4 | Wait until the 2nd half and they hit you with the classics | I love Hall & Oates but I have to say I was a bit disappointed in this concert at first. They have been around long enough where they could’ve played back to back to back hits. The problem was they didn’t. Happily in the second half they played all their classics and I was fulfilled. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 5.0 from 4 reviewers.

4 | Nuclear devastation and capitalist exploitation wrapped up in a Kaiju film | Mothra stands out in the Godzilla series because it’s not just a traditional Kaiju film where Godzilla and another monster show up and duke it out. Mothra came from an island devastated by nuclear testing which harkened back to the original Godzilla film which was about the legacy of World War II. Mothra also came with the twin miniature sisters who spoke for Mothra and sang to it as well. Finally, the film highlighted capitalist exploitation as two businessmen find Mothra’s egg and want to use it to make money. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 3.7 from 47 reviewers.

3 | Makes fun of jocks and New Age movements What more could you ask for? | Burt Reynolds already had success with The Longest Yard in 1974 which was partly about football so he took a stab at another movie involving the sport in 1977 with Semi-Tough. This one was a comedy-drama about jocks and a relationship between Kris Kristofferson and Jill Clayburn which is complicated by Kristofferson’s following a New Age philosophy. There are scenes mocking the intelligence of athletes, their womanizing and the eccentricities of the rich team owners. There’s a whole sequence mocking New Age movements. Reynolds really shines. He has all kind of great moments and sarcastic lines that are delivered perfectly. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.3 from 124 reviewers.

3 | Funny spoof of the Rapture and Apocalypse all rolled up into one | The Rapture happened where all the good Christians went to heaven and then everyone else including Anna Kendrick has to suffer through the end of the world. The movie makes some great jokes about this like talking locusts and crows that throw insults at humans. The dead come back as wraiths but then the anti-Christ doesn’t need them and they become unemployed pot heads. The gist of the movie is that the anti-Christ Craig Robinson wants Kendrick to be her wife and she needs to figure her way out of that dilemma. There are some good side characters as well. Thomas Lennon is a guy that just wants to mow his lawn. Rob Huebel is always saying something in appropriate and Ken Jeong shows up as a surprise guest. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.4 from 1324 reviewers.

4 | Hilariojus play on 1970s blaxploitation movies | Black Dynamite was a spoof of Blaxploitation films featuring Michael Jai White as Black Dynamite a vigilante taking on the man. It features all the tropes of the genre such as women, sex, guns, violence, kung fu action, some Soul and Funk tunes, plus a powerful white man exploiting the black population. Being a satire everything is made more over the top than your usual exploitation flick plus jokes It’s all well done. For instance a woman tells Black Dynamite that dope is now in the orphanage. Dynamite says not the orphanage because he used to be an orphan. He then flashes back to when he was called an orphan in school. The three kids that said that to him then go flying out of a window. There’s some great cameos as well such as Arsenio Hall and a guy dressed up like Captain Kangaroo as pimps. The climax is hilarious as well. This all makes Black Dynamite a very fun ride.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.8 from 3077 reviewers.

2 | Better than the original but still silly exploitation | Sister Street Fighter was a Toei Studios spin off of Sonny Chiba’s Street Fighter. Etsuko Shihomi as the lead got her own series of movies. Like the first one Return of Sister Street Fighter is just pure non-sensical exploitation. In this one Etsuko is sent to Japan to look for a missing woman named Shurei (Akane Kawasaki). Really that’s just an excuse for Etsuko to beat up all the gangsters that come her way. That includes a group of assassins picked from a tournament that included an African and a Pacific Island fighters plus a ninja and a Bruce Lee rip off for good measure. Also included are drugs, nudity and a bad guy in a wheelchair with a fake red hand. It’s much better than the original Sister Street Fighter if you can believe that, but still pretty ridiculous.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.3 from 4 reviewers.

4 | One of the great 60s pop-art films of all time | Tokyo Drifter by Seijun Suzuki is one of the greatest 60s pop-art films ever made. Tetsu (Tetsuya Watari) is a former yakuza (gangster) turned straight when his boss Kurata (Ryuji Kita) went legit. Kurata is in financial trouble however and some other gangsters want to take advantage of him. That leads Tetsu to return his violent old ways.<br /><br />The movie starts out with Tetsu being roughed up and it’s filmed in black and white. That’s to symbolize the good vs bad choice that lays ahead for the main character. Then color splashes onto the screen with a shot of just Tetsu by himself showing that he’s going to try to break out of this binary world facing him. The use of bright colors and stark sets would be one of the trademarks of the film. This is the pop art style of Suzuki. It really needs to be seen to be appreciated.<br /><br />The story also has a Film Noir feel to it as Tetsu is a man trapped by his circumstances with no real way out. He even does a voice over about how he can’t escape trouble a classic Noir trope.<br /><br />Overall it’s a great mix and a beauty to watch. | The movie title "Tokyo Drifter (The Criterion Collection) [DVD]," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 273 reviewers.

3 | Wasn't half bad | This movie was based upon one of my favorite kids’ TV shows growing up. It wasn’t half bad as a new interpretation. Will Ferrell and Danny McBride are two of the stars and they have plenty of funny moments. There are also a couple of scenes that seem like they came right out of an acid trip like when they see a giant crab crawling towards them and then it falls through the surface only to pop out perfectly boiled and ready to eat! This obviously came from someone who was high. I have to say I wasn’t expecting anything from Land of the Lost and was pleasantly surprised. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.4 from 9465 reviewers.

4 | Jim Jarmusch delivers | I didn’t even know Jim Jarmusch made this film so that gave it an added boost in appeal. Of course, it starred Bill Murray and Jeffrey Wright, that’s the real reason I wanted to watch it. The story is about Murray trying to figure out whether he had a child he never knew about. The story has some real low key comedic moments which fits in with Jarmusch’s style. There’s also a strong soundtrack which is always a plus.<br /><br />I think Jarmusch’s output has been a bit uneven lately. Paterson for example was excellent while The Dead Don’t Die didn’t deliver. Broken Flowers is definitely one to watch. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.2 from 745 reviewers.

3 | War is hell but sticks to racist stereotype of Vietnamese as prostitutes | Hamburger Hill has two parts. The first quarter is bad as it introduces the main characters but also follows a common racist stereotype of showing Vietnamese as prostitutes. In fact, the only Vietnamese that get speaking parts are prostitutes. Many U.S. movies would only show Vietnamese as whores or Vietcong. The rest of the movie is about the soldiers going to Hamburger Hill and it’s like a new film. It shows the comradery between the troops, how they missed home, the insanity of war as the Americans charge up and down the same hill over and over again suffering casualty after casualty. It really shows how war is hell. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 705 reviewers.

2 | Plot gets convulted and unbelievable after a good start | Three Days of the Condor doesn’t start like it would be a thriller. Joe Turner (Robert Redford) is a CIA analyst working at the American Literary Historical Society which is a front for the Agency reading and breaking down foreign papers and documents. Joe sneaks out a back entrance from the office to get some food, and while he’s out the office gets attacked by a group led by Max von Sydow and the staff is massacred. Joe then goes on the run not sure who is after him and who is trying to help. He eventually kidnaps Kathy (Faye Dunaway) to try to find a place to hide. Thus sets up the story of assassins trying to track down Joe as he runs across New York City trying to stay alive.<br /><br />The movie has an exciting start, but then stalls. The worst part is when Redford and Dunaway sleep together. This is because Redford understands her through her photos, which show that she’s lonely. This is just after she gets off the phone with her boyfriend. Ridiculous plot and doesn't fit in with the rest of the movie at all. Then things get even worse when Turner taps into a hotels phone network like he has the expertise to do that?<br /><br />In the end this was a disappointing film. It had a great start, but the story got convolted and unbelievable.<br />C | The movie title "3 Days of the Condor," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 3568 reviewers.

4 | You think it's about Disco but it's about dreams of escaping one's neighborhood racism and rape | Saturday Night Fever spread what was going on in New York City clubs in the 1970s across the country. Instantly there was a Disco craze in America. The movie was about more than just John Travolta as Tony Manero dancing however, much more. It was about dreaming, escaping working class upbringings, racism, and rape.<br /><br />Manero came from a working class Italian American family where he was expected to be like his father. He didn’t want to do that however. Disco was Tony’s form of youthful rebellion and hopes of a different life. He wore red shiny shoes, wide collar shirts, a leather jacket to make him standout from the regular look of his neighborhood. He spent every weekday waiting for the weekend so he could hit the clubs. He was a dancing star there and a prima donna. It made him feel important where if he ended up like his dad he would just be another working guy with a wife and kids.<br /><br />There are two other serious issues to discuss in the film.<br /><br />First there’s racism. Tony and his friends talk about how much they hate blacks and Latinos, and after one of their friends gets beat up they attack a Puerto Rican gang. Later Tony seems to notice the racism that he’s grown up around and tries to make up for it during a dance competition. As Tony tells Stephanie everyone in his neighborhood dumps on everyone else, and he had enough of it. It was another motivation for Tony to get out of his neighborhood.<br /><br />Second, there’s a lot of disturbing sexual scenes. In one Tony attempts to rape Stephanie. In another a girl who has been after Tony for the entire movie decides to sleep with all of his friends. Again, this has a deep impact on Tony and makes him want to change. At the end he tries to stop seeing women just as people he can use and as sexual objects.<br /><br />The film doesn’t try to sugar coat these issues or glamorize them. It puts them right in people’s face showing that Saturday Night Fever is about much much more than Disco.<br />C | The movie title "Saturday Night Fever," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 8683 reviewers.

