Tonight I watched John Wick: Chapter 2, in which the dog-loving widower discovers that it's a good idea to have backups of your favourite photographs
This was followed by Firewall, in which Harrison Ford pretends to be a bank security specialist whose family are kidnapped so he'll help some people rob the bank. This brought back memories of when I worked on an access control system (physical as well as network) that is used by banks and governments around the world, and was told we should remove the comments in the JavaScript files that included the names of who had written what because it might put ourselves or our loved ones at risk of kidnap
It was a decent enough thriller/heist/revenge movie, and as the last time I touched that code was over sixteen years ago I don't suppose there's any danger in mentioning it now
And then I had a beer left to finish, so I watched the rest of 10 Cloverfield Lane, which I watched the first half-hour of a little while back, but found a bit claustrophobic for my tastes that evening (though still good) and left for another time. The rest of it turned out just as good, if just as unpleasantly menacing, but then the last five or ten minutes became real WTF??? territory
Last nights entertainment was Logan. Not your average superhero movie, in fact not a superhero movie at all. Very good though, and a fitting farewell to it's lead characters.
