Everything goes to hell while babysitting before they all bond
The Sitter was a comedy featuring Jonah Hill as Noah who got hired to babysit three kids, Landry, Kevin and Slater. Everything goes wrong, and yet in the end they all end up bonding.<br /><br />The movie plays upon a predictable story of the kids Noah has to babysit being bad and pushing his buttons but still succeeds. Each kid gets many moments to be the center of attention and Noah is there for them as well.<br /><br />Of course it has to be funny to work and it definitely is. One of the kids likes blowing up toilets. Noah gets slapped around in a bar and saves himself by laying down some truth.<br /><br />That shows that The Sitter has some laughs as well as heart to heart moments. That makes it above average.<br />C

Endearing story about caring for others
Reign Over Me is about friendship. Don Cheadle sees his old friend Adam Sandler for the first time in years. Sandler lost his wife and kids and appears completely disconnected from reality. That sets up this odd couple story.<br /><br />This was one of Sandler’s more serious roles. He’s got some jokes but mostly he just plays a very depressed man. It’s a great performance. Cheadle is engaging as well as the caring friend who didn’t give up on Sandler despite the difficulties he had dealing with him and his mental state. They have fun together and then Sandler has explosions of emotions. The ending gets very serious. It’s an endearing story about caring for others.

Sally Fields goes full vigilante after daughter killed
Sally Fields goes full vigilante in Eye For An Eye after her daughter was killed. Her target is Kiefer Sutherland. He’s more interesting than Field who becomes a paranoid mess out for revenge. Sutherland has this evil little grin that automatically makes him look creepy. My wife really liked this movie because if someone killed her kid she would want to go after the culprit as well. I thought it was a bit too Hollywood.

Smart meticulous successful businessman and the only thing that makes him happy is murder
Christian Bale delivers another riveting performance as Patrick Bateman. He’s smart, meticulous, a successful corporate vice president, and murder is the only thing that gives him meaning in life.<br /><br />The film is just crazy from the start. For instance there’s an opening scene where Bateman goes through his morning routine of preparing his body and skin for the day. It includes exercising and putting on all kinds of lotions, a facial mask, etc. At the same time he says Patrick Bateman is simply a construct, a persona of his own making. He says “I’m simply not there.” Later he says the only feelings he has are greed and disgust. The point of all this is to show that Bateman is an empty man. He has no soul. He’s all about appearances and his base instinct which is killing.<br /><br />After all that you might be shocked to know that the movie is also a dark comedy. It’s constantly mocking the corporate types like when Bateman and his associates compare business cards or how they always talk about going to the trendiest restaurants. They like Bateman have nothing inside.<br /><br />It is one of the most deranged movies out there and incredible at the same time. Bale is amazing as usual.

3 views of black male life in the inner city
Boyz in the Hood was John Singleton’s first release in 1991. It presented three visions of black male life in the inner city. This was a pressing issue at the time because as the opening sequence said 1 of 21 black men were being murdered at the time, often at the hands of another black male. That needed to stop, which was why there was a close up of a stop sign.<br /><br />The three main characters represented the different paths for black men.<br /><br />One was Cuba Gooding Jr’s Tre Styles. He had both parents even though they were separated. He did good in school and wanted to go to college. His father Laurence Fishburne, as Furious Styles taught him about African history and black pride and continued to preach to him into his teen years. Fishburne also tried to instill discipline in Gooding, something that many of the other kids never got at home. That’s something Fishburne told him when he was growing up. The point being that young men needed male role models. He was tempted to join in on the neighborhood’s violence, but his upbringing stopped him.<br /><br />Morris Chestnut as Ricky Baker was a high school football star who believed that sports was his ticket out of the ghetto. He gets recruited by USC, but he doesn’t have a vision for his life outside of football. He also struggled with his SATs to be eligible for a university. He had a baby and gets killed in a drive by, Singleton’s way of saying that this was not a good way to lift up black men.<br /><br />Finally Ice Cube as Doughboy Baker was Chestnut’s half brother who cared about his friends, hanging out, and all the trouble that entailed. His mother not only neglected him, but berated him from an early age taking out her frustration with his daddy on him. She also liked Chestnut much better because of his football skills. He represented all the boys that got caught up in the hood, and had no future besides that. That included going in and out of jail which started when he was a little kid. Their life was about survival, while they also perpetuated all the problems of the community.<br />C

Classic war film full of action
Sink The Bismark is a classic war film about the British attempting to sink the German battleship Bismark. It gets right into the story and avoids the trap of including a love story like so many films from this period. That means it starts building up tension immediately and there are some great action scenes. They tried to make it as realistic as possible using real warships, archival footage and miniatures. Even famed American radio host Edward R. Marrow appeared in the movie. They just don’t make these kinds of movies anymore.

A woman afraid to leave her house is faced with a dilemma
Kimi is a movie inspired by the COVID pandemic directed by Steven Soderbergh. Zoe Kravtiz plays a woman just after the lockdown ended who is afraid to leave her house. She works for a company that’s like Amazon’s Alexa that answers people’s requests inside their homes when she hears what sounds like a woman being assaulted. This creates a dilemma for Kravtiz who wants to help but is trapped inside her house.<br /><br />I thought the film had its ups and downs. I like Kravitz’s portrayal of her paranoia. The sense of being closed in really came through. That had a real Alfred Hitchcock type feel to it. The big finale was exciting as well. Some of the stuff in the middle I could’ve done without but I still liked it overall.

Tame and predictable
My Super Ex-Girlfriend is a romantic comedy with a twist. Luke Wilson breaks up with Uma Thurman who is the superhero G-Girl. She turns out to be possessive and obsessive. On top of that G-Girl’s foe Eddie Izzard has a thing for her. The story revolves around whether the main characters can work out their problems and find love. Nothing really fun happens until Thurman becomes the crazy ex-girlfriend. Even then the story is very tame and predictable making it a disappointment. The only real highlights are Rainn Wilson who plays an unexpected ladies man and Wanda Sykes who is Wilson’s boss and constantly complains about him.

Promising heist film but then falls aprt
Thalmus Rasulala gets out of prison and wants to do a diamond heist. The movie follows the common formula of getting financing, putting together a team, doing the robbery, etc. They also throw in some jokes and some style such as when the crew gets picked up around town in a city bus. I really liked the build-up and the job, but then it kept going for an extended period afterward and that wasn’t half as interesting not to mention the ending was a dud. Very disappointing after such a promising start.

Had a great story and the wirters couldn't do anything with it
This movie is about the Israeli abduction of notorious Nazi Adolf Eichmann. The story goes through stages, the plotting, sending a team to Argentina, etc. I have to say there was little tension or excitement in the plot. Even when they grab him it just goes off as a dud. That’s the problem with the whole movie. It falls flat. It’s pretty incredible that they had this amazing story and the writers couldn’t make it interesting. It was a real shame.

Movie goes in so many directions just looses all sense of purpose
This film was actually released as Casino Raiders II in 1991. It was one of many Hong Kong crime dramas of that decade directed by Johnny To and starring Andy Lau. He’s part of a high stakes gambling crew that breaks up when one of the members Kelvin Wong betrays them. It has a good start and then begins going all over the place and never recovers. It goes from Wong to Lau’s mentor to his gambling friend to his daughter, etc. etc. Then the action scenes become too drawn out for dramatic effect.

Exploration into the differences between black men & African American culture
A Soldier’s Story is based upon a play. It takes place in Louisiana during World War II. An African American Sergeant Waters (Adolph Caesar) is murdered and Captain Davenport (Howard Rollins Jr) comes to Fort Neal to investigate. It’s a mystery as to whether he was murdered by racists or by his fellow black soldiers who disliked him.<br /><br />The movie turns out to be an exploration into the differences between African Americans and their culture. Davenport’s investigation for instance reveals the world of black self-hatred. African Americans are brought up within a racist society that leads many to hate themselves and accept white standards. Sergeant Water was one such person. He hated blacks from the country believing that they were a disgrace to the race and made African Americans look bad in the eyes of white men.<br /><br />It also features a very young Denzel Washington in one of his first big feature roles.<br /><br />It’s a powerful movie

A murder mystery about the excesses of the wealthy
Knives Out is a murder mystery. It starts off going in one direction and then changes course halfway through. The movie is a comment upon the greed and vapidness of the wealthy.<br /><br />The movie starts with the death of famed mystery novelist and millionaire Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer). Detective Lieutenant Elliott (Lakeith Stanfield) and private investigator Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) are brought in to investigate the case. They interview the Thrombey family and help most of which had some grudge against the patriarch of the family. It’s at this point that the various excesses and pettiness of the wealthy are exposed.<br /><br />Craig is great with a southern accent. It’s also good to see Stanfield in films like this. He’s a great actor and it’s nice to see him play in a variety of different stories. The story is also a good whodunnit with a bigger issue behind it.<br />C

This is another episode of Rock Legends on one of my favorite groups of all time The Clash. Again they recycle the same people to do the commentary.

