4 | Despite main character being annoying the story overcame his shortcomings | Patrick McNamee’s dad was a Mod who died. He wants to go to Brighton a famous pilgrimage place for British Mods and scatter his ashes. He’s joined by Sacha Parkinson. It’s a coming of age story as McNamee has to grow up on the trip to Brighton.<br /><br />I have to say I really liked this movie despite McNamee’s character. He was so annoying because he appeared to have the emotional maturity of a 10 year old. Every time he and Parkinson stopped he tried to quit. Every time he heard anything negative he wanted to quit. I couldn’t stand it at times. Thankfully the story and Parkinson saved the film. It had scooters, it had some of the lore of Mods, McNamee and Parkinson find out interesting stories about his father and more. This is what made The Pebble and The Boy worthwhile. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.4 from 32 reviewers.

3 | Heist film w/corrupt cops and racist mafiosos | Across 110th Street was a heist film set in New York City. A bunch of crooks dress up like cops and rob the mafia. The movie splits between the investigation into the crime and the mob trying to get its money back and exact revenge. It featured Anthony Quinn as crooked New York Police Captain Mattelli, Yaphet Kotto as the straight laced Lieutenant Pope, Anthony Franciosa as the mob boss Nick D’Salvio, and Paul Benjamin as Jim Harris the head thief.<br /><br />The movie has a racial tone to it as well. The Italian mafia wants to make an example out of the thieves because they were black with the idea that their brutal murder would be a message to African Americans to stay in their place in Harlem and not challenge the mob. Also when D’Salvio goes to Harlem to talk to the black crime boss there he talks down to him telling him that he needs to know his place and he only has power because he works for the Italians.<br /><br />The tension in the movie comes from two sources. First, there’s the conflict between Cap Mattelli the bad cop and Lt. Pope the good cop, then there’s Harris and his crew who all screw up in one way or another. The result is a good but not great 1970s crime flick.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 148 reviewers.

3 | Perfect vehicle for Nicholas Cage to do his crazy act | This was a new take on the apocalypse when parents have an overwhelming urge to kill their children. This was the perfect vehicle for Nicolas Cage who plays a father because he gets to do his crazy act. In fact, he shows signs of losing it right from the start in these sudden fits of screaming and yelling. The funny part is when he and his wife try to kill their kids they’re so calm and collected about it. They even threw in a great twist of elderly parents chasing their adult kids who were chasing their own kids. The movie also was the perfect length and didn’t draw things out. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.2 from 1649 reviewers.

4 | This is a great feel-good film | This was a great feel good movie. It’s based upon a true story that I never heard of. John Hamm and Aasif Mandvi are struggling sports agents who decided to find some Indian cricket players they can convert into professional baseball pitchers. The film ebbs and flows with emotions from frustration to join and back again. When Hamm finally finds two prospects, Madhur Mittal and Suraj Sharma he’s told by his Indian helper Darshan Jariwala that he is not just dealing with a huge opportunity but responsibility as well because he is now in charge of two young men. That poses the dilemma of the film about whether Hamm who is always in a hurry and thinking about money and making deals, etc. can think about others. It’s what takes this from your usual sports film to something special. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 2297 reviewers.

5 | Marvel's 1st action-comedy with fantastic music to boot | The Guardians of the Galaxy would be a first for the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), it was an action comedy. This would later be taken up by the Ant Man series, but this was the first of its kind.<br /><br />It also featured James Gunn as director and co-writer. That was an interesting choice because he’d mostly been known for horror movies like the fantastic Slither. He and Nicole Perlman, his writing partner created a great cast of characters and a story featuring the creation of the Guardians of the Galaxy, their nemesis Ronan the Accuser from the Kree world, and brought Thanos more into the MCU by introducing his two daughters Gamora and Nebula.<br /><br />The movie would also be notable because it featured an amazing soundtrack of songs mostly from the 1970s. This was also a first. That was apparent right from the start when Peter Quill lands on the planet Morag to steal an Infinity Stone and starts singing along to Come and Get Your Love by Redbone. The song has an infectious beat and a singalong chorus that immediately caught the audience’s attention. That would be followed by hit after hit Like the Five Stairsteps’ O-o-h Child at the climax of the battle with Ronan.<br /><br />Anyway, the story focuses upon Ronan working for Thanos to recover an Infinity Stone. That goes wrong right off the bat when Quill steals it. Thanos’ daughter Gamora is then sent to recover it. Quill is in trouble as well as he double crosses his own group the Reavers, which brings in Rocket and Groot who are bounty hunters. They all get thrown in prison where they meet Drax the Destroyer. Together they form the Guardians who want to thwart Ronan and Thanos’ plans for the Infinity Stone. They go from planet to planet introducing new characters like the Collector and new world’s such as Xandar the home of the Nova Corps, which are all famous from Marvel comics.<br /><br />There’s plenty of action such as the huge battle at the end versus Ronan, as well as comedy. Quill and Rocket for instance are always at the center of jokes like when the former flips off the Nova Corps saying he was sorry he didn’t know how his finger worked. Drax plays the straight man but makes hilarious remarks as well such as when he says nothing goes over his head because his reflexes are so fast he would catch it. Groot who only says “I am Groot” also gets in on the laughs.<br /><br />Overall, this was some rip roaring fun, and would set the stage for future Marvel movies with both the characters, and its use of comedy. Definitely at the top end of MCU releases.<br />C | The movie title "Guardians of the Galaxy," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.8 from 52536 reviewers.

Here is a brief synopsis of the title : From Marvel, the studio that brought you the global blockbuster franchises of Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and The Avengers, comes a new team—the Guardians of the Galaxy. An action-packed, epic space adventure, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe. To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfits—Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon, Groot, a tree-like humanoid, the deadly and enigmatic Gamora and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when Quill discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last desperate stand—with the galaxy's fate in the balance.. | B00N1JQ452 |
5 | One of the greatest movies ever made! | I first saw The Third Man in college in a film class and I’ve been in love with it ever since.<br /><br />It has such a simple beginning. There’s a song being played on a zither, which will return again and again in the film. It’s funny because co-producer David O. Selznick, of Gone with the Wind fame, threatened to not release the movie if that song was used thinking it would never sell in America.<br /><br />The plot was based upon a Graham Greene book and he wrote the screen play as well. Greene was inspired by his relationship with the famous KGB spy Kim Philby who he worked with in British intelligence during WWII. The hero Holly Martins played by Joseph Cotton is naïve and well-meaning as Greene felt about himself early on in his life during the war and the villain Harry Lime played by Orson Wells is cunning and manipulative and represents Philby who betrayed Greene’s trust.<br /><br />The start of the film introduces the viewer to the setting, Vienna, Austria, just after World War II. The city would play an important role in the story, being as much a character as the actual actors with the war damage, its dark streets, and the sewers which would be in the climax. Since it was right after the war there was a black market, and there was murder. The first is important as well as nearly everyone in the movie is a schemer trying to survive in the postwar era. That actually made the movie a flop in Austria as the natives felt the Third Man was an insult to their country. In later years, some in Vienna came to embrace it as there is a Third Man museum, a tour of the sewers, and the movie is played there every day at a movie theater.<br /><br />Into this fray comes the lead character Holly Martins (Joseph Cotton). He’s a babe in the woods compared to everyone he meets. He’s looking for his friend Harry Lime (Orson Welles) who at first is declared dead. Working the case are the British military led by Major Calloway (Trevor Howard). Along the way Martins falls for Lime’s girlfriend Anna (Alida Valli). What you get is part detective movie, part love story, part grafters.<br /><br />The filming and production is incredible. Half the movie is shot in angles to portray what an upside down world the actors are in. The shadows and shade are also highlighted like a great film noir even though this isn’t part of that genre. The producers had to use huge amounts of lighting to create the contrasts on black and white film. They also watered down all the streets in the night scenes to give extra shine to the shots. Those all come together in the chase scene in the end that was filmed in Vienna’s drainage system.<br /><br />If you want to watch great film making watch The Third Man.<br />C | The movie title "The Third Man," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 3518 reviewers.

Here is a brief synopsis of the title : This classic noir mystery, from the team of Carol Reed and Graham Greene, is generally considered to be the best filmwork of both of these estimable talents. THE THIRD MAN features Joseph Cotten as Holly Martins, a pulp novelist who has come to post-WWII Vienna with the promise of work from his friend, Harry Lime (Orson Welles). When he finds that Lime has just been killed in a questionable car accident, he decides to remain in the city to investigate his friend's demise.Free upgrade to first class mail.. | B00005R1NC |
3 | Bernie Mac proves good at drama and comedy | Who decided to cast Bernie Mac as a baseball star? Mac probably took the part to show that he could do drama as well as comedy. Thankfully there are plenty of funny parts where Mac gets to use his mouth which was his greatest attribute. The serious parts worked as well. The dilemma of the movie came in two parts. First he came out of retirement to try to get 3000 hits could he do it at his age? The second was whether he could become a good teammate because before he was a prima donna that only cared about himself. You can guess how those worked out but it was still entertaining. Mac also got to get with Angela Bassett! | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 687 reviewers.

