Unintended consequences of the media
Absence of Malice is about how journalism can affect regular people. Sally Fields writes a story about Paul Newman that involves the police and the mafia. Fields does a masterful job with her role. She’s a smart, intelligent and independent woman. There are plenty of scenes for example where she maneuvers around men who just want to ask her out. Newman is great as well. He’s angered by the story about him and asks what happens if he’s never done anything wrong, will the paper print that or will his name forever be tarnished? He’s very smart as well and sees through Fields when she tries to play him for information. He also becomes a conscience for Fields telling her she needed to think about what she could do to people with her writing instead of just thinking about the story. There are other people that get caught up in Fields’ story and are impacted as well. This is where the title comes from. Absence of malice means that the media puts out stories without evil intent, but in this case it has wide ranging repercussions.

Couldn't fulfill promise of the story
Alphabet City is about a drug dealer Vincent Spano who wants to take care of his family and get out of the game. The story would go from scene to scene showing the people he cared about and then the trouble he was in. The problem was it kind of meandered. More importantly it didn’t maintain the tension. Then the ending is a bit hokey as well. Basically they had a good idea here but it was never fulfilled.

Thought it was pretty average dystopian tale
This was my first time watching The Hunger Games and I have to say I didn’t see what the hype was about. The story takes place in a dystopian future where young people from different districts are randomly chosen to kill each other in a tournament. The story just didn’t wow me. The clothes of the rich looked ridiculous. There were all kinds of turns in the movie like a love story that I did not believe at all. That didn’t make The Hunger Games a bad film but I wouldn’t watch it again.

Ali as a man and a father not just a fighter
I Am Ali is a unique look at Muhammad Ali because it includes phone conversations that the champ recorded himself mixed in with archival footage and the more traditional talking heads. I have to say I eat up anything about Ali. He was a childhood hero and one of the greatest people ever who was so much more than a boxer. This was an excellent documentary about him.<br /><br />Most of the conservations used are Ali talking to his kids. It gives another perspective on his life. The film goes through events in chronological order and then flashes to moments with his children and then back. There are some really emotional eents provided which makes this one of the best films about Ali. It really gives a full picture of him as a man not just a fighter.

One of Eddie Murphy's most memorable roles
In Coming To America Eddie Murphy played a few side roles. In Nutty Professor he went all in starting off with portraying Richard Simmons. He then plays Professor Clump and his entire family of five other characters. The film itself is a remake of the Jerry Lewis comedy where Clump who is overweight discovers a serum that makes him skinny. That changes his entire personality.<br /><br />There are plenty of memorable parts from Murphy thinking he’s King Kong to getting into it with a very young Dave Chappelle at a comedy club to having to taking Jada Pinkett Smith to dinner where his family starts talking about having relations with women. It’s really one of Murphy’s most memorable roles.

Some good exploitation that doesn't take itself seriouisly
In the 2000s they revived the Piranha franchise and it turned out to be a pretty enjoyable exploitation series. This one had a surprising start with Richard Dreyfuss. You wouldn’t expect an A-lister like him to appear in a flick like this, but it was probably because of his association with Jaws. After that the story sticks to the basics: young people, pretty women, nudity, lots of people being eaten and blood. The movie creates some good images such as Ving Rhames taking a boat propeller and using it to kill Piranha or a half-eaten Jerry O’Connell. It also doesn’t take itself seriously which is a huge plus.

Great ending that ties everything together and finishes with a bang
General Chow (John Liu) is blamed for the murder of a high government official who was in charge of security for the king. The problem is he didn’t do it. He has to hunt down the real killer Hu Lung (Hoi Sang Lee) before the authorities catch him and execute him. The story seems like it goes all over the place but it actually ties everything together at the end. Wasn’t expecting that so it was a nice surprise. The climax fight by the way is by far the best part with some added graphics involving some eggs to highlight the combat.

Bit cliche with teens stuck on a bus but overall still entertaining
Jeepers Creepers 2 had a lot to live up to because the first movie in the series was great. Unfortunately it fell for some common horror tropes like a bunch of teenagers acting stupid. That being said, it was still highly enjoyable.<br /><br />The Jeepers Creepers lore says every 23 years the beast returns to feed on people. A high school sports team happened to be on the road on that very day that it came back. Here is where the clichés come in with teens being hunted. At the same time the movie had some of its own flare such as when the beast climbs on the sides of the bus and smells out the kids and even winks at them. Even better is when the beast licks the bus windows.<br /><br />While not as good as the original it was still pretty damn entertaining.<br />C

Needed more Pumpkinhead!
Pumpkinhead follows a familiar trope in horror of city kids going out to the country and finding more than they asked for. That comes in the form of Pumpkinhead which is let lose to avenge Lance Henriksen. The monster has a nice alien look about it. The problem is it only makes limited appearances. That makes Pumpkinhead not the first or even second monster movie I would think of watching but if it were on TV it’s not bad.

Juvenile/prison system wasnt working so tried football to redeem kids
Gridiron Gang featuring Dwayne Johnson as Sean Porter is a heart-warming tale of redemption based upon a true story. It’s set in a Youth Authority camp in southern California called Camp Kilpatrick. Porter decides the way to reform his wards is to get them to bond together and find self-worth via playing football. No one believes in Porter or his plan, especially when he asks other schools to play his kids.<br /><br />The kinds of kids Porter is dealing with is portrayed in the opening scene when one gets up in the middle of the night to assault another and gets put into solitary. Still, Porter believes in these kids and understands the environment they grow up in doesn’t offer many alternatives, or role models, or jobs, etc. for them to find a way out of a life of incarceration or worse, getting killed. The youth authority and the adult prison system doesn't work either. That’s until he has the revelation that football might give them a chance while they’re at his camp. He has to convince the administration first, and then the kids, and then other school to make this dream work. Not everyone makes it in Porter’s program, but the ones that do gain something from it. They have to go through a lot of hard knocks before they get there however. That leads to some exciting football footage as well. That’s why the Gridiron Gang is a worthwhile experience.<br />C

Not really about the Black Dahlia and completely boring on top of that
The Black Dahlia case was one of the most gruesome and legendary unsolved mysteries in Los Angeles history. You would think that story along with director Brian de Palma would lead to something substantial. You would be mistaken. The movie isn’t really about that murder. It’s about police officer Josh Hartnett and the love triangle he finds himself in with his partner Aaron Eckhart and Scarlett Johansson. Not only that but not enough happens to keep even that plot interesting. De Palma tries to give the movie a neo-Noir feel with Hartnett giving a voice over and filming everything with a dark hue but that can’t save it. I would recommend people avoid this to save themselves 2 hours of their life.

A great lesson in black history that some people are trying to ban
This movie is based upon a famous book that I’ve known about for years but never read. The story follows Cicely Tyson as Pittman from slavery days up to the Civil Rights Movement. Most of the film focuses upon the Reconstruction era after slavery. Tyson goes through sharecropping where the former slave owners tied their former slaves to the land by putting them into debt. Tyson’s son preaches for blacks to act like American citizens and pays the price. That’s mirrored by the Civil Rights Movement where black people are being beaten and killed for again demanding to be treated as Americans. The film captures the trials and tribulations black people have gone through living in this country and is a great history lesson. It’s even more important today with some people trying to ban these stories in schools.

High schoolers have a party that turns into a riot Even includes a supervillain
Project X was your typical teen movie. Thomas (Thomas Kub) is having his birthday and his best friend Costa (Oliver Cooper) wants to give him a great party. The film used the hand held style as it was supposed to be Thomas’ friends making a video of their day and the party.<br /><br />Everything is play it by the numbers at first. They invite everyone they can especially girls. They get drugs. They have someone get alcohol for them. People get naked. Then things go into overdrive. It becomes like the biggest college party ever. A supervillain shows up and literally sets things on fire.<br /><br />If you can’t tell by now this movie is aimed at people in college and high school and anyone older than that will likely not be interested.<br />C

By far the best puppet production by the Andersons
The husband and wife duo of Sylvia and Gerry Anderson worked on various TV shows from the 1950s-70s. One of their best original productions was Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons. I used to love watching this show as a kid because of its action, special effects, and cool cars, planes, etc.<br /><br />Captain Scarlet featured puppets as the main characters, something the Andersons had been working on in the 1960s. Their previous shows Stingray and the Thunderbirds were similar but featured massive heads on their dolls that always looked a bit ridiculous, but when you were a kid watching them they were fine. Captain Scarlet was when they put everything together with realistic puppets, more gadgets and special vehicles, which were used to defend the planet from the Mysterons from outer space. Some Earthlings actually destroyed the Mysterons’ home on Mars, and sought revenge. They took over Captain Scarlet, but he survived and became indestructible. He became the main defender of Earth along with Spectrum a planetary defense force. Each episode would have the Mysteron’s agent Captain Black, a former member of Spectrum who was successfully possessed by the aliens launching some new plot to get revenge upon the Earthlings. This was a great bit of sci-fi action that’s still fun today.