Funny spoof of classic Gulliver's Travels story
This is a re-imagining of the classic Gulliver’s Travels featuring Jack Black. It’s more of a spoof which generally works such as when Black pees to put out a fire at the Lilliput palace. Another time he has Jason Segel recite lyrics from Prince to woo a princess. Most of the time Black just gets to play himself, but I tend to like that because I’m a fan. Chris O’Dowd is a good villain who wants to quash all the fun Black is having. Overall this provides a good time.

Very inconsistent Gets off to a horrible start and then tries to redeem itself
Hamburger Hill is about one American paratrooper unit in Vietnam. It gets off to a very bad start. That’s because the Vietnamese come as part of the scenary. They stand on the side of the road and then of course they’re prostitutes. That also means the only ones that ever speak are the whores and they just talk about how they love sleeping with Americans. It’s very stereotypical and a very racist view.<br /><br />When the unit goes out into the jungle becomes the saving grace of the movie. The scenes capture the costs and the chaos. For instance in one scene helicopters come in and strafe their own troops. There’s also the homesickness like when one soldier listens to a tape recorded by his girlfriend. The attack upon Hamburger Hill takes on a Sisyphean character as the soldiers always roll down it when they get towards the top and repeat the same thing the next day.<br /><br />Overall the movie is too inconsistent and the start is downright bad. It doesn’t reach the level it aspired to.<br />C

When faced with evil and crimes against humanity people must be held accountable
Judgement At Nuremberg is a powerful court drama about morals. It deals with the trial of 4 German judges after World War II. Richard Widmark is the lead prosecutor who accuses the four with destroying the law, murder, torture and atrocities. The main justice is played by Burt Lancaster and is defended by Maximilian Schell who tries to claim that all of Germany is being unjustly prosecuted. Spencer Tracy is the lead American judge.<br /><br />The film has four interesting points.<br /><br />First Tracy has an inquisitive mind and not only wanted to adjudicate the case but tried to understand Germans to comprehend the four defendants. He has a sympathetic view of the people but then all he hears is that no one knew anything about the Nazi crimes and not one of them ever supported Hitler.<br /><br />Second the politics of the time are included. During the trial the Berlin airlift begins as the Soviets tried to cut off the capital from the rest of Germany. American politicians and generals try to influence the case as a result arguing the U.S. is facing down Communism and needed German support not to prosecute them.<br /><br />Third the court watches actual footage of the Nazi death camps. There are endless shots of hundreds of hundreds of bodies. As Widmark tells a general this was what World War II was fought for to end the tyranny of the Nazis and stop their genocide.<br /><br />That leads to the final point which is about morals. Can four judges be held responsible for what Hitler did? Were they loyal Nazis or just jurists that had to follow the powers that be? If Germany committed crimes against humanity is there any way they cannot be found guilty? These are the issues that Tracy is faced with and leads to a powerful conclusion.<br /><br />World War II was a rare moment in history when nations faced real evil and tried to hold people accountable afterwards. This movie explains why that was so important.

One of the great horror-occult films ever
The 1970s was the golden age of horror and The Omen was one of the standout releases during that period. The movie follows the family of Ambassador Robert Thorn (Gregory Peck) and his wife Katherine (Lee Remick). Her child dies at birth and is replaced by another baby without her knowledge. The story centers around the father’s realization that his son Damien (Harvey Spencer Stephens) is more than evil.<br /><br />The Omen does a beautiful job introducing the threat Damien poses. For example, the child has a birthday party and his nanny hangs herself in front of all the children. Then a priest Father Brennan (Patrick Troughton) shows up at Ambassador Thorn’s office and warns him that his son’s birth was unnatural. Damien then has a fit when his family tries to take him to Sunday church service. After that the story begins to focus upon Ambassador Thorn looking into this son and finding out the truth about him. This includes going into the occult and a great scene at a cemetery. The movie posses the question of whether someone so young and who looks so innocent like Damien could be so evil.<br /><br />This really is a classic horror film that should be seen by all who enjoy the genre.<br />C

This documentary covers the famous 1967 Monterey Pop Festival. The beginning sets it up as a huge Hippie event with all kinds of white kids carrying flowers flocking to the show. Each band gets around one song. Some that stand out are The Who that destroyed the stage as they walked off, Otis Redding who went from the high energy Shake to the ballad I’ve Been Loving You Too Long and Jimi Hendrix when he lit his guitar on fire. Who disappointed was the Animals who played Paint It Back without the driving beat. For whatever reason it’s just hollowed out.

Donnie Yen as an abusive cop with an attitude
Flash Point is another police action movie starring Donnie Yen who is after three brothers, Collin Chou, Xing Yu and Ray Lui. The film has an interesting start because it’s about Yen being an abusive cop. That’s supposed to make him a rebel which is reinforced when he goes before a review board and has an attitude. Those two attributes will come out more and more as the movie progresses. Yen is good at these roles and he doesn’t disappoint here. In terms of fighting Yen doesn’t use his usual Kung Fu style but a lot of Mixed Martial Arts with things like knee blows and leg locks. Chou gets the worst of that at the end.

Great start about 18 female killers then falters
This title was only used to sell tickets. The movie was actually made in South Korea using a mostly Chinese cast and then picked up by an American distributor. A disciple is tasked with killing an evil master who has a stable of 18 female killers. The highlight is obviously the women as they get to show off their skills in the opening. Things falter a bit in the middle with some unnecessary comedy but then pick up again with the big finale. I have to say the beginning really is the best part of the film.

Dan Fogler and the others carry this movie
This is the third Fantastic Beasts movie I’ve watched in a row and I still don’t like the main character played by Eddie Redmayne. It’s not just that’s he’s anti-social he acts like he has Asperger which makes it difficult for people to socialist with others. It’s just a totally odd choice for the lead. Yes I know it’s supposed to show that he’s more comfortable with animals than people but it’s still not appealing to me. I also wasn’t sure about Mads Mikkelsen replacing Johnny Depp as the villain. Thankfully the other characters are much better especially Dan Fogler. I would’ve watched a whole movie of him running around with wizards. Fogler and the other actors carry this film.

Riddick is about survival. Vin Diesel finds himself on a godforsaken planet trying to eke out an existence. First he battles beasts and then a group of bounty hunters. It’s fun to watch Diesel play with the bounty hunters but the real draw is the various beasts on the planet. They’re big and ugly.

Classic Jet Li movie
The New Legend of Shaolin is one of Jet Li’s classic films. Li plays a rebel leader against the Qing Dynasty and travels around with his son Tse Miu who is also a martial arts master. Miu looks like a little Shaolin monk with a mostly bald head. The movie mixes in great action sequences with comedy. Miu for instance gets into constant fights with other kids in the town, while the two female leads Chingmy Yau and Deanie Ip are con artists who embarrass Li every chance they get.

Supposed to be high tension crime drama but never worked for me
Storm Fear is supposed to be a high tension crime drama. A group of criminals led by Cornel Wilde and Lee Grant and Steven Hill show up at the home of Wilde’s brother Dan Buryea, his wife Jean Wallace and their young son David Stollery. There’s the conflict between Wilde who was a screw up and Buryea who was the star of the family. Wilde and Wallace used to be an item. Hill is always threatening people. They end up going on a snow trek. This should all work but I just don’t think it has aged well. I never got into the story. They added melodrama in there as well which is never good in my book.

If not for Christopher Walken and Denis Leary this movie would be a waste
Christopher Walken walks into a movie and I have to watch it. Walken is both suave and menacing in his role. The problem is the story is completely ridiculous and crazy. It really makes little sense and I won’t spoil it by explaining all of it. Here’s just one part. A group of rich kids kidnap Walken because they have no cash and need to use his. Despite that there were still some good parts. Walken of course shined as usual. There’s a scene of him in the 70s with long hair which is hilarious. Denis Leary is one of Walken’s henchmen. He’s manic and high strung throughout the movie. If not for those two this movie would be a waste of time.

