Funny re-make of 1974 original with just as many jokes as football
This is a re-make of the 1974 Burt Reynolds movie. Adam Sandler plays an ex-football star who is thrown in prison and then is put in charge of creating a football team out of his fellow inmates to play the guards in a game. The movie mixes comedy with the misfit cast of characters that he meets in prison and sports with the football he ends up playing while being incarcerated. Reynolds even shows up in the film to coach Sandler’s team to connect the old with the new.<br /><br />Some of the characters they created for the inmates are just caricatures. Yeah I know it’s a comedy but c’mon they could have done a much better job.<br /><br />Now for the good. There are some really funny moments like when Sandler’s team is practicing and one guys just kicks another in the face to stop him from tackling Sandler. Another time during the inmate-guard game one of the refs keeps on making calls against the prisoners. Sandler responds by throwing the ball right into the guy’s nuts. The game proves to be pretty good as well.<br />C

By far the best of all the Jackass movies
Jackass came about when Jeff Tremaine and Spike Jonze saw these skate videos Bam Margera used to put together that were half scatting and half comedy with Bam and his friends doing stupid stuff like jumping into hedges. That led to the Jackass TV show and then several movies. Of the latter Jackass 3 is BY FAR the best one. That’s because the stunts are consistently outrageous and funny which is not true of the other ones.<br /><br />As usual there are a mix of stunts they pull off. Some are on themselves and others are upon unsuspecting people out on the streets. For example, they hit a tell ball into the groin of Steve O. Two of them get down to their swim trunks and play tether ball while a hive of bees is released to watch them play until they can’t take the stings anymore. Another time they hang a series of tasers and cattleprods inside a hallway and had the cast run threw them and get electrocuted. Preston let a pro-football player punt a ball right into his face. Examples of the other pranks are like when Jason Acuna goes into a bar with a girl and they stage a midget fight followed by midget cops and midget paramedics walk in to take away those “injured” in the brawl. In a skit that would later turn into an entire film Johnny Knoxville put on a bunch of make-up to look like an old man and goes into a motorcycle store, gets on top of a scooter and rides it right through the front window.<br /><br />The joy comes from watching these idiots either hurt themselves or freak out someone who doesn’t know they’re being filmed. As usual, not everything works. Some skits are just so disgusting you might not be able to watch them. Still #3 did a much better job than any of the others in being funny.

A classic noir and one of Bogart's most memorable performances as Sam Spade
The Maltese Falcon is one of the all-time great Film Noirs. It was John Huston’s first production and featured Humphrey Bogart as the iconic private investigator Sam Spade. The story was based off of a book by Dashiell Hammett who helped create the hard boiled style of writing in America.<br /><br />The story is set in San Francisco. Mrs. Wonderly (Mary Astor) comes to Spade asking for his help finding her missing sister who disappeared from New York with a man named Floyd Thursby. The problem is people get killed and a bunch of guns get pulled on Spade while he’s investigating the case, and he discovers that Wonderly is involved with two unseemly men Joel Cairo (Peter Lorre) an Kasper Gutman (Sydney Greenstreet) who are hunting the famous Maltese Falcon.<br /><br />This starts one of the main tropes of Noir the endangered male protagonist who is facing all kinds of threats from women, the police, and criminals. Wonderly plays the femme fatale. She shows her money and tries to apply her feminine wiles to manipulate Spade to find the Falcon. He knows the game though. He tries to escape his plight by being smarter than everyone else.<br /><br />Bogart does a great job playing Spade and laying down a series of sharp lines, which was another mainstay of Noir films. For example, at the end Spade says “If they hang you I’ll always remember you.” Lorre and Greenstreet add a real sense of sleaze to their performances which befit their characters and desire to acquire the Falcon by all means.<br /><br />All together the movie is full of twists and turns, backstabbing, and mystery as every good noir is. Bogart really makes the movie, and it would become one of his best known roles.<br />C

Coming of age story for a bunch of soldiers in basic training
Matthew Broderick and his unit are going through basic training under drill sergeant Christopher Walken in Mississippi preparing for World War II. It’s a coming of age story by Neil Simon that was originally a play. They deal with everything from bullies to sexuality. On top of that Walken is your stereotypical harsh disciplinarian. Corey Parker stands out as both victim and saint. He’s constantly picked on but gives Broderick the best advice of his life telling him he has to pick a side in whatever fight he comes across otherwise he’ll never amount to anything.

Bad acting sinks this movie
Rio Lobo is a classic Howard Hawks-John Wayne western. It focuses upon Wayne trying to hunt down a traitor form his unit during the Civil War. I didn’t think it was bad but it didn’t keep my interest. The start when Wayne was in the war was the best part. It has action and intrigue. When he goes to Rio Lobo the story drops off. Part of that is due to the poor acting of Jennifer O’Neill. Her scenes could have come out of a TV show rather than a full length feature.

Good but the story is derivative of the TV show rather than something new
This was the movie based upon the Afro Samurai series. It returns to the headband which denoted who was the greatest swordsman in the land and who was the top contender. Samuel L. Jackson was still his sidekick and Lucy Liu was his adversary. The story was a mix of old samurai films and the modern day and largely consisted of fight scenes. Thus, there is gushing blood when someone is cut by a blade but people are riding motorcycles and there’s a dance club. On the other hand, the anime wasn’t as good as the series and the story was rather derivative rather than original. Good, but not as good as the TV show.

Struggles and divisions caused by revolution
Wind That Shakes The Barley is about Ireland in the 1920s from the war of independence to the civil war that followed. It features Cillian Murphy who joins the Irish Republican Army. The movie provides a simple cause and effect with constant humiliations, abuses and killings by the English army and authorities against the Irish which led to armed resistance. The story goes on to show the dilemmas faced by revolutionary groups such as turning on their own people who are accused of being traitors, conflicts over courts set up by the IRA, the struggle to raise money, etc. Finally the revolutionary movement split leading to civil war. It’s a powerful story of what happens to many countries that go through such struggles.

Kevin Costner goes West and discovers a new life with a Lakota tribe
Kevin Costner plays a U.S. army officer who became almost suicidal during the Civil War. Afterwards he decides to go West to find himself. There he comes across the Sioux Indians and the story becomes one of understanding between him and a tribe. In the process Costner discovers a new life.<br /><br />The first thing that stands out is that almost half the movie is in Lakota spoken by the tribe. There are other movies featuring Native Americans that include their languages but I can’t think of one that gives them as much prominence as Dances With Wolves.<br /><br />Second the film embraces the tribe. It’s not just that Costner meets some of the members. They are presented as families. It shows their ceremonies, their migratory lifestyle, etc. and how the Americans were destroying their way of life. For example the tribe is excited to hear of a buffalo herd only to find some animals slaughtered by Americans for their fur.<br /><br />Third there is some beautiful imagery of the West. The open plains, huge herds of buffalo and horses and more. The scene of a buffalo hunt is amazing.<br /><br />I saw this movie when it came out in the theaters and loved it then. Watching it now years later it is still an all time classic.

The dangers of technology but the story got clunky at the end
Transcendence is about the dangers of technology. Johnny Depp is working on an artificial intelligence when he’s attacked by anti-tech terrorists and he has his consciousness uploaded into his creation. The AI/Depp feels like it can solve problems and help people which means expanding its reach but does that also mean control? I thought that part was very interesting but then they add some action bits at the end which I thought were clunky.

How a revolution was put to film
Baadasssss! is a movie by Melvin Van Peebles where he plays his father Mario Van Peebles and how he made his groundbreaking film Sweet Sweetbacks Baadasssss Song about a black revolutionary that created the blaxploitation genre. The move presents Van Peebles as a guerrilla film maker who had to put everything together on his own. It shows what a domineering jerk he was as well. It presents Sweet Sweetbacks as an opposition film to Hollywood norms by showing clips from real movies about how minorities were traditionally shown as servants and the butt of jokes. Finally, it places it within the times with talk about making a movie being the voice of the oppressor and standing up to the man all things that became the trademarks of all the black films that came after Van Peebles’. Van Peebles had a revolution in his mind that he wanted on the big screen and if you want to get a sense of how that happened then watch Baadassss!

Another great horror film by James Wan
James Wan has huge standing in the horror movie business. He co-created the Saw franchise and directed the Conjuring films. In between those he had another successful series with Insidious. The story is based upon Patrick Wilson and Rose Byrne playing a married couple whose son portrayed by Ty Simpkins falls into a coma which opens him up to possession by evil spirits.<br /><br />What the movie does well is build up the story. The family moves into a new home and there’s just a little hint at first that’s something wrong. Then when the son is brought home still in his coma Byrne starts hearing and seeing things. Initially it’s a slow burn to build up the tension and fear factor and it works. It goes from that to some scary gotcha moments. It gets even better with some really haunting imagery when they venture into the spirit world. Overall it shows that Wan really knows his stuff with these types of films.

