Predictable and unoriginal

The Eye is a predictable ghost story. You can read the summary and figure out the whole thing. Jessica Alba gets a cornea transplant and starts seeing what the donor saw which drives her to figure out what happened to her. You can literally see everything coming. On top of that they borrow elements from The Sixth Sense.

Bad guy Mark Strong turns out to be the much more interesting character

James McAvoy is a London detective who has been after legendary heist man Mark Strong for years. McAvoy finally thinks he has a chance to catch him when Strong’s son shows up. The story is very interesting because Strong isn’t really portrayed as a bad guy. Yes he committed a large robbery at the start, but after that he’s more concerned about getting his son back. He also isn’t a cold blooded killer as he had a chance to take out McAvoy but only shot him in the leg instead. Strong turns out to be the much more interesting character. Of course there’s action and gun play thrown in. There’s one very intense scene involving a mercenary and his grandmother that really stands out. Just as important the story ends up going in an interesting direction and not the one you expect from the start. It all makes for a very good crime drama.

Dark mood and curse of the mummy make this a classic

I recently saw the 1930s Frankenstein movie and I have to say The Mummy is MUCH better. Frankenstein was really about Dr. Frankenstein more than the monster and suffered as a result. The Mummy on the other hand had a far darker mood and focuses upon the curse of the mummy. It’s very well done and is the reason why this is considered a classic.

Exploration into the excesses of power

The Masque of the Red Death is set in Italy where Vincent Price plays an autocratic prince who terrorizes his own people. It turns out he’s a sadist and a Satanist. The film is based upon a story by Edgar Allen Poe. Rather than being a horror film it’s more about the excesses of power.<br /><br />Price plays his role beautifully. He enjoys humiliating people and exposing their faults and weaknesses. For instance, at a party he has his guests dance on the floor like beasts. Another time a noble comes to visit and Price refuses him entry because the red death disease has spread across the lands. The man offers his wife as payment but Price replies he’d already had her. He tells a woman he’s kidnapped that the noble thought he was a good man but faced with dire consequences he exposes himself to be as base and the lowest person. It actually looks like Price is enjoying himself being so wicked. Along the way his character finds out that power corrupts all.<br /><br />The movie is surprisingly good and the ending is a treat. Definitely one of Price’s better efforts and a great adaptation of the work of Poe.

Violence and society's attempt to control it

A Clockwork Orange was Stanley Kubrick’s adaptation of a book of the same name. It’s one of the greatest and most disturbing dystopian tales put to film. It focuses upon violence and how society’s attempt to control it leads to abuses.<br /><br />The movie centers around Alex (Malcolm McDowell) who is the leader of a small gang. They partake in Ultra-violence which are random acts of beatings, theft and rape. The start of the film documents that with a beating of a drunk, a gang fight, and a home invasion and rape.<br /><br />Once the violence in society was established the second part of the story covers how the authorities dealt with it. Alex is imprisoned and goes through a radical re-education process meant to rid him of his anti-social tendencies. He’s basically brainwashed to get a sick and revolting feeling anytime he thinks about violence or sex. This is a critique of the government that wants to control society and will go to extreme measures to do so. There’s also hints that it wants to use these same techniques against dissenters as the Interior Minister (Anthony Sharp) talks about needing prisons for political prisoners and a critic of the government being imprisoned at the end. There’s also commentary about how society in general is violent, which is shown in several subsequent scenes.<br /><br />There are plenty of dystopian stories but A Clockwork Orange stands out above all of them with its unique vision about violence and governance.

Predictable story and Templar's disguises are horrible

Simon Templar known as The Saint was based upon a series of mystery novels that were turned into various movies and TV shows. This version featured Val Kilmer as Templar who is a high-end thief and a master of disguise. Templar is hired by a Russian oligarchy named Ivan Tretiak (Rade Serbedzija) to steal a cold fusion formula from the scientist Dr. Emma Russell (Elisabeth Shue).<br /><br />Here’s the thing. When this movie came out in 1997 Kilmer’s good looks and all the disguises he put on might have been enough to propel this story but watching it today a lot of it comes off very cheesy. Many of the characters he creates just seem ridiculous like a smooth talking African. The other big problem is that the story is very predictable. Templar and Russell are going to fall for each other and complicated his deal with Tretiak. So if you know what’s going to happen and Templar’s disguises are whack there’s no real draw for this film.<br />C

Funny dark comedy crime flick

This is a dark comedy about Cillian Murphy who owes a bunch of money to the local gangster Darren Perrier (Brendan Gleeson). Murphy goes from trying to pay back his debt to being on the run from Perrier with his drugged out dad played by Jim Broadbent and his neighbor Jodie Whitaker who was just dumped by her boyfriend. That of course leads to all kinds of hijinks which is where the laughs come from.<br /><br />The comedy is well done. Broadbent for instance sticks up some cops and steals their car. Every vehicle Murphy tries to drive ends up getting a boot put on it by the traffic police. This is especially inconvenient when he’s being chased and runs out only to find his car can’t be driven.<br /><br />In fact, Broadbent might be the best character of the lot. He said he was visited by death. Asks his son for drugs. Gives out life advice and is funny.

A quicky adventure story by Wes Anderson

Wes Anderson has a distinct vision for his films in terms of lighting, colors, sets, etc. His characters tend to be eccentric and usually run into ridiculous situations. The Grand Budapest Hotel is an example. It’s an unlikely adventure story.<br /><br />The film is about Ralph Fiennes as Monsieur Gustave the concierge and Tony Revolori as Zero a lobby boy, his protégé and eventual owner of the hotel who come into possession of a priceless picture and the people who want to get their hands on it. All kinds of goofy things happen such as Jeff Goldbum having to go to the coat check to get his dead cat and then getting his fingers cut off. Fiennes is great in his role. He’s very debonair and then starts losing it as the tensions grow. William Dafoe as an enforcer also stands out as a menacing and mysterious figure. Harvey Keitel as a bald and tattooed prisoner was also a surprise. If you like Anderson’s other releases you’ll like Grand Budapest Hotel.

I laughed but it didn't pack in as many jokes as the 1st movie

Reno 911! was a hilarious TV show and its first movie was great as well. I wasn’t sure about this one at first because the start was only amusing but as it progressed it got better. I laughed out loud several times. Still it wasn’t as good as the first film. It just didn’t deliver as many jokes. I also felt it wasn’t as much of an ensemble performance as the show and previous film. Still I liked it.

Coming of age story for young girl in 1970s Brooklyn

Crooklyn was loosely based upon Spike Lee’s upbringing in Brooklyn, New York. The style is similar to Do The Right Thing. Both have main storylines, in this case the topic is the Carmichael family in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood. At the same time they are full of side stories about the people in the community. Lee’s point was to show both a coming of age story for Troy Carmichael (Zelda Harris), the only daughter in the family, as well as what it was like to live in an African American neighborhood in the 1970s.<br /><br />For Troy she has to put up with her four brothers who whine, complain and get into trouble all the time. Tory’s mother Carolyn (Alfre Woodward) ends up getting sick which devastates her daughter while her dad Woody (Delroy Lindo) is a frustrated and out of work Jazz artist. She also hangs out on the block and goes to her auntie’s house in Virginia for the summer which is a culture shock for someone used to living in the city. These are all typical stories about growing up. It also shows a complete and loving African American family. Too many times the only kinds of black families you see in Hollywood are led by single moms.<br /><br />In the neighborhood you have a cast of characters from two drug addicts that terrorize the kids to a weird neighbor to the Carmichaels, and more. There’s all the music as well which is prominent throughout the film like Soul Power by James Brown and Respect Yourself by The Staple Singers. Again this is meant to highlight the community with all its quirks and different experiences as well as the culture of 1970s America.<br /><br />Crooklyn isn’t as strong as Lee’s best work like Malcolm X, Do The Right Thing or The Inside Man. Some are thrown off by all the side stories which can lead people to lose track of what the film is about. It’s still an enjoyable watch with plenty of funny and emotional scenes.

Stories of hedonism regret and revenge

Taking the 1970s TV series Fantasy Island and turning it into a thriller was a nice twist. The start pays homages to the original with Mr. Roarke/Michael Pena being in charge of the resort and a person saying “The plane, the plane” just like Herve Villechaize used to do. There’s also two Asian leads Maggie Q and Jimmy Yang. This movie got panned when it came out but I thought it was rather enjoyable. The stories are interesting from hedonism to dealing with regret and revenge. There are twists of course as you would expect and some horror thrown in.