The meteoric rise of Selena
Selena is like many other music biopics but different as well. It’s similar because it follows Selena’s meteoric rise as a Tejano singing star mixed in with her biggest tunes. The difference is that the movie is much more about her life than the music. This was Jennifer Lopez’s first big starring role and she fit the part well. Both of them didn’t speak Spanish but had to learn it for different reasons, Selena to sing songs and Lopez to act in certain films like this one. Edward James Olmos is her father and manager. He had the vision to make his daughter into a singing sensation. Some of the scenes get overly melodramatic but it’s a good movie overall.

The film that inspired the Japanese monster craze
This is the American version of Goldzilla which features extra footage featuring Raymond Burr as an American reporter covering the story.<br /><br />The film is deeply influenced by the aftermath of World War II. The starting scene shows a destroyed Japanese city which could have been a documentary shot of an urban area bombed by the United States. Then it's revealed that Godzilla was created by nuclear testing, which the U.S. had carried out post-war to create bigger and more deadly versions of the bomb. Finally, the ending poses the question of whether these types of weapons were even good for humanity as a Japanese scientist Dr. Serizawa (Akhiko HIrata) develops a weapon that could kill Godzilla, but also could be weaponized by a government to wipe out people.<br /><br />This movie really is a classic. Not only did it start the Japanese monster craze in Japan it introduced the genre to the United States as well. It's message about WWII and its legacy is also poignant and makes it a shade above its contemporaries.

Boris Karloff as a crazy scientist. John Carradine as Dracula. Lon Chaney Jr. as the Wolfman. That would seem a great mix and it works out well at first, but then the story falls off a cliff. There’s a sunken ice cave. A love triangle. Murders and more. They just tried to throw in too much.

Amazing performance by Jessica Chastain about a woman who believed God loved everyone
Jessica Chastain delivers an amazing performance as Tammy Faye Bakker. You really believe she’s the character. She’s perky and full of faith. The most important thing is that she believes that God loves everyone including gays and feminists which other televangelists who are conservatives condemn. Andrew Garfield as Jim Bakker is just as good. He saw the ministers on TV and wanted to be just like them and did. He constantly wanted more and that led to debts. That was because he believed Christianity was about making money which was supposed to lead to happiness. There are two other stand out characters. That was Cherry Jones as Chastain’s mom. She never approved of Chastain’s life and never thought a ministry should make money. She was also cold and bitter throughout which was a big contrast to Chastain who was always happy. Finally there’s Vincent D’Onofrio as Jerry Falwell. He played his character as a politician who wanted to battle liberals and support the Republicans. Interestingly when the Bakker’s ran into problems he helped take them down which also seemed a political decision.

Paterson makes poetry out of his monotonous life but the film ends up being repetitious as well
Adam Driver is Paterson who lives with his wife Laura (Golshifteh Farahani), drives a bus everyday and writes poetry.<br /><br />All the characters are a bit eccentric. Paterson does the same thing every day and yet seems relatively happy. When he drives his bus for instance, he enjoys listening to people tell stories. He also writes poetry during his free time. His wife creates art all the time but wants to have a cupcake business one day and then be a country singer the next. His friend in the bar is named Sam who has a twin brother Dave named after the 60s Soul singing duo Sam & Dave.<br /><br />The problem with the movie is that it eventually gets as monotonous as Paterson’s life. Jim Jarmusch directed the film and he’s always gone for the slow paced plots, but there’s little different from the start of the movie to the end. Yes you can see how he takes his day to day life and makes poems out of them, but still I was hoping something, anything would happen at the end, but it really didn’t.<br />C

By contrast, Laura´s world is ever changing. New dreams come to her almost daily. The film quietly observes the triumphs and defeats of daily life, along with the poetry evident in its smallest details..

Dumb plot Only worthwhile for watching the explosions
The premise of this film is ridiculous. Humans send out messages to a planet that might be inhabited. They reply by sending a force to take over the Earth and the only thing that can stop them is an old World War II battleship hence the title of the movie. That’s enough to make a lot of people not watch. The draw is to see all the explosions and the aliens. Is that enough? I would never pay for this film. I have watched it several times when it’s free on TV for some mindless fun and that’s really about the best you can say about it.

There's a reason why this sequel isn't talked about much
There’s a reason why Predator 2 isn’t talked about half as much as the original. That’s because it is cheesy and over the top. This time the Predator lands in downtown Los Angeles and runs into police detective Lieutenant Mike Harrigan (Danny Glover).<br /><br />The tone of the film is set with the opening sequence where there is a huge gun battle between a drug gang and the Los Angeles police. Lt. Harrigan arrives, crashing his car through the various police vehicles to get close to the fight, and then pulls out a giant pistol with a scope on it. It only escalates from there, and it’s totally overblown and overkill. The battle does attract the attention of the Predator who decides Lt. Harrigan is the man he wants to hunt.<br /><br />Given that start you can’t expect this to be like the original. That was a classic and for good reason. This one just gets ridiculous and can only be enjoyed if you suspend your disbelief.<br />C

Story meanders too much and even the fight scenes can't save it
Martial Arts Of Shaolin features a young Jet Li in a very dragged out plot. At the start a Chinese governor executes a man claiming he is the power in the area. The next 30 minutes are then spent showing Li at a temple. It’s only later that the dead man’s daughter tries to get revenge and Li is dragged into the affair. There’s a lot of time spent on Li training his Kung Fu, always a popular topic in Hong Kong films, and then a lion dance. Call me impatient but I wished they’d had a more concise story that integrated the revenge story with Li quicker. Unfortunately the rest of the movie meanders along as well. You would think the fight scenes would make up for that but there’s too much space in between each one.

The first appearance of Mechagodzilla! Godzilla had some great foes but this might be my favorite. The DVD comes in the original Japanese, dubbed in English or Japanese with English subtitles.

Good doc Highlights are all the movie clips of the crazy movies that have been made
This is a documentary that explores the history of exploitation films in America. It notes that from the start of the movie industry in America there have been titillating titles sold to the public. During the moral code years these types of films went underground but then they exploded in the 1950s when the rules were loosened. The film also notes the trends in the films like toughies which featured women being sadistically beaten to the more well known gore flicks to blaxploitation.<br /><br />For a movie that mostly features talking heads this isn’t bad.

Stabs a knife into the pretiousness of the gourmet food industry
I’m a Foodie so I loved how this movie started with a bunch of people going to an exclusive restaurant with all the pomp and pretentiousness that goes along with it. That’s the whole point. It’s a satire that takes a knife to the gourmet food industry and all its followers like myself.<br /><br />Ralph Fiennes plays the psychopath well along with his stone faced assistant Hong Chau. Anya Taylor-Joy is the best character because she’s the only one that doesn’t fall for the show. That’s because she’s not like the other customers. You’ll have to figure that out for yourself. Nicholas Hoult and Paul Adelstein are the most annoying with Hoult only caring about the imagery and Adelstein being an enabler.

Waterboy definitely has funny moments. For instance Adam Sandler rambles on about football at a kids camp put on by Lawrence Taylor which leads him to reply that the kids should never smoke crack.

Interesting looking at Bridge tournament life but then again not many care
I can’t believe I watched a documentary about cheating at Bridge. This is a game that my grandparents and their family and friends played. The film doesn’t even really explain how you play bridge it just jumps into the story of how two Israeli players were accused by their peers of cheating and then all these other people jumped on the band wagon. They even threw in statistics and probabilities and yet I watched the whole thing. It was also hard to sympathize with the main guy under investigation because he was arrogant. Where the movie leads to is what I actually found interesting because it went into the entire bridge community. It also follows a traditional documentary style of talking head after talking head. Dirty Tricks was interesting but it definitely is for a niche market because I don’t know many people that even know what Bridge is these days.

Man With A Gun is a neo-Film Noir crime thriller featuring Michael Madsen as the hitman John, Jennifer Tilly as Rena Rushton, Gary Busey is her husband Jack Rushton, and Robert Loggia as Philip Marquand. Rena tries to blackmail Jack and his business partner Philip. In return Jack hires John to kill his wife. The twist is Rena is cheating on her husband with John. That leaves him stuck in between his boss and his lover a typical Noir trope of a man up against the odds.<br /><br />The Noir feel of the film is obvious with John giving a voice over throughout the film where he reflects and contemplates his difficult situation. Tilly also plays a femme fatale, a dangerous women who manipulates men to achieve her goals. She excels at the role. She’s sexy and dangerous and one of the best parts of the film.

