Up in the Air at the Moolah.


Last night, my entire family (on my mother's side) ventured out to the Moolah theater off Lindell in St. Louis (if you have never been it comes with my highest recommendation because I looove drinking beer while watching a movie) to watch the new Jason Reitman film, Up in the Air. If right now you are wondering why my entire family, including grandmother, went to see a movie together it was because my uncle has a short role in it. (In the youtube trailer up top he is the smiling Joe at 27 seconds.) Anyways, the movie was charming, funny, everything it was supposed to except it had a fairly odd ending. An ending that everyone I went with didn't seem to enjoy. Don't get me wrong the movie was very good, but in the last 20 minutes fell just short of being great. I bet it will be nominated for an Academy Award now that they expanded the Best Picture category nonetheless.
One of the highlights of the night was trying the Samuel Smith's Organic Lager, which was delicious. One of the lowlights was getting shalacked at darts.