Aliented youth
This movie has got a little bit of everything for a teen movie. Lust, sex, stalking, dysfunctional parents, and more. I was worried that it would be too stereotypical, and yes it does include that as it’s almost impossible to Hollywood to avoid those when dealing with teens, but overall the story was engaging. It was basically a commentary upon alienated kids. Monica Keena plays the typical popular girl but has a real sense of longing to her part. Jeffrey Wright even shows up as a hapless boyfriend.

The wonder and possibiities of science
Jody Foster always marveled over communication and became a scientist hoping to hear something from outer space. SPOILER ALERT: She does, hence the title. The movie sets a good mood starting with Foster as a child working a short wave radio trying to see how far she could get in touch with people. Foster plays a very impassioned character who embodies the sense of wonder that science provides. It compares her to the government who see science as a possible threat. Religion is also brought up such as with Matthew McConaughey who is a former minister who believes science can’t operate without belief. It’s a sci-fi movie that puts the emphasis upon science and faith.

Ups & downs of A Tribe Called Quest but most importantly how they kept the spirit going
Beats, Rhymes & Life was made by actor Michael Rapaport who is a lifelong Hip Hop fan. This documentary was made just as it seemed like A Tribe Called Quest was coming apart, again, after a re-union. The film emphasizes how the members of the group knew each other for so long, what drew them together, how things fell apart, but most importantly why they kept the spirit going.<br /><br />The documentary emphasizes the up and down relationship between Phife and Q-Tip that would lead to the break-ups. It also goes into how Tribe forged their style and found like minded people that formed the Natives Tongues. It also includes more about the band’s lives like Phife’s love of sports and his struggle with diabetes.<br /><br />As a huge Tribe fan I can say this documentary was very fulfilling. It brought back memories, it revealed issues I didn’t know about like how bad Phife’s health got, etc.

Mixed start but wow what an ending
The Brood is a very mixed movie. It begins with Oliver Reed conducting an experimental form of psychoanalysis on people but then turns into little deformed kids killing people associated with one of Reed’s patients Samantha Eggar. The psychiatric sessions are slow and boring. The evil kids on the other hand are what makes you want to watch. The play between those two parts is very uneven during the first half of the film. The ending is completely wild however making this a one of a kind horror film.

Has laughs and blood and guts
The Foo Fighters made this comedy-horror flick with Dave Grohl not only being the star but the writer as well. It plays upon the old trope of the Devil and Rock N Roll. The story revolves around the band going to a haunted house to record their new album.<br /><br />I liked the mix of jokes and horror. One time Grohl is playing the song Hello on the piano and Lionel Ritchie shows up and tells him to stop and get his own song. The blood and guts were great including an amazing scene involving a chain saw. There are a number of other noteworthy cameos as well by John Carpenter, Will Forte and Kerry King of Slayer.

A neo-Film Noir full of sex and murder and more sex
Sex and murder. That’s the basis of the classic Neo-Film Noir crime drama Basic Instinct. It’s infamous for the scene of Sharon Stone opening her legs during a police interrogation. That interrogation scene if full of talk about sex and murder and sets up Stone as a smoking Femme Fatale. Like the best of them she’s also very smart. The tension between her and Michael Douglas as a cop is palpable and they play at it until the very last scene.

It's like watching a crazy man do the same thing over and over
Sean Gullette believes there are patterns everywhere which can be discovered and comprehended using numbers. His belief in order in the world is contrasted with his disorderly appearance, anti-social behavior and a generally wrecked life. His hair goes in all different directions, he has visions that are like nightmares and he shuns humanity to doodle on numbers like a mad man. That’s actually what the movie is like, watching a crazy guy. Personally, I lost interest halfway through because the story didn’t seem like it was progressing. It’s just Gullette going on and on about numbers and mathematicians with momentary freakouts.

Presents Woodstock as the cultural event that it was that trescended the music
This is a PBS documentary about the famed Woodstock music festival. It takes a traditional approach but thankfully doesn’t have talking head after talking head. There was enough footage of the concert and the period that they showed pictures and news footage throughout while playing the interviews over them. That is a huge bonus for me because I hate talking heads. The film does a good job laying down the politics (Vietnam, political assassinations, etc) and the culture (the counter culture) to set the stage for Woodstock. Of course the best part is the performances. They only give short snippets of some of the acts but they’re all good. Overall it presents Woodstock as the cultural event that it was that transcended it just being a music concert.

Midnight Cowboy was one of the best pictures released in the 1960s. It features Jon Voight as Joe Buck a Texan who leaves his town for the big city of New York to be a gigolo. There he meets Ratso Rizzo (Dustin Hoffman) and they form a bond.<br /><br />Joe and Ratso come to rely upon each other so that they can survive in the city. One the one hand, the film shows the depths people will go to stay alive. They squat in an abandoned building. They hustle. They steal food. They try to sell sex. On the other hand they support and care about each other. Ratso for instance, gets sick and Joe is at his side trying to help him recover. They’re dreams are revealed as well such as when Ratso dreams of a life of luxury living in Florida. Joe’s motivation for going to New York are also revealed and it’s not a pretty story. It’s a remarkable world that the film creates.<br /><br />It’s two remarkable performances by Voight and Hoffman. It’s also a movie of its time. I don’t Hollywood would touch this story today. It casts such a bad image of New York City and some of the people in it that try to hustle and exploit others. It’s a one of a kind movie.<br />C

Devils can't break up a party like America couldn't break the will of black people
Don’t Play Us Cheap was a play made into a movie by Melvin Van Peebles. It’s about the perseverance of black people in America. A party is being put on when two devils show up trying to ruin things. One tries to break all the records and drink all the alcohol. Try as he might he fails to break their spirit which is an allegory of how America couldn’t break the soul of blacks. There are plenty of songs sung by the cast which are strong Gospel influenced Soul tunes. I liked the music and there wasn’t a bad one amongst them.

Story of self realization love and becoming a samurai in Mifune's most well known non-Kurosawa film
Musashi Miyamoto was one of the most famous swordsmen in ancient Japan. Not only that, but he was unique. He was not a famous shogun, warlord or general, but a common peasant who taught himself how to fight. This was a fictional three part movie series featuring Toshira Mifune as Musashi in one of his most well known non-Akira Kurusawa roles. The story is part self-realization, part love story with a woman named Otsu (Kaoru Yachigusa) who would follow Musashi throughout his life, and part samurai flick.<br /><br />The first film in the series covers Musashi’s start when he was like a wild animal. First he took part in the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600 hoping to become famous but he was on the losing side. He found himself alone afterward. His one friend abandoned him and his village rejected him. At one point he was even strung up on a tree. This is what made him like a beast. It wasn’t until he learned to control himself that he could become the warrior he always wanted to be. Kurosawa always complimented Mifune on his raw energy he conveyed with his acting so he played this part perfectly.<br /><br />To highlight the drama they introduced Otsu a woman from his village. The two fell in love but he chose becoming a samurai over her. She would be the main co-star throughout the trilogy.<br /><br />From there the following movies establish Musashi as a famous sword fighter. At the same time Otsu continues to follow him up and down Japan as he searches for the perfect fight. By the third film this started getting playedout however and too melodramatic. They introduce the famous two swords style of Musashi which was what he was known for. There’s also Sasaki Kojiro (Koji Tsuruta) who would lead to the greatest fight of Musashi’s career.<br /><br />Overall this is a fine movie series. Director Hiroshi Inagaki did an excellent job. There’s lots of bright colors and nature which was a big part of traditional Japanese film making. There’s enough sword fights to keep you interested, and it was only at the end that the drama got too much with Otsu.<br />C

Based on a novel that’s often called Japan’s Gone with the Wind, this sweeping saga fictionalizes the life of the legendary seventeenth-century swordsman (and writer and artist) Musashi Miyamoto, following him on his path from unruly youth to enlightened warrior. With these three films—1954’s Oscar-winning Musashi Miyamoto, 1955’s Duel at Ichijoji Temple, and 1956’s Duel at Ganryu Island—Inagaki created a passionate epic that’s equal parts tender love story and bloody action..

Robert Rodriguez creates his own 50s teen exploitation flick
I didn’t even know this was a Robert Rodriguez movie until it started. The film is full of 1950s Rock N Roll and bravado as David Arquette plays a bad boy. It’s like a modernization of a 50s teen exploitation film. Everything is exaggerated and larger than life like the amount of grease Arquette puts in his hair to a fight on a roller skating rink. It makes everything fun and there’s a constant Rock N Roll guitar line going on to drive events.