Totally flawed premise but the 2nd resurrection provides a good ending
This was the original 1980s version of the Stephen King book where a haunted cemetery can bring things back to life. As you can guess it leads to horrible results. The movie starts off well but when the cemetery and it’s powers are introduced there are immediate problems. If they knew the place caused problems why would they go there? Supposedly it’s because they thought people couldn’t handle death so they just accept bad things will happen. That doesn’t make any sense. Yes, there’s motivation there but really it just seems like a flawed premise. On the positive side the second resurrection is pretty good so the movie ends well.<br />C

John Carpenter's best? A sci-fi/horror/thriller never seen before starring Kurt Russell
In 1982 famed horror director John Carpenter released the Thing. It was a remake of the 1951 The Thing. In that movie the monster was basically a Frankenstein rip off right down to the domed head. Carpenter’s vision was something completely different that would go down as a sci-fir/horror classic.<br /><br />Instead of a Frankenstein monster Carpenter created something never seen before. A living organism that had multiple arms, legs, tentacles, eyes, mouths, etc. Every time it made its appearance it looked different. One of the most famous images is when one of the Americans is found out to be the alien and is burned with a flame thrower but its head separates from the rest of the body, grows legs like a spider and eyes pop out of the chin as it tries to scurry away before MacReady (Kurt Russell) burns it too.<br /><br />Of course things wouldn't be the same if Russell wasn't the star. He and Carpenter formed quite a relationship over a series of films and this might be the best one out of them.<br /><br />Nothing was seen like this before. It was completely creepy and suspenseful which is why it still stands up as one of the best of its genre.<br />C

All the concepts of good guys and bad guys are turned upside down
This is an interesting twist on the traditional Western. Glenn Ford is a former Union war hero who becomes a judge. He should be the hero but he’s psychotic. At one point he burns down an entire town to get some bad guys. William Holden turns out to be the good guy as Ford’s lieutenant and marshal who thought he could moderate him. Then the bad guy James Millican takes up for the ex-soldiers/miners who are exploited by a rich businessman who takes all their claims. So the law is twisted, the criminal is standing up for the people and the marshal turns against his boss.

Captures Elton John's flaymboyance and inner demons in a musical
Elton John walks into a therapy group and declares all of his addictions from drugs to drinking to sex and then flashes back to his past starting with his childhood. The movie tries to explain how he got into so many addictions and other troubles from his family to music to his sexuality. The movie switches back and forth from retelling his story and fantasy elements. Thus starts Rocketman a musical biography of Elton John.<br /><br />It’s impossible to watch this movie and not compare it to its contemporaries Bohemian Rhapsody about Freddie Mercury and Queen, Get On Up about James Brown, and Ray about Ray Charles. All of them talked about the rise and fall of the artists. They also mostly followed the formula of picking the biggest songs and mixing them with the main points from the person’s life. The difference between them and Rocketman is that this is a musical. It captures the flamboyance of Elton John along with his inner demons and plenty of his songs.<br />C

The Librarian returns to its nerdy roots and that's a good thing
Curse of the Judas Chalice returned to the nerdy fun of the first Librarian movie which was missing in the second. This time Noah Wyle is dealing with vampires so the plot was interesting as well.

Quest for understanding and meaning in this totally original & different story
Arrival is a sci-fi film heavy on the science. Amy Adams plays a linguist and Jeremy Renner a physicist who work with the military to try to interpret what aliens are doing landing upon the Earth.<br /><br />The movie really plays upon the mystery of the aliens. There’s the touching of the vehicle. The disorientation of the gravity while inside of it. The attempt to communicate with them. Those lead to the other issues which are discovery and the search for meaning. That’s actually foreshadowed at the start when Adam’s loses her daughter which makes her question everything. She constantly thinks of her daughter searching for understanding like she’s trying to do with the aliens. The dilemma for Adams and Renner is that they are up against the military and government and you can guess what their opinion of aliens is.<br /><br />It’s totally different and original.

Battle of freewill vs oppression with the Church the bad guys and the Muslims the heroes
Assassin’s Creed took elements from the video game and turned it into its own story and what a VERY interesting one it was. The Catholic Church via the Templars the famed Crusaders were out to erase sins from society and in trying to do so believed it had to control people. Their latest plan was to acquire something called the Apple of Eden that was supposed to control free will. Protecting the Apple were the assassins who were originally made up of Spaniards and Arabs working for the Muslim empire. Thus the church were the bad guys and the Muslims were the heroes. It was this theme that made Assassin’s Creed better than your average action film because it was about the battle between freedom and oppression using not the usual suspects.<br /><br />The movie starred Michael Fassbender as Cal who was thought to contain the secret to where the Apple was. The Templars created a device called the Animus that can view the past based upon a person’s ancestors and they believed that Cal’s forefathers hid the Apple. At first, Cal wants to destroy the Assassins and turn over the Apple because he blames them for the death of his mother, but eventually he literally sees the light.<br /><br />When Cal travels back in time he witnesses the true nature of the Church. He’s in Spain during the Inquisition when the Church is burning people at the stake for their sins and attempting to kidnap a young prince to force the Sultan to give up the Apple. That compares to the present time where they are talking about ending violence in society and have set up a scientific institute to that goal.<br /><br />On top of all that the action is great. The movie captures the high flying aspects of the video game for instance with a great series where Cal’s ancestor Aguilar and his partner Maria run across building tops along parapets, etc. just like in the game.<br />C

Youthful innocence and discovery while fighting ghosts
I was really impressed by this movie. It posed itself as a kids’ ghost story and had a lot of elements you would associate with a Steven Spielberg movie such as childhood innocence and discovery.

Steve Martin is perfectly cast in this take off of Cyrano de Bergerac
Roxanne is a takeoff of Cyrano de Bergerac with Steve Martin playing C.D. who is in love with Roxanne (Daryl Hannah), but she falls for one of his employees Chris (Rick Rossovich).<br /><br />The movie does a great job incorporating elements of the original play. For example Bergerac was known as being a swordsman so in the opening C.D. takes on two drunks with a tennis racket in a faux sword fight. It’s also got plenty of witty dialogue which again was a characteristic of Bergerac such as when a man insults C.D.’s nose in a bar and then he respond by dealing him 20 insults. Most famously is Chris reciting lines to Roxanne while C.D. is hiding in the bushes telling him what to say.<br /><br />Steve Martin was perfectly cast in this very endearing romance.<br />C

Marlon Wayans made another hilarious spoof
Marlon Wayans has done a series of spoofs of popular films and this was another successful one. There were plenty of sexual and low brow jokes but they really worked. Affion Crockett and Jenny Zigrino nearly stole every scene they were in. My main complaint was that there was an abrupt ending. What happened? They run out of money? Despite that Fifty Shades of Black was still hilarious.

1 of the great depictions of the slave trade in midst of court case for freedom
Djimon Hounsou helps lead a revolt on a slave ship in the middle of the Atlantic. They take control of the boat and end up in New England where they’re put on trial. Their case becomes disputed between several parties. The movie, which is based upon a real event follows two abolitionists played by Stellan Skarsgard and Morgan Freeman who hire a lawyer played by Matthew McConaugh to defend the Africans with the hope of freeing them. They end up going against the U.S. government which wants to maintain slavery.<br /><br />Hounsou really shines in his role. There’s a powerful moment in court when he calls out for his freedom. McConaugh as the lawyer is also good. John Quincy Adams played by Anthony Hopkins gives the big speech at the end but I didn’t find it that great. The most compelling part of the film is its depiction of the Africans being enslaved and the passage across the Atlantic. It’s horrifying.

Usual gangster topics but is about Chinese American gang which is unique
Asian gangster movies? Everyone’s got them from the Chinese to the Koreans etc. Asian American gangster flick? Now that’s something new and what Revenge of the Green Dragons is all about.<br /><br />Like the Godfather II Revenge of the Green Dragons starts with the background to the rise of Chinese gangs in Queens New York. That started with a new wave of Chinese immigrants Justin Chon being one of them. Chinatown in Manhattan was too crowded so they moved to Flushing. There gangs started including the Green Dragons.<br /><br />The film then gets down to the usual gangster stuff of extorting money, violence, drugs, betrayal, and the cops. Revenge of the Green Dragons is therefore very traditional in much of its content. The fact that it covers Chinese Americans however makes it stand out. I was pleasantly surprised with the film. Justin Chon is also a favorite of men and I try to watch all his movies.

This was the sequel to The Abominable Dr. Phibes. Vince Price returned as the lead.