Stone god deals with corruption and injustice in ancient Japan
The three Daimajin movies may seem like a Japanese kaiju film set in ancient samurai days with the big stone giant coming to life and smashing everything but they’re really not. They’re actually about the corruption and injustice of the samurai era with the Majin only really appearing at the end of each film.<br /><br />In Daimajin Lord Hanabasa is deposed by his Chamberlain Samanosuke and Maijin shows up to take revenge upon the usurper. In Return of Daimajin men from a town are being exploited by a samurai lord to build a fort and their kids try to rescue them. It’s like an adventure story as they cross a mountain but it’s the least interesting out of the three films. The only part worthwhile is when Majin smashes everything at the end. Wrath of Daimajin is really a samurai movie. It also had the biggest budget with samurai battles as one lord takes over two of the neighboring fiefs.<br /><br />The best part of all the films is when Maijn shows up. He has a stone face and then that transforms into a truly angry samurai one based upon Japanese art. It’s really something to see. Then he gets to destroy all the evil samurai for their transgressions.

Unconvincingly argues Op Market Garden wasn't a disaster
Arnhem 1944 is a documentary about the joint British-American Operation Market Garden. That involved American and British paratroopers landing behind German enemy lines in Holland while an armored column tried to connect with all of them to seize a series of bridges in an attempt to sweep into northern Germany. The movie is a bit of a disappointment especially at the end where it tries to say that the operation wasn’t as bad as it has been portrayed before.<br /><br />The movie starts with Allied strategy in Western Europe and the debate over whether to continue with a broad front into Germany or go with General Bernard Montgomery’s suggestion to make a thrust into the north to go around most of Germany’s defenses. Things then shift to the actual operation with the American 82nd and 1012st Aiborne Division and the British 1st Airborne Division dropping into Holland with the British 30th Corpse moved up on a narrow front to relieve each of those units. This is conveyed through interviewing several authors and historians, some useful maps and lots of documentary footage. This provided a general retelling of the campaign.<br /><br />Where the film fell short was in the conclusion. Here the experts interviewed talk about how Operation Market Garden was actually a success. One said that it stretched Germany forces. Another said it contributed to the war of attrition. Another said it wasn’t an airborne disaster. This was in response to the conventional wisdom that Operation Market Garden was badly planned and led to a disaster with the 1st British Airborne Division being destroyed in Arnhem. The arguments are unconvincing in the end. The Allies did not capture the last bridge at Arnhem. They did not sweep into northern Germany. They went back to the broad front strategy. The British airborne suffered tremendous losses.<br />C

Great 60s sci-fi
An important scientist on miniaturization has suffered brain damage in an attack by communists. The military needs to save him before he dies so they use a secret miniaturization process to shrink down a ship and a crew of doctors to be inserted inside the scientist’s body to save him. They only have one hour to do the procedure and of course things go wrong. That’s the plot of Fantastic Voyage.<br /><br />The movie is a great mid-60s sci fi tale. The effects are good and believable showing that they had a good budget. The main character Grant played by Stephen Boyd initially didn’t want to be shrunk down, and when they are Dr. Michaels played by Donald Pleasence has a panic attack adding some realism to the story. There’s plenty of suspense. In case you missed it the film also features a young Raquel Welch. This all makes Fantastic Voyage a very enjoyable movie.

Pretty avg thriller that followed all the conventional tropes
Joy Ride is a thriller where Paul Walker and Steve Zahn are stalked by a psychotic truck driver. The theme seems to be don’t mess with truck drivers because they might kill you.

A werewolf classic
American Werewolf In London by director John Landis was a great addition to the werewolf genre.<br /><br />Things get right down to business. Two Americans David Kessler (David Naughton) and Jack Goodman (Griffin Dunne) are hiking across an English moor. They stop in a pub and notice a pentagram on the wall. All the customers are being loud and talking when Jack asks why there was a pentagram. Everyone immediately becomes quiet and David and Jack are asked to leave. Afterward the woman running the pub regrets having the two boys leave knowing what will befall them. That’s being attacked by a werewolf that kills Jack and infects David.<br /><br />Landis was able to create a great horror story. The first time David becomes a werewolf was a piece de resistance in special effects, and something people will always remember seeing. His attacks upon the people of London are well done with just the right amount of gore. Jack comes back from the dead stuck in limbo until David dies. Each time he appears his body is more deteriorated. He even brings along some of his undead friends later on.<br /><br />Not only that, but there’s comedy as well. David for example, ends up naked in a zoo after his first change and has to steal some balloons and clothes to escape.<br /><br />Really, there’s not a bad moment to the film.<br />C

Exaggerated characters attempt a heist with some amazing gospel music
Ladykillers is one of the Cohen Brothers most overlooked movies. It shouldn’t be because it was really funny. It was a remake of a 1955 British film. It’s a comedy-heist flick with Tom Hanks as Goldthwaite Higginson Dorr leading a group of criminals who use an old African American woman’s basement named Mrs Marva Munson (Irma Hall) to rob a casino riverboat. It’s a perfect example of the quirky style of the Cohens as all the characters are highly exaggerated. It also has a great soundtrack based around Mrs. Munson’s gospel choir.<br /><br />You can tell the story is going to be character driven when Mrs. Munson opens things up by going to the sheriff’s office to complain about a local kid who bought a radio and was blasting rap music. She objected to not only the volume but the lyrics. He must have been listening to A Tribe Called Quest because she kept on saying “I left my wallet in El Segundo.” Then Goldthwaite appears. He dresses like he’s from the 1800s and talks like an old southern gentleman from that period as well. These personalities and their interactions are the main source of laughs as Mr. Dorr’s expedition to the casino boat goes awfully wrong.<br /><br />The added bonus is the choir at Mrs. Munson’s church. If you are a lover of music there is no way you can’t hear those gospel tunes and not get excited. The choir leader is quite a character as well. Plus he looks like a combination of Rick James and James Brown.<br />C

Too many humans not enough monsters!
I was pleasantly surprised by the 2014 Godzilla film. Director Gareth Edwards was able to revive this Japanese classic. Unfortunately, the new Godzilla King of the Monsters had a new director, Michael Dougherty who dropped the ball big time.<br /><br />The story starts with a scientist Emma Russell creating a machine that can communicate with all of the 17 monsters, Titans as they call them in the movie, that have been discovered across the Earth such as Godzilla. She joins with some eco-terrorists that believe that by releasing the monsters they can return the Earth to its balance, which humans are destroying via pollution, war, etc. The problems is, the monsters don’t want to cooperate especially Monster Zero, aka Ghidorah which challenges the hierarchy of the Titans with Godzilla at the top.<br /><br />The problem with the movie was that the human-monster ratio was off from the start. In the 2014 Godzilla movie for instance, Bryan Cranston’s character helped push the story along. He tried to warn the scientists in Japan that the pulses they were hearing meant that the giant bug monster was coming back to life. In King of the Monsters the whole movie is based around the humans. Russell starts releasing the Titans. The scientific-military group Monarch which was set up to monitor the Titans tries to stop her. There’s also her daughter Madison Russell that runs off with her and the husband Mark Russell that wants to get her back. Simply put there should have been way less on the humans, and way more on the monsters. Not only that but the human story was not interesting.<br /><br />Not only that they tried to pay homage to the original Japanese Godzilla movies which was pretty cool. Calling Ghidorah Monster Zero for example is based upon the 1965 movie of the same name. They have a variation of the original Godzilla theme song. Then they throw things for a twist and put Godzilla basically inside Atlantis as his homeworld. Completely unnecessary.<br /><br />Overall, this was very disappointing and not a film that can be recommended. I literally got bored in the middle with all the people.

Didn't work in the end
In the opening to this new series a young Elf named Galadriel is told that the reason why boats sail is because they are always looking up towards the night while stones only look down at the darkness which pulls it down. Galadirel replies sometimes it’s hard to tell which way is up and which way is down. That is the situation she finds herself in as an adult obsessed with finding and destroying the evil Sauron. She has to decide whether he quest is making her look down into the past or up into the future.<br /><br />The series has has the huge landscapes. There is an ensemble cast even though they are on different paths at first. It really creates a sense of good versus evil and adventure. That was deceiving however. After the first episode I was excited to see the rest of the series but I was ultimately disappointed. The story line was so uneven. There were some episodes that seemed completely unnecessary. Other times scenes are dragged out endlessly. This had so much potential and obviously so much money behind it but it didn't work in the end.

Collage of images to try to capture Marshawn Lynch
I’m a teacher at Oakland Tech High School and I remember going to see Marshawn Lynch play when he was at the school. He just destroyed other teams. It wasn’t even fair. This is not a traditional documentary about him. That’s a good thing because talking heads can’t get really old really fast. This is more like a collage using short video clips to give context to Lynch’s story. For instance it starts with flashing between different famous people from Oakland from athletes like Bill Russell to writers like Maxine Hong Kingston to political figures like Bobby Seale. From there it goes all over the place including some esoteric issues like Lynch having to deal with snow when he played for the Buffalo Bills to him going to Applebee’s to more serious ones like how he ran into problems with the Bills and how black people are perceived by American society. The best parts might be Lynch’s infamous dealings with the media. They are hilarious. It’s definitely not what you would expect but when you see what they’re trying to do it’s a very enjoyable doc.

