Last night we chilled and watched a couple of movies: The Incredibles (imdb | rotten tomatoes) and The Motorcycle Diaries (imdb | rotten tomatoes). Both suited my mood; first a light and fluffy animated, and then pensive road movie.

Both also lived up to expectations. The Incredibles was as well animated as any Pixar release, but played a little darker and more adult than their previous features. Started a little slow, but picked up steam as it went. Same goes for The Motorcycle Diaries; it took a good 30 or 40 minutes to really get going, but became surprisingly gripping somewhere around northern Chile. I admit to knowing very little about Che Guevara, but I think that helped me here. I actually wish I’d had no idea who he was; it would’ve been fascinating to find out that he went on to do what he did in Cuba.