3 | Sam Rami did great job with this flick which turns into moral question of how to get rid of a curse | A bank loan officer named Christine (Alison Lohman) denies an old woman an extension on her mortgage. The woman attacks Christine in her car and then curses her. That’s the beginning of Dram Me To Hell directed by Sam Rami. The movie is about Christine’s battle with the curse of the old woman.<br /><br />Rami did a great job mixing up the scenes. At one moment there’s a fly crawling into Christine’s mouth and the next there’s the old woman in her bed spitting out goo all over Christine’s face.<br /><br />The story also takes an interesting twist as Christine is faced with a moral question in order to get rid of the curse.

4 | NJ town where the cops act like the mob and the sheriff has to decide whether he'll stand up to them | Cop Land is a great play upon the traditional police drama and the thin blue line. The blue line is that cops don’t rat on each other even if they break the law. Robert De Niro as Internal Affairs Officer Tilden explains in a voice over during the introduction New York City cops wanted to move out of the city and settled in Garrison, New Jersey just across the river. What did they do there? They acted like the mafia. They got to tell local Sheriff Freddy Heflin (Sylvester Stallone) what to do. They made deals with each other and sent out threats and messages to those that didn’t toe the line. Heflin knew something of what was going on but always looked the other way. That’s because he always wanted to be a big city policeman but couldn’t because of a hearing disability. Things blow up and the dilemma for Heflin is whether he will stand up to the New York cops that live in his community or will he continue to give them free reign of the town.<br /><br />The movie is aided by an all star cast. Besides Stallone and De Niro, there is Lieutenant Donlan played by Harvey Keitel, Officer Jack Rucker played by Robert Patrick, Officer Gary Figgis played by Ray Liotta, Deputy Sheriff Betts played by Janeane Garofalo, and Rose Donland played by Cathy Moriarty.<br /><br />Stallone does a great job in the lead. He shows the appeal the big city cops have on him and how it influences his policing of the town. When he has to face them he's like a little child talking to his childhood hero. It's not your typical Stallone tough guy role.<br /><br />If you want to go beyond the usual police and thieves film, then you should watch Cop Land.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 1761 reviewers.

Second there are a lot of times when they don’t have any old photos that they created their own images to use like when it said Tina Turner played high school basketball they just filmed some girls practicing.

3 | Don't take the movie seriously and just enjoy Ice Cube as XXX | State of the Union was the second XXX film. It was basically a vehicle for Ice Cube to be the new XXX and act like a bad ass.<br /><br />The story begins with the National Security Agency being under attack and Agent Gibbons (Samuel L. Jackson) seeking out Darius Stone (Ice Cube) to be his new XXX and find out what happens. That allows Cube to beat people up, blow stuff up, crash boats, and other fun action sequences. He also gets to talk a lot of smack and cop an attitude.

2 | This movie is a mess | I was confused a bit about this movie because the intro had nothing to do with what came next. The story turns out to be about a teacher who is abused by a rich man mixed in with Bolo murdering children. It plays upon common tropes of Kung Fu movies like revenge and training as the teacher has to prepare for his fight. You would think the rich guy would be the main story and he is for most of the film but then it ends with Bolo.

3 | Had its moments but is largely routine | Shaft started the entire Blaxploitation genre so it was inevitable that it would be turned into a franchise. Shaft’s Big Score! was the second in the series and re-united Richard Roundtree with famed photographer and director of the original Shaft Gordon Parks. While the first film was a groundbreaker for black cinema this was far more routine. It has its moments like when Shaft gets to talk back to cops and sleep with beautiful women. On the other hand, the soundtrack pales in comparison to Isaac Hayes’ opus and is even downright dull in moments plus the climax is drawn out far too much. Basically this is something to watch for completists. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 418 reviewers.

He seemingly bumbles around while having a master plan. Marter is always trying to find a logical explanation for things when he’s out in space and things don’t follow the same rules as when he was on Earth.

It follows Mike Colter as Cage, the reluctant hero who is dragged into fighting crime in Harlem.<br /><br />The season was a tale of two halves. The first featured Mahershala Ali as the criminal Cottonmouth. He was a complicated man who was both ruthless but also had a sophisticated and caring side on top of a traumatic youth. Every superhero story needs a good villain and Ali provided that in spades.<br /><br />Unfortunately, in the second half Erik LaRay Harvey as Willis Stryker was Cage’s main opponent and he wasn’t half as interesting. In fact, he was pretty stereotypical. His part wasn’t as good as the start.<br /><br />There were a slew of other interesting characters however. Simone Missikc was the cop Misty Knight. Theor Rossi was Shades who worked with Cottonmouth, Frank Whaley as Officer Rafael Scarfe Missike’s partner, Frankie Faison as Pop, Cage’s boss, and Alfre Woodward as Black Mariah a crooked politician.<br /><br />The series also incorporated Harlem and black culture. In one scene for instance Woodward talks about how the borough was a mecca because of writers like Zora Neal Hurston and figures like Malcolm X. Another time Colter and Faison have a discussion of African American mystery writers like Walter Mosley and Chster Himes. Colter also wears a black hoody which was a nod to Trayvon Martin whose killer claimed he was menacing because he wore a sweatshirt.<br /><br />The show gives nods to the comics. It gives Cage’s origins story at Seagate Prison. One time Faison calls Cage power man which was his superhero name. Another time there’s a scene where he where’s an open yellow shirt which was his original look when he first appeared. They even throw in his headband in one part that he wore in the original comics.<br /><br />For Hip Hop heads you might notice that each episode was named after a song by Gangstarr. There’s also one great scene with Ali talking about the Biggie poster he has in his office, and there’s a strong soundtrack as well.<br /><br />Despite the Styker parts Luke Cage is still an excellent superhero series. | The movie title "Luke Cage: The Complete First Season [Blu-ray]," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 271 reviewers.

3 | Almost destroyed an important true story of corruption by trying to make it a thriller | Backstabbing For Beginners is very loosely based upon true events. It’s also an example of how Hollywood makes its own history. In the 1990s up to 2003 the United Nations ran a program called Oil for Food where it managed the sale of Iraq’s oil and used the profits to buy humanitarian goods for the country. It had a budget of billions of dollars and was manipulated by the Iraqi government, the U.N., traders and corporations to make huge profits. All of that is included in the film. The story does a good job about how all those involved were interested in maintaining the status quo because they were making money off of it. This being Hollywood they had to make it a thriller so they included murders, kidnappings, sex and a love story. It gets a little overblown as they keep on adding these types of scenes. In fact, there’s a whole part towards the end that doesn’t even have to do with the Oil for Food program anymore. Thankfully they returned to the corruption in the conclusion. Ben Kingsley is good as the United Nations deputy secretary in charge of the program. He’s always cursing which is funny. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.2 from 499 reviewers.

4 | Great haunting story combing love with ghosts | Crimson Peak is a ghost story wrapped in a love story. It takes place during the Victorian age as heiress Edith Cushing (Mia Wasikowska) marries Thomas Sharpe (Tom Hiddleston) and goes to live in his rundown estate with his sister Lucille (Jessica Chastain). There’s a curse that comes with the Sharpe family. It’s very good because it really works on the story instead of just going for the scares and was another fine movie by Guillermo del Toro.<br /><br />The movie has a good pace. A ghostly figures shows up once or twice at the start to let you know what the story is about and then slowly explains why they exist. It doesn’t hit you over the head with it. The Sharpe mansion is also a giant Gothic beast making it the perfect setting.<br /><br />The ghosts also have a purpose to them which is different from the usual fare. They serve as a warning instead of trying to kill people.<br /><br />Most importantly the movie is all about the story. It doesn’t go for cheap thrills and scares. That’s thanks to del Toro who really excels at these types of films.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 6981 reviewers.

4 | Takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions | The death of a father lets his kids all air out their problems and they have a lot of them. The children include Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, Adam Driver and Corey Stoll. For whatever reason Stoll was largely left out while the story focuses upon the other three. Driver plays a man child. Fey is a mother in a loveless marriage. Bateman is screwed up but can’t let things out. Stoll is just angry. In the middle of this there’s actually quite a few funny moments. Some even made me laugh out loud. It really takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions. It’s a very good comedy-drama. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 8906 reviewers.

