Netherlands trip includes bicycles and oxygen mask By Kaley Kalil Arcadia native Patrick Touché, 24, recently carried out his pledge to visit Utrecht, Netherlands from June 28 to July 6, but he almost didn’t make it off the plane. “(My roommate and I) made a promise to our old roommate to make it out to the Netherlands because he moved there to play baseball,” Touché said. However, while on a US Airways fl ight from Philadelphia to Amsterdam, roughly an hour into fl ying over the Atlantic Ocean, Touché’s plane lost cabin pressure and had to make an emergency descent to 10,000 feet. “The passengers all had to wear oxygen masks and I think there was confusion,” Touché said, “because half the plane was wearing life jackets and the other half wasn’t.” After the plane was turned around and re-routed back to Philadelphia, passengers waited for about an hour before being transported to another plane and fl own safely to Amsterdam. That’s when the real fun began for Touché. His friend picked him up at the airport and they made the 20-minute drive to Utrecht. “Most of what we did was walk around the different towns, since we were with someone who had been living there for a long time,” Touché said. He visited many bars and restaurants around Utrecht and Amsterdam, and biked or walked just about everywhere. “In Amsterdam, we made it to the ‘I love Amsterdam’ sign and outside of the Heineken factory, but we weren’t willing to pay extra just for a tour,” he said. “Since we were staying with people who lived there, we got a glimpse of how everyday life was for some of the locals; it wasn’t a tourist trip.” Touché quickly fell into the outdoorsy routine so common throughout the Netherlands. He attended a game of Honkbal Hoofdklasse (Dutch for Major League Baseball), and played soccer with some local kids. “We barely ran into anyone who was out of shape,” he said. “The average person there has a very active lifestyle, something I think every American should see for themselves. They’re also very clean and environmentally friendly. There were no paper towels out there.” Continued on page 40

However, the best part of the whole movie is watching a boy who can’t be older than 6 or 7 dance and sing along to Blaine performing “Raise Your Glass.” He reenacts the performance well, even wearing the same out fi t. His whole performance just makes the fi lm. What doesn’t add to the fi lm at all is the 3D. How many critics have to say it before moviemakers will fi nally listen and stop making movies in 3D? More than have said it already, obviously. The 3D doesn’t enhance the actors’ performances in the least bit. It does so little for the movie that the only reason you remember it’s in 3D is because of the glasses you wear, which are a major discomfort for people who already have glasses. Though it’s not a very good introduction to the story of Glee , this concert movie is entertaining and leaves you saying, “Encore!” I give it 3 ½ stars. And by the way, don’t leave right away because there’s a short bit toward the beginning of the credits that you don’t want to miss. Rise of the Planet of the Apes Director: Rupert Wyatt Actors: James Franco, Andy Serkis, Freida Pinto and John Lithgow The prequel to the Planet of the Apes series, Rise of the Planet of the Apes starts by diving right into the action, but reaches its peak much too early, which slows down the rest of the fi lm. It all starts with Will Rodman (Franco), who’s found what he believes to be the cure for Alzheimer’s. The drug is fi rst tested on chimpanzees, and while the drug seems to have enhanced their intelligence, an attack from one of the smarter female chimps causes the whole project to be shut down and all the chimpanzees to be put down. A newborn chimp is found in the late female chimp’s cell and Will realizes that the mother had been pregnant when she was brought in and that she attacked because she was trying to protect her baby. Will takes the baby chimp, names him Caesar, and teaches him sign language. The drug in Caesar’s mom was passed on genetically to Caesar, who excels beyond any of the previous chimps. The drug doesn’t work quite the same on Will’s dad (Lithgow), who has Alzheimer’s and is the reason Will started his research. When Caesar attacks a neighbor, he’s sent to an abusive animal control facility and things take a turn for the worse for everyone. Rise of the Planet of the Apes starts out fast and exciting, but dims down for the second half of the movie, making the audience think, “Just end it already!” Though there aren’t any surprises in the Movies Continued from page 11 story, since the beginning of it is shown in the commercials and the end is predictable, it’s still fun to see it all the way through. Lithgow makes a strong performance as Will’s dad with Alzheimer’s, even though he isn’t in the movie as much as he should be. He doesn’t say much, but that seems to add even more depth to his character. Pinto, whose character is the vet who patches up Caesar’s wounds, plays the same general, female, love-interest role that’s been done a million times. Not much of a stretch there. Franco does better as Will than Pinto does with her character, though not by much. This is due to a mix of Will being a sort of one-dimensional character, and also because he doesn’t get as much screen time as you would think. The ones who did good jobs are all the bad guys. Brian Cox and Tom Felton make the audience despise them as much as one can and then a little more as the father and son team who run the animal control facility. David Oyelowo plays Will’s boss, the one who orders the original batch of chimpanzees to be put down in the beginning of the movie, and practically radiates heartlessness. Ending with an obvious and expected cliffhanger, Rise of the Planet of the Apes gets 3 ½ stars, and thank goodness it’s not in 3D!