4 | Hunt is a force of nature out to break up the Syndicate | Rogue Nation basically followed the blueprint laid out in Ghost Protocol. For instance there’s a big start with Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) hanging off the side of a plane with some levity provided by Benji (Simon Pegg). Then Hunt goes all over the world for some action packed scenes. The movie introduced a new set of bad guys called the Syndicate which would play out into the next movie Fallout as well. My favorite scene isn’t actually the climax but when Hunt and William (Jeremy Renner) confront the head of British intelligence (Simon McBurney) using deception with the added bonus of a speech by CIA Director Hunley (Alec Baldwin) who describes Hunt as a force of nature.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 29571 reviewers.

4 | One of my fav Nicholas Cage roles about conmen and family bonding | The first rule of a conman is never to trust anyone. Nicholas Cage, his partner Sam Rockwell, and his newfound daughter Alison Lohman set off on one of their greatest cons. It’s also how Cage and Lohman bond. It’s so cute when he teaches her his trade by scamming an old lady! He also has all kinds of phobias and twitches and his little breakdowns are a sight to see. The ending is special as well. This might be my favorite Cage part because he plays such an oddball. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 1749 reviewers.

2 | Mindless action flick | This is a mindless action movie about Paul Walker trying to take down a drug cartel run by RZA in a near future Detroit. The only reason to watch it is the action sequences and some of them are too over the top. Once scene Walker is holding onto the spoiler in the back of car as if his knees and feet wouldn’t get all tore up. Another time he effortlessly pulls a steering wheel out of a van that he’s handcuffed to. To get the big sequence they were willing to sacrifice credibility.

1 | What a sordid and ridiculous plot this movie has | In the 1910s author Sax Rohmer created the character of Fu Manchu to exploit the racism against Asians in America. In the 1960s Christopher Lee played the character in five films with The Blood of Fu Manchu being the fourth. The movie is part exploitation (there are plenty of women in compromising positions), part racist stereotypes about Asians and Latins.<br /><br />The story revolves around Fu Manchu, assisted by Lin Tang (Tsai Chin), kidnapping ten women and infecting them with an ancient poison from the Amazons that they will then transfer to others with a deadly kiss. They are to kill Fu Manchu’s greatest opponents starting with his main nemesis Nayland Smith (Richard Greene). Smith had his own aide Dr. Petrie (Howard Marion-Crawford). The two were based off of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson and they acted almost exactly alike with Smith being a meticulous investigator using the smallest clues to unravel cases, while Petrie was his loyal, yet a bit bumbling ally.<br /><br />That would be a straight forward story, but instead the writers decided to focus upon an adventure in the Amazon that includes a bandit named Sancho Lopez (Richardo Palacios) that ambushes a group of Fu Manchu’s men. Fu decides to send one of his poisoned women after Lopez as a result. She’s supposed to be a dancer that can seduce the ruffian, but she ends up squirming around on the ground instead. Lopez himself looks ridiculous with a silly hat that’s too small for him. When his men rape and pillage it looks like a comedy play rather than a serious act of terror. Into this mix enters Smith and Petrie trying to find Fu Manchu. That makes for a completely absurd movie.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.2 from 117 reviewers.

There she stumbles upon a case where Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) was poisoning the environment and making people sick. It’s a classic story of corporate malfeasance.<br /><br />Eric Brokovich (Julia Roberts) and her boss Edward Masry (Albert Finney) start off as an odd couple. Brokovich starts investigating the case on her own and Masry isn’t interested and even fires her at first. She’s the driving force and does all the legwork until Masry jumps on board.<br /><br />The real pull of the story are the families that have been struck by all kinds of diseases due to PG&E. There’s one scene where Brokovich goes to see a family whose little girl has cancer and it pulls on your heart strings.

3 | Jarmusch is an acquired taste | When I was in college my best friend was really into Jim Jarmusch so we watched all his movies. I still remember Stranger Than Paradise from that period. For one, Eszter Balint shows up in New York City from Hungary and is blasting I Put A Spell On You by Screamin Jay Hawkins.<br /><br />I would say Jarmusch’s style was to try to capture the life of a character even when they’re not doing anything. Thus there are scenes like the main character John Lurie and his friend Richard Edson just sitting in a room, drinking a beer and not talking. Why would he include that? Because he’s just trying to show how absurd and pointless things can be. There’s also subtle comedic bits like when Edison sits in between Balint and her date at a movie theater and the date keeps on looking over like how did this happen to him.<br /><br />Jarmusch is definitely an acquired taste. It’s not for everyone because the stories move slowly and there are scenes where purposely nothing happens. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.3 from 198 reviewers.

4 | Learning what it means to be a knight | The Green Knight is a fable about what it means to be a knight. Dev Patel is repeatedly asked throughout the movie whether he is one and he replies no. He jumps to challenges without understanding them. He cowers in fear. He has carnal lust. He exhibits all kinds of other attributes which are not noble. The story is about him learning about his faults and their consequences. No there is no action as one might think. Yes it is very dark because it is attempting to recreate a medieval world where people lived by candle and firelight. That just sets the mood because it is a foreboding tale. I enjoyed it thoroughly although I was confused at first.

4 | Great thriller that avoids stereotypical scenes of most horror movies | Oculus follows the brother-sister duo of Kaylie and Tim. When Tim was 10 he killed his father for murdering his mother. He was finally released when he was an adult and the two tried to delve into what happened via an antique mirror their parents had. The story is told by flipping back and forth between the past and the present to explain the events in this thriller.<br /><br />The movie definitely sets the right mood from the start. That’s not done through gore or gotcha moments but rather building up tension via the mirror, flashbacks to the sibling’s parents and the two arguing with each other over the past. It eventually gets really weird as the Kaylie and Tim can’t tell reality from fantasy. There are some crazy scenes thrown in as well like how the dad chained up the mother in their bedroom. It all adds up to an excellent film that avoids the cliches of most horror movies.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.3 from 3526 reviewers.

5 | It's got laughts It's got tunes It's got thrills It's got action A Marvel heist film | During a high point of Ant-Man Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) tells his foe Darren Cross (Corey Stoll), “It was never just a heist.” In fact, that’s exactly what Ant-Man is, a superhero heist flick. It also borrowed heavily from the Guardians of the Galaxy formula. That meant it had a light mood, plenty of jokes and some great music.<br /><br />That’s shown in the opening scenes. First, Lang is in San Quentin prison and is getting the exit tradition of trying to knock out his friend who is really big. In the background Borombon by Camila Azuquita is playing with its catchy Salsa beat and chorus. Then he gets released and Shingalin en Panama also by Azuquita comes on. Lang gets picked up by his old cellmate Luis (Michael Pena). Lang asks how is he doing and he says his girlfriend left him, his mom died, and his dad got deported by he got his van. Lang says that with his education with a master’s degree he’s going to get a good job, take care of his daughter and never go back to prison. Luis warns him that life for ex-cons is hard. Next thing you know Lang is working at Baskin Robbins and gets fired when his boss finds out that he’s a convicted criminal. There couldn’t be a better start to Ant-Man.<br /><br />Luis actually steals almost every scene that he’s in. He gets into a flow when he starts talking going off on wild tangents and speaking a hundred words a minute. He is a great comedic foil for the story. Unexpectedly Michael Douglas also provides a continuous flow of sarcastic one liners mostly aimed at Lang throughout Ant-Man providing a lot of dry humor.<br /><br />What the actual plot comes down to is Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) recruits Lang and his friends Luis, Dave (T.I.), and Kurt (David Dastmalchian) to help him and his daughter Hope (Evangeline Lily) break into his company now run by Darren Cross and destroy his work on the Pym Particle which allows any object to be shrunk down like the Ant-Man. That’s how the film is in the heist genre because much of it is the planning and training for the break in. Lang for instance has to learn how to use the Ant-Man uniform and work with the ants along with being trained in martial arts. Cross actually goes mad from using the Pym Particle upon himself and becomes the Yellow Jacket. That’s actually a take-off of the Avengers comic where Hank Pym went temporarily insane and took on the Yellow Jacket persona.<br /><br />There are plenty of other Marvel Easter Eggs in the film like when Darren Cross is first introduced he said that the Ant-Man was tale to astonish. Tales to Astonish was the comic book that first introduced the Ant-Man character in 1959.<br /><br />Overall, Ant-Man is a great super hero romp. It’s got laughs. It’s got tunes. It’s got thrills. It’s got action. It’s one of the reasons why it’s one of my favorite Marvel releases.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 21376 reviewers.

1 | Got so bored stopped watching | I thought this was going to be a horror story but it’s actually about a dysfunctional family. There’s an abusive dad, an alienated mother, an arrogant brother, and a sister who is victimized. It’s also very slow and badly written. For instance in one scene there’s sinister background music and yet nothing happens. When something does it’s not even interesting. I don’t know why this was made into a film it could have very well been a made for TV movie.

