Cinema in Gdansk

hello readers, this time I will give you an insightful and hopefully spoiler free review on the first Marvel movie I watched the other day. As you can guess the movie is called Deadopool 2. I got the courage to watch this movie thanks to the motivation that came from my friends, now that I look back at it the only thing I can say is that it was a unregrettable time spent with my eyes and ears glued to the screen, surrounded with friends whom voices I recognised from their laughter as the unfolding of the punch lines of the movie.

Guess which movie it is..

A friend of mine was about to finish his Erasmus so, together with some other people, we went to the cinema. I didn’t manage to be at the cinema on time because I had to attend a lecture. This time, my lateness was not a big deal because the movie started almost twenty-five minutes after the scheduled starting time. At first I thought that here in Poland they wouldn't have this commercials time before a movie because in my mind starting things at the established time is at the base of a poles' mentality but then again our world is influenced by the flow of money and commercials are a great way to make money.

Where to watch it ?

In Gdansk there are many shopping malls where usually it is possible to find a cinema (kino in polish) and the one where I saw this movie is called Helios cinema and you can find it inside the Galeria Metropolia, on the second floor. Again you have to love Mother Poland for this: with your student card you pay only 17 zl. At the counter you can get something to drink or a snack to take with you but I didn't get anything because I prefer not to. The seats are comfortable and it just gives you the right vibe to relax and enjoy a movie.

Personal review about the movie

It was at times incredible how fast the various scenes were proceeding, one fact after another, one punch line after the other and at some point I couldn't keep up with it all. Maybe this is a common thread to most Marvel movies but given the fact that this was my first time I will let you, reader, make your own mind about it.

One thing that really struck me was that the whole movie wasn't just about an unresolved rivalry between some characters with a  grand finale; This time the movie was telling a lot more with its punch lines outlining all the things that are happening around us, things that are slowly merging into the 'normality'. Also the leading actors weren't your usual chiselled body type superheroes that are often too far from any sort of human life experience. This features made it possible for me not only to laugh with no containment but to also have a post movie reflection which I must say stired up something in me. To better understand this last paragraph I urge you to go to the cinema and watch this movie, only then me and you, reader, will be on the same page about this modern day phenomena.

What I learned from this experience 

There are a couple of things I can say that I have learned thanks to this movie and of course thanks to my motivating friends that I have; For now I will just list the relevant ones:

• You can't say that you don't like something before you try it. Give it a shot and who knows maybe it will be just the thing that will turn things around for you, this movie did exactly that to me.
• spending time with friends is a good thing, especially when you do something that gets everyone excited like in this case going to the kino, cinema.
• Movies are amazing because they let you see things in the eyes of someone who is different from you and probably doing things that you don't get to do everyday.
• Don’t be afraid to let yourself get into a situation you have never been into; having some nice, motivating friends might help with this one

Cheers to you all and thanks for reading!