Might be Daniel Craig's best Bond film
Skyfall was part redemption, part changing of the guard, part biopic of James Bond.<br /><br />Like all Bond films there’s a dramatic intro with Bond (Daniel Craig) finding a shot agent and then chasing after his assassin. The best part is when Bond jumps into a train after tearing off its roof and the first thing he does is fix his cuff links. Unlike previous beginnings however this one ends with Bond being shot by his fellow agent Eve Moneypenny (Naomie Harris). That sets up the first half of the movie that focuses upon redemption. Bond has to make a comeback from not only being shot but losing his confidence as well.<br /><br />The second theme changing of the guard. Longtime MI6 boss M (Judi Dench) not only gets retired, but worse things are in store for her at the end. Dench had played this role since 1995’s Golden Eye featuring Pierce Brosnan as Bond. She was to be replaced by Ralph Fiennes as Gareth Mallory. There was a bit of nostalgia connected to that transition as well as Moneypenny went from a field agent to a secretary because of her shooting of Bond. Moneypenny was the iconic face that greeted Bond every time he walked in the office from the very first film Dr. No. having been played by Louis Maxwell for years. There was another new cast member as well. Ben Whishaw was introduced as Q, the technology and equipment specialist for MI6.<br /><br />The last part biopic comes at the very end. Bond and M retreat to Skyfall Bond’s old family estate. This brings up memories of his family and past. There’s more nostalgia as well as Bond drives his Aston Martin that was originally used in Goldfinger.<br /><br />Javier Bardem plays the villain and he’s outstanding. He gives a monologue to M about his bitterness and what he sacrificed for her that’s very memorable.<br /><br />Overall, Skyfall was one of Craig’s best Bond films.<br />C

A rare Kung Fu movie that spends more time on story than action
Unlike most Hong Kong martial arts films this one spends far more time on story than action. It starts off with a traditional plot about the Manchu Qing dynasty chasing after rebels and then goes to a bunch of young men training to be Shaolin monks. The two don’t meet until halfway through. The young men allow some comedy to be added as they act like delinquents always getting in trouble. Also for a Kung Fu movie there’s not much of it for the first hour. The last 30 minutes however is almost all action so that makes up for it.

One of the quintessential Film Noir's with an amazing ending
Kiss Me Deadly is one of the best Film Noirs ever. It was based upon a book of the same name by famed writer Mickey Spillane and featured Ralph Meeker as Mike Hammer.<br /><br />The beginning is very memorable as it features a woman named Christina played by Cloris Leachman running down a road with just a trench coat on and breathing heavily. It turns out she escaped from an asylum when Hammer almost hits her and ends up giving her a ride. A bunch of men are after her, and when they find her, they torture her. The director Aldrich just showed her dangling feet as she was screaming her head off, a very effective image to imply what was happening to her. The men finish by pushing Hammer and Christina off a cliff in Hammer’s car. Thus begins Kiss Me Deadly.<br /><br />It turns out that Christinia was caught up in something big and Hammer wants to find out what thinking that he can make a buck off of whatever he finds. It turns out the men that tried to get rid of him are after him as well providing another level of tension to the plot.<br /><br />Meeker did a magnificent job playing Hammer. He’s cool. He’s always got a suit on and drives a sports car. He has women throwing themselves at him. He can throw down when threatened. He just plays the quintessential tough guy.<br /><br />The ending is something special as well that’s unlike anything seen in film noir and many movies period.<br /><br />Added bonus, the thing Hammer finds at the end inspired Quentin Tarantino in Pulp Fiction with the suitcase John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson were told to recover.

This DVD edition of Kiss Me Deadly features the fully restored original endingwhich contains over one minute of crucial footage that clarifies decades of false interpretations. In order to illustrate the vastly different impressions left by each version, the altered/shortened ending has been included as well. When callous thugs beat Mike Hammer (Ralph Meeker) senseless and viciously murder the gorgeous blonde he's been trying to help, the hard-boiled detective retaliates theonly way he can: by hitting first and asking questions later. Cutting a brutal swath through the city's sleazy underside, Hammer uncovers a mysterious black container whose deadly contents not only solve the murder...but trigger an apocalyptic climax as well!.

A history of violence within the French mafia in Marseille
22 Bullets is about the history of violence within the French mafia in Marseille. The first thing that stands out is the editing as the story cuts back and forth between the past and present and different characters. Jean Reno is his usual excellent self as the lead. He’s a man with a conscience who retired from the mob but was brought back into it. There is plenty of gun play which ties into the theme of how murder and death are part of being in organized crime. Very well done mixing the story with the action.

Gripping court room drama where you want to see what happens next
If you want to watch a gripping court room drama than you should view Indictment The McMartin Trial. A preschool in Los Angeles was accused of hundreds of cases of child molestation which became a huge scandal and media circus. The movie focuses upon James Woods as the owners’ lawyer. Everyone when they hear about children being abused instantly have sympathy for the alleged victims and demonize the alleged culprits. The movie plays upon that but then as the case goes on for years and years it steadily goes through the evidence and it’s shocking what is revealed. Saying more would be a spoiler but it’s like a good mystery where you can’t wait to turn the page to find out what happens next.

Yung Henry Yu promises his dad he won’t fight again but then when some gangsters led by Fent Tien take his girl Pui-San Auyeung and he’s forced back into action.

3rd movie in series and still able to make fun of pop culture
The Scary Movie series was a very successful spoof of contemporary films. It started with just horror movies, but by this time they included all kinds of hits at the theaters from the sci-fi Signs to the Eminem film 8 Mile. Using a large ensemble cast they poked fun at contemporary pop culture.<br /><br />The opening is a perfect example with Jenny McCarthy and Pamela Anderson playing dumb blonds. They mention Anderson’s sex tape, get afraid of watching TV because they fear it effects silicon and will make their breast implants go down, a takeoff of The Ring movie occurs, and finally McCarthy has her head cut off and Anderson keeps on asking her if she’s okay.<br /><br />It’s surprising that they were able to keep up this consistency into the third film in the series but they did making it still a good watch.<br />C

Captures the power of the Who's music along with how completely childish they were
Kids Are Alright is collection of TV and concert appearances, studio recordings and interviews by the Who. The first song is My Generation when the band appeared on The Smuthers Brothers Comedy Hour. At the end of lip synching the tune the band smashes all of their equipment. There’s live clips as well where the group actually played such as a rousing take on Bab O’Riley. The movie really captures the power and catchiness of The Who’s music along with how completely childish and difficult they were. The last two points are shown in every interview included in the film where the band barely answers questions and goofs off constantly instead. Overall it’s a very nice collection.

Completely predictable but still worthwhile
The set up for this film is both believable and completely predictable as well. Gerard Butler is a cut throat executive who manipulates people but when his son gets sick he has to find his humanity again. How Butler acts is the believable part. What happens to him is predictable. You know exactly where things are going to go from his son to Butler’s business practices. Can it still keep you engaged? I think it did. It’s aimed at the heart which is also the reason why you can tell everything that will happen but sometimes that’s okay.

Black gangster's American Dream to be independent of the white mafia & corrupt cops
I have to admit, when I first saw American Gangster I was not that impressed. I thought it was a good but not great crime drama with Denzel Washington as Harlem gang boss Frank Lucas and Russell Crow as New Jersey Detective Richie Roberts. After multiple viewings however I have come to like the film more and more.<br /><br />Frank Lucas was a real person and the movie is loosely based upon his life. The movie covers both his and Robert’s lives parallel to each other. It is a police drama but with some twists. First, the cops weren’t all good, which was part of the struggle Roberts had investigating Lucas. Second, the movie is about Lucas’ chasing after the American Dream. Third, the story ends with the police but not in the way you would expect.<br /><br />There are three major stories in the film. First is Lucas’ rise. He started off being the lieutenant to Harlem boss Bumpy Johnson (Clarence Williams III). He dies right at the start of the film opening the way for Lucas. Johnson worked under the Italian mafia that controlled New York. Lucas’ plan was to become independent, and the way he would do that was going straight to South East Asia and buy heroin directly from the producer and smuggle it into the United States using American soldiers who were fighting the Vietnam War. That undermined the mafia’s source which was the famous French Connection where heroin went from Southeast Asia to Turkey, then to France, and finally to America. This was an example of Lucas’ brilliance and boldness. He wasn’t willing to work for whites anymore and be subservient to the mob. He was going to be his own boss and have his own real kingdom in Harlem.<br /><br />Roberts life is laid out at the same time. He was known to be a uncorrupt cop which brought the scorn of his peers. He was also struggling with his family and trying to get a law degree. Frank’s rise as a drug kingpin eventually drew his attention. He works the investigation starting from the bottom and working his way up trying to build a case that will bring down Lucas. This is a common trope in gangster films. The boss gets big, flaunts his wealth, which of course just marks his eventual fall.<br /><br />This leads to the third story. That involves New York Detective Nick Trupo (Josh Brolin). His unit stole drugs taken in busts and sold it to gangs while also collecting protection money from the criminals to run their drugs through New York City. Trupo tries to shake down Frank while getting in the way of Roberts’ work.<br /><br />All of these elements are what makes American Gangster not your typical good vs bad, rise and fall crime flick. Many of the cops were corrupt and on the take. Roberts and Lucas actually found a common cause at the end. It was also about a black man trying to find the American dream in a country where African Americans had very limited opportunities. Lucas’ path to fame and riches was through crime and he had the brains to make it big in his field. He brought his whole family up with him as well, of course that meant they joined his gang too. If people praise all the Italian mafia movies, they should praise this story as well because it showed blacks could be good criminals too.<br />C