Deals with PTSD but the Vietnam War sequences are really bad

Deer Hunter dealt with post-traumatic stress disorder before that term was well known. It centers around a group of working class friends from a steel town in Pennsylvania made up of Mike (Robert De Niro), Nick (Christopher Walken), Stan (John Cazle), and Steven (John Savage). Mike, Nick and Steven go off to Vietnam and are forever changed. The problem is the war section of the film is really bad making for a very uneven story.<br /><br />The first problem is Mike, Nick and Stan all go to Vietnam. That makes no sense because all the actors are in their 30s far too old to be going to war.<br /><br />In Vietnam they get captured and psychologically tortured by the Vietnamese. Why? At first it seems like it’s just the Communists being evil, but then it turns out that the Vietnamese are just vile overall. Typical Hollywood. In fact the whole Vietnam section of the film is really poorly written with a series of unbelievable sequences. Ironically it’s what made the film famous.<br /><br />The best part of the movie is the last third which is about how the friends suffered trauma from the war and couldn’t adjust to their normal lives. Then they have to ruin that by going back to Vietnam.<br /><br />If the writers had dropped all the parts in Vietnam this movie would have been a lot better. When the movie came out the in 1978 the war was still a very bitter memory in America so it was easy to villainize the Vietnamese and come up with all kinds of crazy things that happened there. Today it just doesn’t really work.<br />C

1st and still one of the greates Bond films

Three blind men kill a British agent in Jamaica. Then his secretary is murdered as well so that some men might steal the file on Dr. No. Bond is sent to investigate in the very first Bond film released in 1962.<br /><br />The movie introduced some of the key characters of the Bond franchise. You had M (Bernard Lee) as Bond’s boss at MI6 who appreciated his work, but was always tired of his antics. There was M’s secretary Miss Moneypenny (Louis Maxwell) who always fired with Bond. There was Felix Leiter (Jack Lord) the CIA agent who often worked with the British agent. Finally you have plenty of Bond women from Sylvia Trench (Eunice Gayson) who Bond was playing Bacharach with at the start to Miss Taro (Zena Marshall) who was actually an agent of Dr. No to Honey Rider (Ursula Andress) who will always go down as one of the finest Bond women in history.<br /><br />This is why this film is so important. It set all the elements that would be used in all the subsequent releases. There’s Bond as the debonair playboy seducing women left and right. There’s the espionage and murder, which is his trade. There’s the Americans who are aiding the British rather than being the top dogs. There’s the home office that play it straight and are always a bit miffed at Bond and his recklessness. This all leads to the action as Bond hunts down Dr. No, who is also hunting him. Ian Flemming was a racist and filled his stories with stereotypes of non-whites. That was taken up by the early Bond films, with Dr. No being the cunning and plotting Oriental, actually a white guy with make up, being a perfect example. Of course there’s got to be Bond girls and that is personified by the impeccable Ursula Andress, who by the way had her voice dubbed by a British actress because the director didn’t think her accent would be understandable by a large audience. Together this makes Dr. No not only the origins of the entire franchise, but one of the best releases as well.<br />C

One of the better adaptations of HP Lovecraft's work

Some S&M and a human sacrifice is how Crimson Cult begins. It’s based upon a short story by H.P. Lovecraft which explains a lot.

Classic odd couple/buddy cop film pairing the crazy Mel Gibson with wisened Danny Glover

Lethal Weapon is a classic odd couple/buddy cop movie. Mel Gibson plays the brash and crazy cop to Danny Glover’s old wisened one.

Great start and then the story falls apart

I didn’t even know about this Alfred Hitchcock movie until now. I liked the start because it begins with a lot of deception. Paul Newman is a professor who starts getting mysterious messages which arouses the suspicion of his fiancé Julie Andrews. The gist of the movie is that it is about Cold War espionage which gets screwed up when Andrews goes where she’s not supposed to and messes up Newman’s plans. Then there are some great scenic shots of Newman contrasted against a huge hall with Roman tiles and then against a large farm. The story ends up falling apart however with unbelievable sequences and even a random character thrown in. It’s a shame because Torn Curtain showed real promise at the start.

Volcano turned out to be best part of movie which isn't saying much

Hollywood loves disaster movies so why not make one about an ancient event. What did they do? They broke it up into three stories, one about a gladiator to add some action, one about a forbidden love story between the gladiator and a rich woman, and then the volcano. The gladiator part if passable. The love story is unnecessary. The volcano turned out to be the star of the show which isn’t saying much. I also have to mention that Kiefer Sutherland’s performance as a ruthless Roman senator was really overdone.

2 sides of Brad Pitt an IRA militant while trying to fit in as guest of Harrison Ford in NYC

Devil’s Own is about the two sides of Brad Pitt. On the one hand he’s an IRA militant planning on returning to Ireland to continue the fight against the British. On the other he’s staying with Harrison Ford, who doesn’t know his background, in New York City trying to fit into his new surroundings. One minute Pitt’s talking to Irish-Americans about the money they’re supposed to have for the IRA, the next he’s playing pool with Ford in a bar. Of course the two sides eventually collide and that leads to most of the action in the story. There’s little on the IRA or Northern Ireland because it’s all about the relationship between Ford and Pitt.

Liked the story and the famous match

The premise of the movie is that Bjorn and McEnroe were polar opposites. Bjorn was the proven champion having won Wimbledon four times. He was also always calm and collected like he had a Zen attitude about him. McEnroe was the upstart underdog who was famous for blowing up during matches. The point of the film however is to show how they were actually much alike. As soon as they show Bjorn as a kid you see what they’re trying to do.<br /><br />The finale is the Wimbledon championship game between the two. They make it as exciting as possible and lives up to the legendary game it was. That’s important because it’s tough making sprots scenes especially something like tennis where it’s just two players.<br /><br />I thoroughly enjoyed the story and the famous match.

Just a badly conceived movie

Gary Oldman is what drew me into this movie. He brings his usual intensity to his role as a cocky lawyer who gets caught up with a serial killer. The problem is the entire plot is based upon Oldman acting unethically. It never got better. As a result I quickly lost interest.

Guy Ritchie adds his flare and twists to this classic story

Vortigern (Jude Law) makes a deal with an evil spirit for power and kills his brother King Pendragon (Eric Bana). Pendragon’s son Arthur (Charlie Hunnam) escapes however. He is raised in a brothel to hide his identity where he learns about thieving, extortion as well as fighting. When he’s older he finds out his legacy and comes to challenge the king. This is the opening of Guy Ritchie’s version of the King Arthur film. It’s a typical tale of good vs evil with some of Richie’s flare which he’s been missing in a lot of his other movies recently.<br /><br />Even though it’s a fantasy film King Arthur includes three of Ritchie’s favorite themes from his early work: crime, witty dialogue and sarcasm. Arthur’s early life provides the first while the second is portrayed in several scenes where Hunnam relays a story by talking fast and doing all the voices while making wise cracks and jokes. Later Arthur carries out an insurgency against Vortigern where Arthur makes light of serious situations. Ritchie has been hit and miss with a lot of his movies these days, but this one captured some of his better elements that he showed when he first got started.<br /><br />Of course there’s a lot of action scenes and some magic and monsters thrown in as well. The opening scene after all is a magician attacking King Pendragon’s castle with giant elephants.<br /><br />I like Ritchie’s twist on this classic tale. It captures some of his best film making instincts.<br />C

Last of original Godzilla series went out with a bang

I don’t know where they got this title from because there was never a Revenge of Mechagodzilla movie. This is actually 1975’s Terror of Mechagodzilla, which was the last film released in the original Godzilla series and saw the return of Ishiro Honda who’d done the 1954 Godzilla film return as director.<br /><br />The movie starts with a synopsis of Godzilla’s emergence and his transformation from a threat to the Earth to its savior when aliens started trying to invade. That leads to scenes from the previous movie Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla to re-introduce the latest aliens and their robot. This was all added for the American release.<br /><br />This time the aliens found an Earthling to help them out Dr. Shinji Mafune (Akihiko Hirata) who was discredited as a marine biologist and therefore held a grudge against society. He discovered an undersea dinosaur called Titanosaurus who will help Mechagodzilla take on Godzilla.<br /><br />The first half of the movie is all about Titanosaurus. Then Godzilla shows up to fight it and it’s not until the last third that Mechagodzilla finally emerges. In usual Toho fashion you’ve got guys in plastic suits smashing things and a bunch of tanks and planes trying to blow them up. For being the last of the initial Godzilla films it definitely went out with a bang.<br />C

So they team mechagodzilla and Titanosaurus toughened to destroy japan. So japan must depend on Godzilla to save japan and the world.

"We were really fighting ourselves"

Platoon was Oliver Stone’s opus on the Vietnam War. The opening shows what the story will be about. Charlie Sheen is arriving to Vietnam and as soon as he gets off the plane he sees body bags and soldiers leaving who look like they’ve gone through hell. The movie compares two squads in the same company against each other one led by Willem Dafoe and the other by Tom Berenger. One embraces his men the other uses fear and intimidation. As Sheen says at the end “We were really fighting ourselves”. Like a lot of Vietnam flicks it shows how the U.S. soldiers lost their humanity and didn’t see the Vietnamese as people. There’s plenty of combat as well. It’s definitely one of Stone’s better movies.

Didnt expect much but had real laughs and tore up Asian American stereotypes

Two friends Casey (Skylar Astin) and Miller (Miles Teller) take their friend Jeff (Justin Chon) out for his 21st birthday. Jeff is a straight A student with an overbearing dad who only cares about him getting a professional job. Miller is a screw off, Casey is becoming an adult, and Jeff needs a release from all the pressure that he’s been under. The odd trio is the basis for the film.<br /><br />The movie is your usual college guys low brow hijinks. The reason why I watched it was Justin Chon who made a great independent film called Gook. The movie presents Jeff as your typical Asian American stereotype and then breaks it all down. He parties until he passes out. It turns out he’s flunking out of school. He got arrested for attempted murder.<br /><br />On top of that there are some actual laughs in the film. One example is when Jeff is passed out and Casey and Miller stuff him in the front window of a mini-car. Another time they go to Jeff’s ex-dorm and ask an Asian girl if she knew Jeff. She cusses them out, says all Asians don’t know each other, then realizes she does know Jeff, explains how he’s a complete screw up, all the while laying down more insults to Casey and Miller.<br /><br />I had low expectations for this movie, but it was actually enjoyable. There were some real laughs and Jeff’s character got to tear up images of Asian Americans.<br />C

One of Jet Li's best Western films because it comes with plenty of great choreographed fights

Kiss of the Dragon might be Jet Li’s top Western movie. That’s because the action comes fast and furious. It’s some of the best choreography he’d been given since expanding into international productions.<br /><br />The story focuses around Jet Li as Chinese agent Liu Siu-Jian who is set up by a corrupt French police detective Inspector Richard (Tcheky Karyo). Liu gets chased around Paris and eventually meets up with a prostitute named Jessica (Bridget Fonda) who is being exploited by Richard.<br /><br />Li gets to punch, kick and flip a bunch of Richard’s henchmen, while the inspector and his fellow officers get to discharge a large amount of ammunition.