1 | Felt cheated by this film | The story of Acceptable Loss is clouded by mystery and it doesn’t turn out to be a good thing. Tika Sumpter did something very controversial for the previous administration and is now a visiting lecturer at a university. Ben Tavassoli is stalking her. What’s the point of not saying what she did for instance? If it’s meant to keep the audience in suspense it doesn’t work. Instead it just felt like they weren’t getting on with the plot. Eventually I had to ask when was something going to happen because they were just doing the same thing over and over. They hint at what Sumpter did and Tavassoli is snooping around. Finally! After an hour they explain the decision Sumpter advocated for and yet it still wasn’t satisfactory. It got so bad I resented watching this movie for wasting my time. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.3 from 391 reviewers.

5 | Haunted by the pain and suffering caused by slavery | TV ghost hunting shows start off by talking about some violent crime that happened in a location that led to ghost sightings. If that was the criteria then most ghosts should be black and they should be found across the American South. Being haunted by a violent past is what Beloved is about, the movie adaptation of Toni Morrison’s famed book.<br /><br />It stars Oprah Winfrey who was raped when she was a slave and later lost her children. After the Civil War her house is haunted by a ghost which represents the pain of her lost ones and what African Americans went through. Danny Glover joins Oprah and her daughter Kimberly Elise despite the trouble. The happiness Glover tries to bring the two women is contrasted to the horror that’s in the house.<br /><br />The movie begins with the spirit terrorizing Oprah when she was a child and then the next scene shows what happened to her when she was enslaved and the ghost appears again destroying her kitchen. It really sets up the story and the mood for what comes next. It’s also just the start of some wild and haunting images in the film topped off by how Oprah lost her children which was inspired by a true story.<br /><br />Things aren’t all pain and suffering either. Elise and Beah Richards provide strength and spirituality showing the resilience of African Americans.<br /><br />Overall it’s a devastating film that impacts anyone who sees it. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 2713 reviewers.

3 | Attempt at making a new spy hero had mixed results | XXX is one of those movies you don’t want to think about because you would dismiss it right from the start. Instead, you should just try to enjoy the action. That’s because the premise is ridiculous. Vin Diesel plays Xander Cage an Internet star and stuntman who is picked by the National Security Agency’s (NSA) Augustus Gibbons (Samuel L. Jackson) to be a covert operator after several agents were killed. The fact that the NSA uses wire taps and satellites doesn’t matter, nor the fact that if a bunch of their operatives were killed going to someone with no experience and training like Xander would be stupid. That’s what I mean when I say don’t analyze the movie, just watch it. Of course, that was also supposed to be part of the charm of this new action film. People had seen James Bond types for decades and now they were going to get a smart talking, wise cracking Gen Xer in Xander. It succeeded at some things and failed at others in this attempt at a new spy action film.<br /><br />To its credit XXX isn’t all serious. It’s willing to poke fun of itself. That’s seen when Xander is picked up by Gibbons. Twice he gets shot by a tranquilizer dart because they don’t want to deal with him. Then Danny Trejo shows up as a Colombian drug lord and Xander and two other NSA trainees can’t stop laughing at him. There are plenty of other examples.<br /><br />At the same time, they can’t get away from the spy genre. Hence Xander is sent on a mission to Prague and gets a whole slew of gadgets and an expert to explain them just like James Bond.<br /><br />The director Rob Cohen had worked with Diesel on the first Fast and the Furious film. That led to some a GTO muscle car being made Xander’s car during his mission.<br /><br />Other times XXX can’t help but be bad. Xander is given X-Ray binoculars and in one scene he stares at a brick wall. Then in the climax he’s trying to disarm a torpedo with deadly gas on it and right before he stops it he says, “Welcome to the Xander zone,” which was the catchphrase from the videos he used to make as a civilian.<br /><br />Overall, XXX is very up and down. You can’t take the start nor the end seriously. The middle played some fun with the genre.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 2109 reviewers.

5 | One of the great films of all time as ronin defend a poor village from bandits | Rashomon released in 1950 put Akira Kurosawa on the international map of great film directors. It would forever change the way people thought about story and truth in movies. Four years later his Seven Samurai met with an even greater response worldwide.<br /><br />The film focuses upon a poor village of farmers who are threatened by bandits. With no means of defense they decide to hire ronin (masterless samurai) to protect their homes. Thus begins one of the great action movies of all time that would go on to influence cinema for decades afterward.<br /><br />The movie is said to be the first film that featured on man forming a group of fighters to go on a mission. The number of films that used this device afterward is endless.<br /><br />The samurai are contrasted with the poor peasants of the village. The ronin are masterless and poor, but still consider themselves part of the upper class because of their former positions. The peasants on the other hand are so down and out. They mistrust the samurai fearing that they will not only take advantage of them, but their women as well. When they show up, all the farmers hide in fear. In one scene poor townsfolk make fun of the farmers as the lowest of the low in Japanese society.<br /><br />The first third of the film is the dilemma the village faces. The middle third is on preparing the town for defense. The last third is the prolonged battle with the bandits. Each part is great on its own. Kurosawa did a fantastic job with the overall story and the characters as well. Each one of the seven samurai and some of the villages like the elder village leader are all highlighted and get their moments.<br /><br />The Criterion version also comes with great packaging. There are two discs for the movie , a third one with interviews and other extras, plus a book on the movie as well.<br />C | The movie title "Seven Samurai (The Criterion Collection) [DVD]," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.9 from 2288 reviewers.

2 | Movie is cartoonish | I can’t take this movie seriously. That’s because too many of the characters are cartoonish. The theme of the film is youthful rebellion. At home Yen was dealing with his son who refuses to listen to him. Then Yen goes to San Francisco where his former student Bruce Lee/Danny Chan Kwok-Kwan won’t listen to the martial arts establishment in the city. That’s where the problems start. Kwok-Kwan tries to copy the mannerisms of Lee and his fights are kind of ridiculous. White racism against the Chinese is present again but almost all the white characters are totally overblown. Then one of the big fight scenes is a take off of one seen in Ip Man 2 although it was satisfying at the end. Yen turns in his regular performance of Ip being a very humble man. It’s a shame he let the series come to this. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 24282 reviewers.

3 | Gory, suspensful with a good twist | The Saw movies become a purely formulaic franchise. You just watch to see what kind of messed up things Jigsaw is going to do to people.

3 | Simple plot Lots of action Sympathetic girl gets caught in the whirlwind | Safe has a very simple plot. This little girl named Mei (Catherine Chan) has a number in her head that the Chinese and Russian mobs want along with some crooked cops. Luke (Jason Statham) becomes her protector.<br /><br />The movie isn’t all action however. It starts off by laying out how Mei went to work for the Chinese mob and how Luke fell from grace and became bum. When the two randomly meet is when all the action starts. It’s nothing groundbreaking but it is entertaining. You also have to feel for Mei because she gets thrown around and passed off from one group to another like a sack of potatoes.

4 | Michael B. Jordan is looking for a family | Creed is all about family. The start of the film shows Michael B. Jordan’s character as a kid in juvenile hall getting into fights. That’s because he grew up without parents. The movie is about him trying to find a family. He finds one in Phylicia Rashad who was his dad’s wife, a surrogate father in Sylvester Stallone and a girlfriend in Tessa Thompson. Together they prepare Jordan to become a boxer and prove himself because he grew up with nothing. In turn, his boxing challenges the new ties he created.<br /><br />The bond between Jordan and Stallone feels real and provides the main storyline. They have some funny moments together as well like when Stallone tells Jordan to try to catch a chicken for boxing training or when Jordan says he’s got some notes Stallone gave him in the cloud meaning the Internet while Stallone looks up into the sky asking what cloud? On top of that the boxing scenes are top notch and provide a lot of drama. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 33840 reviewers.

2 | Had some original ideas but not enough horror | Blacula was a ground breaking release because it was the first Blaxploitation-Horror film. It would lead to a whole new genre.<br /><br />The screenplay by Joan Torres, Raymond Koenig and Richard Glouner was also original. They created Prince Mamuwalde as the main character played by William Marshall who was cursed by Count Dracula (Charles Macaulay) to become a vampire, Blacula. Mamuwalde was an articulate, intelligent, African dignitary. He originally came to Dracula hoping to gain his aid in ending the slave trade, but instead was bitten. Dracula was always of European nobility so they had to come up with a similar background for Blacula. It was also interesting that he was an opponent of slavery.<br /><br />The main story was on how Blacula was awakened in the modern period and was searching for his wife. When he sees a woman named Tina (Vonetta McGee) he’s convinced that is his significant other and he becomes obsessed with finding her. This humanizes Blacula because he is a lonely man, out of his time, and searching for his true love. Of course, along the way he sucks the blood of all the people he runs into. That’s the other part of the film as a policeman investigates the deaths and discovers that a vampire is behind them.<br /><br />In the end however, while I appreciate the writing Blacula is not that good of a horror film. There’s not enough of the vampires and too much on the relationship. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 297 reviewers.

4 | Great version of Tolkien's story | Before Peter Jackson got his hands upon the Lord of the Rings trilogy there was this 1978 animated release by director Ralph Bakshi. It covered the first book The Fellowship of the Ring and part of the second The Two Towers.<br /><br />The year before Bakshi had released Wizard and the two shared a similar style. Mixed in with the animation were live action sequences. That technique was mostly used to portray the Nazgul and the Orcs. They are shown as big shadowy monsters.<br /><br />If you like the Lord of the Rings story there’s no reason why you won’t like this version. Yes, it’s older. Yes, it’s animated but it does a great job capturing the characters and adventure of Tokien’s famous books. | The movie title "The Lord of the Rings: 1978 Animated Movie (Remastered Deluxe Edition)," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 4622 reviewers.