Enjoyable but predictable story of 2 people fleeing their pasts
Blue State is a low key romantic comedy about Breckin Meyer and Anna Paquin fleeing America for Canada to escape their pasts. I felt sympathy for Paquin because she was stuck with Meyer who was an over the top liberal down to only buying gas at certain stations that didn’t use Middle East oil because of the war in Iraq. On the other hand the story was very predictable. As soon as Meyer and Paquin met you knew what was going to happen. Despite that it was enjoyable and they met some interesting people in Canada.

A kid's nightmares become real
Phantasm was a cult 1970s film coming out right at the end of the decade. It focuses upon a young kid named Mike who becomes obsessed with the idea that something is out to get him and that it has something to do with the local cemetery and its creepy caretaker. The movie is like a nightmare as Mike sees unnatural and mysterious things.<br /><br />The dreamlike nature of the film is played out in several ways. In the opening scene a beautiful woman is having sex with a man and then she stabs him. When the camera focuses back on the woman’s face it’s that of the caretaker. Another time Mike is having an actual nightmare where his bed is in the middle of the cemetery, the caretaker is looking over his headboard and then little beasts jump out of the graves and grab Mike.<br /><br />The movie also has a very iconic feature which was the death ball. A small flying ball with blades and drill flies around the mortarium impalling itself in people’s foreheads and drilling into their skulls.<br /><br />All together that makes Phantasm a stand out horror film that is still great today.<br />C

So bored and disappointed
I grew up watching the Thunderbirds after school, but I’d never seen this feature film based upon the TV series. It was a huge disappointment. The story is about a foe attempting to manipulate a new luxury airliner the Thunderbirds built for an around the world trip. The plot is so slow to develop that the movie immediately becomes boring. It’s not until the very end that anything really happens and then you’re not excited but relieved because that means the film is about to conclude.

Witty and fun
Adam Samberg used to do musical skits on Saturday Night Live with his friends Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone known collectively as Lonely Island so it’s no surprise that they would make a mocumentary about Samberg being a pop star. The movie is about the costs of fame mixed in with a lot of ridiculous lyrics like if a fish could play guitar and sing that would blow their minds. It’s witty and it’s fun. If you liked Samberg’s SNL skits you’ll like Popstar.

What it means to find the truth
At the start of Dark Crimes Marton Csokas says that there is no truth. Truth is what you make of it. Remember that because it’s the theme of the film.<br /><br />The story is about Jim Carrey as a washed up Polish cop investigating an old case about a murder that happened at an underground sex club. Csokas who plays an iconoclastic writer is the main suspect.<br /><br />The movie deals with some really dark subject matter like showing how women were treated at the club. Carrey also has an obsessive personality and thinks he’s serving justice but he’s willing to do unsavory things to get his man. Thrown in with that is some power politics that cloud the case.<br /><br />This is definitely not the type of movie that you expect Carrey to star in but he does a fantastic job. It’s dark and it’s moody and not what you expect.

2 movie set Girl Boss Revenge is great Delinquent Girl Boss is a dud
Girl gangs was a whole genre of Japanese exploitation in the 1970s. This collection contains two discs. One is Girl Boss Revenge and the other is Delinquent Girl Boss both released by Toei.<br /><br />Girl Boss Revenge starred two of the mainstays of these types of films Miki Sugimoto and Reiko Ike. The movie is about Sugimoto and some other female criminals escaping from the police and forming a gang that takes on all comers. That includes the local Yakuza (gangs). There are girl fights, torture, sex, singing, and more. The movie is heads above many of its contemporaries because it champions female empowerment as the female gang become the heroes against the evil male mafioso. Added bonus, the soundtrack is a great mix of Soul-Jazz, Funk and some Japanese Pop.<br /><br />Delinquent Girl Boss featured Reiko Oshida isn’t as good. Oshida gets out of a reform school and struggles to find work afterward. She bounces from place to place dealing with perverted old men, girl gangs, the Yakuza, etc. The story is very rambling with no real focus going from scene to scene.<br /><br />Girl Boss Revenge is available as its own release so it would be better to just get that film rather than this collection.<br />C

Battle against colonization and the destruction of the environment
The much awaited sequel to Avatar did not disappoint. It returned with the same theme again of colonization. This time the Earthlings called Sky People were out to take over Pandora to settle there which is resisted by the native peoples the Na’vi. The parallels with U.S. history are clear as well with the Sky People being the American settlers and the Na’vi being the Native Americans who carry out an insurgency against the occupiers. There’s also a lot thrown in from Vietnam and even whaling as well. The twists this time are that Pandora is expanded to the seas and there’s a personal element as Quaritch/Stephen Lang returns to try to hunt down and kill Jake Sully/Sam Worthington. That leads to all the action and there’s a lot of it. Avatar has more than that going for it however. The world that James Cameron created is amazing as well with all the lush environments, new sea people who are based upon Pacific Islanders, and various animals that inhabit it. Cameron spends as much time exploring his new environment as the fighting. Sully’s family also humanizes the story even though they’re not humans! He’s not only married this time but has a gang of kids as well who get caught up in the middle of the conflict with Quaritch.

A beautiful litle story about toy soldiers trying to destroy monster toys
Small Soldiers was a grown up and twisted version of Toy Story. Things begin when a toy company is taken over by a defense contractor and they start producing computerized action figures that end up coming alive. There is one group of peaceful toys called Gorgonites and one group of soldiers called the Commando Elite. The commandos are programed to destroy the Gorgonites and get out of a toy store and lay siege to a family’s home where the Gorgonites have gone.<br /><br />It’s a mature story because of the amount of violence the Commandos lay down to get the Gorgonites. They kidnap a kid and hold her hostage. They destroy an entire house, etc. It’s like a war movie but with animated dolls mixed in with real people. It’s also a lot of fun to watch.<br />C

The impending threat of nuclear war
Fail Safe came out the same year as Dr. Strangelove and dealt with the same issue but from a completely different perspective. Dr. Strangelove was a satire of the Cold War while Fail Safe was serious. Both dealt with an error that sent U.S. bombers towards the USSR threatening nuclear war. The movie has many engaging elements ranging from politics to humanity. Walter Matthau for example is a professor who argues that the U.S. should use this opportunity to destroy the Soviets and Communism in one swift move. Others like the president played by Henry Fonda are more worried about the consequences and want to negotiate. Added to that is the impending sense of doom as the story progresses. It really is an excellent film about what the world was facing during the Cold War.

Some of the greatest American music was recorded in a small town in Alabama
Muscle Shoals is a small, mostly non-descript town in Alabama that was the home of one of the greatest recording studios of the 1960s-70s called Fame, and then the breakaway Muscle Shoals Studio. It gave birth to the music of a generation from Aretha Franklin to the Staples Singers to Wilson Picket to more. The irony was that the producer Rick Hall and the original studio band were all white and yet made some of the greatest Soul music of the time.<br /><br />The movie lays out the history of Fame and Muscle Shoals Studios in chronological order. It not only covers how the studios were put together, how the house band came about, the breakthrough of how Rick Hall hooked up with Atlantic Records but the history of the period. Alabama’s Governor George Wallace was one of the staunchest racists and segregationists in the country at the time. Having white and black people coming together to make black music therefore was revolutionary for the times.<br /><br />The studio went on to give birth to Southern Rock as well when Duane Allman arrived and joined the studio band and then formed the Allman Brothers and then Lynard Skynard with Muscle Shoals.<br /><br />It’s some great music which is the reason to watch this film.

Couldn't make the main plot interesting so added side stories
This movie was disappointing. It had a great cast of very young stars Sean Penn, Elizabeth McGovern and Nicolas Cage. It’s an old fashioned coming of age romance as Penn courts McGovern. The problem is nothing comes of that. It’s completely predictable. Instead of making their relationship more interesting they add side stories to keep the plot going.

John Woo's 2nd Hollywood film proved good but not great
Broken Arrow was John Woo’s second foray into Hollywood filmmaking. With each release he got a little bit better, which means this movie is good, but not great. It features John Travolta as Major Vic Deakins and Christian Slater as Captain Riley Hale. The former steals two nuclear bombs and the latter tries to get them back. The story focuses upon not only the crime but the rivalry between the two main characters. Deakins feels he is smarter, stronger, and the better person, and Hale is always having to stand up for himself. In fact, the interaction between the two is the best part of the film.<br />C

It was so bad it was good
Mixing Blaxploitation with Kung Fu? Yes please! The movie was filmed in the Philippines and Hong Kong and featured an American boxier who gets caught up in the scheme of a crazy white man who wants an ancient Chinese secret. Yes the plot is that bad. Still it makes fun of itself at times like this deaf Chinese martial artist who attaches himself to the boxer. Ultimately I thought it was so bad it was good.