2 | Stories are a bit routine and Honor Blackman is the real standout | The early Avengers series was not the Emma Peel one most people fell in love with. It was more of a straight forward secret agent show dealing with assassins, smugglers and other bad guys. Only a few really stand out such as one about a cult. There was little of the quirkiness or fun the show became known for. In fact, most of the stories are rather routine. One of the highlights was Honor Blackman as Patrick Macnee’s sidekick which showed the beautiful women the show would become known for. She also wore a lot of leather suites. Blackman was also a fighter and not just eye candy. She would set the standard for the later Peel character. Unfortunately she’s not in every episode. In comparison, when Blackman wasn’t there Macnee was usually paired with Julie Stevens whose job was to look pretty and sing Jazz tunes. She added absolutely nothing to the story besides musical interludes.<br /><br />In a way Season 2 makes you appreciate what The Avengers became. Here you have the secret agents. The woman who is the equal to the male lead. It’s just that the stories needed more ingenuity to make them really stand out. | The movie title "Avengers," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.4 from 193 reviewers.

3 | Good thriller that takes conventional story and gives it a twist | Cold Creek Manor takes a conventional thriller and makes it interesting. The trouble starts when Dennis Quad and Sharon Stone move their family into a big house in upstate New York that used to belong to Stephen Dorff. Of course Dorff doesn’t like the new residents and hence you have your conflict. Very conventional but the movie adds a little twist to things. The tensions also builds up nicely and Dorff does some crazy things.

3 | WRitten by a real Punk | I appreciate this movie because you can tell it was written by a real Punk. It goes through some of the many genres of Punk. It has real Punk bands. It has a Punk show. This is like insider information that only someone from the scene would know. The story is about Ben Schnetzer coming out of his Goth shell and living some. His dead dad from the first SLC Punk film commentates the story. It therefore connects with the past while laying out a new story. | The movie title "Punk's Dead: SLC Punk 2," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.0 from 306 reviewers.

2 | Concept better than the actual product | Vincent Price wants to discover the fear that becomes so powerful in people it’s able to crack their spines. He calls the sensation The Tingler.<br /><br />The movie has a great start as the director walks out and says the audience needs to prepare to scream. The problem is the movie isn’t scary. The first part is Price conducting a series of experiments upon himself and others to see how much he can scare them. There’s only one really striking part when Price gives a fear drug to a woman and she sees a tub of blood in bright red when the movie is shot in black and white. It’s a great contrast. Otherwise I think the concept of the film was better than what they actually produced. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.8 from 810 reviewers.

5 | Great fantasy challenging middle class suburban life | Edward Scissorhands was a great fantasy tale by Tim Burton starring Johnny Depp as Edward. Edward was created by an inventor who died forcing Edward out into the wider world. He’s found by a local Avon saleswoman who takes him in to live in the local suburb. That in fact is what the movie is about, it questions the middle class suburban American lifestyle.<br /><br />The movie contrasts Edward with the suburb. He’s an innocent who knows nothing about the world outside of the house he was invented in. He wears an all black S&M type outfit, has pale white skin, and has blades for fingers. He looks menacing even though he’s like a child. The town on the other hand has houses that all look alike. They’re full of stay at home women who like to gossip. It’s characterized by conformity which Edward is about to shake up.<br /><br />Movie really is a great tale and Depp was perfect for the part. It had the characteristic weirdness of Tim Burton as well. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.8 from 15693 reviewers.

3 | A story about manipulation | James Clayton (Colin Farrell) is a talented tech programmer. During the opening credits it shows that his father was a CIA officer who died in Peru. Walter Burke (Al Pacino) knew his father and uses that to recruit him into the Agency. That’s the start of the story which is about manipulation.<br /><br />The first part of the movie is establishing the relationship between the two main characters. One the one hand Clayton is put into all kinds of compromising situations by Burke and told they’re all part of the program. The point of these exercises is to teach Clayton that mind games are all part of espionage. At the same time Burke starts playing the role of mentor and father figure to Clayton, something that he’s always been looking for. This creates a dilemma for Clayton. He wants to believe in Burke but he’s just been trained to trust no one. Obviously being a spy is all about deception which is what troubles Clayton. He doesn't know if he can have confidence in another person ever again because he fears the whole world is about manipulation.<br /><br />The story is strong and interesting. It does a good job focusing everything upon the theme.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 1480 reviewers.

3 | Great to see the guillotines at work again | This was another spinoff of the Shaw Brothers’ famous Flying Guillotine film. This time Carter Wong uncovers a plot within the Shaolin monastery that takes him to an old man who wields the flying guillotines. It’s great to see them at work again. People’s heads get lopped off. The only thing it missed was the gushing blood out of the corpses. Carter is also great. I always associate him with John Carpenter’s Big Trouble In Little China but he was a star in Hong Kong far before that. The ending is also very interesting because it’s not very typical. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.1 from 44 reviewers.

5 | Humanity emerging out of exploitation | Anthony Hopkins plays Doctor Frederick Treves who discovers John Merrick (John Hurt) known as the Elephant Man in a freakshow. The story is one of humanity emerging out of exploitation.<br /><br />The movie really emphasizes how Merrick was exploited throughout his life because of his deformities. It wasn’t just in the Freakshow however. Even when Treves set up Merrick at a London hospital he was like an exhibit to a slew of rich society people that wanted to see him and a guard who brought in people from his bar for a fee. Throughout his life Merrick wasn’t just seen as a “freak” as they called him but a thing, not a human being. The story really lays this out again and again.<br /><br />From this depraved history however Merrick was an intelligent and sensitive man. This isn’t apparent at first as he doesn’t talk, but as he develops a relationship with Treves his humanity comes out. That’s highlighted in one scene when Merrick meets Treves’ wife and he breaks down and starts crying because he said he’d never been treated nicely by a beautiful woman before.<br /><br />It’s this duality that plays throughout this powerful story. John Hurt really did an amazing job with this role.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 2188 reviewers.

2 | Story never develops for Sonny Chiba film | The Bodyguard was based upon a Japanese manga series. This is the American version of the film that has some extra footage added to it.<br /><br />The movie has a famous opening with a quote from the Bible’s Ezekiel about “The path of the righteous man and defender is beset on all sides by the iniquity of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.” Movie lovers will know Quentin Tarantino used that same quote for Samuel L. Jackson’s character in Pulp Fiction.<br /><br />The story is about Sonny Chiba declaring that he is going to destroy all the drug gangs in Japan. As a sign of his seriousness he Karate chops the top off a soda bottle! He then says that anyone that has any information about the drug gangs should come forward and he would protect them as their bodyguard, hence the title. A young woman does so and the story then revolves around Chiba trying to figure out what exactly she knows. The movie tries to build tension with various murders and plotting by the bad guys, but it never really pans out. It just doesn’t have that much good writing to make the story that interesting.<br />C | The movie title "The Bodyguard [Slim Case]," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 3.0 from 3 reviewers.

4 | Kid loses his American Dream and decides to create his own through impersonation & fraud | Catch Me If You Can is about conman Frank Abagnale (Leonardo DiCaprio). It’s based upon a true story. As the opening scene says by the age of 19 Abagnale had impersonated being a pilot for Pan-Am Airways, a pediatrician, and an assistant attorney general in Louisiana. The movie is a biography of Abagnale’s rise and fall. It tells the tale of a kid whose American dream was smashed and tried to create one out of fiction and crime.<br /><br />The movie begins with Abagnale’s motivation. He was raised in a happy and successful family that ran into financial problems that ruined everything. When he saw things going wrong with his family he decided to do wrong. That started with him posing as a French substitute teacher when he was switched from a private school to a public one. One thing led to another and he was doing check fraud and then off to bigger crimes.<br /><br />It then compares the glamorous life that Abagnale created for himself to the FBI agent Carl Hanratty (Tom Hanks) that has his case. Hanratty for instance washes his clothes at a laundromat, has no sense of humor and works on Christmas Eve because he has nothing to go home to.<br /><br />The heart of the story has two parts. The first is Abagnale playing out his dreams. Whenever he hears something interesting he creates a new identity and becomes a new person. The other is the cat and mouse game as Hanratty chases Abagnale around America and then to Europe. There’s a twist at the end as well.<br /><br />Overall this is a light hearted and fun crime movie but not like your usual cops and robbers tale.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 3.3 from 5 reviewers.

4 | A man finds out his whole life is a lie when he goes to Mars | Mars is the site of strategic mining for Earth. There is a revolt going on there however which threatens the enterprise. Thrown into the middle of things is Doug (Arnold Schwarzenegger) a working class construction worker. Doug has constant dreams about going to Mars so he tries a new system called Total Recall that implants thoughts into people’s minds including a trip to the red planet. He chooses a package that would make him a secret agent. The problems start when he claims he’s a secret agent even before the process begins. He finds out his whole life was a lie.<br /><br />Total Recall was a blast when it came out and is still great fun today. It had some of the best special effects before CGI took over. There’s a great scene where Doug is using a mechanical woman’s body and it comes apart in segments. The story was just as good. Even after the first reveal that Doug’s life wasn’t what he thought it was their continued to be twists and turns. By this time writers also realized that Schwarzenegger was great with one liners so there are a bunch of those throughout the film. It even plays upon a common theme of the rich and powerful exploiting the people for their own gain. Overall this still stands as a great piece of sci-fi.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 5187 reviewers.