Strong performance by Samuel L Jackson is this crime drama

Samuel L. Jackson runs a company that cleans up crime scenes, specifically murders. He gets a job at a wealthy house but then worries he might have covered something up and be involved in a scandal.<br /><br />Jackson’s character is nuanced. He has a lot of regret and angst about what he might have done. He’s also dealing with the loss of his wife and his young daughter played by Keke Palmer. He’s got some other strong support from Eva Mendes, Ed Harris and Luis Guzman. It makes for a good crime drama.

Heartless face of capitalism

Based upon a play by David Mamet who also did the screenplay Glengarry Glen Ross is about four struggling salesmen Richard (Al Pacino), Shelley (Jack Lemmon), Dave (Ed Harris), and George (Alan Arkin) who are told they’re going to be fired if they don’t turn around their sales numbers. Blake (Alec Baldwin) shows up from their corporate office with the good news while calling them out as failures. The movie is about the heartless face of capitalism.<br /><br />The tone of the film is set when Blake is introduced. He cusses out the salesman, brags about how much money he has and how many expensive material possessions he owns. He rubs his wealth in their faces not to say that they can be like him but rather the opposite that they will never have what he has. It’s not a motivational speech but rather a death sentence,<br /><br />The salesmen respond by complaining and whining but then they hit the phones. That shows their techniques which is to lie and cajole people into buying real estate from them. They do spam calls before the term was invented.<br /><br />The movie explores how the system is failing these salesmen. One offers to bribe his boss to get good leads to increase his sales. Another thinks about stealing them. They come up with these ideas because they know they can’t win. That’s the message of the movie that capitalism is often not full of the wealth and opportunity that it promises.<br />C

Despite the last samurai being Tom Cruise the movie is still enjoyable

Only in Hollywood is the Last Samurai a white American Tom Cruise! The movie industry can’t seem to help itself but tell an Asian story through white eyes. Despite that this movie is still good. The story is based upon the Satsuma Rebellion when samurai who were being forced out of their position as administrators of the country rose up against the Meiji Restoration which was modernizing and westernizing the country. Captain Nathan Algren is a drunk former American army officer who is brought to Japan as a military advisor to the government but ends up joining a rebellion led by Ken Watanabe as Lord Katsumoto Moritsugu.<br /><br />Algren is an interesting character. His experiences in the Indian wars sets up his change of heart in Japan. In one scene for instance, he’s having a flashback to where he and U.S. soldiers were attacking a Native American village and slaughtering women and children. That filled him with a great sense of regret and guilt, especially because he was called a hero for what he did. When he comes to Japan and sees real heroism in Moritsugu he’s not only impressed but feels like he can redeem himself by joining Moritsugu’s cause. Of course the movie does a lot to romanticize Moritsugu since he’s the co-star of the movie. The claim that he didn’t use guns for example is just a fiction made for the movie to make him be like a noble native going up against the forces of modernity.<br /><br />There’s some very predictable moments in the film such as a love story and of course Algren’s acceptance by Moritsugu.<br /><br />There’s also the fact that the Samurais were explained through Algren’s eyes which of course is how Hollywood works too often.<br /><br />The highlights are the training and the fighting. There are even ninjas thrown in at one point and a huge battle at the end.<br /><br />Despite its deep flaws the movie is still enjoyable.<br />C

Great comeback for Wolverine franchise after horrible X-Men Origins Wolverine film

The 2013 film The Wolverine made up for the absolutely horrible 2009 release X-Men Origins: Wolverine. The Wolverine was loosely based upon the short run 1982 Wolverine comic by Chris Claremont and Frank Miller. It borrowed the characters Logan played by Hugh Jackman, Mariko Yashida played by Tao Okamoto, and the Silver Samurai played by Haruhiko Yamanouchi. Only the most basic ideas however were taken such as the love affair between Logan and Mariko, and the fact that Wolverine and the Silver Samurai fight, otherwise it was an original plot by Mark Bomback and Scott Frank. It centered around a debt between Logan and the Yashida’s that turned out to be a true test for the Wolverine.<br /><br />Logan’s tangles with the Yashidas takes him across Japan and involves all kinds of great scenes. For example, the funeral of Ichiro gets interrupted by the Japanese mafia, the Yakuza. That leads from the temple where the ceremony is being held into a great scene upon a bullet train. There’s also the intrigue between the different generations of the Yashidas. Ichiro favored Mariko which causes resentment by her father.<br /><br />There’s a slight lull in the middle when the story focuses upon Logan and Mariko relationship that could have been cut down a bit, but otherwise this is a really great Marvel film with a strong story and nice action.<br />C

Less of a story than Chapter 2 but a better movie

It is extremely hard for a film franchise to maintain its intensity. That is not true for John Wick. As unbelievable as it might sound but Chapter 3 was even better than Chapter 2. The one thing that has faded however is the story.<br /><br />Chapter 1 had the fullest plot with Wick seeking revenge for the desecration of the memory of his dead wife. Chapter 2 was about following the rules of the assassins’ world Wick lives within, and then ultimately breaking them. The story was thin at best in that chapter, but made up for it with some amazing action. Chapter 3 you would expect would be more of the same, but it wasn’t. I have never heard as many oohs and ahhs in a movie theater as I did opening night of John Wick Chapter 3. The director took the action to an unbelievable level.<br /><br />The theme of this chapter is consequences. Again, like Chapter 2 things begin where the last movie ended. Wick has been excommunicated by the assassins for breaking the rules and was given a one hour reprieve by the head of the New York Continental, Winston played by Ian McShane. He must find a way out with a whole city after him. That chase scene that goes through various locations had some of the most incredible fight scenes put to film. The choreography and just ingenious methods they employed will blow your mind.<br /><br />Wick then goes to various countries and locations searching for a way to escape the consequences of his actions in Chapter 2. Of special note is Mark Dacascos as Zero hired to kill Wick. He added new dimensions to the classic villain with the hilarious lines and situations they put him in. The ending scene inside the New York Continental where Wick has to ascend a series of stairs before getting to Dacascos I’m sure was inspired by Bruce Lee’s last and posthumous film, Game of Death. Amazingly there is even less of a story to this chapter than the previous one and yet it was actually better.<br />C

The nightmare of being in solitary confinement

Caged is a powerful movie about Edi Gathegi being placed in solitary confinement in prison. It plays out like a horror film as he begins seeing things and questioning his reality.

Over the top action flick that was just a little too long

The great Tsui Hark directed this movie. It’s about the power hungry empress plotting against the country’s top magistrate Dee. There’s comic book like villains.

People are supposed to revel in the cruelty of the rich

Cruel Intentions is about the kind of characters I hate. Rich people who think because they have money and can buy things they can do the same with people. The story is about Ryan Phillippe and Sarah Michelle Gellar trying to destroy the lives of other teenagers through manipulation and sex. I know a lot of people have been brought up to look up to the rich and famous and watch movies like this and revel in how evil the upper class can be but it’s just nauseating to me. Some might bring up the ending as a redemption but I still had to sit through the whole movie to get there.

"Waiting for evil"

Super is a James Gunn film featuring Rainn Wilson who loses his wife Liv Tyler to Kevin Bacon. Afterward he believes he’s touched by God to become a superhero. The first thing that stands out is the cast. Besides Wilson, Tyler and Bacon there’s Elliot Page, Gregg Henry, Michael Rooker, and Andre Royo. Page especially shines getting totally out of control over Wilson being a superhero. Second, when Wilson becomes a superhero it’s pretty funny as it should be. He makes his own costume, hangs out behind a dumpster recording his thoughts and “waiting for evil.” That takes a turn later on as the violence does get graphic. Overall it’s a fun story.

Story about science gone wrong based upon HP Lovecraft but does have its issues

From Beyond was based upon an H.P. Lovecraft story where a scientist Dr. Crawford Tillinghast (Jeffrey Combs) events a gateway to another dimension that’s full of monsters. Dr. Katherine McMichaels (Barbara Crampton) wants him to re-create the experiment which of course leads to nothing but trouble.<br /><br />The story focuses upon science gone wrong with scientists losing sight of what they were doing and ignoring the consequences. Besides the monsters people also get transformed. The effects although dated today were pretty crazy and groundbreaking for their time.<br /><br />The movie does take the suspension of belief however such as when a doctor finds a protruding third eye in Tillinghast’s head and just leaves it alone. There are other moments like that that mar the story.<br /><br />This was also director Stuart Gordon’s second film and had some similarities with his first release The Re-Animator in terms of look and style. That’s kind of hard to ignore since they both featured Jeffrey Combs as the lead.<br />C

A comedy of errors in a hostage crisis

Ethan Hawke is an American who decides to stick up a bank in Stockholm, Sweden and take some hostages to free his friend Gunnar Sorensson (Mark Strong) from prison. Hawke plays a free-wheeling loose cannon. It’s a crazy story because seeing how he acted there’s no way you would think he could ever be successful. The actor that plays the police chief Christopher Heyerdahl is little better. He actually taunts Hawke. It’s like a comedy of errors. It definitely makes for an interesting story.