Not particularly scary but it has its moments
Darkness Falls is a ghost story. In the 19th century a woman cursed a town and ever since then she’s come to snatch their kids when their teeth come out in an evil version of the tooth fairy. Kyle (Chaney Kley) was the only kid to ever escape her clutches and now he returns to town to help out her friend’s child who is being haunted by the woman.<br /><br />The movie is pretty straight forward horror plot. It relies on gotcha moments mixed in with chase scenes. The gimmick of the story is that the woman can’t come into the light so you have a bunch of sequences where the people are running around and getting snatched when they fall into the darkness. The film isn’t really scary but you could do a lot worse looking for a ghost story to watch.

Writing was up and down
Across The Tracks is a bit up and down. It features a young Brad Pitt and Ricky Schroder as brothers taking opposite paths with Pitt being the good one and Schroder being the bad one. There are bits in the script and acting that are really stilted, bad and stereotypical. It felt like the writers struggled to write convincing dialogue for teens and fell back on tropes. On the other hand there’s a good bonding between the two and a healthy competition as well. If the writing had been better this could have been a lot stronger movie.

Death of innocence as a little boy discovers the truth of Nazi Germany
Boy In The Striped Pajamas is about the death of innocence. Asa Butterfield is like any little boy, he just wants to play with other kids. That’s impossible however because he lives in an isolated compound while his dad David Thewlis, an SS officer, runs a concentration camp. That all changes when Butterfield escapes the confines of his home and finds his way to the camp and meets a Jewish boy Jack Scanlon. By doing so he slowly discovers the truth of Nazi Germany. The movie plays upon Butterfield’s childish view. He doesn’t understand what he sees at first, but it slowly dawns on him. It is a completely original take on the Holocaust and not something you’ll likely see again. You’ll gasp at the end.

A chameleon searching for his place in the world
The Talented Mr Ripley is about a man, Matt Damon, trying to find himself in the world. It starts off like an adventure and then turns into a thriller.<br /><br />The first thing that stood out was that it was about the rich and poor. Working class Matt Damon is sent to Italy to find a rich kid Jude Law and bring him back to his father in New York. When Damon arrives he’s caught up in the leisure life of Law. He does anything he wants and Damon becomes enthralled with being like him. From there however things go in unexpected directions and becomes like an Alfred Hitchcock thriller.<br /><br />Damon really stands out for his performance. He is a complete chameleon. There’s a great line he says about how he thought it would be better to be a fake somebody than a real nobody. The ending is also of Damon sitting in a room while his reflection is shown across different mirrors symbolic of the split personas that he’s created. It’s amazing what his character is able to do and get away with.

One of Tarantino's best films A black fantasy for the ages
Django Unchained was Quentin Tarantino’s second fantasy film, the first being Inglourious Basterds. It’s a fantasy for what many African Americans wished they could do, namely take revenge upon white slave owners.<br /><br />The movie is about Django (Jamie Foxx) being freed, realizing his power, and then going to free his enslaved wife. He’s helped by his mentor Dr. King Shultz (Christoph Waltz).<br /><br />The movie starts with slavery since that’s at the heart of the story as Dr. Shultz frees Django by killing his two slave owners. Later Waltz is shocked by the scars he sees on Django’s back from being whipped.<br /><br />There’s also plenty of fantasy in the story right from the start. Django for example joins Shultz in his business as a bounty hunter. Django as a black man gets paid to kill whites. That’s foreshadowing of what he gets to do at the end.<br /><br />All the characters really stand out. Besides Foxx and Waltz there’s also Leonardo DiCaprio as Calvin Candie and Samuel L. Jackson as his slave Stephen. Stephen plays the house slave to a tee and DiCaprio plays shines as well.<br /><br />What makes Django so great is that Tarantino found the perfect balance between the rich dialogue, action, comedy, and the development of Foxx’s character. Sometimes he can’t do that and gets carried away with the talking to the point that it drowns out everything else. The comedic points are also great such as when Foxx dresses up in a blue suit to go to a plantation or when Waltz confronts a local marhsall after he’s killed a sheriff who was actually a wanted man. Finally, Tarantino added a great soundtrack something he first became known for with Reservoir Dogs. When there is a big scene he throws in the perfect song. Finally, the movie shows the motivation for Foxx’s character via the whippings, the medieval chains and other devices used to enslave and control black people, etc.<br /><br />Overall, one of Tarantino’s best films.<br />C

A famous mission during the Gulf War where everything went wrong
This was a made for TV movie based upon a book about the true story of a small British SAS unit sent into western Iraq during the Gulf War to hunt for SCUD missiles. It became a famous mission because everything went wrong.<br /><br />The film gets right down to business as the unit goes into Iraq after a very short introduction. There is a lot of military jargon which isn’t explained but you don’t need that to understand what’s going on. The most important thing is there’s a lot of action and drama that portrays what these soldiers went through. Especially given the format, a television release, this is quite good.

Jim Jarmusch at his best
Night On Earth is a collection of stories from around the world that take place in cabs at night. This was Jim Jarmusch at his best. I liked his first couple movies like Stranger Than Paradise but they were acquired tastes with their slow pace and emphasis upon the little things in life. Night On Earth had interesting people in interesting stories like Giancarlo Esposito teaching Armin Mueller Stahl how to drive his taxi in New York City. They have a lot of fun together which only gest crazier when they pick up Rosier Perez who does nothing but cuss out Esposito. Most of the stories are light-hearted like that but then Jarmusch ends on a down note with a story about love and death. This would be the perfect introduction to Jarmusch if you’d never seen any of his work before.

True story of corporate malfeasance on such a level it's mind boggling
A friend of Mark Ruffalo’s grandmother asks him for legal help to sue DuPont Chemicals over what he claims is chemical dumping into the local water supply. That starts a slow burning legal battle in Dark Waters.<br /><br />Ruffalo finds out that DuPont was exposing the entire U.S. population to unsafe chemicals. You think I’ve spoiled the entire movie but I haven’t because the story and the case goes far beyond that revelation. What’s crazy is that the story keeps on going year after year after year and it keeps you wondering what more they could add. It’s based on a true story about corporate malfeasance on such a huge level it is mind boggling.

If I didn’t know this was an Alfred Hitchcock movie I would have never figured it out. It lacked the style and suspense of his previous films.

Great remake of George Romero film Much better than original
The Crazies was a remake of a 1973 film by George Romeo. He was actually the executive producer for this movie, which is much better than the original.<br /><br />A military plane with a mysterious agent crashes near a town in Iowa and slowly infects everyone. The agent makes people violently attack others. The first hint something is wrong is when a man wonders onto a field during a baseball game with a shotgun and local sheriff David (Timothy Olyphant) has to shoot him. Things quickly escalate as the army is sent in to cleanse the town.<br /><br />Romero of course was made famous by his series of zombie movies. This was a variation of that theme where average middle America faces a sudden mass catastrophe by being infected with deadly consequences.<br /><br />Romero’s original was a low budget grindhouse film. This one did a much better job with all the elements. The tension is greater as the virus spreads. The horror of what people do when they join “the crazies” is much more shocking. The government turns out to be a sinister force rather than a helpful one. Overall, things are a lot scarier with this newer version than the original.<br />C

Can Oscar Isaac heal from his past or is he forever lost?
You hear the title of this movie and think it’s about gambling and cheating. You would be wrong. It’s about the mystery that is Oscar Isaac’s character. He’s an enigma. For instance at the start he talked about how he feared confined spaces growing up but then he found out he actually liked them. Needless to say he had a dark past that deeply scarred him which he tries to forget by playing cards. The story turns out to be whether he can regain his humanity or not.<br /><br />Isaac does a great job. He has a stone face for most of the film. Tiffany Haddish is his backer who is intrigued by him but also knows he might be dangerous. Tye Sheridan is a constant reminder of what Isaac is trying to forget. And yes there is gambling in the movie. It’s very intriguing as it peels away the layers of Isaac’s character to see whether he can heal or whether he’s just gone.

Neurotic and insecure Woody Allen at his best
Annie Hall represents the neurotic, insecure Woody Allen at his best. This was made all the worse because his girlfriend Annie played by Diane Keaton broke up with him. His opening monologue sets up the entire movie. He starts off with a joke and then talks about how miserable and unhappy he is in life. Much of that is due to his relationships with women topped off by Annie Hall.<br /><br />There are all kinds of funny moments like when he gets into it with his elementary school teacher about kissing a girl which leads to Freud. Another time he and Keaton are standing in line for a movie with a man going on and on about movies and a writer. Allen tells him he knows nothing about the writer, then pulls the actual writer out who tells the man he knows nothing. Allen is also full of witty lines like when he says he’s “a bigot, but for the Left” or when he tells his wife that the magazines Dissent and Commentary had merged and become Dysentery. Then he ditches her so he can watch the Knicks game on TV.<br /><br />This really is one of Allen’s best movies and captures his style and story telling technique.

Women are being trafficked A woman cop wants to stop it but the system doesn't care
Rachel Weisz plays an American cop who becomes a United Nations observer in Bosnia to make some extra cash. She finds out that women are being bought and abused in human trafficking rings which are protected by the local authorities, in conjunction with corrupt U.N. workers, and no one cares. When she tries to stop it she’s caught in a huge bureaucracy of different agencies none of which wants to challenge the status quo. The story also plays on the fact that Weisz is a woman and the victims are all woman and thus don’t matter to all the men who run the U.N. mission and other offices. It’s a very powerful, moving and difficult film to watch. It's a powerful message about how following the rules and the system in these types of situation is fruitless.