In the aftermath there are people trapped in the wreckage screaming at night about their pain and cursing the survivors. The story goes through phases of shock to desperation to what they’re willing to do to live. It’s amazing story.

2 | No tension No mood No thrills No horror | A small Texas city is terrorized by a serial killer. The problem is there is no tension, no mood, no thrill. I know The Town That Dreaded Sundown is from the 1970s and a B-Movie but it doesn’t stack up against contemporary slasher films from the period. There’s one scene where the killer shows up and terrorizes a couple and decides to stab a girl by tying a knife to the end of a trombone?!?! I didn’t get it and it didn’t make it creepy just dumb. That captures the entire movie. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 944 reviewers.

4 | Perfect mix of strong characters and sports | Chariots of Fire is about two outsiders who got to compete in the 1924 Olympics as runners. Ben Cross was a Jew going to Cambridge which he said was a bastion of Christian Anglo-Saxon power. Ian Charleson was an evangelical Scott. Much of the movie is about their inner drive and determination to compete and most importantly to get better at what they did. That meant a lot of sacrifices.

3 | A heartfelt film about adult relationships | As John C Riley says he’s depressed and in a tailspin. Then he meets Marisa Tomei and her son Jonah Hill leading to an awkward relationship. It turns into a battle of wills between Riley and Hill. Yes there’s some laughs but really this is a movie about adult relationships where people have to work out how and if they can be together.

4 | Quirky and unique dark comedy about a corpse | When I read the description of this movie I thought it was just a take off of Tom Hanks’ Cast Away. Paul Dano is stuck on an island and befriends a corpse played by Daniel Radcliffe. Then it began and it turned into a really quirky ad unique dark comedy. That starts with Radcliffe’s corpse farting non-stop. He even gets washed into the surf and blows up bubbles he has so much gas. It just becomes completely irreverent and very funny. It’s not for everyone because you have to appreciate the circumstances but I really liked it. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.4 from 3716 reviewers.

2 | Struggles of a black family but plot is really meandering until 1/2 way through | River Niger was based upon a play. It follows the struggles of Johnny (James Earl Jones) and his family. Things start with Johnny who is a painter, a poet, and a drunk who can’t keep his money. He constantly borrows from his friend Dr. Dudley Stanton (Louis Gossett Jr). His wife Mattie (Cicely Tyson) has cancer. His son Jeff (Glynn Turman) returns home from the Air Force and is contacted by his friends who want him to help with their plans for revolution. The problem is one of the crew is a drug addict, one is a drug dealer, and a third is a sexual predator. The movie is about whether the family can stay together facing all these problems.<br /><br />The problem with the story is that it is so loosely constructed it’s actually hard to figure out what the point is at first. It’s not until halfway through the film that things become clear about the plot. It takes so long to develop however it makes the viewer wonder if it was worthwhile to wait for it. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.3 from 78 reviewers.

3 | Typical Tyler Perry woman in need saved by a man and church | I Can Do Bad All By Myself follows the familiar Tyler Perry pattern of a woman in need, Taraji P. Henson, being saved by the right man, Adam Rodriguez. In between that is some comedy when Madea shows up and starts talking, insulting people, and threatening to beat people up. This movie also included a few songs song by Henson, Gladys Knight, and others. Music used to be a mainstay of Perry’s Madea plays before he started making movies. There’s plenty of church thrown in there as well which was always a Perry favorite.<br /><br />Brian White is the perfect bad guy. He’s presents menace every time he’s on screen. Henson does the screwed up part great. Hope Wilson as the head of a group of orphans has the perfect attitude created by living a hard life. My main criticism was the movie got really cheesy at the end just like Perry’s plays used to do. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.8 from 4007 reviewers.

3 | Ben Affleck writes & directs bank heist-love story | I really liked The Town when it came out in the theaters in 2010 but upon further viewings I came to question whether Ben Affleck who directed, starred and co-wrote the movie was trying to do too much. That arises from the fact that The Town is both a heist film and a love story. I’m not sure there was a good balance between those two.<br /><br />Affleck as Doug leads a bank robbing team made up of Jeremy Renner as James-Jem, Owen Burke as Desmond-Dez and Slaine as Albert-Gloansy. The film opens with a job where they run into bank teller Rebecca Hall as Claire and temporarily take her hostage. The problem arises when the gang finds out she lives right next to them, and they’re afraid they will run into her and she will identify them to the police. Doug gets the job of taking care of her. Unexpectedly he falls in love instead. Here’s where the storyline comes into question. Does it spend too much time on the romance? Still not sure.<br /><br />I still give The Town a thumbs up. The bank jobs are well done and full of action especially the one at the end, which is the climax. The conclusion also effectively plays on Doug as both a criminal and his love for Claire.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 8739 reviewers.

4 | Social satire of the rich in America | Good Fences is a satire about the rich in America. Danny Glover is so smitten with success that he moves his family to an upper class and all white neighborhood. It’s a culture shock for his wife Whoopi Goldberg who the film focuses upon. She gets to see how the other half lives and she’s shocked by the excesses, the drugs used by the white housewives and more. Danny Glover is a trip. He’s been brought up to think that being rich means being white and that turns him against black people. It’s an example of the cultural indoctrination and racism that blacks suffer from in America. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.0 from 151 reviewers.

2 | 3rd time was not the charm for the Candyman franchise | The legend of the Candyman continued for a third film in Day of the Dead. Donna D’Errico was Caroline McKeever the great great granddaughter of Daniel Robitaille/Candyman (Tony Todd). She didn’t believe in the legend and just wanted to preserve his legacy as an artist. Of course she says his name five times and then he comes back and kills all her friends and acquaintances.<br /><br />What this movies lacks is any kind of theme or plot. The first two Candymans were not only about an evil soul but racism in America as Roubitaille was a slave killed for falling in love with his master’s daughter. Here it’s just Caroline running around trying to find out what happened to her friends as they get killed. The whole story just boils down to Candyman asking Caroline to die for him, and it’s not very satisfying.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.2 from 198 reviewers.

4 | Little glimpse into the movie making business | Full Tilt Boogie is a documentary by Quentin Tarantino about the making of Robert Rodriguez’s From Dusk Till Dawn. It has a funny start as George Clooney and Tarantino walk together over the song Staying Alive and then borrow from This Is Spinal Tap and can’t find their way to the set. Rodriguez walks out with a fanny pack on during a convention and Fred Williamson is interviewed with his vampire make-up face on showing that the director was going to take a light mood.<br /><br />The movie turns out to be a mix of talking heads and shots during filming. The people interviewed weren’t the usual however as they did people like a grip, a man who delivered food, personal assistants and others instead of just focusing upon Rodriguez and the stars. The doc is really meant to give a little glimpse into making the movie from the cast and crew goofing around to when things go wrong. It’s definitely not for everyone but if you enjoy movies and like this one then you’ll enjoy Full Tilt Boogie. | The movie title "Full Tilt Boogie," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.1 from 190 reviewers.

4 | No one was like Hendrix | This movie is part documentary part concert footage. The start is the documentary part with some background information on Hendrix before it gets to Monterey. The main take away from the film is what a performer Hendrix was. He plays part of Wild Thing with his guitar behind his back! He goes crazy with the feedback and the tremlo bar. Of course he famously lit his guitar on fire. It’s like part sex act part religious ceremony. It’s like nothing that came before. They have some crowd shots afterward and people are in shock.

5 | Amazing Noir about the underbelly of LA and characters seeking redemption | LA Confidential is an amazing modern Film Noir. It captures the best elements of the original genre. It covers three policeman and a prostitute who represents different aspect of the problems with Los Angeles in the 1950s when the city symbolized the California Dream. That’s the theme of the film, the corruption and violence of the City of the Angels.<br /><br />The four main characters are Officer Bud White (Russell Crowe), Officer Jack Vincennes (Kevin Spacey), Lieutenant Ed Exley (Guy Pearce), and Lynn Bracken (Kim Basinger). White was a violent cop who believed there was nothing wrong with abusing suspects as shown by his first scene where he beats up a man who was beating his wife. Vincennes was wrapped up in the fame of Hollywood to the detriment of his job. He was a consultant on a TV show Badge of Honor and thought that would lead him into the industry. He was also corrupt and took bribes from Sid Hudgens (Danny DeVito) to arrest celebrities so that Hudgens could write about them in his tabloid. Exley was self-centered and ambitious and would do anything to rise up the ranks. When some Mexicans were arrested and beaten by the cops he ratted on them so that he could get a promotion to be a lieutenant and detective. Finally, Lynn Bracken moved from Arizona to Los Angeles in the hopes of getting into the movies. When that failed she became a prostitute. She symbolized the lost dreams of thousands who came to the city and the limited opportunities for women after World War II when they were expected to just be housewives and not strive for more. All of these characters would come together and seek redemption for their personal sins to solve a crime involving the powerful in LA.<br /><br />The movie touched on many of the tropes of classic Film Noir. The dangerous woman aka the Femme Fatale was Bracken. The main character up against an impenetrable system is portrayed by three policeman investigating their case. Noir also liked to focus upon the underbelly of America and the three cops find out there is a racket involving prostitution, organized crime, drugs, and land development in Los Angeles. The ending is also very interesting because it showed that those who ran LA were more interested in protecting their image than actually exposing the crimes and misdemeanors of the city, another common theme of Noir.<br /><br />Overall, the movie had great characters. A very engaging story that had twists and turns, plus some action to boot. There have been many attempts at Noirs since its heyday in the 1940s and 50s with very uneven results. LA Confidential stands head and shoulders above all of those as a standout release. | The movie title "L.A.