Israeli agent tries to stop Palestinian terrorists from blowing up the Super Bowl
The 1970s was known for its disaster movies. You had the Towering Inferno about the tallest building in the world catching fire. You had the Poseidon Adventure about a luxury liner sinking. Black Sunday was part of that trend. It was based upon the Palestinian terrorist group Black September trying to blow up the Goodyear Blimp over the Super Bowl while an Israeli agent tries to stop them.<br /><br />The movie was based upon a book which is why it has an Israeli being the star even though the story is based within the United States. It’s funny because the Americans are literally in the background while the Israelis get free reign to do whatever they want.<br /><br />The movie starts as a good political thriller with its mix of intrigue and action. Then it gets to the Super Bowl and loses its way completely. There is scene after scene showing the game, then the Israeli running around and then back to the game. Nothing happens for literally 30 minutes before the terrorists try their attack. Editing was not a strong point of Black Sunday. If they’d cut that part down this would have been a much more satisfying film.<br />C

Snoop Dogg in the house in the Bay Area
What I’ve always liked about Snoop Dogg is his backing tracks. They mix strong beats with backing vocals and hooks. He first got that by working with Dr. Dre but his work afterward even added to that. Older songs like Nuthin But A G Thang and Gin and Juice sound like Parliament tunes while newer ones like Beautiful are more like Soul songs. This concert was filmed in San Francisco and Snoop brought out Short Dog to do Blow The Whistle. If you like Snoop you’ll like this show.

A story about family reconciliation
The Descendants is a melancholy tale of family reconciliation as George Clooney’s comatose wife is about to die. He has to raise his youngest daughter Amara Miller and make up with his estranged older one Shailene Woodley. He also has to deal with the problems he had with his wife.<br /><br />That doesn’t mean there aren’t a few moments of comedy thrown in there such as when his wife’s dad Robert Forster and later Clooney punches Woodley’s friend Nick Krause for saying inappropriate things. Krause actually turns out to be a good kid.<br /><br />It might seem that this film is completely depressing and it definitely has some low moments but in the end it’s all about family. The light elements really help and Clooney and Woodley provide two great performances.

Infamous Italian slasher with lots of graphic sex and violence
This Italian slasher movie had the weirdest premise. A serial killer talks like Donald Duck. It is hilarious and ridiculous at the same time with lots of graphic violence and sex to boot. Director Lucio Fulci went for pure exploitation by having a pervert woman get some sex scenes early on that had nothing to do with the killer. On the other hand he did some good misdirection thinking the case would go one way and then switching it up at the end. Fulci was well known for his horror movies and this is one of his most infamous.

No respect for the audience by simply remaking Star Wars A New Hope
When I saw this film in the theater I really liked it. It seemed like a good reboot to the Star Wars franchise. Unfortunately upon further viewing I have come to enjoy it less and less.<br /><br />The basic problem is that it is just the first Star War movie rehashed. Instead of the Empire the First Order is now the bad guy. Instead of the young and inexperienced Luke Skywalker there’s Rey played by Daisy Ridley. Instead of Darth Vader there is Kylo Ren in some horrible casting played by Adam Driver Vader’s grandson. Instead of the desert planet of Tatooine there’s the desert planet of Jakku. Instead of the movie starting with Princess Leia being captured by the bad guys but not before she puts some important information for the rebels inside a little robot that escapes, it’s pilot Poe Dameron played by Oscar Isaac that’s caught and puts data into his bot BB-8 that escapes. And of course the bot is found by the hero aka Skywalker who is Rey in this film, and the information leads to an old and wise Jedi Knight Obi Wan in the original and Skywalker in this version. Finally, what is a Star Wars flick without a Death Star, this time called Starkiller Base. That means you can guess how this ends. It’s like the writers and director had no respect for the audience at all, and didn’t want to spend the time coming up with an original story.<br /><br />The only really good new twist to the film was the arrival of Han Solo played by Harrison Ford and Chewbacca played by Peter Mayhew because they added some levity to the story. Otherwise just watch Star Wars A New Hope. It’s a far better movie.<br />C

Like a Thai exploitation flick with no story but a lot of fighting and gun play
Dan Chupong’s parents were killed and he wants revenge. Then he starts going on missions saving damsels in distress. To say the story is a mess is an understatement. One major problem is Chupong is an instant killer and fighter, which is completely unbelievable because before he was just working at his uncle’s garage. They show his brother training from watching videos. Is that how Chupong supposedly learned? What’s worse is some of the action sequences are over the top. It’s like a throwback to a 1970s exploitation flick where they have some guns, explosives and martial artists but don’t know what to do with them other than blow stuff up and have people fight.

Story of samurai having to get revenge to save face because the Shogunate was corrupt
Eleven Samurai is about two competing themes. On the one hand, the Oshi clan has been wronged by the Shogunate. Lord Nariatsu murdered their lord for no good reason and they ended up being punished since Nariatsu was a favorite of the retired Shogun they could not besmirch his name. Some lowly samurai of the Oshi decide to exact revenge to save face. On the other hand it is a critique of the samurai ethos. The samurai talked about their code and honor, but the Shogunate was corrupt and all about status and power rather than justice as shown by the fact that the Oshi were the ones held responsible for Nariatsu’s wrongdoing.<br /><br />The movie is actually a take-off of the famous and historical story of the 47 Ronin who were mistreated by the Shogunate as well and made an elaborate plan to kill their malefactor. Unlike that tale however Eleven Samurai is full of action. Director Eiichi Kudo also kept the plot fresh by constantly having the Oshi samurai’s plans being foiled leading them to get more and more frustrated.<br />C

A nobody turns into a one man wrecking crew with unintended consequences
This was a surprisingly good movie featuring Bob Odenkirk. His character starts off like a wall flower trying to avoid everything. That’s where the title comes from because he acts like a nobody. Then he gets set off by what? Some thieves taking his daughter’s kitty kat bracelet! He transforms into a one man wrecking crew. That leads to unintended consequences and a lot of fun. It’s got just the amount of dry humor added on top as well. Even a geriatric looking Christopher Lloyd gets in on the fun.

1 of the classic werewolf movies
TV newscaster Dee Wallace is haunted by the death of a man that was stalking her. It turns out that he was a werewolf. It’s the start of her troubles in this classic 1980s horror flick.<br /><br />It takes a while for a werewolf to be shown in full but when it does it’s well worth the wait. It’s one of the best manifestations of the monster put to film. There are two great transformations as well. The one drawback is the first time someone turns into a beast they just hint at what’s going on and then turn to animation. That’s a real let down.<br /><br />It also pays homage to the past with a scene from the original Wolfman and then a picture of Lon Chaney Jr. later on.<br /><br />Definitely one of the better takes on the franchise.

Blade Marvel's first black superhero put to film
Most people think the Black Panther was the first black Marvel superhero to hit the big screen. They would be wrong because that honor belongs to Blade which came out way before in 1998 starring Wesley Snipes. Blade was a very interesting character because he was what was called a day walker. He was half vampire half human allowing him to walk out in the sun but he still needed blood to live. The story pits him against Deacon Frost (Stephen Dorff) a youthful vampire who wanted to overthrow the established lords and create his own order. This superhero-horror story is about more than just good (Blade) vs bad (Frost). It also includes a rebellion within the vampire hierarchy as well as Blade dealing with his own demons being half vampire.<br /><br />Blade’s role as a hero and vampire killer is established at the start. An unsuspecting human is brought to a vampire rave to be the main event when Blade shows up and breaks up the party. They created a great outfit for Snipes as well with a long black leather jacket some body armor and a sword sticking out of the back. It really made his character.<br /><br />The film is more a horror flick than a superhoer one. At the rave blood comes out of the sprinkler system soaking everyone and turning them all red. Later one of Frost’s henchmen Quinn (Donal Logue) comes back to life on the autopsy table after Blade burned him alive and sinks his teeth into two doctors while looking like a burnt piece of bbq. The shading in the film is also very dark. Even when it’s sunny outside very few scenes have much light, which adds to the mood.<br /><br />All together this makes Blade a great film which shouldn’t be forgotten as part of the Marvel Hollywood legacy.<br />C

House Party was such a hit it became a franchise. House Party 2 was about Kid N Play going to college where they still had to deal with Tisha Campbell, but also academics and money.

Has a real charm and sense of innocence to it
Roman Holiday is called a classic romantic comedy and for good reason. It has a real charm and innocence to it. Audrey Hepburn is a princess from some European royal family who is stifled by tradition and protocol. She wants to live and finds that opportunity when she meets journalist Gregory Peck who wants to use her for a story but ends up falling for her. The two have a real chemistry for each other and the movie was made entirely in Rome using it as a great backdrop. One minute Hepburn and Peck are riding a scooter through the seats of the city the next they’re looking at the famous Coliseum. There are some really funny moments as well like when the two run into Eddie Albert and Peck drops drinks on him, kicks his leg and chair from out from under him to try to stop exposing him being a reporter. I really liked the ending as well because it’s not what you expect from a Hollywood release.

