East side for hire taxi was perfectly on time. Great deal from a great service.
The government shutdown did not cause a labor shortage at TSA and the lines moved quickly. The flight to Taipei was also smooth and uneventful. I read the papers, then watched some movies.
- “At Any Price:” a powerful US heartland farm story. Lots of drama, a little suspense, not bad *** (3 out of 5 stars).
- “Before Midnight,” the third installment of the “Midnight” trilogy. The film has many long shots, lengthy, talky, intellectual conversations, and Woody Allen style intellectual, whiney dialog. The mediocre acting could not carry the well-written script. Miss it **.
- “Man of Steel:” Big budget, big stars, great special effects, powerful cinematography, huge heart. It’s a little formulaic and unoriginal. Rent or stream this one, ***.
- “Monsters University” Not good, *.
It is very warm, windy, and humid here in Tokyo. The food was pretty good on the United flight.