3 | Crooks talking about the criminal lifestyle | A speech by President Obama talking about the change and promise he’ll bring to America plays as Scoot McNairy walks through a wasted urban environment with empty lots and abandoned buildings. That sets the mood for this crime drama. It’s noting that the United States is not what it always claims or believes. There’s an underbelly to society which the film will focus upon.<br /><br />The story is about McNairy and Ben Mendelsohn robbing a local mobster Ray Liotta and the aftermath as James Gandolfini and Brad Pitt are sent out to find and kill them.<br /><br />You would think Liotta would play his usual tough guy mafioso but he turns out to be a punching bag. McNairy and Mendelsohn are hapless small-timers way over their head. Pitt and Gandolfini make an odd couple. The main thing they do is talk about their criminal lifestyle from jobs they did to women they slept with. The best part might be Pitt’s monologue about America at the end. Overall, good but not great. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.2 from 2198 reviewers.

The theme is that people need to be in harmony with the environment a message that has been part of Asian art for centuries.

5 | Feel the power of the black church and let the gospel embrace you | I have Aretha’s Amazing Grace album but it was fantastic to finally see the performance live that was the basis of the record. What’s crazy is that it took place in a small black church in Los Angeles where not many people even attended (you can see empty seats in the back) and yet it was such a beautiful and moving concert. If you’ve never seen the power of the African American church this will be an eye opener. If you do then you feel right at home as the Gospel embraces you. That hits you right at the start as Reverend James Cleveland welcomes the choir and they sing as they walk to their seats.

3 | Rudy Ray Moore meets Lucifer | This was another Rudy Ray Moore film. All his movies followed the same formula. He gets to do some of his act which featured funny stories. He got beautiful women. There were some fight scenes. On top of all that was a funky soundtrack with at least one performance by a band. This one however had more straight comedy such as the beginning where Moore is born as a full grown boy and tries to beat up the doctor that delivered him. The story itself is about some club owners trying to prevent Moore from doing his show at a rival club which eventually leads him to Lucifer.

3 | Not bad as a monster action flick | In 2019 they decided to reboot Hellboy. The fact that it did not include director Guillermo del Toro nor actor Ron Perlman meant it had a tough act to follow. The result was a very good monster action movie. The theme of the film was Hellboy and his compatriots dealing with his monstrous past. One of his team members thinks Hellboy should be killed after their mission because his inherent evil will eventually come out, while Hellboy himself questions his role as a monster slayer when he is a beast himself.<br /><br />The movie did a good job with the special effects and fights which was obviously important in a story like this. Hellboy’s friend was turned into a vampire luchador wrestler, there were giants to be slain, and a giant house with legs where the Baba Yaga witch lived to name just a few. Those played on the horror and fantasy genres.<br /><br />What failed was the one liner jokes. Those mostly fell flat.<br /><br />The theme of this movie was similar to the original two about Hellboy having to come to terms with his origins. As much as it tried, it was not the dark monster movie of the original nor the fantasy tale of the second. That being said, it wasn’t as bad as many critics made it out to be. It did prove to be a good action movie.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.2 from 15108 reviewers.

3 | Hip Hop Blaxploitation | Paid In Full is like a Hip Hop Blaxploitation film. It’s about the rise and fall of Wood Harris as a 90s drug dealer in New York City. The story is very familiar but has its own twists and turns. One is that Harris play his character very unassuming. He’s always hunched over like he’s never quite sure of himself. It’s like he’s trying to hide and not stand out. Even when he made it he didn’t want to bring too much attention himself especially with violence because he knew that only meant trouble.

4 | Still holds up as a funny comedy since I saw it as a kid | Airplane was a childhood favorite that I saw several times in a movie theater when it came out. I wanted to see whether it could still make me laugh. It did.<br /><br />The premise of the movie is that it is a spoof of the disaster movies that were popular in the 1970s. During a flight several passengers and the entire crew get sick off of the fish dinner. They have to find someone to fly and land the plane.<br /><br />The film definitely delivers with the comedy. During the opening credits there are two voices on the intercom making announcements at an airport about white zones are for passenger drop offs only and no stops are allowed in the red. Then they start arguing over the zones and then start throwing insults at each other. When the plane is about to take off JJ Walker makes a guest appearance and checks the oil under the planes hood like it’s a car. Afterward Kareem Abdul Jabbar walks into the cockpit as the co-pilot. A kid later recognizes him but he denies he’s a basketball player until the boy tells him how much his dad doesn’t like his play. Kareem grabs the boy and says he’s been criticized ever since he was at UCLA and the kid’s dad should try running up and down the court with Bill Walton. The style of the story was to lay down one joke after another in rapid succession especially witty word play like when a stewardess tells a doctor surely he could do something. The doctor replies, “Yes I can and stop calling me Shirley.” That doesn’t mean everything works, but there are so many it will get you laughing. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 10849 reviewers.

2 | My least fav Zatoichi with more melodrama than usual | Adventures Of Zatoichi was the 9th release in the franchise.<br /><br />The story is typical of the series. Zatoichi ends up standing up for the lower people in society this time a group of performers who are being exploited by a Yakuza boss who is working for the local intendent. There’s also a woman who needs help. These are three of the most important elements of every Zatoichi film, maidens in distress, Yakuza, and corrupt officials. Add to that gambling, a ronin (masterless samurai), and some swordplay and you get your regular Zatoichi story.<br /><br />Despite that Adventures of Zatoichi tends more towards melodrama than drama-action and doesn’t stack up to others in the Zatoichi series.<br />C | The movie title "Zatoichi the Blind Swordsman, Vol. 9 - Adventures of Zatoichi [DVD]," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.8 from 99 reviewers.

3 | Revenging angel story goes as predicted | Peppermint is about a woman’s thirst for revenge. Jennifer Garner as Riley North was an average housewife until a gang gunned down her family. The justice system failed to prosecute the people responsible. She disappeared afterward, got off the grid, trained herself and returned to the scene of the crime to exact her vengeance.<br /><br />There’s nothing special about the movie. It plays out as you would expect. She gets going killing gangsters, faces setbacks, and struggles to the finish line. That being said the action sequences are good and she even turns out to be a defender of LA’s Skid Row which is a large homeless encampment. Not bad overall, but nothing to write home about either.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 20130 reviewers.

3 | Kids version of Godzilla only for the true fans | Godzilla vs Gigan was one of the last original Godzilla movies released in 1972. There were only three more films in the franchise before Toho closed down the big lizard for a decade. Like most of these movies the story revolves around aliens attempting to take over the Earth. This time they are building a children’s amusement park, which hides the base that they are building, plus two space monsters Gigan and Ghidorah.<br /><br />By this time Godzilla was basically a children series. The main character draws children’s manga. There’s also two horrible scenes where Godzilla and Anguirus talk to each other that will make you cringe. They used two models of Godzilla for the film. One looks ridiculous because the eyes are too big and makes it look like a doll. They also relied upon models too much and when Gigan and Ghidorah are flying to the Earth they do cirles which looks really bad. That being said, the main Godzilla and Ghidorah suits looks good for the final battle.<br /><br />Basically, if you’re a Godzilla fan this will bring back memories but also some WTF moments as well.<br />C | The movie title "Godzilla Vs.

4 | 2 great performances by Hanks and Abdi as the tension keeps building in this pirate drama | Captain Phillips is based upon a true story of a cargo ship that was taken by Somali pirates. The movie has some very good writing because it keeps the tension up and even builds upon it. You would think once the pirates show up the story couldn’t do much more with it but it does. It’s also not all from the American crew’s perspective. They try to give a little look into why the Somalis turned into pirates and they get a lot of dialogue as well.<br /><br />The two standout performers were Barkhad Abdi as the pirate captain Abduwali and Tom Hanks as Phillips. Abi plays his part cool, constantly re-assuring Hanks that everything will be fine when he’s actually trying to talk himself into believing that. Hanks really shined at the very end. He really portrayed someone in shock and suffering from trauma after his experience.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 15618 reviewers.