4 | Manipulation betrayal and corruption are the themes of Wanted | Wanted is about a group of assassins called The Fraternity. The story stars James McAvoy as Wesley Gibson who is contacted by the group’s leader Sloan (Morgan Freeman) and told that a man named Cross (Thomas Kretschmann) killed his father and he should seek revenge. Wesley is matched up with Fox (Angelina Jolie) who mentors him in the art of killing. The story ultimately comes down to manipulation, betrayal and the corruption that comes along with power.<br /><br />The movie begins with a big shoot out action scene featuring Cross, but what really draws you in is McAvoy’s character. Wesley is the most unlikeliest person to be recruited by a group of murderers. He’s insecure, has panic attacks, and has an inferiority complex marked by him constantly apologizing to everyone. He’s literally afraid of life as shown by the opening shots of him at work. The first half of the film is taken up by his training which takes a long time because he’s scared of nearly everything.<br /><br />That doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty more action sequences. Those are very exciting. The film came up with a bullet twist for The Fraternity and Cross which was very original. The action is also well thought out and choreographed such as when Cross is chasing Wesley and Fox. She flips their car over a bunch of police while Wesley says “I’m sorry” to them via the sunroof.<br /><br />Wanted also gives motivation for the Fraternity. Sloan says it is carrying out fate in executing people. Fox gets more personal saying that her father was brutally murdered and if a member of the Fraternity had carried out their orders that would have never happened. She makes the argument that they are eliminating bad people and carrying out justice where none is had. The true meaning of the Fraternity is revealed at the end.<br /><br />All together Wanted works on all levels. The characters and the Fraternity are interesting. The action is top notch. You can’t discuss the themes without spoiling the story so you just have to watch it to figure them out. There’s even a twist at the end and Freeman gets to deliver one of the great and profane speeches in film. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 6141 reviewers.

4 | Brings back a lot of memories from my youth listening to bands on Dischord Records | DC Punk has always had a special place in my heart and in my youth. Bad Brains and all the bands that came out on Dischord Records like Minor Threat, Void, Faith, Marginal Man, etc. were part of the soundtrack of my growing up. This documentary, which takes its name from a Minor Threat song covers the late 1970s up to the Fugazi period focusing upon the Dischord label and the bands’ associated with it, but covers others as well.<br /><br />The movie has an interesting start. First, people talk about how they heard the 77 Punk bands and that inspired them to join the movement. Then Bad Brains was the first local band that everyone looked up to. Then they go into how much they got picked on and literally beat up all the time by straight people who were threatened by these punk kids. Eventually that transitions into Dischord Records, which put out so many of the iconic records and bands of the 80s. It’s not all just talking heads there is some great archival footage of shows to go along with it. Of course, there’s also a discussion of Straight Edge which was something iconic for the D.C. area. After that there are other issues covered like Positive Force that tried to get the scene into politics and what became known as Emocore.<br /><br />One part I really liked was the fact that it covered how a lot of the early punks loved Go-Go music which is an original genre native to DC. There were even some Go-Go-Punk crossover shows in the early 1980s.<br /><br />Overall, this is a very good movie that brought back a lot of memories for me.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 170 reviewers.

4 | Bunch of misfits on a Little League team oached by a manager who'd rather get drunk | The Bad News Bears is about a bunch of misfits. Walter Matthau is the coach, a washed up ex-player who doesn’t really care and is just doing it for a check so he can buy beer. The kids on the team are completely unorganized, and don’t know what they’re doing. They are the laughing stock of the league. At first Matthau doesn’t care, but then he sees the hurt in the kids’ faces and decides to make a team out of them. He recruits Tatum O’Neal who is his ex-girlfriend’s daughter to pitch and then Chris Barnes who is a neighborhood delinquent, but who can really play.<br /><br />Overall, this makes for a great family film. Matthau does a great job in the lead. He has the perfect look and attitude for the film. Tatum O’Neal is also a great tomboy and Chris Barnes as the rebel. They have that 70s look and attitude about them.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 2735 reviewers.

4 | Teens' dead end lives have deadened their souls | River’s Edge is about a bunch of troubled heavy metal teenagers. One of the group, John (Daniel Roebuck) killed his girlfriend on a riverbank hence the title. John shows so little remorse he shows off the body to his two friends Layne (Crispin Glover) and Matt (Keanu Reeves), and then to everyone else. The movie is about how they deal with the death and how it divides the group. It turns out to be a moral question or lack thereof.<br /><br />The story focuses upon how the characters deal with John’s crime. It leads to divisions and recriminations. Their friend is a murderer and most of them just want to go on with their life.<br /><br />There’s a subplot as well about Matt’s little brother Tim who is a sociopath. He throws away his baby sister’s doll at the start of the movie. Continues to pick on her, and then wants to get revenge upon Matt for hitting him.<br /><br />The movie is really about nihilism. The kids don’t seem to have any purpose. Most don’t mind that their friend John killed another one of their friends. No one even shows any emotions about it. Getting high was their biggest priority. Their dead end lives have robbed them of their ability to tell right from wrong. It’s just like another day.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.4 from 908 reviewers.

3 | Revenge helps a former Vietnam War POW get over his PTSD | William Devane comes back from Vietnam with PTSD after being a prisoners of war. What helps brings him out of it is seeking revenge for a tragedy.<br /><br />The movie does a good job portraying Devane’s disorder. He looks like he’s fine but he has a blank stare and a detachment about him. There are also flashbacks to when he thinks about his time in prison in Vietnam.<br /><br />Tommy Lee Jones also has a role as another soldier and looks just as messed up as Devane.<br /><br />One thing that drags the movie down a bit is the pace. Too many 70s films just felt like they could air out the plot when in fact it made things go very slowly at times.

4 | Charlie kidnaps his brother out of spite but then they bond on road trip across US | Charlie Babbitt (Tom Cruise) is a high end car salesman and hustler. Suddenly his father who he’d been estranged from since he was a teenager dies. His money goes to a trust fund which Charlie finds out belongs to his older brother Ray (Dustin Hoffman) who Charlie never knew about. That’s because Ray is autistic and was institutionalized since Charlie was a baby. Charlie takes out his anger about his father upon Ray by kidnapping him. Charlie can barely deal with regular people let alone someone with a disability. When he takes Ray he is callous, angry, and sometimes abusive. All the hate he had for his father was brought up by his death and the discovery that he had a brother just made his personality faults worse. The question is whether the road trip they take will open up Charlie to the fact that he has an older brother.<br /><br />The film has many great parts playing upon Ray’s autism. He repeats the same phrases. He has a set of TV shows he always has to watch like Judge Wapner. Hoffman did a great good job with the part. He didn’t push it and just played upon certain quirks and idiosyncrasies in the character. Cruise on the other hand was the perfect jerk. It actually didn’t take much to believe him in this role. The movie is still compelling after all these years. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 5313 reviewers.

2 | Pacino couldn't save this movie from mediocracy | 88 Minutes gave a new twist to a common theme. There’s a serial killer on the loose. Instead of hunting down women like he usually did he was chasing after Al Pacino. Since this was familiar territory the question was could 88 Minutes do anything with it? It turned out to be pretty routine. Pacino for instance keeps on being taunted by the killer. I always like watching Pacino but he couldn’t save this film from mediocracy. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.4 from 744 reviewers.

5 | The most original and mind blowing Marvel series put on TV | The most original and mind blowing Marvel series ever put on TV. The show starts off with the main character Dan Stevens in a mental institution. Even better Aubrey Plaza is his lunatic friend and Jermaine Clement is a spaced out scientist. Every thing about the show has a surreal feel to it. One moment they’re staring at a drugged out mental patient drooling and the next there’s a dance routine. On top of that it’s a non-linear story with several different plots interspersed together. Mixed in with that is a secret government agency and an evil being. Also if you want to figure out how Legion fits into the Marvel Universe there’s a subtle hit towards the end of the season. Basically you have to watch this series to really appreciate it. Words can’t really capture how insane and ground breaking it was. | The movie title "Legion: The Complete Season One," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 1335 reviewers.

