Pain & Gain
.
Last Tuesday, my friend and I went to see Pain & Gain. So why am I mentioning this on Tuesday when I normally talk about Greyhounds? Because a Blogville friend had a starring role…Seven of Never Say Never Greyhounds.
Seven starred as Tasty Reuben. Jennifer’s posts about making the movie are fascinating and fun. You can check them out here.
Pain & Gain is an intense, unusual movie that may not suit those who are sensitive to language and violence. I found it very interesting and disturbing, as most black comedies are. If you love film and popular culture, it will give you plenty to talk about.
Seven…I’m so proud of you. Well done. You are a superstar!
I’m still hoping to go see it! Darn it all! I wanted to go opening weekend, but my sister was a jerk, as usual!
We rarely go to the movies (like every ten years or so), but I will rent it when it comes out and we will cheer on Seven from our motor home.
How fun to be in a movie, like kinda interesting too.
Oh wow that is great, I love seven’s name, we think it is real cool!!!

Marky Mark! *sigh* You could turn off the volume and I could just watch him in the movie….
I was almost hooked when I saw the two stars;), but the fact that there is a Greyhound in it clinched it for me:)
There is nothing I love more than a black comedy (unless it’s a horror film) I have quite a bizarre sense of humour!
I will have to look out for that one on dvd, how fantastic to have a Blogville Greyhound, I will have to check out her post about it.

Wow, a real movie star! We’re impressed.

Woof! Woof! My dad wants to watch this movie but mom says just have to wait for the video. Yes its unusual and believe it or not it is based on a true story. Lots of Golden Woofs, Sugar
Sounds cool!

Yay Seven! Can’t wait to go and see it!
This is not Mom’s favorite type of movie, but Dad is a movie buff – she thinks it will be on his list. At least now she will be interested to watch for Seven – thanks for the heads up. Seven is a very beautiful dog.
Woos – Phantom, Thunder, Ciara, and Lightning
Our Lady liked the movie cause Mark Walberg didn’t wear a shirt a lot . . . it seems like a weird reason. She likes a black comedy though. It was not her favourite movie, but it was ok.
Neat to know Seven is from Blogville!
Lee and Phod
wow that is pretty cool

That movie is on my list of must sees when it makes it to video (alas, living in the middle of nowhere means we don’t get to see movies)
I’m probably going to wait until it comes out on DVD as it might not even get to New Zealand, and it will make me finally hook my DVD player up to the TV, lol! I think I’ll enjoy the movie and I know I’ll love seeing Seven!
Guess it will be a while before we get to see it here, but we’ll keep an eye out. I don’t think I’ve been able to claim I know a movie star before….Well sort of! Deccy x