Made me appreciate Mifune even more
Toshiro Mifune has always caught my attention. I’ve loved his films but this biography was the first time I got to learn about the man himself. There are all kinds of interesting things like Mifune being born and raised in China to Akira Kurosawa not having insurance for the dramatic end of Throne of Blood when Mifune gets skewered by arrows. One person said Mifune acted like a wild animal. Another said he was boundless like the sea. He was definitely one of a kind and this documentary mad me appreciate him even more.

A classic that introduced a story and effects never seen before and questioned what is real
Inception was one of those movies that so blew your mind after watching it you had to see it again and again to try to figure it out. I saw it three times in a theater and many more times afterward. I’d been impressed with Christopher Nolan when I saw Memento in 2000 which has one of the most original scripts ever put to film, then with the Prestige in 2006 and the Dark Knight in 2008. Inception took his movie making to a new level. The movie is about questioning reality. If dreams are part of your subconscious and feel real who is to say they aren’t?<br /><br />The plot surrounds Leonardo DiCaprio as Cobb, a man that used military technology to delve into people’s brains using dreams to steal from them. He’s hired by Mr. Saito (Ken Watanabe) to do something different, in plant an idea into his rival’s mind, something called inception. The problem for Cobb is that he has a problem separating his dreams and past memories from reality. If someone is lost in a dream they may never come out and be lost in a place called limbo. Cobb takes an entire team into the mind of Saito’s rival a businessman named Fischer (Cilian Murphy) and there lies the dilemma. Will they be lost down there? Will Cobb’s own memories come in and trap them? This ties to the theme about what is reality. Cobb thinks his past is still alive by his own doing. Doesn’t that make them real?<br /><br />The story is part science fiction, part espionage, part personal exploration. Nothing like it had been seen before. The plot was thick and rich. The acting was amazing. The effects in the dream scape where landscapes could fold and bend were never seen before. The ending left everyone talking about exactly what it meant. In short, Inception became a classic and remains so to this day.<br />C

Some nice mindless fun
Piranha has a very simple plot. A town thought they’d wiped the voracious fish, but then they return to terrorize a bunch of young people.<br /><br />The movie doesn’t have a good start as it splashes a bunch of pretty nude women across the screen. That’s just all for titillation, excuse the pun.<br /><br />You watch movies like Piranha to see the animals attack humans and this has plenty of that. The best part is when the fish get into a water park and go wild. There are a bunch of surprises as well. There’s a sex scene involving a piranha that was pretty innovative for a gore film. David Hasselhoff also makes an appearance. The best part is that the movie did not take itself seriously which is always a plus for these types of releases.<br /><br />For some mindless fun you could do a lot worse.

Dunkirk evacuation saves what is otherwise a ho hum film
Dunkirk follows a British squad as it wanders the French countryside in 1940 eventually ending up at the evacuation at Dunkirk. Around that story are reporters, generals and of course the boat owners who document the collapse of the western front during the Nazi invasion of France. All those side stories means the movie is more of a drama than a war film. Therefore you get the speeches about not giving up, monologues about hating the war, complaints about why London wanted civilian boats, etc. with only a few action scenes. On the plus side they employed a huge amount of extras to give a realistic view of what the Dunkirk beach was like when all the troops were trying to get on boats to cross the English Channel. It actually did a much better job of that then Christopher Nolan’s more recent Dunkirk movie. The beach scenes are by far the best part and redeem what is a rather ho hum story before that.

You forget it's supposed to be a murder mystery because of all the interesting characters
John Cusack is a writer who goes to Savannah, Georgia and decides to write about a murder but it’s really about all the interesting characters he meets. That starts with Kevin Spacey who lives a lavish lifestyle with all kinds of eccentricities like a secret organ system built into the walls of his study or a man who has pet flies tied to his clothes and says on a bad day he will poison the entire city or a transvestite performer who speaks her mind.<br /><br />Just as interesting is the fact that this film was directed by Clint Eastwood. It’s unlike anything else he’s made. You can say he lost track of the murder mystery which was supposed to be the basis for the plot but I didn’t care. The people in Midnight In The Garden of Good And Even are so enthralling I just wanted to see more of them.

It's more of a teen drama than a ghost story and unsatisfactory on both counts
This movie starts off as a ghost story but then switches to the female students at a high school. It’s like a teen drama. The best part of that is how much of a jerk one of the teachers is to his students feeling up one’s neck and then yelling at others. It takes a while for things to get back on track to the haunting, a bit too much time for my liking. That constitutes the main problem with Whispering Corridors it takes too long to develop. I was just waiting for something, anything to happen and it really never paid off. I felt cheated in the end having wasted my time with the movie.

Magic monsters Depp are great but the main character still doesn't appeal to em
The Crimes Of Grindelwald was the movie that connected Fantastic Beasts more directly with the larger Harry Potter world. First there’s a young Dumbledore played by Jude Law. Hogwarts makes an appearance. Zoe Kravit also plays Leta Lestrange who is a relative of Helena Bonham Carter’s character Bellatrix Lestrange. I found The Crimes of Grindelwald entertaining just like the first Fantastic Beasts’ film. The magic and the monsters are all great. The main fault in the story is the main character played by Eddie Redmayne is just not appealing to me. He’s an introvert and doesn’t present a strong personality. Johnny Depp as the villain was much better as a master manipulator.

It's good but Griffin has done better
I’ve always been an Eddie Griffin fan and I’ve seen him live once in Vegas. The movie is a mix of his stand up and Griffin traveling around his hometown of Kansas City.<br /><br />Griffin’s show starts off political talking about the impact of 9/11 but then gets down to his usual things like his family. He talks about how his mother used to beat him for all kinds of things, but that saved him from prison.<br /><br />I have to say his set was good but he’s done better. There’s at least one other movie he’s got that’s way better than this one.

A street fighter who brought his fire for gay rights to political office
Milk starring Sean Penn is an important movie that covers not only the rise of San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk but the fight for gay rights. The film portrays Milk as someone drawn into politics by the discrimination he faced. That went from street activism to joining politics. It wasn’t a meteoric rise either. Milk went through a lot of setbacks. It’s his fire for his cause that is the main draw. That’s brought to life by Penn’s amazing performance. It really is one of his most memorable roles. He creates a fighter’s persona. There’s plenty of archival footage as well that brings a gravity to some of the events.

Entertaining way of explaining how banks caused the housing crisis & the 2008 Recession
The Big Short was based upon a book by Michael Lewis of the same name and co-written and directed by Adam McKay in his first serious venture. He’d done comedies with Will Ferrell before. The book and film were about the housing crisis that started the 2008 Great Recession.<br /><br />The cause was mortgage backed securities. That’s where bankers took people’s mortgages, bundled them together, and sold them to investors for billions of dollars. The problem started when banks began giving mortgages to people that should have never been given one because they could never afford a house. The pyramid eventually collapsed, and the whole world economy almost went with it.<br /><br />The Big Short doesn’t give you a dramatic recollection into this event. It doesn’t try to lecture the audience. Instead it takes a non-traditional approach.<br /><br />That starts with the main characters, many of which are very eccentric. For example, Christian Bale is Michael Burry a hedge fund manager who is idiosyncratic. He loves death metal, lost an eye, doesn’t wear shoes or sox in the office, and began investigating mortgages in 2005.<br /><br />McKay also played with the narrative. For instance, at the start Ryan Gosling as Jared Vennett talks right into the camera about how banking used to be a boring business of savings and bonds, but then became a huge multi-billion dollar boom when it got into selling off mortgages as bundles. Another time Margot Robbie is sitting in a bath and explains how Burry was betting against the home loan market and mortgage backed securities were garbage.<br /><br />Most people don’t want to read long articles about how the 2008 Recession happened so the Big Short provides an entertaining means to explain everything.<br />C

A fitting film for 2020 the year of Black Lives Matter
The Hate U Give starts off with the speech that almost every African American family gives their kids when they get older. That’s how to act around the police. This talk is given because the police will stop black people for doing nothing other than being black and they could be arrested or worse killed for just making the wrong move.<br /><br />The film features Amandla Stenberg as Starr. She lives a dual life. On the one hand she’s with her family. Her dad Maverick (Russell Hornsby) is a former gang member, now a corner store owner, and a promoter of black pride. Her mother is Lisa (Regina Hall), and she has two brothers. They live in a poor neighborhood. On the other her mother sent Starr and her brothers to a private school which is almost all white and middle to upper class so that they can go to college. There she has to act white to fit in. She’s split between her two worlds not feeling like she fully fits in with either.<br /><br />The movie was based off of a book by the same name, which was inspired by the real life death of Oscar Grant in Oakland, California. He was pulled off a subway train, handcuffed and shot in the back by a policeman who claimed he was just going for his taser. That led to protests across the San Francisco Bay Area. That’s connected to Starr’s situation where she was being driven home by her friend Khalil (Algee Smith) when they were pulled over by the police for not using his turn signal. Things quickly escalate and Khalil is killed for a hairbrush.<br /><br />This causes a dilemma for Starr because she’s a witness to the murder. What will that mean for her life back at home? Will she get in the news? Will anyone come after her? What will that do to her dual life at school? She’s never told anyone there about her real life, and she feels like she’ll be exposed. Will she stand up for Khalil?<br /><br />The movie is very powerful and a fitting one for 2020 when Black Lives Matter protests have broken out across the country as more unarmed black people have been killed by the cops.<br />C

The Cube is a sci-fi psychological thriller. The movie is older than Saw but has the same feel as a group of people try to figure out The Cube, which is a maze of death, while getting into conflicts with each other.