Here is a brief synopsis of the title : All eight episodes from the first season of the sci-fi thriller based on the Marvel Comics character Legion. David Haller (Dan Stevens) was diagnosed as a young boy with schizophrenia and spent his life in psychiatric hospitals. While a patient at Clockworks Hospital, David has an encounter with Sydney Barrett (Rachel Keller), a young girl with mutant powers, who suggests to him that he might not actually be ill; he might be a mutant. As government agents interrogate him to find out who he really is, David battles with the reality that he could be the most powerful mutant who ever lived.. | B0743SNBVW |
5 | Despair instead of hope is theme of the end of the 1st wave of the Marvel Cinematic Universe | Infinity War was the first part of the two part conclusion of the first wave of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). This was where the Avengers and company finally took on Thanos (Josh Brolin) who’d been in the background since the first Avengers’ film. Unlike previous Marvel movies the theme of this was one was despair as Thanos showed his true potential by completing the Infinity Gauntlet and carrying out his plan for galactic balance.<br /><br />The tone is set right at the start with some deaths at the hands of Thanos. Some of the heroes also act selfishly which will doom their fight against the big guy.<br /><br />Despite that there is still some room for comedy. Especially hilarious is when Thor meets the Guardians of the Galaxy.<br /><br />It’s also exciting to see all the Marvel characters all together in one big bash. Obviously as the end of this stage of the MCU they were going to pull out all of the stops.<br /><br />Bonus points for them giving some backstory to Thanos and even endowing him with some humanity even though that's not the right word because he's not human.<br /><br />For the Marvel geeks there are plenty of easter eggs as usual. The ending with Thanos on his farm for instance is right out of the comics.<br /><br />Overall this was a great first half of what would mark the end of the original MCU. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 58086 reviewers.

2 | Buddy cop movie where the police get to abuse people of color | Colors came out with a lot of fanfare in 1988. It was hyped as a gritty portrayal of the gang problem in Los Angeles which was blowing up at the time due to crack. There was extra security posted at movie theaters and lot of controversy over it in the press. This movie is not about gangs though. It’s really a buddy cop film with Sean Penn and Robert Duvall. Penn is the rookie trying to over compensate for his lack of experience by playing a tough guy, while Duvall is the seasoned veteran. It actually shows Penn abusing people on the job. Rather than being some a semi-realistic view of the people in the inner city it was actually your typical Hollywood production where cops get to beat up and abuse people of color.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 616 reviewers.

4 | The Conversation was way before its time talking about surveillance and society in America | The Conversation was about surveillance and society in America, a topic which was way before its time. It was written, produced and directed by Francis Ford Coppola.<br /><br />At the start of the movie Gene Hackman as Harry Caul tells his employee Stan (John Cazale) that he doesn’t care what people say when they surveille them as long as they get a clean recording. That leads to another dilemma for Caul. After he records a couple he’s afraid something bad might happen to them because of his work. To make matters worse he believes that people are following him because of that job.<br /><br />Coppola does a great job at misdirecting the audience because the story turns out to be not as it seems.<br /><br />When The Conversation came out in 1974 there was no way Coppola could know how relevant it would become. Shortly afterward the Watergate scandal broke and it was revealed that President Nixon ordered surveillance of his political opponents. After 9/11 the Patriot Act was passed which greatly increased the government’s ability to track people. Modern technology like computers and cell phones has also made itmuch easier for people’s conversations to be listened into and people’s routines discovered. Coppola was hinting at all that with this film.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.3 from 1505 reviewers.

5 | Little kid plays gangsters like pawns | Fresh is a coming of age story featuring Michael “Fresh” played by Sean Nelson. He’s in middle school in New York City, lives with his grandmother, aunt and almost a dozen other kids, runs drugs for a drug dealer named Esteban (Giancarlo Esposito), as well as sells crack on the side. His dad played by Samuel L. Jackson is a chess player and taught him how to think strategically. He lives in a world that makes him grow up much faster than he should.<br /><br />This movie is so surprising and amazing it’s hard to write about. It seems like it will be a typical story about a kid growing up in the inner city with drugs and gangsters and violence. It has all of those elements. Then it completely surprises you. Fresh comes up with a plan to get back at every single person that has wronged him, his friends and his family that it is completely amazing. You are at the edge of your seat waiting to see what he does next. He was able to play people like they were chess pieces which goes back to his relationship with his dad.<br /><br />This was hands above your usual coming of age and crime story about black kids. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 1269 reviewers.

5 | Breaks down strategy & tactics of the CivilRightsMovement along with the violent opposition it faced | Selma was an Ava DuVernay picture. The power of the film comes from the fact that it just doesn’t show the protests of the civil rights movement and then the beatings the people received at the hands of the police and racist whites it’s the fact that it breaks down the tactics and political strategy of the civil rights movement. Too many times movies and documentaries only show the marches and violence. They give the impression that a bunch of people protested with a lot of opposition and then eventually things changed. Without the purpose behind the demonstrations there’s no way to truly understand this historic moment in the United States.<br /><br />The movie begins with why the Civil Rights Movement was necessary. Dr. Martin Luther King (David Oyelowo) receives the Nobel Peace Prize for his work, and then the film cuts to the bombing of a church in Birmingham which killed four black girls. Then Annie Lee Cooper (Oprah Winfrey) attempts to vote, but is blocked by a civics test, which asked her to name every judge in the state. That sets up the dilemma of the film. It just wasn’t the segregation laws and practices that denied blacks their constitutional right to the ballot, it was the violent opposition of whites that killed innocent people as well that had to be stopped.<br /><br />The strategy at Selma was broken down at a meeting of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference led by Dr. King and Ralph Abernathy (Colman Domingo) and the Student Non-Violence Coordinating Committee represented by John Lewis (Stephan James) and James Forman (Trai Byers). The goal of the protest was to get President Johnson (Tom Wilkinson) to pass a voting rights act that would get rid of all the laws and regulations that stopped African Americans from casting ballots. King said their strategy was to negotiate, demonstrate and resist. That meant organizing African Americans in the Selma community, picking an area that was at the center of town, in this case the courthouse where people went to register to vote, and causing drama. Drama would get into the newspapers and apply pressure upon Johnson to pass the law. The drama would be caused by the local sheriff who was known as a violent racist who wouldn’t hesitate to beat blacks. The problem was the president had passed the Civil Rights Act and started his War on Poverty and didn’t want any more problems in the south with segregation and Dr. King. That’s the reason why the Southern Christian Leadership Conference went to Selma, to demonstrate, resist segregation, and then negotiate new legislation. The whole start of the movie is about lobbying the president, organizing, and talking through the steps necessary to achieve the voting rights act.<br /><br />The middle focuses upon the demonstrations and violence in Selma. The most famous scene was the march across Pettus Bridge where state troopers and local whites charged into a crowd of marchers and beat them senselessly which was captured by the media. The scene is breathtaking and shocking all at once. That brought whites and blacks from around the country to Selma to participate in a march to the Alabama state capital Montgomery, which closes the movie. Here DuVernay mixes newsreel photos of the actual march with her own scenes and music to make an emotional ending.<br /><br />Selma works on so many levels. The film captures the determination of African Americans to end legal racism in the United States, and the thinking behind the Civil Rights Movement. It portrays the beatings and murders blacks and their allies faced in the south. It hits you in the gut, the heart and the mind, and is a great educational tool to understand how the Civil Rights Movement worked, and how and why it was successful. DuVernay did an amazing job and the film deserves all the praise it received.<br />C | The movie title "Selma," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 55444 reviewers.

4 | This is the kind of Woody Allen movie I could watch all day | This is classic Woody Allen. It’s all comedy, neurosis and self-deprecation. He plays a writer who tells all kinds of witty and personal stories mostly about his relationships with women. One is about a young writer who sleeps with a hooker when Death shows up at his door. Another time Robin Williams is out of focus. Everything around him looks fine but he’s fuzzy and it only gets worse the next day. Then Allen goes to a ceremony with his friend, a hooker, and his son which he abducted from school.

4 | Great biopic of Ritchie Valens growing up Mexican-American | La Bamba takes a familiar path for musical biopics by taking the biggest hits by the artist and mixing it in with the main events from their lives. I think La Bamba however is heavier on Ritchie Valens/Loud Diamond Phillips upbringing as a Mexican American in 1950s California then other films. That also plays into the music as La Bamba was a Mexican folk tune and the first Rock hit to have Spanish lyrics.<br /><br />Esai Morales as his brother and Rosanna DeSoto as his mother stand out. Morales plays the bad boy as usual while DeSoto is a driving force in Phillips career. Their roles are almost as big as Phillips.<br /><br />It’s a great story and with great music. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.8 from 7408 reviewers.

4 | Fun John Carpenter-Rowdy Piper collab about saving the Earth from its own greed | Rowdy Roddy Piper and John Carpenter in a sci-fi/action film? Yes please!<br /><br />I always thought Kurt Russel and Carpenter were the perfect duo, but Piper gives him a run for his money in this 1988 release.<br /><br />They Live has a very anti-establishment theme to it. The aliens for example, have hidden messages in all the books, on TV, in ads, etc. telling people to obey and consume. They play upon the greed of the humans and use some of them as their surrogates against their fellow people. On the other hand, the number of poor, homeless and dispossessed such as John and Frank are growing. The police are also not there to protect the public, but to control it. This was a critique of capitalism, the ruling class in America, and the systems of control they create within society. The aliens basically represent the greed that has taken over U.S. society that leads the masses to ignore those less fortunate.<br /><br />Even if you want to skip the politics of the film, it’s still great action/sci-fi flick. John walks around seeing all the aliens amongst the humans and freaks out. He can’t adjust at first, and then decides to go on a rampage killing all the aliens randomly on the streets. There’s comedy as well such as when John tries to get Frank to put on the glasses so that he can see the truth of the world, but he refuses. They have a knock down brawl as a result.<br /><br />This isn’t the best Carpenter film, but it sure is fun.<br />C | The movie title "They Live," available on None, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 16831 reviewers.