Light on the exploitation
Pam Grier did four women in prison movies in the Philippines and this was one of them. This one was different however as Grier wasn’t a prisoner. Rather she and Sid Haig are revolutionaries who are going to attack a prison and free the ladies. Most of the film actually focuses upon Anita Ford who’s locked up. The story has its usual mix of sex and violence. The story does drag in the middle however. That’s because it’s actually light on the exploitation. That makes it the worst of the four releases Grier did in this genre.

Group of vampires attack Barrow Alaska like a pack of wild hungry animals
30 Days Of Night was a new and original take on the vampire genre. The setting is Barrow, Alaska which the intro says is covered in darkness for 30 days during the winter. During that period most people leave the town with only a few locals sticking around. That’s the perfect setting for the film which focuses upon a band of vampires which attacks small isolated places like Barrow.<br /><br />The difference between this film and the traditional vampire story is that there is no charming vampire. There is no seduction of women. Instead this is a group of vampires who act like a pack of wild animals. They mercilessly hunt down their pray with a lot of splattering of blood and horror. It’s great stuff. They go through Barrow like it’s Swiss cheese and it’s a pleasure to watch. I didn’t even care about the human survivors I just wanted to see what the vampire ms could do next. The movie really returns the vampires to the evil side of things rather than being debonair men looking for a pretty woman.

Part spoof Part social commentary
You would never know this was a John Houston film. It starts off like a spoof where outlaws becomes judges and marshalls. In one hilarious moment Stacy Keach shows up as an albino bad guy who shoots a horse and tells a man to cook it for him. Then it becomes a bit of social commentary at the end where it comments upon the greed that overtook Texas with the oil industry. It’s definitely something different from your usual Western.

Big action Great cinematography Interesting cast of characters
Yi Zhang is kidnapped by a group of bandits and ends up joining them. The film has some beautiful cinematography and use of colors. There’s an interesting cast of characters and plenty of action. Initially the story seems disjointed but finally comes together as the gang decides to take on the Japanese. Japan during World War II is still a popular topic in movies because it’s a sore point in China.

Didn't add anything to the story of King Arthur
First Knight is based upon the tales of King Arthur. It focuses upon the love triangle between Guinevere who was supposed to marry King Arthur but who falls for Lancelot. For added tensions there’s Prince Malagant who is attempting to provoke a war. The dilemma of the film is whether Camelot can survive these two challenges.<br /><br />The story is part melodrama about Guinevere stuck between two men and part action as Malagant goes galavanting through Camelot. The problem with First Knight is that I never felt a connection with it. I know the Arthurian legend it’s based upon, but this added nothing new to it.

New take on the action-comedy featuring old retired spies and killers
Red was a brand new take on the spy movie. It was based upon a comic book of the same name. What made it different from the rest of the genre was that it focused upon old retired spies and killers. That’s what red stood for, Retired and Extremely Dangerous. It was also an action-comedy that didn’t mind poking fun at itself.<br /><br />The cast started with Frank Moses (Bruce Willis) being targeted by the CIA. He was an old spy who liked flirting with a billing agent named Sarah Ross (Mary-Louise Parker) on the phone because he didn’t have much of a life after the Agency. When his former employer tries to kill him, he decides he has to save Sarah because she would be next for having a relationship with him. That prompts Moses to get his old spy friends together to see what’s up. That includes Marvin (John Malkovich) a crazy old man who was experimented on with drugs back in the day and is extremely paranoid about the government to the point that he lives underground. There’s also Joe Matheson (Morgan Freeman) who is in a retirement home. Finally, Victoria (Helen Mirren) is a former assassin. They bring in the help of KRG operative Ivan Simanov (Brian Cox) because he can help them against the CIA. Speaking of which William Cooper (Karl Urban) is the agent hunting them all down. It turns out Moses and his friends were all involved in an old operation that the CIA wants to be buried and forgotten, and those involved killed as a result.<br /><br />The story has a winning combination as there is constant gun play, chases, etc., and then the characters are thrown into funny situations. Especially good is Willis with Malkovich. The latter really plays the deranged roles well. Mirren was also great as an assassin.<br /><br />Red was a really enjoyable film that had great characters, great acting, a story full of twists that threw in some laughs along the way.<br />C

Satire and sarcasm about childhood dreams
Ted was the brainchild of Seth MacFarlane a master of sarcasm and satire as shown by his TV shows Family Guy and American Dad. He took a childhood dream and twisted it around by having Mark Wahlberg’s teddy bear come alive and be his best friend when he was a grown up. That’s because it symbolizes Wahlberg being a manchild. That leads to plenty of low brow laughs and problems with Wahlberg’s girlfriend Mila Kunis in Ted. If you like MacFarlen’s other work you’ll like Ted.

A story about hope for the future
I was completely skeptical about this movie when I heard about it. How could they forge an entire film based upon one of the “lands” from Disneyland? I was happily surprised by this great family sci-fil story. It focuses upon Britt Robertson who is concerned about the planet and wants to find solutions. Her hope holds the future. She hooks up with George Clooney who is a cynical old man. They make the perfect duo. The story is full of wonder, adventure, creativity, excitement and surprises. It really will inspire you.

Making Dracula a human tragic figure
Dracula Untold is an attempt to make the famous vampire more human. The movie focuses upon Vlad/Luke Evans the ruler of Transylvania splitting with the Ottomans who are portrayed as despots. That’s what leads Vlad to become a vampire to protect his kingdom. Instead of the usual story about him being some kind of beast born to drink blood he’s a tragic hero.<br /><br />Of course there’s plenty of action with swordplay but the best is Evans going up against entire Ottoman armies by himself. It's not a bad adaptation.

A classic Western with an entertaining start
I’ve been watching some classic Westerns lately and the Gunfight At The O.K. Corral is an iconic one. I liked the start with Burt Lancaster as Wyatt Earp the straight-laced sheriff having to deal with Kirk Douglas as Doc Holliday who was a troublemaker. Then the first time Lancaster sees the woman he eventually falls in love with, Rhonda Fleming, he calls her a tramp because she’s a female gambler.<br /><br />After that the movie is a very traditional Western. There’s conflict, there’s love, there’s a big gun fight at the end. I have to say the beginning was the best part of the film but it still kept me interested throughout.

The destruction of Saddam's family
The final episode of The House of Saddam is about the destruction of the dictator’s family. I thought this was an interesting choice because the expected conclusion would be the 2003 invasion of Iraq or his trial. Instead it focused upon his relatives which had been a major theme throughout the series. His two sons in laws Hussein and Saddam Kamal defect to Jordan due to their disputes with Saddam’s son Uday. The consequences are far reaching. Once again Igal Naor does a masterful job as Saddam acting with a cold ruthlessness. The series is a great drama about a country which the U.S. has been entangled with since the 1990s.

What's wrong with captalism and then what went wrong with the revolution against it
Fight Club is an amazingly weird and strange movie that actually portrays the problems with capitalism, a revolution against it, and then what went wrong.<br /><br />It was directed by David Fincher and has all his trademarks. For instance, everything is filmed in a very dark hue. There are very few shots with bright lights. That fits the mood of the film.<br /><br />It features Edward Norton and Bradd Pitt as the two main characters.<br /><br />Norton begins talking about how his job at a car company is a boring and monotonous one. He says everything is a copy of a copy of a copy. He keeps this job because he is such a consumer. He goes home and reads the Ikea catalog and orders all of the latest products like a table with the ying-yang sign on it. Later he meets Pitt as Tyler Durden who tells him being brought up under capitalism just makes everyone a consumer obsessed with buying products that don’t really matter. Durden says, “The things you own end up owning you.” This is the first act of the film, which explains the problems with capitalism. Most people work at jobs they don’t like, to spend their salaries on goods, that are supposed to make them feel better. The more possessions the better person you’re supposed to be. Durden says that’s a lie.<br /><br />The next act is the organization of the revolution. Norton loses his apartment and moves in with Durden. They start a fight club which eventually garners a large following. They meet at night and fight, where they finally feel like people freed from their 9 to 5 jobs. Durden and Norton use this as a device to organize workers to at first carry out acts of vandalism meant to mock corporate America. They go to a video store and eras all the movies using a magnet. They put out a bunch of bird feed on top of a car dealership so the next day all the vehicles are covered in bird poo. This quickly escalates to Durden’s plan to start a revolution with his Project Mayhem meant to undermine capitalism.<br /><br />The last act is what is wrong with the revolution. Project Mayhem ends up just like Norton’s job at the start of the film. Everyone dresses and looks alike. They repeat mantras that Durden has given them. It’s like a cult. Norton ends up rejecting the plan and tries to stop Durden.<br /><br />In these three acts the message of the story is laid out. Capitalism is a soulless system that lies to people that they can be successful when it actually just wants people to spend more money so companies can make more money. The attempt to overthrow that system is no better as it just replaces one system of control with another. The alternative to those two is laid out in the conclusion, but you have to watch the film to figure out what that is.<br /><br />You would never know this from the start however. The opening scene has Durden holding a gun in Norton’s mouth. Then that skips to Norton going to a recover meeting, and then to his job. There is also plenty of foreshadowing of the conclusion as well at the start, but you won’t catch them without a second viewing. That’s what’s so good about Fight Club. You can learn more and more about it each time you see it.