Should the elite be able to kill who they please?
I enjoyed this film because of its efficiency and theme. First, it’s very short and compact and gets through things very quickly which I appreciated. Second, Jimmy Stewart gives a monologue where he thinks killing should be conducted by the elite over the ignorant masses. That becomes an intellectual argument from the beginning to the end of the film. Some embrace the idea. Others are repulsed. Some joke about it. The point is it’s not an either or debate. That’s the real strength of Rope.

I tried and gave up The pacing is just waaaayyyy too slow
I really tried with this movie but the slow pace and the lack of story development ended up boring me and I gave up. The film is about Oliver Reed and Karen Black taking over a home for the summer. Obviously it’s haunted and they are going to start seeing things. The problem is nothing happens until about 30 minutes in and then it’s not even a big deal. It takes even longer for anything substantive to happen. The idea was that it would slowly build up tension but it just ends up trying my patience.

Two manic depressive people find each other
Silver Linings Playbook is a unique romantic comedy. That’s because Bradley Cooper is a manic depressive and Jennifer Lawrence is depressed. Of course that leads to all kinds of humorous situations like when Lawrence ambushes Cooper when he goes jogging or Cooper wakes up his parents in the middle of the night to complain about Ernest Hemmingway. Cooper and Lawrence are great together. The supporting cast is strong as well. Cooper’s dad Robert DeNiro only cares about the Philadelphia Eagles winning. Chris Tucker is Cooper’s friend from the mental institute the two were committed to. Whenever he shows up he creates a laugh. It’s a great mix of story and characters.

While the samurai plot the peasants survive
Kill! is about two misfits, Tatsuya Nakadai and Etsushi Takahashi who get caught up in samurai plots. Nakadai is wise and seeks to avoid conflict while Takahashi thirsts for action and is impulsive. It’s quite a change from the characters that I’m used to seeing Nakadai play. Often he played the heavy with an amazing look of doom on his face. Here he’s by far the most interesting player in the movie and this might be the best performance I’ve seen from him.<br /><br />This is not your traditional Japanese period piece because it’s not about the samurai but rather Nakadai and Takahashi who represent the common people. That doesn’t mean there’s no action. On the contrary there’s plenty revolving around 7 samurai who think they are doing good but are really pawns. At the start they attack a clan leader and body parts go flying everywhere!

Some characters worked and otehrs didn't which made the movie too inconsistent
This movie starts with Snoop Dogg explaining his origins story for dominos while cussing people out for interfering with him. The question is whether the film could keep up that energy. It was a bit up and down focusing upon a number of outrageous and over the top characters. Some worked like David Arquette as the struggling domino tournament organizer. Others didn’t such as Anthony McKinley as the domino champion. He just wasn’t funny and seemed forced. That’s the problem with the entire movie, too inconsistent.

Great sci-fi because it mixes the conventional evil force from outespace with comedy
The Fifth Element was a great comedy sci-fi film flick written and directed by Luc Besson. It centers around an evil force that appears in the universe threatening to destroy everything. Only the Fifth Element who turns out to be a woman named Leeloo (Milla Jovovich) can stop it.<br /><br />What the movie does is create an odd couple relationship between Leeloo and a cabbie-former soldiers she runs into named Korben (Bruce Willis). They lead to all kinds of funny situations as well as the action element.<br /><br />It also mixed in conventional sci fi tropes like giant aliens landing in Egypt in 1914 and the evil force destroying spaceships.<br /><br />Finally the ensemble cast really shines. Gary Oldman plays a ruthless villain that wants the Fifth Element. Christ Tucker is an over entertainment star. Tom Lister Jr. plays the president of the federation, and more.<br /><br />This has really become a classic and for good reason.<br />C

Sinatra's character outweighs slow start
The president of the United States is coming to a small town and a team of assassins led by Frank Sinatra is going to try to kill him. The main issue is that it takes too long to get to the plot. It starts off focusing upon Nancy Gates and her son Kim Charney for the “human element.” Obviously they are going to get stuck in the middle of things. On the other hand an interesting element is Sinatra’s character. He was a World War II hero who felt lost afterward. The war turned him into a cold blooded killer and that’s all he knew so that’s what he became. Sinatra ends up outweighing the slow start.

Amy Winehouse delivers her Retro Soul set
This is the second Amy Winehouse concert I’ve watched and I liked it a lot better than the first. The songs just came off better. The set shows Winehouse’s two main influences old school Soul music and Ska. Thus she has one song that is almost a note for note rip off of a Marvin Gaye tune and she finishes with Toots and the Maytals’ Monkey Man which she heard when The Specials covered it in the 1980s. Not all of her songs work and she really sounds like she’s bumbling during some of them but it’s still a good show.

Dr Jekyll and Sister Hyde was a Hammer Production. The twist was that they took the Dr. Jekyll story and added Jack The Ripper and gender transformation. Jekyll played by Ralph Bates is obsessed with transforming himself into a woman and must kill females to get the right ingredients. There was some sex mixed in on the top as well. Eventually the good doctor is fighting over what gender he wants to be. It’s a pretty good plot executed well as are most of the films made by Hammer.

In this case, they’re talking about Yakuza (gangsters) gangs, specifically one run by Gomyo (Tatsuya Nakadai) who allies with a ronin (masterless samurai) named Sasao (Yoshio Harada). Gomyo is determined to out think and out scheme his competition and eliminate them usually be violence one by one.<br /><br />The problem with the story is that the story never gets going. It never generates enough interest to keep you watching. Second, the transfer from film to DVD was not that good. That means all the dark and nighttime scenes are very dark.<br />C

Captures the revolutionary zeal of southern Africa
Catch A Fire is about the radicalization of Derek Luke. He’s a foreman at a factory in South Africa who just wants to keep his head down and provide for his family. After he’s faced with the state security apparatus he asks himself if he can remain silent against the racist apartheid system.<br /><br />Luke provides a strong performance as a man who went through a dramatic transformation. His family is contrasted with that of Tim Robbins who plays a security officer. It’s an image of the haves and the have nots. There’s a good bit of tension in the second half as the story becomes a game of cat and mouse between Luke and Robbins.<br /><br />The movie also captures the revolutionary zeal of the period when not only people in South Africa, but Angola, Mozambique and Zimbabwe were all fighting for liberation.

Hands down Mickey Rourke's best role showing the costs & sacrifices he's made to be a wrestler
I was blown away by this movie the first time I saw it and still enjoy it to this day. The story is about the costs and sacrifices Mickey Rourke has gone through to maintain his wrestling career. That includes alienating his daughter Evan Rachel Wood, difficulties maintaining a relationship with Marisa Tomei, problems keeping up a regular day job, not to mention what it’s done to his body and health. Of course the movie also shows the insides of the wrestling world to planning out matches to cutting the forehead with razor blades and more. More importantly the matches are well done and believable. This is by far Rourke best role and the writing is excellent as well. You really feel for Rourke’s character seeing him go through all his ups and downs.

Can a young ronin find the samurai life in a corrupted Kyoto?
The Shinsengumi was a police force in Kyoto made up of ronin (masterless samurai) organized during the end of Tokugawa shogunate to protect it from dissenters who disagreed with the government’s stance on Westerners who were beginning to arrive. The opponents of the shogun are called imperialists in the film, because they called for the emperor to return to power as a way to undermine the Tokugawa.<br /><br />The story focuses upon a ronin Yamazaki Susumu (Raizo Ichikawa) who joins the Shinsengumi because he believes it will give him a place and a cause. He finds Kyoto a lawless place with scams, murder, extortion, and plenty of imperialist ronin as well. Susumu discovers that the Shinsengumi are little better however as the Commander Serizawa (Jun Tazaki) is a drunk, a rapist, and extorts money. Some of the other leaders are power hungry as well. The story is about whether Susumu can find the life he wants as a samurai in such a corrupted setting.<br /><br />Besides the sword fighting, there is also plenty of power politics, and plotting in this film. It’s also full of historical references to real events with the climax being a famous confrontation between the Shinsengumi and the imperialists. Overall, very enjoyable Japanese period piece.<br />C

Never feels like a real movie and story isn't interesting enough to keep one's attention
Simon Templar who was known as The Saint was a very popular British series starting off in novels and then TV in 1962. That featured Roger Moore as the globe-trotting playboy who tried to solve crimes. In 1968 that led to this move The Fiction-Makers, which was based upon one of The Saint books of the same name.<br /><br />Things start with Templar being hired to be a bodyguard to a famous author Amos Klein. Amos turns out to be a pen name for a woman. Templar poses as her and gets kidnapped by a wealthy businessman named Warlock who is so obsessed with Klein’s books that he wants him to not only write a new novel, but for them to re-enact them as well.<br /><br />Most Saint stories were more believable then this one. This is more akin to something like The Avengers TV show with a bit of surrealism. Another odd trait is that it never feels like a real movie. Rather it seems like an extended TV show for some reason. Most importantly, the story doesn’t deliver enough excitement or action to maintain one’s interests.