Still in WOakland Still with the jokes Still interesting

Blindspotting was my FAV movie of 2018. I was excited to find out that that co-creators/stars Rafael Casal and Daveed Diggs got a spin off deal with STARZ to make it into a series. The show is still based in West Oakland, and this time Jasmine Cephas and her son Atticus Woodward are the main characters along with some new ones like Helen Hunt. It tries to capture some of the feel of the original like spoken word parts this time by Cephas, along with plenty of jokes. It also adds some surrealism like when movers bust out in dance to a Jazz tune. I’m not so hot on that part but the story is interesting, the jokes are still hitting and I’m excited to see where it goes after the first episode dropped.

Could be Iraq except its fighting in LA vs aliens

Battle Los Angeles is a war movie with a twist. Instead of the United States fighting a foreign power they’re fighting aliens. Instead of the battle being in some far flung country it takes place on the streets of Los Angeles. It basically took the premise of the old H.G. Wells story War of the World and made it up to date and adapted it to a military film.<br /><br />Everything is like a traditional war flick. There are the troops, the comradery, the conflicts with the commander, the green soldiers versus the savvy veterans, the action, the losses, the inspirational speeches, and sacrifices. That’s with the additions of spaceships, ray guns, etc. It’s all done very well. The aliens are interesting. There’s some real tension during the fight, the special effects were done well, and it has a dramatic ending. What more could you ask for in an action flick?

You love watching McClane take down the bad guys

New York police officer John McClane (Bruce Willis) went to visit his estranged wife Holly (Bonnie Bedelia) in Los Angeles for Christmas. The party her company The Nakatomi Corporation throws is taken over by a group of terrorists led by Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman). McClane becomes a one man police force running through the building to stop the criminals. Thus began the Die Hard franchise.<br /><br />McClane and Gruber drove most of the story. McClane for example taunts Gruber by killing members of his team and leaving messages on their bodies like “Now I have a machine gun Ho-Ho-Ho.” Gruber plays the suave terrorist leader. There are a couple of jerks thrown in as well for the audience to root against including the deputy police chief Robinson played by Paul Gleason who specialized in those types of roles. Yeah there’s also some bad writing thrown in there as well, but you’re watching this to see McClane take down the bad guys not what people say.<br />C

More abou tthe huamns than the Kaiju

A vengeful high school girl who lost her parents to Gamera decides to raise a monster she calls Iris to get her revenge. The previous 2 Gamera movies were pretty good but this one immediately runs into problems. That’s because it’s more about the humans and not the Kaiju. They try to show how Gamera might be a defender of humans but it comes with a price and then goes into the story of the girl. It’s not until the last 20 minutes that the Gamera vs Iris battle happens. That makes this a big disappointment.

Good adventure of 2 individual stories but completely misses the bigger picture about WWI

1917 might seem like an attempt by director Sam Mende’s to create an epic war film but it’s not. It’s actually an adventure film about two British privates George MacKay and Dean-Charles Chapman sent on a mission through no man’s land to stop an attack. The movie starts out with the mud and grime of the trenches which is familiar to most that have seen a WWI film, but then throws the two into a number of unforeseen situations because much of the movie takes place in no man’s land. As a tale of two individuals soldiers it works. I think it could have done more with the bigger picture about the war. It was the deadliest and most senseless of modern conflicts but 1917 only gives a small hint about what it was like. I think this was a major flaw and missed opportunity.

Adapt or die to life in Humboldt County

This is the kind of quirky, off beat comedy-drama that I usually like. Jeremy Strong falls asleep in Fairuza Balk’s car and wakes up in Humboldt, California. That’s where he meets little girls who give him the definition of drug terms and old ladies telling him about what’s wrong with leashing dogs. The dilemma and theme is whether he can adapt or not as he plays the uptight, straight laced guy now surrounded by people who are laid back and growing a lot of weed. The part I liked the most was the cast of characters he runs into probably the best one being Brad Dourif who plays the father figure and man of wisdom. The story also gets more serious as it progresses with a very melancholy ending. Not bad.

The utter misery of being a submariner in perhaps the greatest war film of all time

It’s been so long since I’ve seen this movie I can’t tell what’s different from the original and this the Director’s Cut. What I do know is that this is an amazing war film. It’s main theme is the tension that is created by being on a submarine for weeks on end. Being chased by enemy boats. Not doing anything but the same routine over and over. The differences within the crew, etc. are all played upon. Rather than stress the action Das Boot stresses the misery of a submariner.<br /><br />The production on the film was also incredible. At the start they re-created a German submarine base with several subs and then had a real size submarine roll out. The inside of the boat was also full of smoked and cured meat for their mission not something you’ll never see in another film.<br /><br />Overall Das Boot is full of both humanity and utter tragedy and is a must see if you like war films.

Part mystery part political thriller part martial arts action

Detective Dee And The Mystery of the Phantom Flame is a Tsui Hark film. It begins in 689 AD when the Empress Wu (Carina Lau) was about to be crowned the ruling monarch. Elements within the court however refused to follow a woman and plotted against her. That led to two mysterious deaths. Disgraced Detective Dee (Andy Lau) is brought back from exile to figure out the case. The movie is part mystery, part political intrigue, and part martial arts action.<br /><br />The movie works because it seamlessly blends its three elements. At one moment Dee can be sifting through evidence and the next he’s attacked leading to an action sequence. There’s also an interesting mix of characters. The empress for instance is both a schemer but shows feelings for those close to her. There are twists and turns in the story like any good mystery, and plenty of big action sequences helped out by special effects. It’s really a top notch Chinese period piece with a strong story and cast.<br />C

A dad learns how to stand up for his son

Joe Bell is based upon a true story where Bell/Mark Wahlberg walked across America to fight against discrimination after his son/Reid Miller was bullied for being gay. The movie has a very realistic feel to it. There’s the awakening of Wahlberg to the fact that he had to stand up for his son. At first he told him to just keep his head down and that he could get through things. Then when Wahlberg starts his travels he has no idea what he’s doing from how to give speeches to who he should be targeting, etc. It’s a very touching and bittersweet story.

Story of a 12 yr old who doesn't care about anything but riding the streets

This documentary is just as much about the kid they follow named Pug as the 12 O’Clock Boys bike club in Baltimore. When the movie starts Pug is 12 and desperately wants to join the 12 O’Clock Boys so he can ride the streets with them and get the attention and excitement that came with it. It’s a story of how he feels rebellious and is obsessed with bikes more than anything else including school where he constantly gets in trouble. It also gives a bigger picture of how the city felt the bike clubs were a nuisance and tried to stop them with the police which was a complete waste of time and money because they could hardly ever catch anyone. It was still a battle for the streets between the two and added to the outlaw image the gangs had, which of course drew more young people to join.

Peter Jackson really brought Tolkien's words to life

Each one of the Lord of the Rings films had a theme. For this, the first one it was the toll the quest to destroy the Ring would take upon the Fellowship made up of Frodo, Gandalf, Aragorn, Samwise, Gimli, Pippin, Merry, Legolas, and Boromir. They would lose members and break apart raising the question of whether they could fulfill their task right at the start.<br /><br />The reason for the Fellowship was the coming evil which so many in Middle Earth, the name for Tolkien’s world, were unaware of. Frodo and his friends gained knowledge of this threat when they run into the Nazgul, the cursed souls of dead human kings who worked for Sauron. There’s a great scene where Frodo, Samwise, Merry and Pippin are hiding from one of them and all kinds of bugs start literally crawling out of the woodwork drawn by the dark presence. It was creepy and did a great job conveying the evil and challenges that the characters would face.<br /><br />The movie didn’t stick exactly to the book, but it was still an amazing adventure. Besides Sauron and the Nazgul there are Orcs and demons representing evil. There’s magic in the form of the wizards Gandalf and Saruman. There are Elves and Dwarves. There’s betrayal. There’s swordplay. There’s wonder. It’s all a great mix and Peter Jackson really did an outstanding job bringing to life Tolkien’s words into life in this movie.<br />C

Better and improved 2.0 version of G.I. Joe

The second installment of G.I. Joe was much better than the initial release. I liked the first one but there were some cheesy moments. This one is more serious and the story and action are better overall. My favorite part was the big showdown between Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes which Jink later joined in and turned into a race down the side of the Himilayas against Cobra ninjas. Yeah it involved a lot of CGI but it was dramatic and fun.

Who are the humans and who are the wolves in society?

Jin-Roh is based upon a re-imagining of the history of post-war Japan. In this version economic growth led to huge gaps between the rich and poor, caused a crime wave and led to protests and an insurgency against the government. The capital police were a special unit created to restore order.<br /><br />The movie has several themes. One is the repression of the state. That’s emphasized by the special unit which have armor, helmets and weapons that make them appear like futuristic Nazi storm troopers. Another is regret as the main character a policeman named Kazuki Fuse is haunted by the death of a young girl he witnessed. Next, is the struggle for power which is only revealed at the end after a big plot twist. That definitely caught me by surprise and was some good writing. Finally, the story plays upon the fable of Red Riding Hood by asking who are the humans and who are the wolves in society. It’s all very well done.

