Despite having Lee Marvin in it, I was fairly let down by this movie. Even ignoring how its decidely less dark than the remake Payback it had several lengthy sequences that were totally pointless. Travel montages, with the sound of Lee Marvin walking in a hallway overlaid on them. A flashback to every violent scene in the movie at about the 3/4ths point. I guess I'll just have to keep waiting for the director's cut of Payback that is supposed to make Parker even more amoral. Or maybe just track down some Richard Stark and check out the original source material...

Got around 7 am to finish clearing stuff away for the carpet guys to take out the old and put in the new. Which got done around 8 pm (which was pretty fast). Watched The Departed on dvd, then went and saw The Last Mimzy (very good, everyone should go see before it leaves the theaters or at least remember to grab it when the dvd comes out). Bought some books, dropped off meds, got car washed. Finished Tanya Huff book, started Elmore Leonard one. Moved a few things back after the carpet guys left. Computer at home still isn't set up and the connection here at work is a little wonky tonight. Plus over 7 hours to go on shift. Very tired. Now going to try and catch up on everything I missed today...