3 | Just a continuation of the 1st Child's Play | Child’s Play was a really good horror film which of course meant it was going to be turned into a franchise. Child’s Play 2 wasn’t bad. It maintained the suspense of the original as Chucky comes back to try to find Andy otherwise his soul will be trapped within the doll for eternity.<br /><br />As usual Chucky is focused upon killing all the adults that get in his way to snatching Andy. There’s some comedy thrown in as well such as when Chucky takes his classwork and writes some profanity on it so Andy gets in trouble with his teacher.<br /><br />That being said there’s nothing original about the movie.

4 | Another great interpretation of JRR Tolkien by Peter Jackson except for the last movie | When Peter Jackson returned to the work of JRR Tolkien he again decided to make it a trilogy even though the Hobbit was only one book. Like the Lord of the Rings each one of the films had a different theme. An Unexpected Journey as about Bilbo being talked into leaving the shire and going on an adventure to help a group of Dwarves reclaim their home. The Desolation of Smaug was about Bilbo's courage that he found on his quest. The final movie the Battle of the Five Armies was about the spoils of war and how it corrupted all.<br /><br />The first two movies are by far the best. The cast of characters, the action, etc. were all top notch and were right up there with the Lord of the Rings. The Battle of the Five Armies however turned out to just be about the war and the plot suffered as a result.<br /><br />There were also some tie ins with the Lord of the Rings. An evil menace called the Necromancer turns out to be Sauron the force of evil in both movie series. Legolas also shows up for the last two releases even though he wasn't in the book.<br /><br />Overall this is still a great collection just wished they'd made a better ending with the third film.<br />C | The movie title "Hobbit Trilogy (DVD)," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.9 from 9402 reviewers.

3 | Corruption in the police and how the system protects them | The cast of characters is one of the most interesting parts of Q&A. Nick Nolte is a corrupt cop involved in all kinds of dirty deeds. He just exudes sliminess. Timothy Hutton is told to investigate Nolte because he’s a young novice who New York’s leadership believes will just rubber stamp things but he’s got a conscience. Luis Guzzman is always a pleasure to see. He’s a detective with an attitude but also integrity. Armand Assante plays a gangster who looks like Robert De Niro when he played the Devil in Angel Heart. There are more and they are all important in this character driven crime drama about corruption, the police and mobsters. It is one of many that shows the dark side of the police and how the system protects them rather than expose how things really work. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 383 reviewers.

4 | Despite some flaws still best Iraq War movie made | There were a number of movies about the U.S. war in Iraq none of which really worked. The Hurt Locker was the first one that really succeeded. It focuses upon Jeremy Renner as Sergeant William James who works in bomb disposal unit. James is an adrenaline junkie who thrives off of the danger of disarming bombs. That leads to a number of harrowing experiences which endangers his team of Sergeant J.T. Sanborn (Anthony Mackie) and Specialist Owen Eldridge (Brian Geraghty). Their first day out together for example, they receive word of an improvised explosive device (IED) in the middle of a street and Sgt James decides to investigate it by himself rather then send a drone down to look at it which was the usual modus operandi. While walking towards the site a taxi cab runs through the U.S. perimeter and almost runs over James. He pulls out his revolver leading to a stand off in an already tense situation. When James finally finds the IED it turns out to be 7 artillery shells all connected together, which provides a really dramatic shot as he pulls the shells from the ground.<br /><br />The reason why Hurt Locker worked was because it didn’t try to comment on the causes of the war. It wasn’t a moral tale about the conflict. Rather it simply focused upon the comradery, conflicts, and danger the three soldiers faced.<br /><br />That being said there are some elements that are really horrible. For instance, James believes an Iraqi boy he met was killed by insurgents. He gets so upset he goes into Baghdad seeking revenge. This is where he meets an Iraqi family which is supposed to provide the Iraqi perspective. He then runs back to his base. Baghdad is a city of 7 million people. The situation is just completely unbelievable.<br /><br />Even with the problems Hurt Locker was still a good war movie overall.<br />C | The movie title "The Hurt Locker," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 6172 reviewers.

Here is a brief synopsis of the title : War is a drug. Nobody knows that better than Staff Sergeant James, head of elite squad of soldiers tasked with disarming bombs in the heat of combat. To do this nerve-shredding job, it's not enough to be the best: you have to thrive in a zone where the margin of error is zero, think as diabolically as a bomb-maker, and somehow survive with your body and soul intact. Powerfully realistic, action-packed, unrelenting and intense, The Hurt Locker has been hailed by critics as "an adrenaline-soaked tour de force" (A.O. Scott, The New York Times) and "one of the great war movies." (Richard Corliss, Time). | B00275EGWY |
3 | Too much talking! Not enough Hendrix! | This mixes live sessions The Jimi Hendrix Experience recorded for BBC Radio and TV with interviews with people from the BBC. There are actually more interviews then music unfortunately! One of the most interesting things to be gained from all the talking was that BBC Radio could only play so many records because the musicians union and other constituencies demanded that live music be played as well. That allowed the station to record bands like The Experience. I just wish I could hear them play more. The best part was a live recording on BBC TV when Jimi starts off with a big improvised intro to Hey Joe and then unexpectedly plays Cream’s Sunshine of Your Love which the director did not want them to do. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of None from None reviewers.

4 | He plays a drunkard to take down corruption in his clan | A new magistrate for a clan shows up and his nickname is Dora-Heita (Koji Yakusho) which stands for someone who likes to drink, party, and womanize. In fact, that’s just for show because he’s out to uncover the corruption rife within the clan. Making everyone believe he’s incompetent is part of his plan so that the top officials won’t take him seriously and the Yakuza (gangster) bosses will think he’s just another corrupt magistrate. Specifically he was sent back to the fief to clean up a district called Horisoto known for illegality, which the ruling officials all turn a blind eye to. Dora-Heita therefore is not your traditional samurai flick. Instead, it’s more like a police procedural as Dora-Heita investigates Horisoto and its connection to the clan.<br /><br />The uniqueness of the story comes from the fact that it was written by Akira Kurosawa, Keisuke Kinoshita, Masaki Kobayashi, and Kon Ichikawa that also directed the film. The four formed a production company to release their own films, but it flopped. Dora-Heita was one of their only collaborations that hit the screen, and that wasn’t until 2000 because it took that long to get the financing.<br /><br />Just because it’s a non-traditional samurai movie doesn’t mean there’s no action. Dora-Heita gets to throw around some Yakuza and samurai that try to stop his work, plus there’s a giant battle at the end. Really though, the highlight is to watch him play all the different sides with his drunkard party act.<br />C | The movie title "Dora-Heita [DVD]," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 11 reviewers.

2 | Disappointed Too much melodrama instead of horror | Black Sunday is a classic 60s horror film marking the directorial debut of Mario Bava. The story focuses upon awakening an old witch played by Barbara Steele. The occult elements surrounding her are well done but then the story has too much melodrama which dilutes the strength of the story. One moment a long dead lord is walking and the next Steele who also plays a princess is worrying about her sick father. A possessed professor shows up and then they switch to romantic music and a young man longing after Steele. Why can’t a horror movie just be about horror?

3 | Some interesting parts but I'm tired of watching talking head after talking head | I love Richard Pryor but it really stretches my patience to watch these traditional documentaries with one talking head after another interspersed with archival footage and photos. Thank God they showed some skits by Pryor. That’s the main highlight of I Am Richard Pryor. You have to see the man to understand him. One of the most interesting parts was how bad the comedy film Live on Sunset Strip was.

3 | Rich people think they're above the law | Billionaire Boys Club is about Ansel Elgort and Taron Egerton chasing the American Dream by bilking their wealthy friends for money in get rich quick schemes. These types of stories bring people in because everyone in the U.S. wants to get rich but to me it’s just a lesson on the hubris and excess of the elite in the country. They think they’re above the law and people that want to play with them come to believe the same.

They shack up together and Shannon lets his paranoid infect Judd into believing that their apartment is infested with bugs and that a government conspiracy is after them. They go to extreme measures to protect themselves which leads to suspense, drama and madness. Judd and Shannon are both great in their roles. Judd is convincing as a woman dealing with her pain while Shannon has always specialized in weirdness.