Tries to show not all Germans were Nazi war mongers but doesn't make it a good film
Green Devils Of Monte Cassino is a German film. It takes place around Monte Cassino Monastery in central Italy during World War II. The movie tries to show the Germans as humanitarians and becomes a melodrama rather than a war movie as a result.<br /><br />There are two main parts to the story. The first is a German nurse that works with the paratroopers. She falls in love with one of them. The other part is a German officer that saves the art collection at the monastery from the coming battle. Both were meant to show that the Germans weren’t Nazi war mongers. There is some combat footage thrown in but most of that is from newsreels.<br /><br />Since the Nazi era was such a black stain upon German history it’s probably to be expected that when they make a film about that period it’s not going to be about World War II but tries to show another side of the country and its people. That doesn’t make this movie any good however as it’s a bit of a bore. No matter what the film tries to portray I’m not going to sympathize with a German officer. The love story also gets very dry very quickly and drags things out.

Liked the look of the movie Plot was just OK
The first thing that stands out about The Immortals is how it looks. The colors, the lighting, the set and wardrobe designs, mixed in with computer graphics gives the film a distinct look. I t was probably inspired by 300 which did something very similar.<br /><br />Next, because the story borrows from Greek mythology you get your mix of Greek gods plus other things like the minotaur and his labyrinth.<br /><br />Mickey Rourke plays the villain well. He’s got a dark, sadistic trait to him which fits the role perfectly.<br /><br />For all that however the movie turned out to be just okay. The plot was pretty standard and I couldn’t help but compare it to 300 and it wasn’t as good.

Sophomoric attempt to satirize the music video business It's so bad it's just bad
Tapeheads is a sophomoric attempt to satirize the music video business. Tim Robbins and John Kusack were best friends who were wasting their time being security guards because they didn’t know what to do with themselves. After they’re fired they get inspired to start a video business. While they have artistic talent they have no idea how the business works. Stumbling through the music industry is what the story is about.<br /><br />Somehow they were able to get some famous people to appear in this movie. The first person they work for is Don Cornelius of Soul Train fame. Doug E. Fresh, Ted Nugent, Fishbone, Sam Moore of Sam and Dave, and Junior Walker also appear.<br /><br />If Robbins and Kusack had just been idiots in the music business that might have not been that bad. Instead they chose to take it over the top such as when a music promoter and an artist girl get in an argument over Robbins and Kusack’s business and they pull out nunchucks and switchblades.<br /><br />When you’re finished watching the film you just wonder how it was ever made and who okayed it.<br />C

Mixed bag of tunes All treble mix
This video was released in 1984 and featured Greg Ginn on guitar, Kira Roessler on bass, Henry Rollins on vocals and Bill Stevenson on drums. This came out during the My War, Family Man, Slip It In period all of which came out in 84. It had a mix of old songs like Six Pack and Nervous Breakdown from when the band first started along with plenty of new tunes from the new albums like My War, Can’t Decide, Black Coffee, Slip It In, and Rat’s Eyes. I have to say I wasn’t that much of a fan of about half of the new tunes, especially the slow ones. It was like they were trying to be a punk version of Black Sabbath. Plus Ginn plays a lot of out of tune solos here. My final complaint is that like almost every punk band there is absolutely no bass in the mix. Even on songs like Six Pack that starts with the bass you can barely hear it. It’s basically all guitar, vocals and the snare drum, while everything else is forgotten about. If they had some bass the band’s sound would’ve have been so more dynamic. On the other hand, it’s nice to see Rollins get down during his performance. He was always a good showman.<br />C

Great stylized war film but based upon Orientalism where West good East bad
300 was based upon the comic book series of the same name by Frank Miller and Lynn Varley. It portrayed the Battle of Thermopylae when a small group of Greek fighters led by the King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) of Sparta fought an invading Persian army. Thermopylae or the Hot Gates was a pass in the mountains where a small force could hold up a much large number of opponents. 300 was a great war movie full of CGI enhanced action but with an Orientalist point of view.<br /><br />The movie begins with an almost fetishized version of the Spartan warrior culture where children are taken at a young age and taught about fighting and violence. This builds up the myth of the Spartan fighting men who will be the stars of the story. They are portrayed as proud, strong, and standing for freedom, while the Persians are shown as blood thirsty imperialists. For instance, Leonidas and his men come across a village that was massacred by the Persians and all the dead bodies strewn across a tree. Later the Spartans will face monsters and giant beasts at the hot gates as well. It’s all meant to emphasize the good vs evil theme of the story. The Spartans were democracy and civilization versus the Persians who were oppression and empire. This is called Orientalism view where the West (Spartans) are always portrayed as good and the East (Persians) are bad. Despite that I have to say that I’ve always loved the action and the stylized violence.<br />C

Animated coming of age film with Kugn Fu action good for children and adults alike
Kung Fu Panda was a wonderful coming of age animated film with an ensemble cast that was enjoyable for both children and adults alike.<br /><br />Things start with Po (Jack Black) a panda who dreams of being a martial arts hero, but is a bit of a bumbler who works in his dad’s (Mr. Ping played by James Hong) noodle shop. Above them is the Jade Palace where Master Shifu (Dustin Hoffman), Master Oogway (Randall Duk Kim), and the Furious Five made up of Tigress (Angelina Jolie), Monkey (Jackie Chan), Viper (Lucy Liu), Mantis (Seth Rogen), and Crane (David Cross) reside. They are faced with an existential threat as a former student Tai Lung (Ian McShane) is destined to return and exact revenge. The only defense against this foe is the dragon warriors who is unkown until Po stumbles in, and is selected. The story then becomes about Po finding his potential which he can only do by being happy with himself. That proves to be a great struggle.<br /><br />The story was very well written mixing comedy with action. The opening sequence for example where Po is dreaming of fighting alongside the Furious Five is full of one liners while borrowing from the Kung Fu films of the past. Black did a great job voicing the character. He showed great enthusiasm and immaturity at the same time, and delivered most of the comedy. That combination is why both young and old can enjoy the film.<br />C

Champions Zionism & why Israel was necessary It's just REALLY long
Exodus was directed by Otto Preminger and based upon a book of the same name. The movie champions the Zionist cause to bring Jewish refugees to Palestine after World War II and form the state of Israel. It begins with the Haganah group attempting to smuggle 600 Jewish refugees from Europe out of a British detention camp in Cyprus and take them to Palestine. It then shifts to the Jewish cause in Palestine. The main character is Ali Ben Canaan (Paul Newman) from the Haganah organization, which was a Jewish militia. The movie lays out the argument for the creation of Israel and the righteousness of Zionism. The story is epic, and by that I mean it’s 3 ½ hours long.<br /><br />The movie starts off with some anti-Semitism by American and British characters. Kitty Fremont (Eva Marie Saint) is an American visiting Cyprus that goes to work as a nurse at a Jewish refugee camp. She tells a British general that the Jews are so strange and different to her. She’s obviously had a WASP (White Anglo-Saxon Protestant) upbringing in America and not knowingly been around Jews and sees them as some kind of foreign other. Worse is Major Caldwell (Peter Lawford) who talks about how he can spot a Jew by just looking at them, along with all kinds of other stereotypes. This is meant to give background for why Zionism was necessary along with the creation of a Jewish state. With Europe and America being anti-Jewish many believed they needed a country of their own. This situation was only made the more pressing after the Holocaust.<br /><br />Of course this being Hollywood you can’t take the story as history. For instance, the British general in charge of Cyprus talks about how Palestine was forced upon England by the League of Nations after World War I and that England only talked about a Jewish homeland because it was desperate during the war. Neither of those were true. The British wanted to break up the Ottoman empire after WWI and seized Palestine and other territories. London was also pro-Zionist during and after the war and wanted part of Palestine to be eventually be governed by Jews. Again, these parts were included to support the Zionist cause by portraying the British as being uninterested in the plight of the Jews.<br /><br />This is how the whole film is laid out. It champions Zionism and portrays it as if they were fighting the entire world. Clocking in at 3 ½ hours it does get trying in the middle.<br />C

Sean Lau is angry and wants to find out a heist plot
The police arrest a member of a heist crew and desperately want to find out what his target is and who his accomplices are. The movie is a police procedural with Sean Lau leading the investigation. He doesn’t smile and looks intense and angry most of the time. Usually these types of stores are told from the criminals’ perspective, but this one is all about the cops. The plot moves forward slowly as the details of the plan are revealed piece by piece like a good mystery. It makes for an interesting crime drama.

