Haywire

Gina Carano would kick my butt, at least in the guise of Mallory Kane, a black ops killing machine in Steven Soderbergh's Haywire, due January 2012. I caught this trailer (click title) in the theater over the weekend and was hooked. With Soderbergh directing and a cast that includes Ewan McGregor, Antonio Banderas, Michael Douglas, Bill Paxton, and Gina Carrano, this movie promises to pack a bigger punch than Colombiana (Luc besson and Zoe Saldana) which was good entertainment in my book.

TGWTDT

After two failed attempts, my wife and I were finally able to watch The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, starring Noomi Rapace as the girl. At 2 1/2 hours, it was good that we watched the movie on DVD and from the comfort of our sofa, as opposed in a movie theater. Besides, it has recently been reported that bedbugs have infested NYC movie theaters and clothing stores. Gaaa! Anyway, the film hews closely to the novel. If you enjoyed the book, you won't be disappointed by the movie.

For today's workout, I set the kitchen timer for 10 minutes and executed 94 single-arm c&p's. The no-mas-ometer reads 3.0.