Exploration into evil and violence
No Country For Old Men was an amazing exploration into evil and violence by Joel and Ethan Coen. It features Josh Brolin as Llewelyn Moss who comes across a stash of money left over from a gun fight amongst drug cartels in Texas. The cartel sends Javier Bardem in one of his greatest roles as the hitman Anton Chigurh to collect their money. Tommy Lee Jones is Sheriff Ed Tom Bell is put in charge of the investigation into the murders and Chigurh. Special mention has to be made for Woody Harrelson as Carson Wells, another hitman who is told track down Chigurh when the cartel losses faith in him. Chigurh is the face of evil in the movie. He kills with absolutely no compulsion or emotion. He acts like a robot, almost like a living version of the Terminator. He follows Llewelyn like the plague leaving a trail of bodies behind him, which Sheriff Bell finds afterward.<br /><br />Chigurh is really the center of the movie. The notion of his character is set at the start as he first kills a deputy by choking him out with his handcuffs, and then murders a man using a device meant to kill livestock that punches a whole in a person’s skull. More importantly his maniacal personality is laid out when he stops at a gas station. He flips a coin and asks the man working there to guess whether it’s heads or toes. If he picked wrong Chigurh was going to kill him. For him, life means so little and killing is so normal that he would take the life of this man simply because he didn’t like the man making small talk with him. Into Chigurh’s sites comes Llewelyn. He was simply deer hunting when he came across the remains of a shootout between drug cartels and found some money. He had no idea what he was getting into.<br /><br />The third main character in the story is Sheriff Bell. He is horrified by the death that Chigurh leaves in his wake. At one point he unknowingly makes a comparison between slaughtering animals for food and the way that Chigurh kills people, there was no difference. He asks what kind of man would do such a thing, and what does it mean for society that it happened. He feels like this is a new era which is much more brutal then before, and he questions whether he is ready for it. He is the old man from the title.<br /><br />No Country For Old Men really is an amazing tale and one of the Coen Brothers’ best releases.<br />C

Great thriller about kidnapped girls and their parents all being prisoners
Prisoners is a thriller about the kidnapping of two little girls and their families’ reactions. The parents are played by Hugh Jackman and Maria Bello as the Dovers and Viola Davis and Terrence Howard as the Birchs. There are no real clues other than a suspicious van driven by a mentally handicapped man named Alex (Paul Dano). As time passes and nothing is found Mr Dover is convinced Alex is guilty and kidnaps him while the investigation goes in other directions.<br /><br />Part of the movie focuses upon the emotions of the fathers. Dover is full of anger and takes it out on Alex. Birch is full of guilt about what they’ve done. The story raises the question of do you commit a crime to solve a crime and what are the consequences? That’s where the title of the film comes from. Dover and Birch are prisoners of their actions while Alex and the two girls are literal prisoners.<br />C

A story of justice and redemption
Unforgiven is about justice and redemption. Clint Eastwood plays an old, washed up criminal who seeks revenge for a prostitute Anna Thomson who had her face and body cut up by a man who was never punished by the self-righteous sheriff played by Gene Hackman.<br /><br />This was the kind of movie that originally made Eastwood famous when he started doing Spaghetti Westerns in Italy. They blurred the line between good and bad. Hence Eastwood is the hero even though he was a former outlaw. Unforgiven lives up to that past.<br /><br />Eastwood has a great start. He practices shooting and can’t hit a thing. Then he can’t even get on his horse. He claims it’s punishment for his past sins but it’s just a sign of his age. It raises a big question of whether he can become a killer once more. Hackman’s character is maniacal making him a great, but understated villain. He’s the best part of the movie until Eastwood gets going. Together they make a winning combination.

Totallly original story of bank heist gone wrong along with a classic Pacino performance
Dog Day Afternoon is about a bank heist gone terribly wrong. Sal (Al Pacino) and Sonny (John Cazale) stick up a bank while it was closing knowing that meant there would hardly be anybody inside. As soon as they start things go wrong. Their driver chickens out. They try to spray point over the cameras but Sonny can’t even reach them. Then when they get to the vault it turns out that most of the money had just been picked up so there’s barely any cash left. The story isn’t actually about the heist however but is really a character study of Sonny and his interactions with the hostages, the police and his family. It remains one of Al Pacino’s greatest performances.<br /><br />The movie touches on 1970s New York. For instance at one time Sonny comes outside and starts screaming “Attica” when the cops get too close to him. That was a prison riot which was brutally put down by police. Another time a bunch of gays show up supporting Sonny. Again, this was after the Stonewall riots in New York City that brought gay riots to the forefront. That’s brought up because it turns out that Sonny is gay and married a man named Leon (Chris Sarandon). This was one of the first films to deal with this topic. Again, this was completely unexpected from what poses as a heist film.<br /><br />Dog Day Afternoon is a classic because the story was so original and Pacino really stands out. It’s a must see.<br />C

No scary or high tensions moments Just very routine like we've seen this before
Ready Or Not is an action movie about how evil and perverted the rich are.<br /><br />Grace (Samara Weaving) marries into the rich Le Domas family which has a tradition of hunting people after weddings. Her problem is she has no idea what she’s getting into, she’s just told the family has a tradition of playing a game after a new member is added. She quickly finds out it’s a game of life and death when she sees one of the maids shot and killed.<br /><br />There are some dark comedic moments like when one of the daughters keeps accidentally killing the help, but most of it is Grace getting more and more desperate as the family bumbles along in their task.<br /><br />The movie immediately invokes The Purge except for it’s a group just chasing after one person. Given then it’s hard to see anything special in Ready Or Not. There are no really terrifying situations or high tensions moments. It’s all kind of routine. Only the ending is good, but is it worthwhile to wait through the whole film to see it?<br />C

There's nothing like Hanzo's mix of action sex and iconoclasm
The Snare is about thieves. One is a lord stealing from the government. The other is the most notorious thief in Edo. Shintaro Katsu as Hanzo is his usual iconoclastic self. One moment he’s yelling at a lord and the next he pretends to commit suicide by cutting his belly with a surprise that humiliates his boss. Hanzo movies area always full of action, sex and perversity. Katsu takes on a whole gang of samurai retainers, uses sexual torture to get information from women, and runs into a perverted sex ring involving priests, merchants and a lord. There’s nothing like it. Hanzo is unique in 70s Japanese exploitation.

A classic comedy and the ghosts are just a bonus
Ghostbusters is a classic and for good reason. It is really funny. The ghosts were just an added bonus.<br /><br />Bill Murray got to play his usual smart aleck self. Dan Aykroyd was the straight man while Harold Ramis was the bumbling scientist. Special shout out goes to Rick Moranis who was a nerdy accountant. When he gets taken over by an evil spirit he’s even better.<br /><br />The jokes come quick and fast especially at the start. For example Murray is doing a psychic experience and gives a student electric shocks just for the hell of it.<br /><br />When there’s a full on apocalypse pending it even gets better. The Ghostbusters have to get to the top of a building to fight the monsters but the elevators are out so they have to walk all the way up. Then a giant marsh mellow man? Why not!<br /><br />For all of these reasons Ghostbusters has always been a must see.<br />C

Does Constantine care about humanity enough to save it?
Keanu Reeves starred as Constantine. As a boy he saw demons which made him attempt suicide, which was a mortal sin under the Catholic Church. He temporarily went to hell but was brought back to be an agent of God to keep the balance between the forces of good and evil on the Earth. He runs into Detective Angela Dodson and the case of her sister who killed herself. As he got involved he noticed that abnormal events were occurring leading to a huge conflagration. Constantine was always very cynical about his work. He only did his job in an attempt to buy his way into Heaven. Detective Dodson made him ask how much he actually cared about humanity.<br /><br />There are certain roles that Reeves is perfect for and one of them was Constantine. The don’t give a damn attitude of the character fit Reeves like a glove. He would often smirk at people to show his disdain for them which was delivered perfectly. As Detective Dodson tells him he was rude no matter where he was.<br /><br />The story was also very strong. It mixed myth with the occult in a battle between God and the Devil. For instance, a possessed Mexican jumps the border fence into the U.S. and cows begin dying all around him. Later Constantine goes to church to talk to the Angel Gabriel (Tilda Swinton). At one point he even goes to Hell looking for Dodson’s sister. There’s action as well as Constantine has to fight demons.<br /><br />All together you had a very interesting plot along with some great acting by Reeves.<br />C

Bitter sweet story of 2 high school seniors in 1970s Chicago
Cooley High is a classic 1970s movie focusing upon two friends Preach (Glynn Turman) and Cochise (Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs) during their senior year in high school in Chicago. The film goes from scenario to scenario as the two skip school, go to parties, drive around in a stolen car, and especially trying to get with girls. All the goofing off however comes home to roost at the end in a very sad ending that captures some of what was going on in the 60s-70s. Cooley High is also known for its soundtrack which was made by Motown and being a rare African American coming of age film for its time.<br />C

A story about manipulation
Finger of Guilt is about manipulation. Richard Basehart is a successful British movie executive who starts getting letters from Mary Murphy claiming a previous affair. He claims it’s blackmail but it may be part of his controversial past. It’s a good drama that drew me in to see what was behind Murphy’s story and what Basehart was willing to do about it. The end has some great shadowing and Murphy gives Basehart a look that is to die for.

