To keep cool during this incredible heat wave we are having here in the valley, we went to see this film today in an air-conditioned theatre. It's well worth the outrageous cost of two senior tickets. The scenery is magnificent, the acting superb (Jeremy Renner is a pleasure to watch; his slightest eyelid flutter tells volumes), the rest of the cast is excellent. There's a lot of mayhem involved; if a REAL FBI agent and a BLM agent engaged in anything close to the shootout we see, they'd be tied up in court for the rest of their lives. But hey, it's the movies. We both liked it; we both recommend it.
Oh yes, I forgot to mention that the reason we needed a cool spot is our air conditioner went out on Monday. We did suffer a bit yesterday when it was 108º. We are now in a cooling trend; it's only going to get up to 98º tomorrow, but up into the triple digits again on Thursday and over the weekend and into next week. Perfect for a nightly swim, though. Fortunately the repair guys are coming tomorrow morning so we may get back on the cool side, at least indoors, by tomorrow afternoon.