A story about unintended consequences
Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead is about unintended consequences. Philip Seymour Hoffman and Ethan Hawke are brothers who plan a robbery which goes wrong. Both play deeply flawed individuals which provides their motivation and explains what happens to them afterward. The story telling is interesting because it’s told via a series of flashbacks by different characters. This was also the last film by famed director Sydney Lumet. If you want to see some broken people then Before The Devil Knows is for you.

They actually made an original Halloween movie instead of following the formula
Finally! An original Halloween story! No Michael Myers does not appear on Halloween going house to house killing people until he finds Jamie Lee Curtis. Instead it focuses upon a messed up young man Rohan Campbell and whether he will turn good with the help of Curtis’ granddaughter Andi Matichak or try to follow in the footsteps of Myers. It turned out to be a really enjoyable horror flick because you didn’t know what to expect unlike all the endless Halloween films that have come out over the years.

Jim Carrey is a depressed loner who meets Kate Winslet who is a quirky extrovert. She forever changes him in good and bad ways. It is a relationship film that uses elements of science fiction to tell a tale of their love. It goes through Carrey’s dreams and memories of his time with Winslet, which ones he cherished, which ones he lost, etc. It’s a really unique story telling technique and ultimately comes down to whether the two belong together or not.

A new take on the action thriller featuring a child warrior
Hanna was very different from your normal action thriller. That’s because it starts out in the wilderness of Finland where Erik Heller (Eric Bana) has raised his girl Hanna (Saoirse Ronan) in survival tactics. They want to get back at a CIA agent named. Marissa Wiegler (Cate Blanchett). This is their story of revenge.<br /><br />The movie is much different from your usual action flick. First it features a teen girl instead of your usual lead. Second, she’s like a babe in the woods because she’s never seen things like a phone or electricity before. Third it’s like an adventure as Hannah travels all over the world. Last, it does have some kick butt action to it as well. It’s all a very original and exciting story.<br />C

Woody Allen period piece about philosphy and relationships but falls flat
Love And Death is a Russian period piece taking place in the 1800s. It features the relationship between Woody Allen and Diane Keaton. The movie is full of philosophizing about life, love, and existence. There are jokes thrown in as well for good measure but not enough.<br /><br />The scenes about philosophy are very esoteric. It’s supposed to be satire but the scenes just don’t work. It’s like a debate club trying to be funny but they just end up falling flat.<br /><br />The jokes are much better. For instance Allen asks why they are fighting and his sergeant says you wouldn’t want Russians eating all the rich French food and souffle every day. Unfortunately there are more scenes that flop than work making this a disappointing Allen release.<br />C

A story of struggle and harship for a Japanese woman
Memoirs of a Geisha is a story of hardship for Zhang Ziyi. Sold by her father when she was a child. Split from her sister and put in a Geisha house to be a servant. Then chosen to be a Geisha to not only entertain men but to have a rival (Gong Li) as well who wants to destroy her. Even when she becomes one of the most popular Geisha she is still reminded that she is nothing but a plaything for men.<br /><br />There is some great cinematography in the film. When Ziyi is just a lowly servant there’s no color in her life. Everything is dark and grey. It’s symbolic of her poor state. When she moves up and becomes a popular Geisha suddenly everything if bright and beautiful. For instance she goes to a party in a giant garden full of cherry blossoms and peacocks. It’s a stark contrast from her start. However when she runs into trouble the color disappears once again.<br /><br />It’s a great film. I wasn’t so much into the ending which was very Hollywood but the rest was great. It’s good to see Hollywood make an Asian film and be about women two rarities.

When the chaos of the road touches a bucolic family
Where it all began. George Miller created the original Mad Max film in 1979. It’s not a post-apocalyptic story like the other releases since there are still towns and most importantly law and order as Max/Mel Gibon is a policeman. What it is like is a take on an exploitation film with fast cars, motorcycles, outlaws, plenty of chases and crashes. In contrast to the violence and chaos out on the streets is Gibson’s family life with bucolic music playing in the background. It’s portrayed as the last bastion of civilization and when that comes into conflict with the road it symbolizes the end of everything. Most of the movie is great but the ending is unfulfilling.

More of a drama than action flick
Chow Yun Fat and Andy Lau star in this Hong Kong crime flick so I had to see it. It turned out be a bit of a disappointment. The story revolves around three old friends Chow, Lau and Alex Man reuniting for a big gang war. The problem is it’s not much of a conflict. There’s backstabbing, a little gunplay, cops, etc. but the film turns out to be more of a drama with the main characters plotting and reflecting on their lives more than trying to knock each other off. It also gets too melodramatic when some characters get killed. In one scene for instance a staff member of Chow’s gets shot and there’s cheesy music playing as he holds her.<br /><br />PS This movie is miss labeled. It’s actually Tragic Hero, not Casino Raiders 2 or Black Vengeance.

The appeal is the puzzles even if it is the exact same concept as the 1st Escape Room
So there’s a new game of death just like the first Escape Room. The draw is just like the Saw franchise you want to see what new tricks they can think of even though the concept is no different than the original. It’s also better than Saw because the players have to figure out puzzles to survive. That’s more interesting and entertaining.

Luv is about a day in the life of elementary school kid Woody Watson (Michael Rainey Jr). He lives with his grandmother (Lonetee McKee) and his uncle Vincent (Common). Vincent decides he’s going to take Woody with him for the day instead of going to school to teach him about life and being a man. He gets a lesson in far more than that.<br /><br />Rainey really does a great job with his role. There’s one scene where he and Vincent go to see a drug dealer and Woody does all the talking. He’s talking like a grown man even though he’s in elementary school. There’s another scene at the end where Rainey really delivers an emotional performance as well.

One of the iconic court room films of the 90s
A Few Good Men was an iconic 90s film topped off by Jack Nicholson’s character Colonel Nathan Jessup yelling in court, “You can’t handle the truth!” The movie is a military justice story with two Marines Dawson (Wolfgang Bodison) and Downey (James Marshall) charged with murdering one of their peers Santiago (Michael DeLorenzo). Their defense team consists of Tom Cruise as Lt. Kafee, Demi Moore as Lt. Cmdr Galloway, and Kevin Pollak as Lt. Weinberg. The story revolves around the code of the Marine Corps which is constantly talked about by the characters.<br /><br />Cruise plays a young hotshot lawyer who’d just been in the Navy for a few months but thinks he knows everything. This is very typical for almost all of Cruise’s early roles. Moore plays the serious lawyer who is annoyed at Cruise’s arrogance and who pushes the case. They dynamics drives the story as they two constantly argue at first. Nicholson is only a supporting character with a few scenes but he usually steals the show. He’s old school and arrogant. His explosion in the court with his famous phrase has gone down as one of his greatest. That all makes for a dramatic court case.<br />C

This movie is all about deception. Nothing is at it seems. That was a welcomed surprise because it seemed like a very predictable story at first.

Kurosawa and Mifune's best collaboration
The combination of director Akira Kurosawa and actor Toshiro Mifune were responsible for some of the greatest films Japan ever produced. Roshomon, Seven Samurai, Yojimbo, Sanjuro to name a few are world famous. However what I consider their best collaboration is actually The Hidden Fortress released in 1958. It’s the story of a defeated princess, her top general and two poor and peasant soldiers attempting to escape. It mixes comedy, with the samurai spirit, and human nature in a fantastic combination.<br /><br />The movie begins with two peasant soldiers Tahei (Minoru Chiaki) and Matashichi (Kamatari Fujiwara) trying to get home after being defeated in battle. However they are trapped in enemy territory held by the Yamana clan. The two eventually stumble upon General Rokurota Makabe (Toshiro Mifune) and Princess Yuki (Misa Uehara) of the defeated Akuzuki clan. General Makabe reveals to Tahei and Matashichi that they have gold and rely upon the two’s greed to get them to carry it for them to the neighboring Hayakawa territory where they can find refuge. The opening sets up all the themes of the movie. You have the Akuzuki who while defeated are not beaten because they still have their pride and determination. It was the common peasants like Tahei and Matashichi who fought these wars for the upper class samurai and got nothing out of it, and usually lost their lives. It’s not that they were inherently greedy, but simply being at the bottom in a society where there was little to no social mobility made them jump at the chance to get gold.<br /><br />The story was great as with most of Kurosawa’s work. Mifune played his part magnificently as the cunning general attempting to save his clan. Uehara was very young when she shot the movie but had a fierce presence about her whenever she was on screen. Chiaki and Fujiwara could really be called the main characters as the movie starts with them. They showed the lot of the lower classes, but also provided some laughs as well.<br /><br />The movie had a huge influence on George Lucas. He took the idea of a princess escaping her enemies to be the basis of his Stars Wars: A New Hope, and Tahei and Matashichi were transformed into R2D2 and C3PO.<br /><br />To me The Hidden Fortress has the perfect combination of story, acting, directing and comedy that makes it Kurosawa’s best effort even though it’s usually eclipsed by his other classics.