Satisfying remake of Zatoichi with a gangster double feature

Zatoichi was one of the classic period piece franchises in 1960s-70s Japanese cinema with over 20 releases and a TV series. Since so many older films were being re-made in the 2000s it was only natural that someone would do Zatoichi. That resulted in The Blind Swordsman: Zatoichi by director Takeshi Kitano featuring himself in the classic role.<br /><br />Every original Zatoichi film had some basic elements. First, there were some Yakuza (gangsters), because that was the crowd Zatoichi ran with. Next there were the gambling dens that the gangs ran, which Zatoichi would always frequent. Third, common people were always featured instead of the samurai and upper class that most Japanese films focused upon. There was always a woman that had fallen on hard times that Zatoichi tried to redeem. Finally, there was swordplay with Zatoichi killing numerous Yakuza and usually a ronin (a masterless samurai). The 2003 version used all of those elements.<br /><br />Director Kitano also had some really beautiful shots such as farmers plowing away on their field with the sounds of their tools making the beat of the background music.<br /><br />While I enjoyed the remake I thought the one major flaw was that Takeshi Kitano didn’t bring more character to Zatoichi. The original actor Shintaro Katsu had a real way with Zatoichi in how he looked and how he interacted with people. He was always happy and playful until a conflict emerged. Takeshi Kitano is more quiet and reserved. Still, this was a fine adaptation and a good story.<br /><br />This actually comes as a double feature with Takeshi Kitano’s Sonatine. Here he plays a gangster. He starts off knocking off a couple people and then travels to Okinawa where there’s a war going on. He gets there and stays in a dump. He’s told there’s no real conflict going on, and his men sit around in cars and go out to eat just waiting for something to happen. Finally, a bomb goes off to let them know the other side means business.<br /><br />The movie actually focuses more upon the downtimes. Takeshi and his men go into hiding. They get so bored they start playing games and tricks on each other. Still, there are little flashes of violence like when Takeshi comes across a man trying to rape woman. He ends up shooting the man whose last words are “This is a bad joke.” This is supposed to compare the two sides of the gangsters, their violent criminal side with their human one. The ending relates to this as Takeshi seemingly gets his way in the gang war, but is not fulfilled.<br />C

Cult classic of woman born to exact revenge for her family

Lady Snowblood is a Japanese cult classic focusing upon revenge. Yuki Kashima’s (Meiko Kaji) father was killed and her mother repeatedly raped by a group of criminals. Yuki was born in prison for the expressed purpose of carrying out her mother’s vendetta against those that wronged her.<br /><br />The movie flashes back and forth between the past and present. In the former it shows what happened to Yuki’s parents and her upbringing to be a killer. In the present she hunts down the four criminals to kill them with her cane sword. In the second scene she cuts down one of her victims. He asks her why she did it. She says for revenge for the powerless people he made suffer. That lays out her role as the avenging angel. The training scenes are really good as well because they’re like sessions for ninjas rather than samurais.<br /><br />If you’re a movie nerd you’ll recognize that the theme song was used by Quinten Tarantino in Kill Bill Vol. 1 when The Bride has her final battle with O-Ren Ishii. In fact the snow in that scene is inspired by Lady Snowblood as well.<br />C

What are people willing to sacrifice to achieve their goals?

Part 2 of Season 4 of Vikings jumps ahead in years and is about the return of the king. King Ragnar comes back after a long absence to find that his family and friends have all found their own futures and fates without him. This is a passing of the torch as the series now comes to be about other characters and their ambitions. Like Part 1 the emphasis is on the development of the ensemble cast and less on the fighting and bloodshed. There is however a giant war at the end. What the story comes down to is what people are willing to sacrifice and there are some big ones by major characters.

Not as good as others in the franchise

If you’re ever asked what was Jennifer Anniston’s first big role you can say it was in the low budget horror flick Leprechaun. She’s in a ridiculous role throwing herself at a handyman who walks around with a shirt without sleeves and talking about how she’s not in the city and can’t get a salad, etc. I think some of the later Leprechaun movies are actually better than this one because it lacked the flair and ridiculousness of those others.

What a disappointment Barely any story and badly written

This movie suffers from a really bad script. The story is about some white supremacists that Jim Brown, Fred Williamson and Jim Kelly try to stop. It barely deals with the plot and is mostly the trio being chased around by henchmen. The bad writing pops up all the time like when Brown shoots at one car and then two of them crash off the top off a high rise parking garage or when Williamson tackles Brown and only recognizes him when Brown says his name even though they’re friends. The good parts are few and far between. One of the best is Kelly beating up a bunch of cops. Another time the Impressions who did the soundtrack sing a song in a studio. I was really excited to see this movie because I wanted to see Brown, Williamson and Kelly team up but this was a really bad vehicle for them. Even most of the action sequences are badly done.

This melodrama has not aged well

Ivanhoe derived from the myths of King Richard the Lionhearted and Robin Hood. Ivanhoe/Robert Taylor is a Saxon knight trying to free King Richard while outsmarting the Normans who conquered England. It’s an interesting story because it includes not only the Norman-Saxon divide which was dealt with in Robin Hood but also Jews and Christians cooperating together. The story relies heavily upon melodrama with Elizabeth Taylor and Joan Fontaine both in love with Taylor. This is no Adventures of Robin Hood starring Errol Flynn which was full of action and fun with Flynn playing the flamboyant hero throwing insults and jokes left and right. Unlike that film Ivanhoe has not aged well.

A female CIA analysts determination drives this realistic film on the hunt for bin Laden

Zero Dark Thirty is a fictionalized account of the hunt for Osama bin Laden. It starred Jessica Chastain as Maya a CIA analyst obsessed with finding the Al Qaeda leader. The movie is like a police procedural as Maya meticulously goes through interviews, wire taps, and other sources of intelligence to try to find where bin Laden was hiding. It also shows the dark side of the War on Terror with the torture that the CIA employed on Al Qaeda members. Maya’s determination to find the terrorist leader is what drives the entire plot.<br /><br />The whole movie is based upon Maya’s relentless pursuit of bin Laden. She pushed the issue when her superiors appeared disinterested. Her life was threatened when she was stationed in Pakistan doing her work, but she wouldn’t quit. Chastain starred here showing a strong woman lead. It also was much more realistic than your typical Hollywood film that shows analysts who work at a desk usually out in the field shooting people.<br /><br />There were also some very powerful scenes. The first shows the CIA torturing a captured Al Qaeda operative named Ammar. They string him up so he has to stand. They blast loud music so he can’t sleep or concentrate. They waterboard him. They force him into a small box for not answering a question. Then they trick him by saying that he gave up some names of his brethren and then he starts divulging some secrets. He eventually gave Maya the name of a courier that bin Laden used. This was one of the most controversial parts of the film and was loosely based upon the real life Al Qaeda operative Abu Zubaydah. The U.S. thought he was a leader in Al Qaeda but he turned out not only to just be a facilitator but he was mentally unstable as well. He was the first terrorist to be tortured by the U.S. His case led to a debate over whether he talked because of the torture or because of being tricked. This is the same question that the movie raises. Later on the CIA also beat and waterboarded another Al Qaeda member Khalid Sheikh Mohammed who was the mastermind behind 9/11 and he said nothing.<br /><br />Overall, the gathering of intelligence and the analysis of its contents and Maya’s personality are what shine in the film. That might not seem like such a thriller but the way it was presented by director Kathryn Bigelow makes this a must see.<br />C

Black pilots fighting against racism during WWII marred by some over acting

Red Tails is about the Tuskegee Airmen a segregated all-black fighter squadron during World War II. At the start of the film there is a quote from a 1925 U.S. Army War College study that said, “Blacks are mentally inferior, by nature subservient, and cowards in the face of danger. They are therefore unfit for combat.” This represented a common racist view that justified segregation in the armed forces and keeping African Americans out of frontline units. There was such a demand for manpower during World War 2 however that the military was forced to loosen its rules and allowed units like the 332nd Fighter Group to be formed from a flight school at Tuskegee, Alabama. Besides plenty of air combat the film portrays the struggle the 332nd faced to be respected as pilots by a racist American Air Force and by whites in general.<br /><br />The war footage is all computer graphics but it’s effective. The one drawback is there is some real over acting especially by Terrance Howard. He gives a series of speeches which just make you shake your head because they are so overdone. Still, the story is compelling and an important part of American history about how blacks had to struggle and prove themselves to racists.<br />C

Only for John Ford lovers

John Ford was a famed Hollywood director especially known for his Westerns. What’s less known is his role in making films for the American war effort in World War II. This documentary attempts to fill that gap. It argues that Ford was always drawn to the American character and what better time to highlight that then during a war.<br /><br />The problem is this is a completely traditional documentary with voice overs and talking head after talking head. Not only that but the commentary gets as patriotic and propagandistic as the original films made during WWII claiming that American images and values are universal. There are also some really bad editing moves like going from talking about the Holocaust and the Nuremberg trials to the clothes Ford wore. Most importantly there’s only shot flashes of Ford’s work during the war.<br /><br />Overall this is a movie that only true Ford lovers need watch. The rest can skip it.

Directors in all 3 films had no idea how to create mood or tension with this great source material

This was the last in the trilogy of Swedish writer Stieg Larsson’s stories about Lisabeth Salander/Noomi Rapace. It starts off where the last one left off with Salander in the hospital after almost being killed by her father who tried to off her. It deals with the powers in Sweden who sponsored her dad and whether they could be exposed with the help of journalist Mikael Blomkvist/Michael Nyqvist. The story plays out like a mystery with Salander and Blomkvist trying to dig up dirt. The problem as ever is that director Daniel Alfredson who also did the previous movie had no idea how to create any mood or tension. There’s no dark lighting to match the content of the story. There’s not even a soundtrack to emphasize important scenes. That is the downfall of all three movies. There was this great material but not the director to translate it to the big screen.