Here is a brief synopsis of the title : They influence our decisions without us knowing it. They numb our senses without us feeling it. They control our lives without us realizing it. They live. Horror master John Carpenter (Halloween, The Thing) directs this heart-pounding thriller. Aliens are systematically gaining control of the earth by masquerading as humans and lulling the public into submission. Humanity's last chance lies with a lone drifter who stumbles upon a harrowing discovery—a unique pair of sunglasses that reveal the terrifying and deadly truth.. | B0000AOX0F |
2 | Tale of 2 halves 1st half of movie entertaining 2nd not as much | I always thought Capricorn One was about faking the landing on the moon but it turns out to be about a mission to Mars. Hal Holbrook gives a memorable speech about why NASA was forced to do it because the program was too big to fail.<br /><br />I liked the start of the film where they attempt to mislead the world about the Mars flight. It brought up the moral question of betraying the trust of the public by lying to them. Elliott Gould is also good as an investigative reporter. The second half becomes a cat and mouse game between the astronauts and NASA which isn’t as interesting. Really this movie is a tale of two halves with one entertaining and the other not so much. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.4 from 1914 reviewers.

3 | Unconventional heist film | The summary said this is considered the last Film Noir so I had to check it out. It starts off like a traditional heist film with Ed Begley putting together a crew. There’s immediately a twist as Harry Belafonte is one of the members. Including an African American actor in such a movie was rare at the time and they use it in the script with Robert Ryan another crook objecting to working with a black man.

3 | If you liked the first Barbershop there’s more to like here | After creating the Friday’s franchise about him hanging out with his friends as a young man in Los Angeles, Ice Cube decided to start another comedy series about being a businessman in Chicago with Barbershop. This was the second installment. This time Cube as Calvin is faced with a new challenge as a haircut chain is opening across the street from his shop.<br /><br />The large ensemble cast returned with Cedric the Entertainer as Eddie the old school barber dispensing knowledge and jokes, Troy Garity as Isaac a white barber who finally has credibility and a slew of customers, Eve as Terri who still an angry woman, Sean Patrick Thomas is Jimmy who has moved up from the barbershop to work for an alderman, Leonard Earl Howze as Dinka is still sweeping the floor, and Michael Ealy is Ricky. Added to that is Queen Latifah as Gina who runs a beauty salon and Kenan Thompson as Kenard the new barber for Calvin. As usual they are the real stars of the movie and all their stories and jokes carries things far more than Calvin’s dilemma. For instance, Calvin holds a BBQ and Eddie gets into with a little girl. She says she’s going to tell her auntie on him and he responds “Go to the crackhouse and tell your auntie.” Another time a councilman comes to Calvin’s to try to help it out and Kenard lops off a hunk of his hair. The characters really create some great laughs.<br /><br />The movie centers on whether Calvin’s shop is a pillar of the community or not to see whether it survives. Black barbershops aren’t just where people get a cut it’s where they hang out gossip etc. If Calvin has that then he’ll survive this challenge.<br /><br />If you liked the first Barbershop there’s more to like here. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 1402 reviewers.

3 | Not your usual crime drama | This is an anti-Communist film reflecting the Cold War when it was made. It features George Raft as the mastermind of a plot to kidnap a scientist for the Communists. Raft specialized in playing crooks but this time with a twist. Edward G. Robinson was on the side of the law. It was set in Montreal of all places so there are the Royal Mounted Police which I didn’t expect. There are other surprises as well such as a gigolo manipulating a woman, the killing of innocents, and more.

4 | A very unexpected surprise | The Sugarland Express was based upon a true story and was the second movie Steven Spielberg directed. It features Goldie Hawn breaking her husband William Atherton out of prison and their adventure across Texas to get their baby back. It’s an unconventional story. Spielberg must have had a big budget because he had nearly every cop car around in the film. The movie just builds and grows bigger and bigger as it progresses. I was apprehensive a bit at the start that the story would just drag on but it surprised me, especially how it ended. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.3 from 760 reviewers.

2 | Very mixed writing with horrible start then redeems itself but still flawed | The Faculty was Robert Rodriguez’s fifth film. It starts off like a stereotypical high school story where you have the popular kids and the outcasts and really exaggerates those divisions. Then it turns into a horror story about the teachers.<br /><br />The first thing that strikes you about the film is that it had a large ensemble cast with many of the actors going on to bigger and better things. For instance there’s Josh Hartnett, Clea DeVall, Elijah Wood, Famke Janssen, Jon Stewart and Salma Hayek plus Usher of all people.<br /><br />The start of the movie does not give you confidence this will be any good because it gives such a formulaic portrayal of high school. Wood for example gets scissored on a pole by a bunch of jocks. Then it redeems itself with the teacher part of the story although there are still some big holes in the writing.<br /><br />Overall that makes for a very mixed bag.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 4481 reviewers.

3 | Tormentor wants to teach a man a lesson | Colin Farrell plays a slimy publicist who is going to be taught a lesson about his conniving ways by an anonymous tormenter played by Kiefer Sutherland. He’s only a voice on a phone but his threatening Farrell and his reactions make the whole movie. Farrell is mostly standing in once place the entire film but despite that limitation he gives a strong performance. The cast also includes Forest Whitaker as a police captain trying to talk Farrell down. I’m a fan so it’s always good to see him in a movie.

3 | Another re-imagining of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan character | Movie interpretations of Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan character have been up and down. This is another re-imagining with Chris Pine playing Ryan as an economic analyst for the CIA. Of course he gets involved in some action on top of that in a plot in Russia. They even play around with the story a bit with a dispute between Pine and his girlfriend Keira Knightley. The movie turns out to be pretty good. There’s a good mix of espionage and they don’t get carried away with the gun play because Pine after all is an analyst. Still you can’t help but compare it to other franchises in the genre and this is no James Bond of Mission Impossible. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 18774 reviewers.

2 | Unfulfilling movie | The Mortician had some interesting elements but not an interesting story. Method Man plays the mortician as a socially awkward and solitary figure working on dead bodies and then taxidermy in his free time. He was the reason why I wanted to see this movie because it was so different from what he usually does.<br /><br />The story takes place in an urban wasteland full of empty buildings, abandoned factories, and people living on the edge of society.<br /><br />The problem is nothing happens in the story. Method Man goes to work and then looks at the urban decay around him when he goes home and nothing much else goes on. The plot finally develops with a little kid who hangs around the outside of the morgue who is wanted. His predicament still didn’t make the move any more coherent.<br /><br />Overall I found this a very unfulfilling movie. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.1 from 142 reviewers.

3 | Predictable but still funny | Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn are 30s something salesmen whose company went under. They get internships at Google where they’re dealing with people a generation younger. The movie is a buddy comedy making fun of them being out of place in their new environment. The story is completely predictable so the question is could they make you laugh along the way? The answer is yes. Will Farrell makes a cameo and is hilarious as usual. Vaughn and Wilson maintain their chemistry that they’ve established over the years.

3 | Expands upon the original John Carpenter film | This is a remake of John Carpenter’s 1980 horror film. The original was a good but not great Carpenter release.

4 | Moving story of a girl looking for love | Pariah is about the alienation of Adepero Oduye who is a young black lesbian teenager going through puberty.

3 | Some of the myths and realities about Sid Vicious | This is one of those entertainment/true crime type TV shows made in England about Sid Vicious. It adds what members of the Sex Pistols have said in other programs that when they added Sid Vicious to the band he lost it because he felt like he had to be uber Punk and that led to all kinds of excesses and Sid losing himself. It also calls out Malcolm McLaren as not being a real manager. On the other hand, the show blames the fall of the Pistols on his girlfriend Nancy when the Pistol members would blame Vicious because he didn’t know how to play bass and become a distraction from the music. I learned some things as well such as Sid’s relationship with his mom who got him into drugs. It also has it’s own theory about what happened to Vicious at the end. It’s not bad for a short program. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of None from None reviewers.

3 | Fun parody of post-apocalyptic Earth | This c-list movie isn’t half bad. It reminds me of one of the short stories from the animated Heavy Metal film. That’s especially true with the voice over commentary explaining the story. It features a post-apocalyptic Earth where women have all the brains and organization and men are brutes. The best part is that it doesn’t take itself seriously. If it did it would be a disaster.

4 | A fairy tale with the greatest group of odd characters | Princess Bride is a fairy tale of the best kind. It’s not the love story between Cary Elwes and Robin Wright that’s the draw but all the other odd characters they run into. That starts off with the rogues led by Wallace Shawn that includes Andre the Giant and a very young Mandy Patinkin. Shawn is the brains, Andre the Brawn and Patinkin the steel. What a motley crew! There are others such as Billy Crystal as Miracle Max and Peter Cook as a cardinal. Just as good is Peter Falk reading the story to his sick grandson Fred Savage who keeps interrupting the story to complain about kissing or what will happen to the hero Elwes. It really is a special story. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.8 from 31050 reviewers.