Good political thriller surrounding an African dictator and a plot on his life
Nicole Kidman plays a United Nation’s interpreter who is drawn into a political thriller when she overhears men discussing assassinating the blood thirsty dictator President Edmond Zuwanie of the fictious African nation of Matobo. That makes her a target for the plotters. It turns out that Zuwanie is going to appear at the United Nations to give a speech very soon. The case is investigated by the U.S. Secret Service agents Tobin Keller (Sean Penn) and Dot Woods (Catherine Keener).<br /><br />The movie starts off as an investigation by Keller and Woods and then turns into an action movie. There are chases, a terrorist attack and more. The one problem is that they form a relationship between Kidman and Keller which was predictable and completely unnecessary. Besides that this was a very good film about political intrigue.<br />C

Part Samurai flick, part Western, part Blaxploitation
Afro Samurai is part Western, part Samurai film, part blaxploitation. It’s like a Western because the main character meets a series of foes in desolate settings like the Old West. It’s like a Japanese period piece with not only samurais but gushing blood that was a trademark of films in the 70s and 80s. Finally it incorporates all kinds of African American culture such as the bad guys sounding like a bunch of old black dudes and more. It is a great series especially because it is almost all action.

Matrix explains how systems of oppression work and how to start a revolution against them
What’s so great about The Matrix is that it works on two levels.<br /><br />First, it is an amazing sci-fi action movie. It used a mix of old and new filming and action techniques to provide something movie goers had never seen. Part of that was Hong Kong’s Yuen Woo-Ping’s fight sequences using wires. This technique had been used for years in Asia, but was rarely seen in western films. Added to that the Wachowskis added innovative film techniques to spin around characters such as the opening sequence where Carrie Anne Moss as Trinity jumps up into the air and the camera pans around her. There is also the gun sequences where Keanu Reeves as Neo and the Agents dodge bullets as they move towards them in slow motion.<br /><br />That’s all great for the casual viewer but there is so much more to the film. Basically, the Matrix is breaking down modern systems of control in the world. The days of dictatorships that try to run people’s lives via a police state are over. Today’s systems like racism, sexism, classism, etc. work via controlling people’s minds and how they think and see the world. More insidious is that people are brought up within these systems and don’t even know they exist just like Neo before he is freed. This theme is played out throughout the entire movie. For example at the very start Neo gets a message on his computer telling him “Wake up Neo. The Matrix has you….” The Matrix is the system of oppression. Some people then knock at Neo’s door looking to buy a hack from him and he asks them, “You ever have that feeling where you’re not sure if you’re awake or still dreaming?” That’s because he realizes that his reality is not what it seems. The problem is he doesn’t know how the system works. That’s why when Morpheus, Laurence Fishburne, warns him that the system is coming to get him and tries to assist his escape at work, Neo can’t do it because people are afraid of change. They are so used to the system that doing something different scares them. Finally, Neo and Morpheus meet and the latter asks Neo if he believes in fate. Neo says no because he wants to be in control of his life. That’s because humans want to be free and not have their lives pre-determined, but that’s what oppressive systems are trying to do to them. Morpheus then offers Neo the chance to strip away the false reality of the Matrix and peer into how the world really works. Neo takes up the offer and begins his journey into breaking down the system of control that runs him and everyone else in the world because people have to understand the system before they can overthrow it. The problem is no one realizes they are living within these systems. Hence Morpheus tells Neo inside a training program that society will actually fight for the system that controls them because people are brought up to believe in it. They are all taught that they can benefit from the system, so people like Cypher, Joe Pantoliano, are willing to sell out their friends with the hope that they can ascend to the top and hold power. At the same time, those at the top like The Oracle, Gloria Foster, realize how things work and want to help those at the bottom like Morpheus and Neo. At the end, Neo becomes a fully realized human being who knows what the struggle is about and how to gain his freedom for not only himself but for others as well. That’s why he is able to finally fight the agents. His last message to the Matrix at the end is that he is going to free humanity from oppression. He is in effect going to lead a revolution.

2nd Guardians deals with fathers siblings and family w/usual mix of music comedy action
The second Guardians of the Galaxy started off right where the first movie left off. There was still the mix of music, comedy and action. This volume focused upon family. First there was the relationship between Quill (Chris Pratt) and his newly discovered father Ego with a brilliant casting choice of Kurt Russell, and then the ties between Quill and Yondu (Michael Rooker) who raised him. Secondary to that was the sibling rivalry between Gamora (Zoe Saldana) and Nebula (Karen Gillan). Finally, there was the idea that the Guardians were a family.<br /><br />The start showed the audience that Volume 2 was going to be just like volume 1. Rocket is making fun of Drax, a giant beast shows up, music starts blasting and Groot dances away while chasing after small little insects and rodents. He you have the comedy the action and the characters.<br /><br />The movie then sets up a comparison between the two father figures. Ego saves the Guardians from destruction by a group called the Sovereign. He then announces himself to the surprise of Quill. On the other hand, Yondu is rejected by his group the Ravagers because he was smuggling kids for Ego. That in fact, was how he found Quill. Hence, one (Ego) is perceived as a hero, and the other (Yandu) is a criminal. The story will then reveal whether these were true characterizations or not.<br /><br />In the end, the movie resolves these stories on a rather heart warming note.<br /><br />C

Heist flick with a sense of humor
The Hot Rock is a heist film with a sense of humor. Robert Redford and George Segal plan a robbery and bring in Paul Sand who talks about how he learned to make bombs at the different universities he attended while Ron Leibman acts crazed every time he gets behind the wheel. It’s also not your usual robbery plot as Redford and company have to do job after job after job. It makes you wonder if they’ll ever be done and makes The Hot Rock not your usual crime movie.

Why Denzel and Crowe agreed to do this movie is anyone's guess
Virtuosity is one of Denzel Washington’s less well known films and that’s for a reason. It’s a sci fi flick where Washington plays Parker Barnes an imprisoned police officer. He’s employed to hunt down a virtual reality program named SID played by Russell Crowe who gets out into the real world. The reason why few people remember it is because the way it looks and plays out is like something Sylvester Stallone or Arnold Schwarzenegger would usually do, not an actor of Denzel’s standing.<br /><br />The problems with the story are many. To start a computer programmer that created SID knows that it’s become a killer and yet wants to protect by letting it out into reality. He couldn’t just create a new program. Another time SID takes over a night club and holds the occupants hostage. Barnes just walks right in and starts shooting as if other police couldn’t have done that before. The company that paid for SID also wants it preserved because of the technological breakthrough it is as if it couldn’t make another one as well. Needless to say the movie is as bad as the writing.<br />C

Mercury always wanted fame & when he found it nearly cost him everything
Bohemian Rhapsody follows a tried and true formula for musical biographies and that’s to pick the performers’ biggest songs and main points from their life and mash them together. It’s worked before and worked again here. It was helped by the fact that Rami Malek was able to carry the story as Freddie Mercury. He portrayed Mercury as a man obsessed with fame and art, and then when he achieved them, he lost himself to the detriment of most people around him.<br /><br />The story really emphasizes the artistic zeal Mercury and the rest of Queen had. They wanted their own sound released their way and wouldn’t take no for an answer. At the same time it covers the costs Mercury faced with stardom where he lost and alienated all those around him.<br /><br />Along the way there’s all the great music of Queen. That’s delivered through both concerts and background music and Queen had a lot of hits. All together it makes for a very enjoyable movie.<br />C

Great build up but didn't like the ending
Secret Window is a psychological thriller based upon a Stephen King story. It features Johnny Depp as the writer Mort Rainey who is in seclusion in a cabin after finding his wife cheating on him in a hotel room. He’s also confronted by John Shooter (John Turturro) who accuses him of stealing his story. The piece in question was called “The Secret Window.” The movie focuses upon Rainey’s anger with this wife and the paranoia that he might have actually committed plagiarism.<br /><br />The problem with the movie is that it has such a build up. There’s Rainey’s confrontations with his wife and Shooter and you think it’s all going to explode. Then the story takes a twist and you just feel disappointed because the start is far better than the conclusion. It just leaves the viewer feeling unfulfilled.<br />C

It's just like the game of Clue
Agatha Christie penned the book that led to this movie. The song about ten little Indians killing themselves off is the backdrop to this film. A group of men and women are brought to an island where they are accused of various murders and die one by one as a result. The fun of the movie is to figure out who the characters are, who gets it and how, who is behind it all. It’s just like the game of Clue which was in part inspired by Christie’s novels.

A truly scary tale
Ethan Hawke is Ellison Oswalt a well-known true crime writer. He moves his family into a house that was the site of a grisly murder where a family of four was hung on a tree in their backyard. Their death is the opening of the film. Ellison finds a series of old 8mm films that document not only the family’s death but a series of other brutal murders. That opens the door to more horrors.<br /><br />The first part of the film is Ellison sitting in his study in the dark watching these gruesome murders. The film does a good job of putting the audience in the same situation he is in with all the creepiness that goes along with it. This is the reason why the movie is so effective because it goes for the dark and scary mood at first.<br /><br />After it establishes that it then goes for the gotcha moments to up the fear level.<br /><br />The result is a truly scary tale.