An all time classic thriller

The Shining contained four outstanding elements. First, it had great source material being based upon a Stephen King book. Second, it was directed and co-written by the legend Stanley Kubrick. Third, it featured Jack Nicholson as writer Jack Torrance in one of his most memorable roles along with Shelly Duvall as his wife Wendy who did an incredible job as well. Finally, it created such a remarkable mood with thrills and scares it has become an all time classic.<br /><br />The story centers around the Torrances and their young son Danny (Danny Lloyd) staying at an isolated resort in the Colorado mountains during the winter. The resort is haunted and Jack starts going insane. The son begins seeing visions and repeating the phrase “Redrum” over and over. Wendy is terrified.<br /><br />The movie creates plenty of great scenes. There's Danny seeing twin girls in the hotel, Jack cusses out his wife for disturbing his writing, and of course the "Here's Johnny!" scene between Jack and Wendy. The score also gets louder and louder during these moments. Things eventually shift from the creepy to the insane by the end.<br /><br />It’s really one of the best thrillers out there with great performances and direction.

Derivative story from 1st Terminator but still a lot of fun

I have to admit when this came out in the theaters I had absolutely no interest in it. I thought the Terminator franchise had run its course and become cliché. I was pleasantly surprised by Darke Fate.<br /><br />The movie begins with a commentary by Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton). She says that she saved the world from Skynet and the Terminators exterminating humanity but then later in life a Terminator killed her son John. The story then flips to Mexico City and a woman named Daniella Ramos (Natalie Reyes). A super solider from the future named Grace (Mackenzie Davis) is sent to protect her and a Terminator (Gabriel Luna) sent to kill her. Like all the movies in the series the theme is that humans have to fend off their own destruction by their own hand.<br /><br />The story is thin and the film is almost all action as the Terminator chases down his prey. The fighting is well done and the Terminator is more powerful than ever with some added powers to it.<br /><br />The twist in the story is that Skynet never happened because of the actions of Sarah Connor but another Artificial Intelligence called Legion was made instead which created terminators that attacked humanity. That ties in with the theme of the franchise that human hubris sows its own destruction. Just like the first film as well the savior of that apocalypse is a woman, this time Ramos instead of Connor.<br /><br />Despite the derivative story the movie is quite good. Like usual that’s because of the action and the special effects that makes it appealing. Schwarzenegger even makes a guest appearance and gets in some good lines as usual.

Had nostalgia to bring in old fans and plenty of action & innovations to capture new ones

This was a great re-boot of the Star Trek franchise. It had enough nostalgia to satisfy the old fans that grew up watching the show on TV as well as including plenty of new faces and dangers to bring in a whole new crowd. The film emphasized the sacrifices the main characters had to make in their confrontation with a mysterious Romulan vessel.<br /><br />The start of the film establishes the main characters which are all based off the TV show. First there’s James Kirk (Chris Pine) the future captain of the U.S.S. Enterprise. He lost his father to the Romulans and as a result has been rebellious since an early age and into his adulthood when he joined the federation. Next is Spock (Zachary Quinto) who was split between his human and Vulcan side. While being logical as all Vulcans were he chose the Federation out of spite to those who looked down on him as a half-breed showing that he as all too human at times. The rest of the crew of the Enterprise are there as well such as the hotblooded Doctor Leonard “Bones” McCoy (Karl Urban), communications officer Uhura (Zoe Saldana), engineer Scotty (Simon Pegg), pilot Sulu (John Cho) and weapons officer Chekov (Anton Yelchin). There’s even a guest appearance by the original Spock Leonard Nimoy. Again, this was how the movie brought in the original audience by using all the old characters. They also maintained many of their famous lines like Spock talking about being logical, McCoy always complaining, etc. They even put Kirk with a green cadet at the Federation which was one of the old jokes about the TV program.<br /><br />There’s plenty of new material as well. They showed Kirk’s rebellious side at the academy for instance when he cheats on a famous simulation test. It’s hilarious. There’s also a lot more action than the show. It’s really well done and exciting such as when Sulu and Kirk have to make a space jump onto a small platform that the Romulans are using to try to destroy Vulcan. Sulu even gets to do a sword fight during that scene.<br /><br />Overall it’s a great mix of old and new. The story is compelling and it really introduced Star Trek to a new generation.<br />C

Well done female take on the Vampire genre

There are three parts to the Byzantium story. First it’s about two vampires Gemma Arterton and Saoirse Ronan being on the run in England. They drift from place to place seeking shelter, livelihood and blood. On the other hand it tells their origins story. That’s a distinctly female take on the Vampire genre. Arterton for instance was the first female vampire and shunned by the males as a result. Last there’s a coming of age element as Ronan who is the daughter of Arterton wants to break away from her mother and live her own life. Arterton and Ronan are both great in their roles. They are cast as opposites with Arterton being ruthless and Ronan being more caring. Their beginnings might be the best part of the story and the ending is good as well.

Watch out for Samuel L. Jackson's drug mixes

Samuel L. Jackson is a master chemist who makes new drugs. He double crosses a criminal played by Meatloaf and takes off to England to make another deal. Meatloaf wants payback and sends a female assassin played by Emily Mortimer. She chases Jackson along with his new friend Robert Carlyle across Liverpool in this action-comedy.<br /><br />The humor in the story is apparent from the start. Jackson gets pulled over in the 70s with a giant afro wearing a Dashiki and gives a policeman a joint with his special blend. Later Carlyle loses a chemist at a bar that was supposed to meet with Jackson. Carlyle tells his driver to find the chemist and take care of him. The problem is the driver thinks that means to kill the man. There’s some craziness thrown in as well like Jackson’s chemical blends.<br /><br />The story drags a bit in the middle but then it picks back up for an explosive ending. When you see the movie you’ll know what I’m talking about because it’s not what you think.<br />C

2 very smart and witty people find each other in an unlikely romance

Lindsay Fonseca spanks a guy in a diaper and then the theme song is a sweet, sweet 60s Soul tune. I was hooked. The story is a romantic comedy about Michael Doneger trying to write a story about Fonseca who is a prostitute. They’re very funny together with Fonseca constantly making fun of him. As the story progresses the two open up about each other and it just blooms from there. Each one is very smart and witty. Bruce Campbell plays the dad and I appreciate every time he’s on screen.

Sexism and police corruption in 1920s Los Angeles

The Changeling was directed by Clint Eastwood. It deals with sexism and corruption in 1920s Los Angeles. Angelina Jolie’s son goes missing and then the Los Angeles Police Department claims he found him when they didn’t. She is vilified and worse when she protests and complains to the authorities. It shows how society didn’t value women nor their opinions and how the police abused their authority. It’s pretty shocking what Jolie goes through. It paints the Los Angeles Police Department as a violent and lawless institution that did as it pleased. It’s an interesting twist because today it’s blacks and Latinos that complain about the LAPD but the movie has whites just as angered about its misdeeds.

A true sci-fi/horror classic

I love the stylistic moments at the start of this film. There’s a man with a smashed head in a machine and a bunch of blood. A phone ringing is dubbed in for a man’s scream when he sees the body which leads into the next scene. It’s a perfect set up for a truly classic horror/sci-fi film. The movie plays upon the old trope started by Mary Shelley that when Man tries to change nature it will strike back with devastating consequences for humanity.<br /><br />Patricia Owens is the real hero of the film. She stands by her husband David Hedison the scientist no matter what. She’s strong in the face of tragedy.

Single moms can find happiness love and have fun

Well Tyler Perry just quintupled his usual storyline in Single Mom’s Club. This time Cocoa Brown, Nia Long, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Amy Smart, and Zulay Henao are single mothers who all have problems with men either from not having a husband to being divorced, etc. That’s Perry’s usual schtick. What he skipped was Madea, church and music. I don’t mind that because two of those usually led to a lot of over dramatization that I hated about his plays. This also had Perry branching out with two white and one Latino characters. I liked it. There were funny moments and serious ones and it definitely highlighted some of the struggles of being a single mom.

Pimpin aint easy

The Mack was released in 1973 and was based upon a true story of an African American man in 1960s Oakland, California named Goldie (Max Julien). At the start of the movie he’s in a shootout with the police and ends up in prison. When he gets out he decides to become the city’s biggest mack, aka pimp. The movie stands out as one of the best blaxploitation films ever.<br /><br />That starts with short little sequences that give deep insights into the lifestyle of Goldie. For instance, there’s a scene of him in prison, which shows the mental torture he went through being locked up. He tells his friend that prison turns people into animals by dehumanizing them and then tells them they have to rehabilitate. Then when he gets out he meets up with his former boss who tells him he could be one of the biggest players in the city if he wanted to. He tells Goldie that controlling a woman’s mind is the way to control her body and being the best pimp. Then he gets harassed by the police who put him in jail saying they want him to mess up so they can arrest him all over again. The movie introduces Goldie’s brother Olinga (Roger Mosley) who is a black nationalist community leader. The film makes a contrast between Goldie who is a man of the streets and crime, and Olinga who was trying to clean up the neighborhood and empower the community. Other films included black nationalists like Shaft, but they were side characters, and usually just gunmen. Here the movement is given a prominent role throughout. Another issue was the white power structure that controlled crime in cities. The idea of being a pimp was being THE man with all the power and money, but that was a farce. They could only get so big because the power structure was still controlled by whites who had the final say. Finally, the movie comments on pimping. Goldie pulls up on a bunch of kids who idolize him for his car and money. They all tell him they want to be like him. He tells them he doesn’t ever want to hear that from them again, that they needed to have dreams outside the ghetto. While the movie is all about a pimp it’s not trying to glorify the profession. It shows the women, the money, the clothes, the cars, but also how cold blooded the pimp game is.<br /><br />Richard Pryor is also featured in the film as Goldie’s lieutenant.<br /><br />The Mack really does stand above many others in the genre. It shows the streets and the crime life, but it doesn’t glorify it.<br />C

The worst Farrelly brothers film

This movie did nothing for me. Jenna Fischer and Christina Applegate get sick of their husbands Owen Wilson and Jason Sudeikis and give them a week off from their marriage. The problem was the writing consistently fell flat. This was amazing to me because this was a Farrelly brothers production. There were two scenes that were over the top which showed they had a lot of freedom with this film but they couldn’t come up with the goods. There were only two really funny scenes and one was the closing. Other than that, I was actually bored.