Phibes for example has an underground lair with a mechanical band with an art décor.

Not a bad take on the vampire genre
Dracula 2000 was panned by the critics when it came out but it’s actually not bad if you look at it as a B movie. The story follows the revival of Dracula (Gerard Butler) and his search for Mary Heller (Justine Waddell) who is actually part of the famed vampire hunting family the Van Helsings.<br /><br />There are some elements that really work. First, the story uses some of the classic elements of the vampire stories. For instance Dracula is a ladies man both feeding on their blood and seducing and turning others. Second, there’s some good imagery like Mary walking out into a hallway at her house that’s been transformed with red paint and red drapes the color of blood obviously. Finally, there are some action sequences thrown in as well. All together that makes Dracula 2000 not a bad horror movie.<br />C

2 parallel love stories about choosing between short and long term goals in life
The Photograph tells two parallel love stories during two different decades. In the 1970s Y’lan Noel and Chante Adams were going out in Louisiana. In the present, Adams’ daughter played by Issae Rea begins seeing LaKeith Stanfield. The two stories parallel each other as people have to choose between short and long term goals in life which includes moving to new places that threaten the relationships. The writing is really strong. There’s a strong sense of sentimentality but it doesn’t get sappy or too melodramatic. It just has the right mood and feel to it.

Despite some issues the overall story saves the day
The Fantastic Four along with Spider-Man, Ghost Rider and Blade were Marvel’s earliest attempts at getting into the movies before the Marvel Cinematic Universe took off. The story focused upon the origins of the group and their arch nemesis Dr. Doom. While the movie got panned by some it wasn’t bad.<br /><br />First what the movie got right was capturing many of the core elements of the comic books. For instance, Johnny Storm (Chris Evans) was portrayed as immature and impetuous. It had Reed Richards promise Ben Grimm (Michael Chiklis) he’d reverse his condition when he turned into The Thing. It also played with the characters’ powers like Grimm not being able to pick up utensils because his rock hands were too big or Johnny making popcorn by holding a popcorn bag in his hand and heating it up with his superpower.<br /><br />There were still some problems. Casting Jessica Alba as Sue Storm and making her dye her hair blond was not a good look. The make up they did on Chiklis to transform him into The Thing also needed a lot of work. He didn’t look big or menacing like the character was supposed to. They also had some bad writing like Grimm’s fiancé dumping him on a bridge after he just saved some people or Johnny getting bored so he decides to take part in a BMX event on ESPN.<br /><br />Still, the story overall was good with them facing off against Victor von Doom (Julian McMahon) at the end. People could hold their nose through the questionable parts and enjoy the movie overall.<br />C

From mama's boy to rap star
Jamal Woolard is Christopher Wallace the Notorious BIG. The movie covers his rise from a drug dealer to a rap star and deals with several issues in his life. That includes his close relationship with his mother played by Angela Bassett. His love life with various women usually at the same time and the trouble that brought. Antonique Smith as his wife Faith Evans has a good scene where she busts into a hotel room and smacks a side chick Woolard is with. There’s also Puffy/Derek Luke who launched his career and of course the conflict with Tupac/Anthony Mackie. Surprisingly his music doesn’t play a larger role in the film. Woolard does a convincing job as Biggie as well as Luke as Puffy. I also like how it portrayed Wallace as a mama’s boy drawn to the streets by money when he was a kid. Finally, they had Biggie’s son C.J. Wallace to play his father at the start. A nice homage.

The balance between humans and nature must be restored
Nature is a mainstay in the art of many east Asian cultures and that’s been brought to the story of Princess Mononoke. A clan is cutting down the forest and mining ore which angers the animals who are literally filled with rage out of a desire for revenge. The idea of wiping out the environment is also symbolized by the start as a prince who looks like he’s based off of the Ainu who were the original inhabitants of Japan before being colonized and almost wiped out first discovers the evil happening. Princess Mononoke is with a wolf god and is trying to destroy the humans. It’s up to the prince to try to restore the balance between the two before a catastrophe happens. The movie has samurais, giant beasts, magical animals and plenty of action. The latter gets very graphic with hands and heads being detached. The story seems black and white but it’s not. The clan destroying the area is led by Lady Oishi who frees women from bondage and employs lepers. It’s one of my favorite Hayao Miyzaki films.

Story full of symbolism about the Americans entering the Vietnam War
The Quiet American was based upon a 1950s book by Graham Greene about the end of French colonial rule in Vietnam and the start of the American involvement there. The story revolves around British journalist Thomas Fowler (Michael Caine) as the outside observer of events in Vietnam, Alden Pyle (Brendan Fraser) who is a diplomat who obviously represents the Americans, and Phuong (Do Thi Hai Yen) who is Fowler’s girlfriend but who starts seeing Pyle. The movie begins at the end and flashes back to explain how things transpired.<br /><br />The story is full of symbolism. Phuong going from Fowler to Pyle for instance is about Vietnam passing from old Europe to the United States. The Americans came claiming they were supporting democracy but propped up military men who had no interest in people’s rule as the future of the country. Pyle claiming the Americans could do in Vietnam what the French couldn’t stood for the hubris of Washington when it entered the war.<br /><br />The movie works on several different levels from the political to the personal between Fowler, Pyle and Phuong.<br />C

This movie is a total mess
The Circle is a disaster of a movie. It has a message about the trouble with big tech companies like Facebook who in their desire to do good and connect everyone can end privacy and cause all kind of other problems. The issue is that the movie goes all over the place and is horribly written. One moment Emma Watson jumps in a kayak and almost drowns on some dumb mission, the next she decides to go full public and have almost every moment of her life shown on the Internet. Then there’s this conspiracy stuff thrown in, etc. This movie really could have been something if they had just stuck to one single plot line but it’s all over the place.

Overlooked Spike Lee Joint on the cost of the crack years on the African American community
Clockers is a Spike Lee Joint about the cost of the crack years. The opening sequence drives that home as it pictures a series of dead black people killed because of drugs. This is the kind of film that Spike Lee was made to make. The story is loosely based upon a book by Richard Price. It focuses upon a local drug dealer Strike (Mekhi Phifer). The man he works for is Rodney Little (Delroy Lindo) who is like a father figure to him. There are also two detectives Klein (Harvey Keitel) and Mazilli (John Turturro).<br /><br />The dynamic between the police and dealers is set up in the next scene. Strike and his crew are outside a housing project doing their business when the cops roll up on them. They humiliate them by grabbing their faces and demanding to see underneath their tongues and then have them pull down their pants to look in their butt crack claiming they might be hiding drugs there. The police know they’re not going to find anything it’s just to let them know that the police can do almost anything to them anytime even though it won’t end the drugs.<br /><br />The cost of dealing is introduced next as it turns out Strike has ulcers because of the stress that dealing puts on him. He constantly has stomach pains.<br /><br />Later the movie focuses upon Rodney’s candy store where he also gives haircuts. There are all kinds of kids and teenagers there that he preaches to about how he’ll take care of them and put money in their pocket if they work for him. Strike does the same thing taking in a kid from the projects.<br /><br />Finally, there’s Officer Andre (Keith David). He stops by the projects Strike deals at to give a talk to him and the little kid Strike is trying to recruit. He gives speeches about how the kid needs to stop hanging around the dealers and how Strike needs to get out of drugs otherwise he’ll end up dead. He knows that arrests aren’t the answer so he’s trying to appeal to people’s hearts and minds. It’s an uphill battle but he’s not giving up.<br /><br />These are all themes of the film. One, the police aren’t fighting a war on drugs they’re just trying to exert power over black men. Second, the drug game is about black men like Rodney and Strike exploiting the younger generation. Third, Officer Andre is trying to play a counter father figure to Rodney. They both know the community is at stake with the dealers winning. Andre knows there’s a lack of positive African American male role models and he’s trying to be that.<br /><br />The movie comes to focus upon Strike. He’s smart and the ulcer is a sign that he knows what he’s doing is wrong and that it will eventually get to him. The question is whether he’ll get out of the game before it’s too late.<br /><br />This is one of Lee’s really good movies that usually gets overlooked for his more well known releases. It’s well worth watching.<br />C

Unsung Masterpiece
Planet Terror is an unsung masterpiece. Made by Robert Rodriguez it was originally released as a double feature with Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof. Planet Terror was by far the better of the two.<br /><br />Things start with a shady scientist trying to sell some type of military gas to a group of soldiers only for things to go utterly wrong. First his henchmen allow some people exposed to the gas to escape. Then the soldiers demand their gas only to get into a shoot out with the scientist. During the gun battle the gas is released into the atmosphere which leads to the all the surrounding people to be infected. They go around attacking and eating people ala zombies although they are not quite the living dead. In the middle of things Wray played by Freddy Rodriguez and Cherry Darling played by Rose McGowan collect together a rag tag group of survivors attempting to escape the chaos.<br /><br />The movie really captures the best of old 70s B-movies. There’s real sexiness to the female characters without the gratuitous nudity. There’s all kinds of action, gun battles, blood and guts, and monsters galore. The movie never takes itself seriously either which adds another great element. For example Cherry loses her leg and gets it replaced by a M16! What more could you ask for.

