If you've never gone, or been, camping or have never camped, I would suggest waiting until late April or May. At this point, without the right cold weather gear, you would be in for a miserable time.

When camping, 50 degrees can feel like 30, and overnight in a tent the air gets very very cold. So cold you don't want to leave the sleeping bag, much less the tent.

When you have evenings where it doesn't go below 60 degrees - those are nights for a first time camper. You could go cold weather camping, of course, but if you do be prepared to invest in good cold weather gear. A regular sleeping bag won't do. Cold weather camping is more of a challenge than an activity.

Glamping is still an option this late in the season - and you could rent a yurt or cabin at many camp sites in Maryland, Little Bennett might have year round cabins. While not exactly "rustic" it will get you outside and you won't hate camping like you would if you tried to climb out of a tent to light a fire in 45 degree weather.

It certainly wasn't as terrible as the reviews made it out to be. It also wasn't "great" and, at times, it felt like a movie that would have been made in the mid to late 90s - early 2000s post-Pulp Fiction hitman boom.

The action was well-directed, but it was underwritten overall.

I didn't root for any of the characters, as they all seemed interchangeable. In fact, I only really pulled for Brad Pitt because he was Brad Pitt. Put him in any of the other hitman roles and I may have felt the same.

But other than that, it was a cool movie.