Paints picture of a nice guy way over his head in a giant heist

A crook named Enzo Rotella (William Fichtner) hates President Richard Nixon so much that when he gets word of his illegal political slush fund in California he decides to put together a crew and rob it. The story actually has three parts. One is about Harry Barber (Travis Fimmel who was part of Rotella’s team and patterned himself after Steve McQueen hence the title. The other was about FBI Agent Howard Lambert (Forest Whitaker) and his investigation into the crime. In the background there’s the Watergate scandal. Part of the film was based upon true events.<br /><br />The movie has a very light mood. That means it never feels like a crime drama especially because it includes Barber’s time on the run and his love life. It’s more about how Barber was a good guy way over his head. There’s also a great soundtrack which helps sets the mood for the 1970s. It’s an enjoyable watch and definitely not what you expect from such a story.

Pretty mediocre Hammer release

Vampire Lovers was a joint American International-Hammer Films production and it wasn’t their strongest release.

Good to see Iggy Pop still alive and still performing

It’s great to see Iggy Pop alive after all these years and still performing. Like a lot of his contemporaries he did some hard drinking and drug taking in the past. The set was good with a pounding bass in all the tunes. I just wish they played more Stooges songs because those are my favs. Still it was a good set.

How will mutants respond to the hatred of humans?

The original X-Men movie was about fear of the other. Mutants were just becoming public knowledge in America and that led to fear and politicians to push the Mutant Registration Act that would make all mutants to sign up with the government to be controlled. The reaction to that took two forms. One was the X-Men led by Charles Xavier that wanted to protect mutants and help mankind at the same time and the other led by Magneto who wanted to fight humanity to protect mutants. This split actually harkens back to the origins of the X-Men with Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Originally the comic was about equal rights for African Americans with the mutants representing that group. Charles Xavier was Martin Luther King Jr and Magneto was Malcolm X. Magneto even says he will fight for mutant rights “By any means necessary” which was a famous phrase that Malcolm X used.<br /><br />The first part of the movie lays out all the mutant characters. Although the X-Men was the title, Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) was obviously the lead since he was always the favorite character in the comics. Then there’s Magneto’s plan and of course the big confrontation at the end.<br /><br />The movie does a good job balancing out the characters, the story and the action. This made it a very good introduction to what would become a very successful franchise.<br />C

Great thriller Octavia Spencer carries the film

Ma was a very original thriller. Octavia Spencer plays Ma an older woman who befriends a group of teens so that she can terrorize them. The movie sets the tone right from the start. Ma is overly friendly, offering to buy drinks for the kids, opening up her basement to them. Maggie (Diana Silvers) is the only one that seems to sense that this isn’t right. Things quickly escalate.<br /><br />Spencer does a great job in the lead. They don’t make her a one-dimensional stalker. There’s flashbacks to her time in high school which explains why she does what she does. She also shows her madness in her looks which can automatically switch from being cordial and out going and then switch to someone who is obviously bitter and crazy. All together that made Ma a great watch.<br />C

Great B-movie zombie flick from my childhood

Zombie was one of those films that I used to watch on a weekend afternoon on TV when I was a kid growing up. This was an Italian production. The movie begins with an apparently abandoned boat showing up in New York City harbor. That leads an investigation to a small Caribbean island where zombies are found conjured by voodoo.<br /><br />The movie definitely has a low budget feel to it but there are some great and memorable scenes. One is where a woman on the investigation goes scuba diving and finds a zombie walking on the floor of the ocean. A shark then comes along and the zombie takes a bite out of it. Another time a zombie drags a woman’s eye right into a piece of protruding wood tearing it out. Just because the film didn’t have a lot of money behind it didn’t mean it couldn’t come up with some great horror. There are more like that as well.<br /><br />If you’re a fan of zombie movies like Oscar Romero’s classics you’ll like Zombie.

So bad makes you question M Night Shyamalan's writing abilities

Everyone in New York City’s Central Park suddenly freezes and then when they come out of their temporary paralysis they start trying to kill each themselves. A few blocks away at a construction site workers begin jumping off the top of a building to their deaths. That’s the shocking opening of The Happening. The movie was written, directed and co-produced by M. Night Shyamalan. He’d had a series of hits like The Sixth Sense, but with this movie his big twist which was what he was known for was a complete dud.<br /><br />The Happening is set up as a thriller. The events in New York City begin spreading across the East Coast of the United States. Philadelphia science teacher Mr. Moore (Mark Wahlberg), his wife Alma (Zooey Deschanel), his friend Julian (John Leguizamo) and his daughter Ashlyn (Jess) jump on a train to get out of the city, but then get stuck in a small town. They hope they can get away from whatever is happening, but there is no escape. When it’s finally revealed at the end it turned out to be really dumb. Even before that happens Shyamalan starts throwing in ridiculous scenes hinting that this movie is not going to end well. Plus there are multiple holes in the plot.<br /><br />The story was supposed to play upon the fears of terrorism. People suddenly start dying and everyone blames terrorists. Then the twist turns out to be something completely different and is supposed to be a warning to the public, but it’s so bad no one probably listened. It also made you question Shyamalan’s talent. Was he really such a good writer or was he just thinking up these surprise endings because that was what he became known for so he had to have one in everything he created?<br />C

Story didn't draw me in

Miyazaki is usually great at creating stories that appeal to both kids and adults. I think he failed at that with Kiki’s Delivery Service. It’s a coming of age story about Kiki, a young witch settling into a city and creating a delivery service using her magic broom. She has to find her place both within the urban space as well as with other young people. I just thought there wasn’t enough to draw me into the plot which seemed aimed solely at kids. Even the dramatic ending wasn’t that appealing to me. That doesn’t mean this won’t be great for a young person to watch.

Showed James Brown's faults and successes

Get On Up was a biographical film about James Brown featuring Chadwick Boseman in the lead. What was good about the movie besides the music was that it included the many problems Brown had in his life instead of just whitewashing everything.<br /><br />The opening scene in fact shows how far Brown had fallen later in life. He does some drugs, jumps into his truck, crashes a meeting that was using his building with a shotgun because a woman used his bathroom, and gets into a high speed chase with the police. Some of Brown’s other problems included were being a dictator to his band which at one point led to almost all of them quitting and being an abusive husband. His ego also cost him the one close friend he had Bobby Byrd who he originally started making music with.<br /><br />Get On Up was also different from other musical biographies like Ray, Rocketman and Bohemian Rhapsody. Those movies followed a formula of picking the biggest songs from the artists and building a story around them. Get On Up had performances, but the music was blasting in the background of almost every scene as well like the first one that used “Get Up Offa That Thing.” It was not told in chronological order either going back and forth in history. It also had imagined parts such as when Brown was a little kid and he envisioned a Jazz band suddenly playing one of his songs to inspire him. There were moments when Brown talked directly into the camera to explain himself such as his business genius when he cut out the middleman and decided to promote his own concerts, which meant more money in his pocket. That added a lot of variety to the story.<br /><br />Third, the film included a lot of the struggles that Brown went through. He grew up dirt poor, his mother and father split, which eventually led him to live with his aunt Susie (Viola Davis) who ran a whorehouse. He spent time in prison. He constantly had to deal with the music business and wider American society which was run by whites. That meant he was constantly competing with the newest white bands like the Rolling Stones who were touted as the hottest thing. He had to deal with white run record labels that tried to shape his career like telling his first band The Famous Flames they weren’t needed.<br /><br />Last, it showed how important Brown was to the black community. He went to Vietnam and played to a unit that was majority black. He played in Boston after Dr. Martin Luther King’s assassination which prevent riots in that city. He wrote “Say It Loud, I’m Black And I’m Proud.” He believed in black owned businesses like the ones he created.<br /><br />If you like James Brown and never knew about his backstory this was a fine introduction. It was entertaining, it was real with his faults, and you could get down with the music.<br />C

Very moving story of 2 former enemies who find out their are intimately connected

My Enemy, My Brother is a very moving documentary. It’s about Najah and Zahed who were on opposite sides of the Iran-Iraq War. 30 years later they randomly met in Vancouver and found out that they had a very close connection. Besides their relationship there are two other stories. One is about Najah travelling back to Iraq to try to find his girlfriend and two children he hadn’t seen since the start of the 1980s. Zahed’s father who lives in Iran also has a terminal illness. The movie starts off about Najah and Zahed and then moves onto their individual stories before bringing them back together at the end. There is a bit in the middle where I thought the story was dragging a bit but when Najah and Zahed were re-united everything started working again.

2 vampres that can only stand each other's company

Only Lovers Left Alive is a Jim Jarmusch film about two vampires, Tilda Swinton and Tom Hiddleston, who re-unite after being apart for years. It’s a love story about the two and how they are fated to be together no matter what.<br /><br />The story is set in Detroit which is symbolic if Hiddleston’s state of mind. The city has tons of history but it is largely abandoned. That’s how Hiddleston feels, very old and forgotten. He plays a recluse and a grump.<br /><br />There’s a great scene where he takes Swinson around the city when she first arrives that highlights his mood. It’s that feeling that leads him to call for the company of Swinton. When they do get together it’s funny because they can only stand themselves and really no one else.<br /><br />The movie lacks a lot of the quirkiness that Jarmusch is known for but does have his plodding pace. It’s better than a lot of his recent movies that were a bit inconsistent.