4 | Reminder that Japanese Americas fought in WWII while their families were interned by their govt | I had to watch Go For Broke! because it features six real veterans of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team from World War II. The 442nd was one of two Army units made up of Japanese Americans who volunteered for combat while their families were being held in internment camps because the government was racist and didn’t believe Japanese Americans were loyal citizens during the war. The unit became the most highly decorated in Army history. There are plenty of other Asian American extras in this film as well. That makes Go For Broke! very special because Asians are still hardly represented in Hollywood and here you have a huge number of them.<br /><br />The importance of the film is laid out right at the beginning. Val Johnson plays Lt. Michael Grayson. He goes to see his commanding officer (CO) and says he wants a transfer. His CO asks if that’s because of the kind of troops he’s working with. Grayson says he doesn’t mind working with Japs. His CO corrects him that there are no Japs in the army, they are Nissei, second generation Japanese Americans, and they come from every state and they are all U.S. citizens. He even informs him of some of the slang used in the unit like Haole, which is from Hawaii and refers to whites. Later Grayson questions a captain about the loyalty of the troops and again the lieutenant is informed that these are all Americans, and he needs to change his attitude. Later on Grayson has the roles reversed when in France he confronts a friend over calling his troops Japs. These are powerful scenes. It’s one thing if Grayson was told about this from a Japanese American, because he could dismiss it as coming from a “Jap.” Being told off by white men gives it added importance because whites are more likely to listen to other whites. It also showed that the army which backed this movie was trying to make up for some of the country’s wrongs.<br /><br />When the movie moves to the troops it showed the diversity of Japanese American experiences. They talk about discrimination against Japanese, helping out their families back in the camps, etc. Two of them talk about how they volunteered for the army to prove that they were good Americans. This was an attempt to humanize the soldiers, and show the sacrifices they made and problems they suffered during the war.<br /><br />The rest of the movie covers the 442nd’s deployment to Europe. Unfortunately for a war movie there’s not much combat. Instead the film focuses upon the soldiers and their day to day activities like marching, etc. The fighting scenes are few and far between.<br /><br />Despite that this is a very important movie. To see so many Asian Americans in a 1950s Hollywood film is a rarity. To tell the public about the contribution these soldiers made to the war effort and the constant reminders against anti-Asian racism had even more relevance.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.4 from 327 reviewers.

4 | My fav of the 2 Friday sequels. | With Next Friday Ice Cube went for a straight comedy. That’s what he did with Friday After Next but made it even better. Ice Cube and Mike Epps plus Cube’s family all returned for a Christmas story. They had to deal with Rickey Smiley as a Santa thief and getting their rent money. The best parts however were stolen by Katt Williams as a pimp/entrepreneur and Terry Crews as a guy who just got out of prison. Out of the two Friday sequels this is my favorite. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.8 from 10268 reviewers.

3 | Burt Reynolds is thrown into prison and forced to play football with a bunch of misfits | Burt Reynolds is a former disgraced NFL football star that gets thrown in prison. The warden wants him to help with the guards’ football team. Reynolds is put in charge of creating a team out of the inmates with him as quarterback to play the guards.<br /><br />The movie focuses upon the misfits that Reynolds finds in prison. There’s Richard Kiel who played Jaws in James Bond movies who is literally a giant. Robert Tessier was a killer that even the guards were afraid of.<br /><br />There are plenty of humorous moments like when Tessier punches Kiel in the face during a practice instead of tackling him and breaks his nose and when Kiel clotheslines one of the guards in the game and breaks his collarbone.<br /><br />Finally, the football game proves to be pretty good entertainment as well.<br /><br />Overall this makes The Longest Yard one of Reynolds better films.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 803 reviewers.

4 | 3 more Yakuza films by Fukasaku which are fun but not as good as original Battles Without Honor | Kinju Fukasaku was the greatest Yakuza (gangster) film director in Japan. In 1973 he dropped his five part Battles Without Honor and Humanity which was a game changer in the genre for its realistic style and portrayal of how blood thirsty the gangs were constantly feuding, fighting, and leaving a slew of dead bodies behind them. The series was so popular that Toei convinced him to make a spinoff The New Battles For Honor and Humanity. This box set includes all three films from that franchise in both blu-ray and DVD format plus a slick book going over the movies.<br /><br />The movies themselves are a bit up and down. The First New Battles Without Honor And Humanity is a spinoff of the original series. It focuses upon the Yamamori gang in Hiroshima again as its boss Yoshio Yamamori (Nobu Kaneko) is in a power struggle with his lieutenant Naotake Aoki (Tomisaburo Wakayama). Bunta Sugarawa returned as the star from the previous series playing Makio Miyoshi who is stuck in the middle between these two powerful figures. The Yamamori were one of the main gangs throughout the original Battles Without Honor and Humanity.<br /><br />The second film The Boss’s Head was an original plot focusing upon Bunta Sugawara as Shuji Kuroada. He was a freelancer, or a stray dog as they refer to him in the film, who carried out an assassination for the Odwara family and went to prison for seven years for it. When he got out he expected to be compensated, which leads to splits and betrayal within the family.<br /><br />The last release The Last Days of the Boss was the weakest of the three. A couple ends up dead which leads to a larger and larger gang war in Osaka. It’s never explained why these murders would lead to such a conflagration, and it appears this was simply a way to justify all the violence that would follow. Bunta Sugawara was again the star as a ship worker and gambling house owner who gets dragged into the fight.<br /><br />All three movies are enjoyable, although not as good as the original Battles Without Honor and Humanity releases. They all featured Fukasaku’s theme that the Yakuza were not an honorable group as they were often portrayed in other films. Instead they were greedy, petty, and would turn on each other for a minute for status and money. That led to constant fights and violence which was portrayed in a bloody fashion by Fukasaku. | The movie title "New Battles Without Honor & Humanity (6-Disc Limited Edition) [Blu-ray + DVD]," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 39 reviewers.

4 | Commentary upon the Cold War in America | This was the 1970 sequel to the highly successful Planet of the Apes. Like the first film this one continued to comment upon American society. The theme was inspired by the Cold War and emphasized the destructive power of conflicts.<br /><br />The story begins with the gorillas who are the warrior class in the ape society wanting to go into the Forbidden Zone with a huge army to defeat whatever threats were there. They are opposed by some chimps who want peace. This was a reflection of America in the 1960s-70s which was divided over the Vietnam War.<br /><br />What they find is a colony of human survivors living underground who worship an atomic bomb. They threaten to use it against the apes. In the first Planet of the Apes film Taylor (Charlton Heston) found out that humanity had destroyed itself in a nuclear war eventually leading to the emergence of the ape civilization. The story shows that humanity learned nothing from the past and was willing to destroy everything all over again. This related to the Cold War which threatened world destruction if the U.S. and Soviet Union ever went to war.<br /><br />Beneath the Planet of the Apes was a good follow up. The only drawback was that some of the make-up wasn’t as good. Many of the apes for instance looked like they just had plastic masks.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.4 from 1154 reviewers.

3 | Humilitary and understanding amongst fish | The story is a very simply one about humility and accepting others. Will Smith plays a fish that becomes famous and it goes straight to his head. Jack Black on the other hand is a vegetarian shark who just wants people to accept him as he is. There are plenty of funny moments. The big surprise was that Robert De Niro and Martin Scorsese did voices for two of the main characters.

4 | Good mummy offering by Hammer | The Mummy’s Shroud was one of Hammer’s later offerings on the Egyptian monster. It starts off with the background story of the young son of the pharaoh Kah To Bey played by Toolsie Persaud who was forced into exile when his father was killed. He and his party travelled the deserts for days until finally succumbing to the elements. One of his servants Prem played by Dickie Owen survived. The story then flashes to the 1920s when an archeology team attempts to find the tomb of Kah To Bey. Along the way, Claire, played by Maggie Kimberly warns that some of them won’t make it back. That takes place and of course when they eventually find the mummy there’s a curse, which takes its toll on all involved. The movie does a good job playing on tensions, and never falls into campiness. | The movie title "The Mummy's Shroud [Blu-ray]," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 301 reviewers.

5 | Seeing the cast again was like going home | First of all it was a blast to see the original cast back together again. The first of them that you see is Oha played by Paul Bates and it immediately makes you chuckle. Then a McDowell’s is opening in Zamunda with Louie Anderson and John Amos and it’s like you’re home again.<br /><br />The story is about Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall finding Murphy’s son that he fathered unknowingly when he was in Queens during the first movie so that they can fend off the threat from a neighboring country run by Wesley Snipes. Of course the trip back to America has a mix of the old and the new. For instance, they go to the barbershop and then meet Murphy’s son’s baby mama played by Leslie Jones. Then the story becomes original as they go travel to Zamunda and become one big dysfunctional family. There are plenty of jokes and funny situations along the way. In fact, I was laughing at the intro just seeing Zamunda again. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 3.7 from 22805 reviewers.

4 | Phantasm franchise still strong in the 3rd film | Phantasm is one of the great horror franchise of all time that seems to be forgotten by many today. Lord of the Dead featured Reggie (Reggie Bannister) still trying to escape the Tall Man (Angus Scrimm) his evil dwarves and the spheres of death.<br /><br />Even though this was the third in the franchise it still provided some great images. There’s a sphere emerging from a woman’s head and a razor blade frisbee.

Glenn Close and John Malkovich represent the idle rich who come up with a plan to destroy the good standing of two women Uma Thurman and Michelle Pfeiffer. One is known as a strictly moral and religious woman so sleeping with her would be a conquest. The other is meant to get back at a former lover. The draw is to watch their maneuvering, their sly talk, what they are willing to do, etc. There’s also the game of wits between Close and Malkovich.