4 | Captures the mood and feel of the Japanese original | The Grudge was the American produced re-make of Ju-On. Both had the same director Takashi Shimizu who also wrote the original. In Tokyo a husband killed his wife and child inside their house. Anyone that entered it was cursed by their dead souls. The movie did a good job capturing the mood and feel of the Japanese story.<br /><br />The film contained many of the main elements from Ju-On. There was the haunted the house, the old woman that moved in, her caretakers, the police officer, and most importantly the ghosts of the dead family that start popping up. They were all done well again bringing the same style.<br /><br />Also like the original The Grudge is not really a scary movie. It’s more like a thriller as the ghosts come to terrorize everyone they meet.<br /><br />Overall The Grudge was just as good as the original which was quite an accomplishment.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.3 from 3709 reviewers.

3 | 1 of Michael Shannon's darkest roles | Michael Shannon specializes in playing dark parts and this is one of the darkest. He plays a hitman with a very long list of victims. Shannon has a menacing look down pat that fits the role perfectly. He also doesn’t talk much which adds to the persona. He hooks up with Chris Evans and together they turn killing into a science. They gave him a long hair and mustache 70s look that makes him almost unrecognizable at first. Shannon and Evans’ trademark is piling up bodies and body parts in a freezer. Ray Liotta plays Shannon’s first boss. He’s got the mafia bit down pat. It’s a very interesting story and Shannon really shines. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 2307 reviewers.

Her boyfriend and best friend are moving away and her mom is sick in the hospital. Nothing seems to be going right for her.<br /><br />The movie really captures the angst, frustration and disappointment that Olympia feels. It’s a very empathetic film.<br /><br />Mixed in with the movie is little animated bits to highlight Olympia’s artistic side. For instance she shoots down a guy at a bar and “Bam!” shows up next to his head. It’s a nice little touch.<br /><br />The acting and story are very strong as well making this an enjoyable watch. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.2 from 82 reviewers.

2 | Just too cliche and corny for me | I get the point of this movie. Kevin Costner is trying to return some normalcy and humanity to a post-apocalyptic world. It’s just the way it was produced is so bad. Like Larenz Tate coming up to Costner and saying I want to be a postman like you!

3 | An anti-apartheid buddy film? | Michael Caine and Sidney Poitier are on the run in apartheid South Africa. It’s part drama as they travel across the country. It’s part buddy film as they not only come from different worlds but one is a revolutionary and the other is a liberal. I like the humanity they added to Poitier’s character. He’d just gotten out of the infamous Robin Island prison and is at a dance where he stares at all the women because he hadn’t seen any for years. It also highlights the politics of South Africa where the whites were committed to their racist policies fearing what would happen if the black majority were given power. It also has small acts of defiance like a tribal chief frustrating the police as they interrogate him looking for Caine and Poitier. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 77 reviewers.

2 | Story is too dragged out | In Odd Man Out James Mason is a member of the IRA who is wounded in an operation. The introduction says the movie tried to stay out of the politics about the troubles in Northern Ireland and wanted to focus upon the human impact of the conflict. It starts off well with the Mason and his crew of militants pulling off an operation. Then it falls into melodrama too much as his girlfriend Kathleen Ryan yearns for him. On the other hand various people come across Mason which poses a moral questions for them as they have to decide whether or not to help him since he’s an outlaw. A funny thing is Mason and others try to pull off Irish accents but it fades in and out.

4 | An odd couple set off on an impossible mission that gives them something to live for | What would you do if the world was about to end? That’s the premise of Seeking A Friend For The End Of The World starring Steve Carell and Keira Knightley. The two set out on a journey in the last days to see if there is anything still worth living for.<br /><br />The movie uses the odd couple motif. Carell plays the cynical, heartbroken man that has nothing to live for. For him, the world ending might not be so bad. Knightley is the exact opposite. She’s carefree and has no real burdens. Carell is by far the more interesting character. You feel sorry for the guy because his life has been such a disaster. Even though you can tell where things will end as soon as it starts it still has its moments. There are serious issues about life and family as well so not everything is supposed to be for comedic effect.<br />C | The movie title "Seeking A Friend For The End Of The World," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 2770 reviewers.

4 | Army investigation centers around memory and subjectivity as each witnesses tells their tale | Samuel L. Jackson as Sergeant Nathan West and his squad of Rangers disappear during a training mission in Panama. Three of them are found but one them shoots another. DEA Agent and ex-Ranger Tom Hardy (John Travolta) and Captain Julia Osborne (Connie Nielsen) are assigned to investigate what happened to West’s unit. Hardy knows West while Osborne resents the fact that Hardy was called in when he’s not Army. The movie unfolds using a series of flashbacks with a focus upon how West treated his soldiers. The movie is a criminal investigation that deals with memory and subjectivity as each person recollects events a different way.<br /><br />Hardy and Osborne are your typical odd couple. Hardy is unconventional in his methods while Osborne does everything by the book. Jackson has a flair for characters that get mad and yell and Sergeant West was one of those roles. West was portrayed as an unrelenting sergeant who pushed his men to the breaking point.<br /><br />The movie is a great police procedural with twists and turns and the plot goes much deeper than it initially seems.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 1917 reviewers.

2 | Worst of the 4 Indiana Jones films Whiny sidekick Disrespects India Crummy writing overall | Raiders of the Lost Ark became such a success it was only a matter of time before it became a franchise. The Temple of Doom was the second installment in the series. This time Jones (Harrison Ford) is out to find a stolen gem and missing children from an impoverished Indian village taken by an evil maharaja who resides at a palace. He was accompanied by Shorty (Jonathan Ke Quan) and Willie (Kate Capshaw). The screenplay was not half as good as the original.<br /><br />The first thing that stands out is that the writing took a step backwards from Raiders of the Lost Ark. There Jones was partnered with Marion (Karen Allen) who was his equal in terms of toughness and willingness to fight. Here you get Willie who spends almost her entire time on screen complaining, screaming and whining. There were scenes created specifically for her to freak out like when they’re in the jungle and she runs into a bunch of animals. It gets really annoying.<br /><br />When Jones and company show up at the palace there was also a lot of bad exoticization of Indian culture. They go to a feast where snakes, bugs, soup with eyeballs in it and monkey brain are served. India was still foreign enough for the writers to portray it as a very strange and odd place that a Westerner would be disgusted by. It’s very disrespectful.<br /><br />Overall it seemed like The Temple of Doom was a takeoff of an old exploitation movie. Hence the dinner, the cult, etc. That makes it by far the worse out of the four Indiana Jones films. I’m still a sucker for the series so I still watch the movie when it’s on but it’s just a disappointment.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 4658 reviewers.

5 | Classic comedy based upon age old question of nature vs nurture | Trading Places is a classic comedy based upon a sociological question that used to be a major concern of the social sciences. That’s the debate between nature versus nurture. One is that the environment shapes a person’s life against their upbringing. Two millionaire commodities traders Mortimer (Don Ameche) and Randolph Duke (Ralph Bellamy) get in an argument over just that issue and make a bet to see which theory is true. This involves throwing Louis Winthorp (Dan Aykroyd) who ran the Duke’s company and replacing him with a homeless man Bill Ray Valentine (Eddie Murphy). They want to see if the two will change how they act with a dramatic change in environment or whether they will remain the same given their upbringing. Hence the comedy begins as Billy becomes a millionaire, while Louis takes up with a prostitute Ophelia (Jamie Lee Curtis).<br /><br />There are so many hilarious moments that ensue. There’s the extreme WASPishness of Louis and his girlfriend Penelope (Kristin Darnell). When the Dukes try to explain Bill Ray that he will now be living in Winthrop’s house he’s taken aback. When he takes a bath in a jazuzzi he says that when he was a kid he had to fart in the tub to make bubbles, and many, many more. I saw this film when it first came out and it is still as funny now as then. | The movie title "Trading Places," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.8 from 16122 reviewers.

Here is a brief synopsis of the title : TRADING PLACES - DVD - In this screwball comedy of manners, millionaire commodity brokers Randolph and Mortimer Duke (Don Ameche and Ralph Bellamy) wager a bet that pits environment vs. Biology and turns the lives of their two unsuspecting victims upside down. Eddie Murphy costars as Billy Ray Valentine, a streetwise hustler who gets dragged off the street and into the proper life of top Duke Bros. Broker Louis Winthorpe III (Dan Aykroyd), who in turn gets tossed out of his posh townhouse and onto the mean city streets. The comic team of Murphy and Aykroyd is deliriously funny as they both struggle to comprehend their new lives. Billy Ray is forced to learn proper etiquette, manners, and business sense while uptight Louis scrambles to make it on the streets, befriending a prostitute (Jamie Lee Curtis) who takes him in and saves him from starvation-or worse. When the two innocent victims realize the scheming brothers' plot, they unite and devise a fabulous revenge to prove that their lives can't be controlled by the power-grubbing Duke brothers. The film features outstanding work by Denholm Elliott as the butler and Curtis as the prostitute with a heart of gold. Curtis especially shines in the scene in which she removes all of her hustler accoutrements to reveal her true looks.. | B01M7SPXI4 |
4 | Persona of a serial killer | No Man Of God is about Elijah Wood playing one of the first FBI criminal profilers who is tasked with trying to interview and profile Ted Bundy played by Luke Kirby. In a way the film reminds me of Silence of the Lambs with the scenes between Jodie Foster and Anthony Hopkins. This is based upon true events however.<br /><br />Kirby plays Bundy as someone calculating, very smart and with absolutely no regrets. The more he talks the more creepy he gets. Wood goes from trying to understand Kirby to in a way carrying the burden of what he did. The story actually never really goes into Bundy’s crimes which was surprising since they were so horrific. Instead it just focuses upon his persona. That provides a powerful film. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.1 from 2913 reviewers.