Updated and refined 80s versoin of Zatoichi

The last of the original Zatoichi releases came out in 1973 featuring Shintaro Katsu in his most famous role. He then went to TV where the Zatoichi series ran from 1974-79. In 1989 he came back to the role with this film Zatoichi: Darkness Is His Ally made by his own Katsu Promotion, which had made the last couple Zatoichi films and some of Katsu’s other creative works.<br /><br />The 1980s were a very bad time for Japanese cinema. The industry lost many of its audience to anime and TV and in turn attempted to replicate those genres to horrible results. Many period pieces looked like they were kids TV shows or manga with outrageous outfits and ridiculous villains. Katsu however stuck to a traditional view rather than going with the trends of the time.<br /><br />What Darkness Is His Ally does is take all of the common Zatoichi tropes and tries to refine them. So for example, the Yakuza (gangster) bosses are more ruthless. The corrupt government official that works with them is driven insane. The ronin (masterless) samurai that Zatoichi meets and will eventually have a confrontation with is more distraught than usual. The sword fights are bigger and better and occur more often. It’s like a super sized Zatoichi film, and it actually works.

A man who just can't catch a break

John Payne plays a man who just can’t catch a break whether it be with his cheating wife or a couple criminals. Payne does a good job with the role. He plays an angry guy well and they stack up a lot of odds against him. There were some funny writing choices however. For instance, after he finds his wife isn’t faithful all he wants to do is be a boxer again. I get that it’s a release for his anger, but if he’d said he wanted to kill his wife that might’ve been better.

How much is Nolte willing to compromise himself as a college coach?

This is another one of those movies that I always meant to see but just never did until now.<br /><br />I have to say I was impressed by the start. Nick Nolte is a college basketball coach who walks into the locker room before the game starts. He cusses out his kids, says they are the worst team he’s ever seen, and then storms out. Then he comes back in to yell at them some more. Throws some stuff and leaves again. Then he returns for a third time and says he wants them to win! It’s the greatest inspirational speech I’ve seen. Hilarious.<br /><br />Nolte had long ago perfected the grumpy white guy routine so he was perfect for this role. He gets to go through the trials and tribulations of recruiting players from dealing with their parents to the alumni both of which want to talk about money. That’s the focus of the plot how much Nolte is willing to compromise himself.<br /><br />The backstory to the movie was just as good as it featured famous college coaches, some NBA legends and players plus Anfernee Hardaway who was going to be drafted that year into the League. The movie crew let them play real games and it was during the scrimmages that Hardaway convinced Shaquille O’Neal who is also in the movie to have the Orlando Magic draft him instead of Chris Webber.<br /><br />The talent they put out on the floor also made the basketball exciting to watch which of course is important in a sprots movie.

Egyptian gods go at it in this special effects heavy film

In The Gods Of Egypt the deities walk the land with the mortals. When Osiris (Bryan Brown) is about to name his son Horus (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) his successor Set (Gerard Butler), Osiris’ brother shows up, kills him, and tears out the eyes of Horus. The movie makes for an interesting comparison between Horus and Set. Set is power hungry and wants to destroy all the other gods while Horus is not only a defeated man but selfish sometimes as well. The story evolves as Horus starts acting more like a god.<br /><br />Most of the story is very heavy on the special effects with gods twice as tall as humans, monsters, Set’s giant armies, monsters, etc. That makes it a fun watch but not as good as some of the similar movies.<br />C

A hero has to free Lego World from an oppressive Will Ferrell!

The Lego Movie is an animated comedy where a Lego world is highly regimented and people are brainwashed and controlled by President Business (Will Ferrell). There are songs like “Everything Is Awesome!” that everyone sings along to for hours, non-stop. No one can do anything without following the instructions. It’s up to Emmet (Chris Pratt) to liberate the people.<br /><br />The movie has plenty of jokes like an angry cop that beats up furniture, a security data base that can’t find anyone because they are all Lego figures that have the same face, and a completely clueless Batman. There’s a great twist at the end as well that involves Will Ferrell being the oppressor. It’s surprisingly well done and will definitely generate some laughs.

The lives of black men killed by the police have a story behind them

Having lived and worked in the Bay Area my entire life the story of what happened at Fruitvale BART station in Oakland in 2009 was really heart wrenching. On New Year’s Eve Oscar Grant was killed by a BART policeman who claimed he was grabbing his taser but pulled out his pistol and shot Grant while he was subdued by other officers on the ground. The actual footage of his murder opens the movie. It led to a wave of protests in the Bay Area against police violence four years before Black Lives Matter started.<br /><br />This was also the first film by Ryan Coogler who came from the Bay and would go on to fame with Creed and the Black Panther.<br /><br />What Fruitvale Station is about is the day in the life of Grant played by Michael B. Jordan in the last few hours before he passed. He has a girlfriend named Sophina (Melonie Diaz) and a child Tatiana (Ariana Neal). He tries to get his job back at a grocery store, he passes on selling drugs to a friend, he celebrates his mom’s birthday, and eventually, decides to take BART to San Francisco to watch the New Year’s fireworks. There’s also a flashback to when he was locked up.<br /><br />The point of all this is to show Oscar as a human being not just a news story about another black man getting gunned down by the police. When he talks to his ex-boss for example, he shows how desperate he is to get a job again to support his family. When he was in jail he was caught up in that life and ignored his family. That compares to when he passes on being a dope dealer showing that he was trying to turn a new leaf, but it’s hard because everyone thinks of what he used to do.<br /><br />It’s a great character study, and one that will pull at your heart strings.<br />C

If there was one role Keanu Reeves was born for it's playing a surfer

Keanu Reeves is a rookie FBI agent. His partner Gary Busey thinks a group of bank robbers are surfers. Reeves takes on the daunting task of becoming a surfer to try to find and infiltrate the crew. Much of the movie is lighthearted as Reeves spends time at the beach and gets a girlfriend. Then there are moments of action like when he gets into a fight with some Surf Nazis. There’s a gaping hole in the story when he hangs out with the thieves even though his cover was blown. Reeves makes another dumb move during the climax. That’s made up by the unexpected twist in the story made by the head of the gang played by Patrick Swayze. If there’s one role Reeves was probably born for it’s being a surfer. Busey is perfect as the mad FBI agent and Swayze pulls off the spiritual gang leader. There’s a reason why people like Point Blank so much because it’s a bit goofy and action packed at the same time.

Dark and sinister crime drama

I liked the tone and cinematography to this movie. Right from the start everything was filmed with very dark lighting to go along with the subject matter, a killer who delivers bones from his living victims. That concept of the killer was also crazy and something I hadn’t seen before. Taking out bones while keeping the victim alive? It provided for a very taught and exciting crime drama.

The last 2 stories save an otherwise inconsistent movie

The Twilight Zone was one of the most iconic TV shows of its time. It was inevitable that it would be made into a film. It was a collection of 5 different stories each with its own director including Steven Spielberg and John Landis. Some of them worked and others that didn’t. One about a retirement home for instance would have been more appropriate in a Disney production not the Twilight Zone. The best were saved for last with one story about a kid who got whatever he wanted and another based upon a TV episode where John Lithgow was terrified of flying. Lithgow has this insane look upon him which completely makes the scene. It’s one of the most memorable things he ever did. That showed it really wasn’t the directors that made the stories good or bad but rather the writing with the two concluding skits scripted by Richard Matheson.

Ocean and company have to teach a casino mogul a lesson

After Ocean’s Twelve totally flopped Steven Soderbergh and company returned to their roots with Ocean’s Thirteen. The story revolves around Danny Ocean (George Clooney) and company teaching casino mogul Willy Bank (Al Pacino) a lesson in humility and honor. A man’s word is supposed to be bond but Bank only cared about manipulating people for his own ends. When that puts Reuben (Elliott Gould) in the hospital Ocean and his friends jump into action with another witty and complicated plot.<br /><br />Part of the fun of the first movie was to see all the things the team had to do to carry out the job. They did that and more in Thirteen. Virgil (Casey Affleck) for instance got a job at a company in Mexico that made the dice at Bank’s casino. He even organized the workers and led a strike. Another time they set up a casino reviewer by infecting his room and food with all kinds of nasties.<br /><br />Second the challenges in this job are the greatest the team has ever faced. For one, Bank installed an artificial intelligence security system. Two, Ocean and Rusty (Brad Pitt) couldn’t even think of all the schemes themselves and had to call in their friend Roman (Eddie Izzard) for help. Three, they didn’t have an exit strategy to end the strike against Bank’s casino. Coming up with the challenges and overcoming them were all part of the great writing employed in the film.<br /><br />To top it all off they had another great soundtrack to provide the perfect music for each scene.<br /><br />Ocean’s Eleven surprised you with the scheme. Thirteen had that and a lot more fun as well as you were rooting for Ocean and company to stick it to Bank.<br />C

1 of the best early adaptations of a Stephen King story

David Keith and his daughter Drew Barrymore are on the run from the government who want them because of their telepathic abilities. Keith can read and control other people’s minds while Barrymore can set things on fire.<br /><br />The film has a strong cast including George C. Scott and Martin Sheen part of the government agents after the father and daughter. Scott looks great with a bad eye, a pony tail and an evil demeanor.<br /><br />The story is just as good with agents after Keith and Barrymore. Her lighting things up, etc. It’s definitely one of the better early adaptations of a Stephen King story.
