I Can’t Wait to See the Movie
Listen to the Audio:
I’ve been hearing about this movie for weeks. Friends keep talking about it, social media is filled with reviews, and even my teacher mentioned how good it was. So when the weekend finally arrived, I bought tickets in advance just to make sure I wouldn’t miss it.
As I walked toward the theater, I felt this rush of excitement. I could almost imagine the opening scene playing in my head. The moment I stepped inside, the smell of popcorn hit me, and of course, I grabbed a snack before finding my seat.
The lights dimmed, and the trailers started, but honestly, I could barely pay attention. I was just too ready for the main film to begin. This movie is supposed to be full of action, funny moments, and even a twist at the end. I feel like I've been waiting forever, and now the moment is finally here.
Right before the opening scene started, I took out my phone and sent a quick message saying, “I can’t wait—I’ve been looking forward to this movie all week. I’m finally here at the theater, and it’s about to start!”
Before I tell you what I thought of the movie, here’s the message they sent me.

I’ve been hearing about this movie for weeks. Friends keep talking about it, social media is filled with reviews, and even my teacher mentioned how good it was. So when the weekend finally arrived, I bought tickets in advance just to make sure I wouldn’t miss it.
As I walked toward the theater, I felt this rush of excitement. I could almost imagine the opening scene playing in my head. The moment I stepped inside, the smell of popcorn hit me, and of course, I grabbed a snack before finding my seat.

Right before the opening scene started, I took out my phone and sent a quick message saying, “I can’t wait—I’ve been looking forward to this movie all week. I’m finally here at the theater, and it’s about to start!”
Before I tell you what I thought of the movie, here’s the message they sent me.
