Going to a movie is a two-hour experience; at $7.50 for a ticket, you are valuing your time at far less than the minimum wage. If you don't understand the film, don't leave. If you understand it all too well and hate it, get out of your seat and walk up the aisle. You will feel empowered.

Living here in North America - I have been Americanized. When I go back home now, there are things that I have far less tolerance for in South Africa.
