Movie Review

Today we went to the mall and checked with the theater to see what movies were currently showing.  Our expat friend, Tyler, grabbed a flyer to check movie times.
The front of the flyer.
The movies being shown are pretty much the same ones currently in theaters in the states. A few weird ones thrown in, but all things considered, a very good selection. And on the other side of the flyer, Tyler pointed out a very interesting review for Skyfall, the new James Bond film.
How often do you read a negative review being put out by a theater trying to sell you a ticket to the movie? Strange, huh?
This is what it says if you can't read the small type in the picture:

Hello exquisite people. My brother in law is a bit of a movie buff and a James Bond Movie fanatic, so I decided to get him to review Skyfall. I'm not too big on James Bond movies but he takes the biscuit. He's watched all the James Bond movies and knows tem inside out. 
He got home upset from seeing Skyfall. He reckons its not a true representation of James Bond aka Roger Moore. He's really upset and gave a critic of Skyfall. He said "this boy" aka Daniel Craig is not the man for the job. He's too rigid and too strict to be a Bond. His thought of James Bond (live and let die, the spy who loved me e.t.c.) was smooth, man next door look with Aston Martins and supertastic guns.  
As I type this, he is still going on about Skyfall very upset and he said to me he's getting me his James Bond collection to show me what he means. He then turns around and said "Oh by the way why the heck is Bond drinking Heineken, he should ask for his drink shaken". I'm sorry no offence Heineken. He thinks the James Bond crew should go back to the drawing board.  
Have a great weekend guys and happy viewing!! 

 We'll probably still go see Skyfall eventually as we've heard good things about the movie from other critics.  Just a slice of life from Lagos.
