Transplant organs on his next killing spree! 🤷‍♂️ Heck, in fact, he could have started A Very Lucrative Side Hustle Business harvesting the organs of his fallen enemies! 👌🤑👍💰 I'm sure that desperate organ recipients won't mind getting Masala Spice flavored Organs. 🙃

Worried about getting Bad Karma for killing so many people, he goes to a Catholic Church for forgiveness of his sins. But the priest condems him to 😈Hell👿, instead! Vijay should have consulted with 👉me👈 about the church's secret way of Sin Forgiveness that will have him be essentially covered for 10, 100 or even 1000 reincarnations, depending on how much money he can come up with to pay the priest ❗❗❗

How do you think all of the "christian"

genocidal maniacs got away with

killing so many people thru-

out the centuries? 🤷‍♂️

Vijay would be living future lives

as a "saintly" man. I'm just

being sarcastic, folks.

So, chill ....

-

Dang the airplane's Black Box device!  😁

Gitanjali's brassiere looks like it has an under breast shelf to push up Dem Melons! 😜 Kinda reminds me of the elevator shoes for short guys! 😂

Okay, this has got to be the first Bollywood movie with a frontal nudity in it that I've seen❗ Well, maybe second if you consider 1996's KAMA SUTRA with Sarita Choudhury doing us the favor. 😏   No---Scratch that❗🤓❗ How could I even for a brief moment forget the 👉many contributions👈 made in Celluloid by Karenjit Kaur Vohra, aka Sunny Leone ❓🤷‍♂️❓🤦‍♂️❓I Do The Necessary HARD 😛 Research So That You, My Dear Readers, Don't Have To. 👀

Why are Vijay and Gitanjali arguing with each other in English? I mean, the Hindi language has been around for thousands of years! Surely, Hindi should have a whole surplus of cuss words and dirty words by now!!! 

I do know that it's a bad idea to flip a lit cigarette onto the tarmac! 😦

Again, don't shoot guns at an angle against the floor or the bullet will ricochet! 😠

There's supposedly a part 2 against an evil "twin"! 

And there are some Bonus Scenes after the movie ends. 

TIDBITS:

This movie is weird. 🥴  I don't know how to categorize it! It is Insanity, Violence and Comedy rolled into one In The Most Over The Top Way❗😕  It is about a toxic Alpha Male Testo Rage between 2 rival groups.

👉Why Bollywood should have consulted with me first before making this movie👈: 

The surgical scar on Vijay's chest looks too smooth. It doesn't look like that in a real post-op. I should know since I had one done on myself. It takes months BEFORE it smooths out. And the Rib Cage, which has to be secured back into place is held together by wire stitches 🪡. And the Chest will be loose for many months, too, and one would have to be careful how one sleeps and when one sneezes because either one might disturb the stitches. And one cannot wear any shirt that is not a button down shirt because one cannot be lifting one's arms away from one's Chest during the recovery period. And there are weekly visits from a nurse to check up on the Recovery Phase.

What I'm saying is that the fight on the tarmac could have easily ended badly for Vijay had the bad guy taken advantage of Vijay's situation ❗❗❗

A major surgery patient is also Intubated. You'd be surprised how far down they can put the breathing tube in you! And it can take a while to slowly pull it out of you. How in heck are they even able to put it in, in the 1st place?!?!?! The right side of my Throat was so sore after the tube was removed!

When I woke up from surgery and learned that someone had put a Penile Catheter in Mini-Me, I felt like I was violated. I mean, there I was under General Anesthesia in a roomful of people who were watching that catheter get shoved into poor little ol' Mini-Me! 🙁 And when I used the toilet 🚽 to empty my Bladder after the Penile Catheter was removed, the Urine Flow was so weak AND the Meatus of my "meat" 😏 fluttered with the flow of Urine, somewhat like it was "motorboating" ( see Slang definition ) all of the while that I was peeing!  🤣🤣🤣

Guys, get yourself one of these if you know

that you'll be going in for major surgery

to protect your Mini-Me! 

Only for 🇺🇲 &  🇨🇦

customers.

I dined at an off the freeway Jack In The Box, on Red Top Road between Vallejo & Fairfield, a few times. I sometimes noticed that this restaurant is a pit-stop for people who deliver Live Organs for Transplants! I could easily see through the car's window the Thermos Lunch Box-style coolers that the Donor Organs are kept in❗ Can you just imagine if someone hot-wired the medical transport car or if someone broke in and stole the medical coolers thinking that there was food in them❓😳❗

For this movie, I had a small bag of almonds with me to eat with my Hungry Buddha Lemon/Blueberry Keto Bar. I washed it all down with a 0.1 oz (2.7 g) stick of Dole Zero Sugar Tropical Splash flavored 20 fl oz (591 ml) Dasani Water.