Not your usual Western Just wished they dropped the 30 min conversation in the middle
I really enjoyed the remake of this movie but never saw the original until now. The beginning and end were good but the middle dragged things down.<br /><br />The movie plays upon two opposites. Van Heflin is a struggling rancher who agrees to help the local Sheriff because he’s so desperate for money to save his ranch. He’s compared to Glenn Ford a captured infamous outlaw. At the start Ford shoots one of his own men so that he can rob a stagecoach. It’s the ordinary man with a ruthless criminal. That’s good but the drawback is that in the second half they put the two characters inside of a hotel room where Ford tries to get under the skin of Heflin. Yes they cut to other things but the focus remains on the two talking and it goes on for 30 minutes. They needed to think of another vehicle to play this out because it just kills the momentum of the film. The big gun battle and especially the twist at the end saves things and make this not your usual Western.

It was a made for TV movie so....
Deadly Mission was a 1987 made for TV movie take off of the 1967 hit film. It featured Telly Savalas in the lead who was in the original. It was some bad casting however as he was so old at that point that he could barely run in the opening action scene. In fact, half the main characters are all his age. That’s not the only problem, the plot is the same as the movie. Savalas gets a bunch of criminals out of prison to be his unit, they train, they get one day with girls, etc. On the other hand this was a TV movie so it had to work with that limitation.

Roman wants to restore honor and finds a British friend as well
The Eagle is a historical action movie based upon the Roman occupation of Britain. The story is about redemption for Roman commander Marcus Flavius Aquila (Channing Tatum). He chose to be appointed to lead an outpost in Britain after his father lost an entire legion. He wants to reclaim his family’s name and honor. What’s interesting about the film is that the middle of it is all about the British when most would just stick to the Romans. A British tribe is featured along with their language. In the end the movie turns out to not only be about honor but friendship as well.<br /><br />Overall it’s a good action movie.<br />C

Didn't have the depth of the 1st Venom film but was really funny
What’s ironic is that Marvel has started faltering with some of their movies while Sony’s films have gotten better. The Venom series is a perfect example.<br /><br />Let There Be Carnage was a much different film from the first. The original was about Tom Hardy being a crusading journalist having to deal with sharing his body with Venom while fighting the hubris of the rich and powerful. Hardy’s character therefore dominated the story. Let There Be Carnage was the opposite with Venom’s personality being the star. This was infused with a lot of comedy like Venom complaining about chickens and going to a party where he talked about being free. That was mixed in with action in the second half as Venom fought Carnage. Overall this didn’t have the depth of the first one but was really funny.

Bad Boys ain't what they used to be
Bad Boys haven’t aged well. This is the third installment of the franchise and it did not go well. The theme is that Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) are now grown up, mature, and trying to change their lives. Marcus for example has a grandchild right at the start of the film, and tries to talk Mike out of his wild ways of car chases and gun fights. It turns out they’re dragged back into their bad boy ways by a Mexican drug family that seeks revenge against Lowrey.<br /><br />Overall, the movie largely falls flat. There are a couple funny jokes, but there’s nothing really special about the film. If you're looking to catch a reliving of the previous films it's not really there. It doesn’t offer anything any other action cop movie might provide.

Jovovich shines as an inspirational Joan
The first thing that stands out about The Messenger is the stark contrast between Milla Jovovich as Joan of Arc and the French establishment. The lords are cynics and selfish while Jovovich is an innocent. She has this one face that just projects that image. That division never ends. Jovovich also does a convincing job portraying herself as someone touched by holy visions, and that again transfers over to her leadership qualities. I even felt inspired by her incessant screams to her men to take up arms and fight.<br /><br />On top of that the battle scenes are impressive. There are a large numbers of extras, all kinds of weapons of war and some gore thrown in for good looks.<br /><br />The one negative thing I have to say is Dustin Hoffman. He’s completely miscast and ruins Joan’s trial at the end.<br /><br />Jovovich has been in some really mediocre films. It’s good to see her in one where she can really shine.

Attempts to be dramatic ruined this movie
The attempts at drama destroyed this film. Bruce Willis is on the trail of the person that killed his friend in this psychological thriller. There are some elements that are really good like the people that are in the group session with Willis. Then they try to be overly dramatic like when Willis hooks up with Jane March and it just goes downhill. They play soaring soap opera music that just ruins everything. The end does the same thing. This could’ve been good but those moments are so over the top.

1 of the best docs ever made! Shows how black atheletes are used by the basketball industry
What happens to kids who base their whole lives around basketball? That was what the documentary Hoop Dreams tried to answer. It followed two kids from Chicago, William Gates and Arthur Agee. The movie started when they were 14 and entering high school. The two took divergent paths mostly due to one being highly recruited by schools. It shows how kids’ dreams meet the reality of how basketball is run like a business in America.<br /><br />William and Arthur had similar backgrounds. William’s dad left him when he was a kid. His older brother put all of his unfulfilled basketball dreams into him. He ended up having a baby when he was in high school and his girlfriend moved in with his family. He lived in the Cabrini Green housing projects. Arthur lived in Garfield Park with his parents. His dad was abusive, left the family, became a drug addict, was incarcerated and then tried to rejoin the family. His mom struggled with work due to a back problem and they ended up on welfare. His friend who was also having family problems moved in with them along with his sister who just had a baby. For both of them their main priority was basketball. They both believed that they could go to the NBA and this was supported by their family.<br /><br />Their time in high school showed how many athletes, especially African American ones are treated. First, they both went to a private Catholic School St. Joseph out in the suburbs. It took Arthur 4 hours every day to get there. It was the first time they’d been to the suburbs and gone to school with whites. They were both academically behind because when they were in middle school they only cared about basketball and their schools were bad. They were both at a 4th grade level. William got serious about his academics and made the honor roll. Arthur was more immature and didn’t care. More importantly William was considered a young star, got extra help, got financial aid and a benefactor to pay his four years through high school. His last two years were marred by a knee injury. Arthur on the other hand was kicked out the start of his sophomore year because he wasn’t as good of a player and the school didn’t support him as a result. In fact, they withheld his grades until his family paid the tuition they owed. That led Arthur to go to Marshall High School in Chicago where he continued to struggle academically because he only cared about basketball. His team went to the state championship his senior year however. They both represented how the basketball business works in America. Kids are recruited in elementary school to go to certain high schools to help out their programs. Many of these are private schools and mostly white which represents a total culture shock for black players. They have to adapt. More importantly if they don’t work out as players they can be dropped like what happened to Arthur. If they turn out to be good the process continues when colleges come to recruit them when again it’s all about helping out the school’s program and making them money for them.<br /><br />Finally the movie finishes with how the two kids feel when they’re done with high school. William felt like basketball was not as important to him as it once was. He still played in college, but he wanted to get an education and take care of his family. He had a great quote where people told him when he goes to college to not forget about him. He replied that if he didn’t make it in basketball would they remember him. Arthur’s life was still dominated by basketball. He went to a junior college in the middle of nowhere with only 7 black students, 6 of which were basketball players. He still thought he could make the NBA.<br /><br />This is one of the best documentaries I’ve ever seen. I saw it twice when it came out in movie theaters. William and Arthur are engaging and their stories reveal a lot about basketball in the United States.<br />C

2nd Chucky film where they make fun of the franchise
By the time of Seed of Chucky the franchise was no longer taking itself seriously. It was going for the laughs. It threw in all kinds of bits making fun of itself as a result. For instance there was a Chucky and Tiffany film being made full of cursing. Jennifer Tilly appeared as herself and was trying to get into a film being made by Redman playing himself about the Virgin Mary of all things. There’s more goofiness and of course some murders along the way.<br /><br />The Chucky series had gone as about as far as it could trying to be a serious horror series. This turn towards comedy, which started with Bridge of Chucky and continued with Seed of Chucky while maintaining some of the slasher elements of the original was a nice turn of events. It doesn’t seem like it would work, but it does. Tilly especially shines as the fading movie star.