Still great to see Godzilla go up against his mechanical doppelganger
The Terror of Mechagodzilla was the second appearance of Godzilla’s mechanical doppelganger and the last of the original 15 productions by Toho. Aptly one of the main characters was Akihiko Hirata as Dr. Shinji Mafune who also starred in the very first Godzilla movie in 1954 as another crazed scientist.<br /><br />This DVD contains both the American and Japanese versions of the film and it’s interesting to watch them back to back. That’s because the U.S. one starts off completely different than the original. It begins with a montage of footage from various Godzilla films with a voice over explaining how Godzilla was first seen as the greatest threat to humanity but people could do nothing to stop it. Then aliens began invading Earth and the monster became its protector. After being defeated several times the aliens decided to create their own version of Godzilla hence Mechagodzilla. This is great for fans of the beast because you get to see him smashing his way through cities and fighting various monsters. The original version starts with highlights of the battle from Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla with no commentary.<br /><br />The actual plot centers around the aliens not only building a new Mechagodzila but allying with Dr. Mafune who controls a beast of his own called Titanosaurus. Together they hope that the two can beat Godzilla and allow them to conquer the Earth.<br /><br />Of course that’s all nice but what you want to see is Godzilla going up against Mechagodzilla. I’ve always thought he was the 2nd best foe of Godzilla after Ghidorah. Seeing it spew out a rein of error from its eyes, mouth, fingers, chest, etc. was fantastic when I was a kid and still love it today.<br /><br />It’s nice to know that this film has stood the test of time and is still great fun.<br />C

Seth Rogen plays Seth Rogen in this bit of mindless fun
It’s amazing that even when Seth Rogen plays a married man with a kid he still acts like a manchild. The story is very simple Rogen and his wife Rose Byrne go to war with a fraternity that just moved in next door. Rogen’s acting is really stretched to the limit because he gets high, he complains, he gets pushed around. Actually, it’s just your typical Rogen performance. The movie is a bit of mindless fun and actually not bad. I’ve watched it several times and it always gets a laugh.

High school as social commentary about the haves and have nots
Heathers is a dark comedy critiquing the wealthy, powerful and popular people in high school. In this case the movie focuses upon three rich and spoiled girls all named Heather played by Shannon Doherty as Heather Duke, Lisanne Falk as Heather McNamara and Kim Walker as Heather Chandler. Their friend Veronica played by Winona Ryder hooks up with J.D. played by Christian Slater and they decide to destroy the Heather trio.<br /><br />The nature of the Heathers is revealed in the opening as Veronica dreams that they are hitting wooden balls into her head because they look down on her. Next, they have Veronica forge a love letter to a nerdy big girl to play a mean joke on her. These are examples of the power and influence the three girls have at school. They believe they are above everyone else and can literally do anything as a result. Veronica eventually decides she’s had enough and J.D. helps her out. The movie then enters into the dark imagination of Veronica and J.D. It’s full of irony as the Heathers suddenly become popular with all the people they once tormented and made fun of.<br /><br />The film is a commentary about high school life with the social hierarchy amongst students. These are repeated in adult life as well. As J.D. points out the high school is symbolic of society with the haves and the have nots.<br />C

Routine law drama but court scenes and Danny DeVito save the day
New attorney Matt Damon gets a job at a sleazy law firm run by Mickey Rourke and is put under the mentorship of Danny DeVito who is an ambulance chaser who hasn’t even passed the bar. Damon of course plays the straight arrow. He’s an archetype because you can predict how he’ll react to most situations. Luckily his main case is interesting. DeVito steals the show when he’s on screen as the fast talking con man. One time he sees a kid with a cast on his arm and tells him maybe he can get some money for his accident. In another scene one of their clients dies and he gloats at how much money they can make in their lawsuit. He’s also responsible for the few laughs in the film. In terms of story this is pretty routine because of Damon’s character. The court scenes and DeVito save the show.

Seth Rogan finds out that his mother Barbra Streisand had a first love before meeting his father and decides to take her on a road trip across the U.S. to find him.

Kochak returns to investigate the Seattle Strangler!
The Night Strangler was the second ABC made for TV movie to feature Carl Kolchak played by Darren McGavin as an investigative reporter looking into murders connected to the occult.<br /><br />The first one was called The Night Stalker and was released in 1972 featuring Kolchak investigating a vampire killing women in Las Vegas. That was so successful it led to a second TV movie The Night Strangler released in 1973 and eventually a TV series in 1974.<br /><br />This one starts in Seattle where Kolchak ended up after being expelled from Las Vegas for his investigation into the vampire. It turns out the city is suffering from a wave of women being strangled. That’s not all however as there are two strange twists. First, residue found on the victims show that they were killed by a man with dead flesh. Second, there were a similar round of stranglings back in 1952, 1931, 1910 and 1889 or every 21 years. These facts and others are relayed by a voice over done by Kolchak like an old detective movie or a film noir.<br /><br />Just like the first release The Night Strangler does a great job building up the tension in the story. First there are the grisly murders. Then Kolchak begins learning more and more details about the killer until he is seen for the first time, which leads to the first action scene as he throws around a bevy of policemen. The added bonus is that Kolchak acts like a jerk and frustrates everyone around him.<br /><br />This really is a great short movie and an original take on the horror genre.

It really has become a classic sci-fi comedy
The world is facing destruction unless a hidden galaxy is found and returned. Who you gonna call? Men In Black a secret government organization set up to deal with all the aliens that have been coming to Earth since the 1960s. This was the start of the great sci-fi-comedy series featuring Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith as two MIB agents. The two would form your usual odd couple with Jones being the seasoned veteran who was calm and collected and Smith being the newbie who was over anxious.<br /><br />Fun is to be had throughout such as when the big bug takes the skin off a human and can’t operate it properly or when Lee gives Smith a very tiny gun and he has gun envy and when Lee shoots an alien in the head only for it to grow back.<br /><br />It really has become a classic.<br />C

Dark comedy about cadavers medicine and love
It’s 1828 in Edinburgh, Scotland and there are two major medical schools in the city vying for cadavers. Into this mix comes Burke (Simon Pegg) and Hare (Andy Serkis) who see a demand and hope to provide the supply in this dark comedy. They can’t wait for people to die however so they create their own corpses. This leads in all kinds of directions from advances in medicine to rivalries between the elite to local gangsters to an all women’s version of McBeth. The play actually foreshadows the movie. I’ve always liked Pegg and he does a good job here as a reluctant killer who ends up doing it for love. Serkis is the more calculating one. The end tries to throw into all kinds of historical tie ins which is interesting as well.

Amazing story of survival and friendship
Papillon is a 1973 classic based upon a true story featuring Steve McQuen as Henry Charriere aka Papillon and Dustin Hoffman as Louis Dega. Both were convicted in France and sentenced to what amounted to life in prison in French Guyana. The story is about friendship and survival.<br /><br />The film works on many levels. First, there’s the relationship between Papillon and Dega. At first Papillon wanted to exploit Dega but eventually they become best friends. There’s the hardships in the prison. The boat trip there one many says 40% of the prisoners will die their first year in Guyana. They get beaten, betrayed and there’s solitary confinement. Finally, there’s the spirit of Papillon. He never loses hope. He constantly tries to escape. Even when he’s an old man he still talks to Dega about freedom.<br /><br />The movie is quite amazing. The toll Guyana takes on Papillon and Dega is beyond belief. The two actors go through a dramatic transformation. By the end they look like ancient men they have gone through so much. Their friendship is never broken.

Story of brotherhood and family with Kung Fu
Once Upon A Time In Shanghai is a movie full of surprises. I thought it was just another typical Kung Fu flick featuring Philip Ng who I’m sure got his start in movies because he reminds people of Bruce Lee. Ng is a poor peasant who moves to Shanghai in 1930 hoping for a better life. He finds a mentor in Sammo Hung and meets the rising gangster in town Andy On. From there one it didn’t go the way I expected. There’s love stories but they don’t get melodramatic. The Japanese are there of course threatening the Chinese. It turns out to be a story about brotherhood and family with the action thrown in on top. The Kung Fu by the war is top notch with special effects added to it.
