Would you correct my English? (Apr.9)

Hello. I wrote two dialogues. Would you check them?

No. 1

M: I saw an action movie last Friday.

F: Oh, was it great?

M: Well, the special effects were great, but I thought the story

was too boring. I won't recommend seeing it.

No. 2

M: What's our schedule for the next week?

F: We're meeting the Taylors on Tuesday evening, and their son Mike

is taking us shopping on Wednesday morning.

M: Oh, I can't wait [ can hardly wait ] to see the Taylors again!

Thank you! kenta