A HOLOGRAM FOR THE KING, R ( 1 hr & 37 min )

-

I went to see this on Saturday, April 23rd, 2016, in Napa, CA, at the CENTURY NAPA VALLEY AND X-D, in auditorium 9, 5th row from the front, 1st seat from the right.  The price of admission was $12.00. And I bought a $6.05 small Buttered Popcorn and a $2.20 ( $2.00-off movie watcher e-mail reward coupon ) small Lemonade/Fruit Punch.

Quickie Review:  A desperate salesman ( Tom Hanks ) goes to Saudi Arabia to try to sell a holographic telecommunication system to the king. His local driver ( Alexander Black ) and a female doctor ( Sarita Choudhury ) help him learn about the way of life in the desert kingdom.

The audience liked it. I liked it, too.

Go see this movie. To paraphrase Borat, "This is for cultural learning of Saudi Arabia for make benefit incredulous salesman of America. Please watch this movie film ... or I will be execute!"

I liked the local driver. He had a good on-screen persona.

The name, Sarita Choudhury, sounded familiar to me. So, when I got home, I googled her name. Yup, I saw her for the first time 20 years ago in the movie, KAMA SUTRA, at a rinky-dink old theatre, the Orinda Theatre in Orinda, CA. It's the only other movie that I saw her in. She was so beautiful back then. Well, she still is. But this 20-year time has not been so kind to her face.

One Saudi Arabian character in the movie said, "We don't have unions. We have Pilipinos." True, there are a lot of Pilipinos working in Saudi Arabia, doing jobs that the Arabs feel are beneath their dignity. Did you know that in Saudi Arabia, Pilipinos are derogatively referred to as, "Brown Niggers"? Yeah, I think that that also holds true in some other Middle Eastern countries.

And, sad to say, some Pilipinos have been beheaded in Saudi Arabia. When it comes to beheadings, ISIS has a long way to go if it wants to play catch-up with Saudi Arabia!

If life was better for the majority of the people in the Philippines, Pilipinos would rather work in the country than go abroad to some other country just to support their loved ones at home. The Philippine economy is actually on a fast-track for improvement. Now, if only political corruption--unchecked and rampant--at the local and national levels could be gotten rid off.

I have a cousin who works hard in the Middle East just to support his family in the Philippines. Most of the money that he makes, he wires to the Philippines. Especially since he has a daughter and two sons going to school. They're doing well in school, at least. He has a medical condition that needs to be attended to, but he would rather save his money for his wife and kids than take care of his health problems. He is so looking forward to his retirement. And I worry for him.

*******************************************

I drove to Vacaville, CA, first because the BRENDEN VACAVILLE 16 had a tribute show to the late artist formerly known as, Prince. Prince's movie, PURPLE RAIN, was shown at 7:00 p.m. The parking lot was almost packed because it was a Saturday and because of the Prince movie. I got in line with just five minutes to spare before the start of the movie. I looked up at the Show and Price Listing. The movie was priced at only $5.00. Yay .... When my turn came up to buy a ticket, the box office clerk told me that the movie had already sold-out! I mouthed, F-ck ....

I drove all the way to Vacaville, a distance of about 23 miles ( 37 kilometers ) just to be told that the movie was sold-out. Dang it! Then I remembered that there was a 7:35 showing of, A HOLOGRAM FOR THE KING, at the Napa City theatre.

I hurried back to my car as I texted a post to my Facebook page to let my friends know that the Prince movie was sold-out.

I got back on the 80 Freeway to head south. I knew that Highway 12 connects to Napa; but at its junction with Highway 29, I forgot whether to turn left at the light or to turn right. I was thinking that I would need to take a left turn at the light. But I didn't want to take a chance since I was on a very tight schedule.

I exited at the American Canyon Off-ramp. And drove down the winding road until I got to Highway 29. There, I made a right to head to Napa City. When I got to the intersection of Highway 12, I realized that I would have had to take a right to go to the theatre. I'm glad that I didn't take Highway 12 like I wanted to do earlier or I would have been late for the movie. But now I know for next time.

I stepped into the auditorium with just a minute to spare before the movie started.

I, once again, parked at the very far end of the parking lot, hoping that I could jog back to my car. But there were cars coming and going in the parking lot. I just walked it because I didn't want to risk getting hit by a car.

There is a Jack In The Box Restaurant just a block away. But it was around 9:35 p.m. and I believe they close at 10:00 p.m. I decided to go to the MacDonald's Restaurant in the Wal-Mart Super Center in American Canyon for dinner because they close at midnight.

While I was eating my dinner of Double Cheeseburger ( I didn't eat the bun ) w/ Side Salad, a former co-worker of mine came over to say, "Hi!" I saw him two nights earlier at the MacDonald's in the Target Shopping Center in Vallejo. I think that he is following me around---Night Stalker Alert!  Ha, ha, ha.