Ned Kelly was one of several films about the famous Australian outlaw. This one pits him as a victim of crooked policemen which made him into a Robin Hood type figure.

Heath Ledger as Kelly and Orlando Bloom as his sidekick Joe Byrne make dashing anti-heroes and Bloom especially is a ladies’ man. Watching them in action is the main draw of the film.

A story of Chinese nationalism and revenge
This movie reminds me so much of the Shaw Brothers company in terms of production value and imagery. The opening for example has two fighters going through moves in front of an all white set. This is a classic Shaw Brothers’ technique. That’s a great start to this action film about the hated Manchus hunting for a famous martial arts book. It spends plenty of time stoking Chinese nationalism. Mixed in with that is some good old revenge. The fight scenes are well choreographed. My only complaint is that the picture quality isn’t the best.

Screw the Tarantino worship the stories by the actors & the nostalgia of the scenes is the draw
Obviously QT8 is going to be nothing but praise for the genius of Quentin Tarantino. That’s not the draw because that’s boring. What’s good about watching QT8 is the stories from the actors that were involved in Quentin Tarantino’s films. They talk about the suits used in Reservoir Dogs, Michael Madsen’s dance in that film, etc. You get little trivia about connections between the different films like referencing Alabama from True Romance in Reservoir Dogs. I also liked that it included Harvey Weinstein and his abuses because he and Tarantino had a long relationship and Weinstein attacked several women in Tarantino’s films. At the same time it lets Tarantino off the hook because he only broke with Weinstein when he was publicly exposed and by his own admission Tarantino knew about some of the incidents and didn’t do anything about it. Overall I enjoyed this overview because of the scenes that brought back memories and the interviews of the actors.

Not As Good As The Original
I really enjoyed the original Murder On The Orient Express because it wasn't your usual murder mystery. Instead it was about justice. This remake stuck to the story but didn't pull it off half as well.<br /><br />First Kenneth Branagh portrays Hercule Poirot as if he was Sherlock Holmes. He sees a little clue about someone and is able to figure out their entire lives via deduction. That made him derivative of the British detective instead of being an Agatha Christie original character.<br /><br />More importantly the plot just didn't portray the same sense of wrong that had been done that led to a murder. You didn't feel the anger and grief and that made the whole movie fall apart in the end.

Jason Sudeikis is the comedy engine that drives the film
We’re The Millers is a travel comedy where Jason Sudeikis leads a fake family made up of his neighbor Jennifer Aniston, a kid that lives in his building Will Poulter and a homeless girl Emma Roberts to Mexico to get some drugs. Sudeikis is the comedy engine that makes the film go. He’s got some great sarcastic lines. One thing that I found annoying was Aniston’s character who was a stripper. It seems like she wanted these risque roles after playing on Friends forever, but it didn’t work. They should have given her another persona.

The children are the future and Rock n Roll can change their lives
School of Rock was a family comedy featuring Jack Black as Dewey a washed up Rock guitarist who out of desperation poses as his roommate and becomes a substitute teacher at a prestigious private school. There he decides to manipulate his students into forming a rock band to compete at the annual battle of the bands, but then he comes to appreciate each student for their talents and who they are. This film easily appeals to both adults and children with the music and jokes.<br /><br />When Dewey sees his students in music class, he decides that he’ll make them into a rock band. Unknowingly he discovers each one of his students is talented. He finds a guitarist, a bassist, a drummer, but he even gives parts to the non-musicians such as band manager, stylist, roadies, etc. At first, this is all for his own selfish needs to play in the battle of the bands, but as time goes by he comes to see how special each one of his students is. Not only that he but teaches them about Rock history, sticking it to the Man, and other topics popular in Rock culture trying to forge a group of individuals who won’t do what society tells them to. Not only that he gets the kids to believe that music can change the world. Some of them become more confident as a result. Together they make some great music. A lot of great fun is had in the process.<br />C

Role of defense attorneys is to provide best case and not care whether client is guilty or not
Primal Fear is about the role of defense attorneys. At the start of the film Richard Gere is giving a monologue to a reporter about how everyone accused of crimes has the right the best defense possible. That was his job and he didn’t care whether people were guilty or not. He then becomes the lawyer for Edward Norton who is accused of a heinous murder of Chicago’s archbishop. I enjoyed how it went through different defenses Gere through out there to try to get his client off. It’s always nice to see Andre Braugher who played Gere’s investigator. There were twists and turns as usual and I liked the ending. Overall it was a pretty good legal drama.

Love story ruined everything
This was a huge multi-million dollar production like they don’t make anymore. It’s a ridiculous story about a group of Mayans who flee Mexico and end up in Texas or something and run into Native Americans led by Yul Brynner. In true Hollywood fashion they only have one Latino actor, George Chakiris amongst the Mayans. I wanted to watch it for the spectacle of it all. It provided that at first but then it became a melodrama as Brynner falls in love with Shirley Anne Field and it all went downhill from there. It’s not until the very end that it redeems itself with an over the top battle scene. Overall I was disappointed with Kings of the Sun. The love story just ruined everything.

Remake fizzles with predictable story
This was a re-make of John Carpenters original 1976 film. It stuck to the original premise. Precinct 13 was being closed down when a major criminal Marion Bishop (Laurence Fishburne) was brought there. Then a large gang of gunmen surround the building and demand Bishop be turned over. The only people to defend the precinct are Sergeant Jack Roenick (Ethan Hawke), Officer Jasper O’Shea (Brian Dennehy) secretary Iris Ferry (Drea de Matteo), two sheriffs Deputy Gil (Dorian Harewood) and Deputy Rosen (Kim Coates), and three other criminals Smiley (Ja Rule), Beck (John Leguizamo), and Anna (Aisha Hinds). No screenwriter wants to keep things the same though so the people attacking the precinct are different in this version.<br /><br />The problem with the movie is that once the siege starts the story basically goes nowhere. You know the bad guys are going to make various attempts to get in, the good guys are going to try to hold them off and then try to get out. There’s just not enough going on to keep the viewer interested.<br />C

Spoor of a crime drama Paul Bettany actually shines the brightest of the cast
Mortdecai is a spoof crime drama. It features Johnny Depp as the English lord Charlie Mortdecai, Gwyneth Paltrow as his wife Johanna Mortdecai, Paul Bettany as Charlie’s man servant Jock Strapp, and Ewan McGregor as British Inspector Alistari Martland. They are all looking for a stolen painting by Francisco Goya.<br /><br />Depp plays a bumbling idiot akin to Inspector Clouseau. The other standout role is played by Bettany who is like a working class James Bond that can take on all comers and who is also a ladies man. Bettany actually gets almost as many laughs as Depp does. They have the two run into all kinds of ridiculous situations like Mortdecai cutting off half the mustache of an attacker to two Chinese gangsters debating how to cut off Bettany’s finger.<br /><br />It’s all a bit of mindless fun.<br />C

How food can bring people together
It’s the 1950s and two broke immigrant brothers Stanley Tucci and Tony Shalhoub run a struggling Italian restaurant. Shalhoub is the chef and will only make authentic Italian cuisine while the customers want Italian-American dishes like spaghetti and meatballs. They have a big night when Jazz performer Louis Prima is coming to dinner who could make their place famous. Tucci and Shalhoub are great together because all they do is argue about the food and business. There’s one scene however before the dinner begins when both brothers are in the kitchen preparing the meal and not a word is said. It’s a moment of bliss symbolizing how food can bring people together. That’s brought forth again when the big dinner is finally served. They show the name of each dish and then serve it. The food looks beautiful and shows that Italian food isn’t just Italian-American where almost everything comes in red tomato sauce.

Creates good mood surrounding weird little kid with a dark secret
Antlers is about a mythical Native American monster in Oregon. A little kid Jeremy Thomas knows about the beast and his teacher Keri Russell discovers it through him. I thought the movie did a good job setting the mood rather than being scary. That was thanks to Thomas who plays a small weird kid that looks abused, collects roadkill and has a dark secret at home. That was by far the best part of the movie. The ending had a Sigourney Weaver vs Alien feel to it. This turned out better than I thought it would be.

Wahlberg is up against the odds in this political thriller
Mark Wahlberg is an elite sniper who was betrayed by his government. When Danny Glover shows up saying he needs Wahlberg’s help it’s more of the same. The story has a man up against the odds theme. Michael Pena becomes Wahlberg’s sidekick which is good because I’ve always liked him. Of course there’s action where Wahlberg gets to show off his military/sniper skills. It’s a good mix of a political thriller and Wahlberg being a bad man you don’t want to cross.