3 | Not as good as Toho's more famous Kaiju monsters | Dogora was another Toho sci-fi film directed by the great Ishiro Honda who was behind the original Godzilla films, Mothra, Frankenstein Conquers the World, The War of the Gargantuas and other Japanese Kaiju flicks. Dogora is one of his lesser known productions in the West. The story revolves around a large amoeba like creature named Dogora that invades Japan from outer space.<br /><br />The story is weird because it connects Dogora with a gang in Tokyo. They try to do jobs and Dogora shows up. Eventually the film gets to the usual Toho scenes of a giant monster destroying things in Japan while the military fruitlessly attempts to stop it with plenty of miniatures, explosions, etc. Unfortunately since Dogora was an amoeba like creature he just floated over the Earth and sucked up resources instead of getting to crash through everything which made it not as exciting as Toho’s better known Kaiju.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.0 from 97 reviewers.

5 | They took Wick's heart and he extracted his pound of flesh from them | The first John Wick was the most realized out of them all. That’s because it spent the most time developing Wick as a character and laying out his motivations while the subsequent releases sacrificed plot for action. On the surface the film looks like a simple story of revenge when Wick loses his car and dog to Iosef Tarasov, the son of a Russian mafia boss, Viggo Tarasov. It goes deeper than that however as Wick was trying to start a new life and give up the assassins world for his wife. She died leaving him with deep sorrow. That’s shown when she sends him a dog from the grave and he breaks down crying. What the Russians took from him then wasn’t just material things like a car, they took his heart. That’s why he was so unrelenting in exacting his pound of flesh.<br /><br />Wick actually faced a dilemma returning to the world of violence. When he goes to The Continental an exclusive hotel for assassins he’s warned by the owner Winston that if he returned to their world he wouldn’t be able to escape. All he tried to build with his wife would be destroyed.<br /><br />What follows next is Wick’s taking apart of Viggo’s organization to get to his son. This is why people watch Wick films. To see the action sequences and the innovative ways they can come up with him killing people. Wick was like a well oiled machine when it came to taking lives.

3 | Chinese standing up to the Japanese once more | Sing Chen is an outlaw facing down the police. What does he do? Slicks back his hair, breaks the comb and then beats up the cops! What a start to Bloody Fists.<br /><br />The story is about Chinese nationalism as a group of Japanese Karate experts beat up the local Kung Fu masters and Chen is the only one who can stand up to him. This was obviously inspired by Bruce Lee’s Fist Of Fury. Chen does the hair things several more times and it’s cool every time.<br /><br />Good and fast action.

2 | Pretty underwhelmed by The Purge | You could discuss the class issues of the Purge about how the rich mostly hunt down the poor during the night of violence or about the moral question of whether to join the Purge or not, but that would distract from the real point of the film which is to show violence. I have to say I did appreciate the fact that they did try to attach some message to the movie otherwise it would just be senseless. To tell you the truth the writing is kind of bad. For example, there are two kids that randomly walk off while the family is threatened. I didn’t like the ending either.

4 | Bryan Cranston shines in this top notch movie about money laundering | Bryan Cranston walks into this movie with a white and black biker leather jacket and a mustache. I couldn’t help but giggle. It’s also just a hint at the transformation Cranston will go through as he is a Customs Agent going undercover to try to bust the Madellin drug cartel. The story is also not your usual cops vs drug dealers tale because it’s about going after the money not the drugs. It’s a thrilling story of twists and turns and lies and betrayal and death. Cranston of course shines. John Leguizamo is his partner in crime and is always great to see on screen playing off his tough guy character with some jokes. Benjamin Bratt is the main cartel member who is completely debonair and never seems like he is part of a drug mafia. Finally there are a number of supporting characters like Olymbia Dukakis, Joe Gilgun, Amy Ryan, and Yul Vazquez who all get their moments. Definitely a top notch crime drama. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.4 from 6272 reviewers.

3 | Story is just a vehicle for Bruce Lee to beat people up but that's also what's good about it | The Big Boss was Bruce Lee’s first major film and was filmed in Thailand. Bruce plays Cheng Chao-an who goes to Thailand to stay with family and work. It turns out the ice factory that employees him is smuggling drugs. The story is very loose and simply acts as a vehicle for the fight scenes which happen throughout the movie.<br /><br />One thing the film did well was not have Cheng immediately jump into the action. He actually promised his mother he wouldn’t get into any trouble. That means the first few fight scenes Cheng is just an observer. Of course when he finally does get involved he stands out from everyone else. His speed and fluidity made everyone else look like amateurs on the screen. It’s no wonder the movie made Bruce Lee a star in Hong Kong.<br /><br />Of Lee’s five movies as a martial arts star Big Boss stands out as one of the better ones. Yes, the plot is thin but the fight sequences are very good and is much better than Enter the Dragon or Game of Death.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 978 reviewers.

4 | Great 60s sci-fi | An important scientist on miniaturization has suffered brain damage in an attack by communists. The military needs to save him before he dies so they use a secret miniaturization process to shrink down a ship and a crew of doctors to be inserted inside the scientist’s body to save him. They only have one hour to do the procedure and of course things go wrong. That’s the plot of Fantastic Voyage.<br /><br />The movie is a great mid-60s sci fi tale. The effects are good and believable showing that they had a good budget. The main character Grant played by Stephen Boyd initially didn’t want to be shrunk down, and when they are Dr. Michaels played by Donald Pleasence has a panic attack adding some realism to the story. There’s plenty of suspense. In case you missed it the film also features a young Raquel Welch. This all makes Fantastic Voyage a very enjoyable movie. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 2269 reviewers.

5 | Jonathan Gold tried to explain the people of LA through its food | City of Gold is about famed Los Angeles Times food critic Jonathan Gold and his view of the city’s food scene. Gold championed small and ethnic restaurants and the different cultures and people they represented. He would often drive around, pull into a strip mall and pick a place to eat at.<br /><br />One example right at the start is Antojitos Carmen which was started by a woman who began with a food cart but when the city cracked down on their trade and closed them up she found an empty shop and opened her own restaurant with her family as the staff. Gold wrote about it and helped them expand their business while highlighting Carmen’s history in the food business from the street to a restaurant. As Gold would later say in the film one of the big revolutions in food criticism in the last few decades was diversity. Before papers would only review European restaurants. Now they review everything realizing that America is made up of all kinds of people like Carmen, not just western Europeans.<br /><br />The film also goes into Gold’s method. He didn’t claim to know everything about the food he ate and when it was something new he would often go again and again. He said his record was 17 times going to one place to try to discover everything he could about it. He also didn’t believe in the anonymous reviewer because eventually your identity would come out. He was often late with his pieces which would drive his editor mad. She said she felt like the responsible older sister and he was the younger genius brother she always had to stay on top of.<br /><br />The movie touches on his family, his early writing when he covered the LA rap scene in the 1980s-90s. How he was into classical music when he was a kid and then became a punk rock musician instead. By doing so it tries to fill out the man Jonathan Gold and not just his food writing.<br /><br />Unfortunately Gold isn’t with us anymore but this movie gives a little slice of his life. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 272 reviewers.

3 | Just as fun as the first | Wayne’s World 2 starts off right where the last one left off. Mike Myers gets into a Kung Fu fight with James Hong who plays Tia Carrere’s father.

4 | Great movie about family consequences and corruption in NYC | This is a really good movie about family, consequences and corruption. If you watch closely you’ll see James Caan trying to tell his nephew Mark Wahlberg not to work with Joaquin Phoenix but he ends up doing it anyways. That foreshadows the entire story which grows from two friends to the inner workings of New York City. The movie is also shot with very dark overtones and lots of shadow like a Film Noir. It helps set the mood for everything. The film makers took great care with the little things as well like a scene with Caan that harkened back to the Godfather which he starred in. Added to that is the dynamic between Wahlberg and Phoenix and you have a great expansive drama about New York. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.2 from 820 reviewers.

3 | A sci-fi cult classic about freeing the oppressed | Dune is a sci-fi cult classic. It was based upon a book of the same name by Frank Herbert. The story is about the struggle for freedom by the inhabitants of a planet called Arrakis also known as Dune which holds a spice called mélange that is used for space travel, to extend life, and expand people’s minds. It is the most important commodity in the galaxy and yet the inhabitants of Dune gain no profit from it and are in fact oppressed. Kyle MacLachlan plays Paul Altreides who is foreshadowed to free the people of Dune.<br /><br />One of the first things you notice is the unique narrative style. Trying to stick to the book much of the commentary is delivered via the thoughts of the main characters. Often times a person will say something and then their thoughts will be revealed.<br /><br />The story is interesting as well. There are plots, rivalries, and war between the House Harkonnen that wants Dune and the House Atreides, which controls it. That also creates an effective villain for the movie Baron Vladimir Harkonnen (Kenneth McMillan). He is thoroughly disgusting with a skin disease, always sweating and with a vile mannerism. Every movie like this needs a good bad guy to propel the conflict and story along.<br /><br />Dune is being remade so the general public is going to be re-introduced to it once again. Better to see the original before then because who knows how the re-make will turn out.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 16566 reviewers.
