Shutter Island.

This evening, myself, my brother, Fgreal (Mcgreal+Fiona) and Anga (Jimmy+Anna) had planned on seeing clash of the titans at 20:20. However, due to it being orange wednesday and a massive queue by the time we arrived at the ticket booth the only tickets left were those for Shutter Island.

We watched the film and were non-plussed by the storyline *spoiler* which entailed Leonardo Dicaprio portrayed as a Marshal whom was looking into the disappearance of one of the mental patients on the island. After a long winded story you find out he is infact insane and has made up the story and it finishes with an open ending that is rather frustrating *end spoiler*.

Fortunately this is not the reason that I am writing this blog. The real reason is the rapid fire event that happened after.

We had noticed that some chav kids (about 15 years of age) were stealing sweets from the dispensers at the cinema, due to lack of security personnel or cinema staff (whatever you want to call them). After a bit of grumbling on our part (between ourselves) we noticed that they were going back for more.

To my shock Mcgreal shot over to them like lightning, pushed one of the little thieves and said "Oi fuck face". The room had gone silent. The kid was rather shocked by the challenge and followed this up with a few expletives and the typical chav lingo of, "You startin' mate" on Jimmy whom had followed. Jimmy replied with a quick, "It wasn't me" while inclining towards Mcgreal whom looked ready to beat the shit out of them.

Fiona, whom clearly did not want to be left out jumped in on this, "Put them back or I'm getting security". Now add an angry expression to her face, a shaking fist and a loud voice and they quickly started backing away.

She pressed the advantage with a firm "FUCK OFF!!!!!!!!!!!" and left to get security. Needless to say Anna and myself were cracking up with laughter (after they had gone).

I have to say that this event brought a high note to what was otherwise a letdown of a film.