Emotional ups and downs of a 12 yr old girl
Ever wonder how kids become moody? Well Pixar’s Inside Out gives you a perspective on this common occurrence. The story is about the emotions of a 12 year told girl named Riley, namely joy, sadness, anger, fear and disgust. They all compete for control of Riley’s reactions to her day to day activities from going to school to her parents small talking with her during dinner. Of course something goes wrong when joy and sadness disappear which is the dilemma of the story. Like all Pixar movies the story is funny and heart-warming at the same time. Phyllis Smith as sadness is great always complaining and putting a downer on everything. The movie brings a whole new perspective to the typical coming of age story by focusing upon feelings and memories. There’s a message at the end as well about how important the different emotions are and how all experiences go towards shaping people and their personalities.

A celebration of youth in the 60s but the story lets it down in the end
Band of Outsiders was a 1964 film by Jean Luc Godard. Like his earlier film Breathless it glorifies the new youth culture of the 1960s.<br /><br />The film has two distinct parts. First, it starts as a love triangle as two boys Franz and Arthur are both after the same girl Odile. Those same three characters are also involved in a robbery after Oldie tells the two boys about a bunch of cash in a house she lives in.<br /><br />More than just a heist film, it was also a celebration of the 1960s. Besides the flirting between the three characters, Franz has a convertible sports care that he likes racing around. Odile while talking to her aunt acts rebellious by rejecting everything she says. Her aunt tells her she doesn’t want her niece going to the movies to which she says she hates the movies. Then she says she doesn’t want Odile going to the theater, to which she says she hates the theater, etc. They run through the Louvre making a racket right past a security guard. There’s also a famous dance scene of the three in a café to a swinging R’n’B instrumental. These were all expressions of the youth culture that was formed in the 1960s. It was a one of free expression, and a rejection of their parents’ generation. That was all well expressed in Band of Ousiders and other films by Godard, which was part of the French New Wave. As the title suggests, that was a movement in France that rejected the old, and experimented with new styles in cinema.<br /><br />Given all that it’s surprising the ending Godard chose which highlights the contradictions between the old and young.<br /><br />In the end, Band of Outsiders is a very good representation of its times. The problem is the story is not strong enough to carry through to the end. There wasn’t the right balance between the love triangle and the robbery and the story kind of wanders in the middle as a result.<br />C

Great mix of monsters and heroes in this fight against Dracula
I always thought this was a greatly underappreciated horror movie. First off it’s rated PG-13 so there couldn’t be too much horror. It makes up for that with some great storytelling and mixing of tales.<br /><br />Hugh Jackman plays the famous vampire hunter Gabriel Van Helsing. The twist is that he is not alone, but actually works for the Vatican taking care of paranormal threats to the church. He is sent to Romania to help Anna Valerious played by Kate Beckinsale fight Dracula played by Richard Roxburgh. Dracula financed Doctor Victory Frankenstein played by Samuel West hoping that his creation the Frankenstein monster played by Shuler Hensley could help with birthing new vampires. Dracula also employs werewolves as his henchmen.<br /><br />Weaving all these monsters into one story is a real treat. The action is also good. For instance when Van Helsing first arrives in Romania to meet Valerious there’s a great fight scene with three female vampires who he attempts to ward off with an automatic crossbow. The production was also firs rate. Multiple sites and some great sets were created such as a windmill burning down with the Frankenstein monster in it at the start.<br /><br />Overall highly recommended movie with a new take on these historic horror characters.

Desparate situations lead 4 African American women into a life of crime
Set It Off is a heist film with a twist which is that involves a group of African American women. The movie begins with Frankie (Vivica A. Fox) losing her job at a bank after it’s robbed because the police suspect her as an accomplice because she knew one of the perpetrators. Stony (Jada Pinkett) has her brother killed by the police when he reached for a bottle. T.T. (Kimberly Elise) has her baby taken away by Child Protective Services after he gets into an accident at her work. The fourth member of the crew is Cleo (Queen Latifah). Given their recent problems they’re motivated to try to make some quick money by becoming bank robbers.<br /><br />The movie does a good job laying out the women’s troubles and how that leads them to crime. The robberies are good. There’s also the alternative story of Stony dating a banker named Keith Weston (Blair Underwood) that showed what could have been if she didn’t choose a life of crime.<br /><br />All together it’s a very good heist story by a group of desperate women. Having women being the leads was important enough as crime dramas are dominated by men. Having them be black women made this story stand out even more.

An odd couple film that leads to the bloody dictatorship of Idi Amin in Uganda
You wouldn’t think it but The Last King of Scotland is an odd couple buddy film that goes completely wrong. The story is based upon the bloody dictatorship of Idi Amin played by Forest Whitaker in Uganda in the 1970s. James McAvoy plays Nicholas Garrigan a young doctor who decides he wants to see the world and randomly decides to travel to Uganda. Through a series of unexpected events he becomes the doctor to Amin and his chief advisor. The movie then shifts to showing how insane Uganda became at the time as Amin slaughtered all his opposition.<br /><br />The story begins with the odd couple theme of Garrigan being the innocent and Amin being the people’s president of Uganda. Whitaker plays a charming dictator while McAvoy is just taken in by everything he sees. Whitaker then flips the script and becomes a mad man. He portrays Amin as someone with a bipolar personality at one moment happy and then the next raging at someone threatening to kill them. The horrors of the Amin government are also portrayed in some powerful scenes.<br /><br />An added bonus the film has a fantastic soundtrack made up of African soul and funk tunes. They’re played both in the background and by bands in clubs.<br /><br />The Last King of Scotland works on two levels. First is Garrigan’s adventure into Uganda and his relationship with Amin. Second is a glimpse into Amin’s rule.<br />C

Never expected Knightley to play a bounty hunter but she pulls it off
Keira Knightley is a bounty hunter working with Mickey Rourke and Edgar Ramirez in this feature by Tony Scott. You can immediately tell this is a Scott film from the voice over commentary by Knightley, the dark hues, and more. The film uses a series of flashbacks to explain how Knightley ended up being a bounty hunter and then how her ego let her down. The story starts off small and then builds up into a huge crime which Knightley and company are caught in the middle of. There’s even some comedic moments thrown in such as when Mo’Nique goes on the Jerry Springer Show. Other times it goes a little too over the top but then rights itself.<br /><br />I never saw Knightley doing this kind of role but she does it well. She’s both tough and sexy. Rourke has some funny lines and Ramirez plays the moody guy. The film also has a good supporting cast including Christopher Walken, Delroy Lindo, Mo’Nique, Lucy Liu, Jacqueline Bisset plus Ian Ziering and Brian Green from Beverly Hills 90210.

White people can be drug dealers too
White Boy Rick was based upon a true story of Rick (Richard Merritt) who began selling guns and hanging out with gangsters in east Detroit in the 1980s, and eventually became a drug dealer. The story is a traditional rags to riches one about a gangster with the twist that Rick is white.<br /><br />Rick’s dad played by Matthew McConaughey stands out. He’s a hustler selling guns both legally and illegally. It’s no wonder that Rick got the idea that doing crime wasn’t a bad thing.<br /><br />Despite the traditional story arch White Boy Rick is still engaging and interesting to watch. It emphasizes the theme that poverty is the leading cause of crime in America.<br />C

Impressed by Dean Martin's role
Mr. Ricco is an urban crime drama featuring Dean Martin as a San Francisco defense attorney caught in the middle of a cop killing case with a black militant he helped get off as the main suspect. I’m used to seeing Martin in comedies or with the Rat Pack. He impressed me with this role. They throw him into all kinds of situations from being shot to beat up to even a car chase. It also throws in black revolutionaries and corrupt cops to round things off. Overall it’s entertaining.

The Musketeers fight tyranny
Fighting tyranny is the theme of The Main In The Iron Mask. The story is based around an older Four Musketeers consisting of John Malkovich as Athos, Jeremy Irons as Aramis, Gabrield Byrne as D’Artagnan and Gerard Depardieu as Porthos. They plot against the king Leonardo DiCaprio believing he’s unfit to rule. The movie has a good mix of intrigue with some jokes thrown in and then swordplay. The one drawback is that it added special effects to the first couple action scenes and ruined them as a result. Out of the Musketeers Depardieu walks away with it. He’s the jokester who loves women.