Adrien Brody is a socially awkward man that wants to be a ventriloquist and to win the heart of Vera Farminga. He’s assisted by his best friend Milla Jovovich who is a rebellious and anti-social Heavy Metal head. The story is cute and has a few unexpected turns. Jovovich for instance heads a Rock band that turns into something you’d never believe. The movie also plays on Brody carrying around a dummy all the time.

4 | A truly evil plot and the best of the post-war Nazi films | In the 1960s-70s there were a series of films about the legacy of the Nazis. One of the first was the 1966 Quiller Memorandum where George Segal worked for a secret agency trying to stop a Neo-Nazi revival in Berlin. In 1974 there was The Odessa File with Jon Voight as a freelance journalist who stumbles upon a network that helped Nazis after World War II. 1976’s Marathon Man had college student Dustin Hoffman caught in the middle of a plot between the U.S. government and an old Nazi played by Laurence Olivier. By far the best of the lot and the most menacing was The Boys from Brazil released in 1978.<br /><br />The movie begins with a novice American Nazi hunter Barry Kohler (Steve Guttenberg) in Paraguay calling Ezra Liberman (Laurence Olivier) in Austria who is based upon real life Nazi investigator Simon Wiesenthal. Kohler stumbled upon a plot by old followers of Adolf Hitler that included war criminal Dr. Josef Mengele (Gregory Peck) to murder 94 men across various countries around the world. Kohler is killed for his snooping, which gets Lieberman involved. The Nazi’s plan turns out to be mind-blowing and sinister, and puts it hands above all the other films dealing with this topic.<br /><br />Olivier plays a great Liberman. He’s grumpy, he’s cynical, but he cares and takes up Kohler’s cause. Peck as Mengele is imposing and evil. The story goes through twists and turns, and really has to be seen.<br />C | The movie title "The Boys from Brazil," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 1543 reviewers.

The two stories end up being intertwined.<br /><br />Like all Zatoichi films there’s a mix of the blindman helping out women, joking around in this case with the kid he has to take care of, dealing with bad Yakuza who are exploiting people, and finally befriending and having to fight a samurai. The one big difference was that the writers really played with the audiences heartstrings with the relationship between Zatoicihi and the orphan.<br /><br />By this time the Zatoichi series had become formulaic but it was still very entertaining.<br />C | The movie title "Zatoichi the Blind Swordsman, Vol. 17 - Zatoichi Challenged [DVD]," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.9 from 21 reviewers.

4 | 2 brave women take on the education system | As a 20+ year public high school teacher this movie struck home. The opening has Maggie Gyllenhaal as a mother with a daughter in an elementary school looking at all the different teachers from good to bad and her inability to change anything for her kid. Schools are like a giant bureaucratic machine which only cares about enrolling students and seeing them leave. What happens to them during that process is of little concern as long as the system keeps going. Together with a teacher played by Viola Davis they attempt to reform their school by jumping through the massive hoops the school district has created within its rules and regulations to make anything change. It also shows the isolation of most teachers who are only really concerned with their kids and their classroom and not the entire student body and school. It’s a powerful set of barriers to overcome. It makes Gyllenhaal and Davis all the more brave for what they tried to do. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 357 reviewers.

3 | Shaped the entire Pink Panther franchise | The original Pink Panther movie really wasn’t about Peter Sellers playing Inspector Clouseau nor was it funny. A Shot In The Dark was the second in the franchise and based upon a play. It placed Sellers in the middle of everything and was a huge improvement shaping all the following releases.<br /><br />The story focuses upon a series of murders surrounding Elke Sommer who is a maid at a rich estate. Sellers bumbles around on the case. He proved to be a great physical comedian fighting his servant Burt Kwouk, getting his hand caught in a globe and more. They also put him into plenty of funny situations like a running joke where he would wear disguises and get arrested or when he goes to a nudist colony.<br /><br />If you want to watch the Pink Panther series this should be where you start. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 1096 reviewers.

4 | Having to choose between King and God | Becket which was based upon the play of the same name is about the closest of friends the Norman King Henry II (Peter O’Toole) and Thomas Becket (Richard Burton) who was a Saxon and would become the Archbishop of Canterbury who became rivals. Even when they are pitted against each other they are torn inside because they have such deep feelings for each other.<br /><br />The relationship between the two goes through stages. At first, Becket says he serves the king because he wants to survive and not end up like other Saxons who are starving. As a result he’s despised by his own people. As for the king he says that Becket is the only many he can trust but he’s a bit of a mystery. Becket is smart, cunning and strategic which makes the king wonder why he serves instead of tries to rule. The interactions change when Henry decides to make Beckett the Archbishop of Canterbury. Now Becket feels that he is serving God and not the king. That would lead to the conflict in the plot over the division of church and state.<br /><br />The movie is a good drama about friendship. It’s always nice to see a solid performance by O’Toole and Burton and they deliver here. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 1372 reviewers.

2 | This movie has always disappointed me | This movie is about the corruption of power. The Chinese emperor orders the creation of an assassin squad that uses the Flying Guillotine to eliminate his enemies. It quickly spirals out of control showing the dangers of unchecked authority. Like many Shaw Brothers’ releases the film spends a lot of time on training as the assassin team learns how to use the new devices. That leads to rivalries, splits and a question of conscience. I always felt a bit disappointed by this movie. The fight scenes are slow and by the numbers. There’s the throw away love story. Most importantly the plot drags.

First off they insisted on trying to show off Halle Berry’s new powers in a ridiculous scene of her playing basketball with Benjamin Bratt. It was as bad as that sounds.

2 | Turned out to be rather predictable | The Kids Are All Right is a new kind of story about family and raising kids. It features Mia Wasikowska and Josh Hutcherson living with their two mothers Julianne Moore and Annette Bening. The kids reach out to their sperm donor dad Mark Ruffalo creating an awkward extended family on top of issues some of the characters are already facing. The kids are going through usual teen rebelliousness while the two mothers are having problems with their relationship. I thought it was okay but nothing that hadn’t been dealt with before. I understand the acclaim it got for dealing with a gay couple with kids but that didn’t mean two moms dealing with teens that didn’t want to talk to them was somehow going to be amazingly different. Bening’s character was also completely overbearing which made her my least favorite character. On top of that they threw in a plot twist to cause a dilemma which was very predictable. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.3 from 1042 reviewers.

4 | Rare critique of the arbitrary power of the samurai lords | Samurai Rebellion is not about some big battle as the title might suggest. Rather it is a critique of the samurai class itself. That comes in two forms. It begins by criticizing how samurai lords had concubines and then attacks their arbitrary power. One samurai family led by Toshiro Mifune decides to stand up to the power of their lord and fight for themselves against the clan. This is a very unusual story for Japanese cinema which usually lauded the samurai for their honor and tradition. Films also emphasized the group over the individual. Here it’s a family so it’s still a unit, but their determination to stand up for what they feel is right against the powers that be has an individualist spirit.<br /><br />There are some great images that go along with the theme. For instance Mifune walks out into a rock garden which has been nicely raked and leaves his footprints all over it as he talks about overturning senseless convention. The garden obviously represents order and Mifune’s prints the path he and his family are taking against the grain.<br /><br />Even then the movie couldn’t escape the constraints of the genre and ended up having a very Japanese conclusion. | The movie title "Samurai Rebellion (The Criterion Collection) [DVD]," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 206 reviewers.

2 | Exaggerated characters & ultra-violence but story was inconsistent | Hobo With A Shotgun was inspired by a fake ad that appeared in the Grindhouse movie. Rather than reminding me of Quentin Tarantino or Robert Rodriguez however it was more like the Crank series starring Jason Statham especially Crank 2. That’s due to its exaggerated characters and ultra violence. An example of that is when two bad guys get on a school bus and burn a bunch of kids with a flame thrower while another holds up two boom boxes playing Disco Inferno. The chorus goes “Burn, Baby Burn, Disco Inferno.”<br /><br />The movie features Rutger Hauer taking on a group of local lowlifes led by Brian Downey. He wanders from place to place running into criminals which he then dispatches in bloody fashion. I found the story a bit inconsistent with some scenes working and others not. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.4 from 1532 reviewers.

1 | 1/4 of the film is stock footage from two earlier Gamera films | Daiei Film had finally figured out how to make a successful monster movie after three tries with Gamera. This was the fourth release in the franchise and it took a step backwards. It originally came out in Japan as Gamera vs Viras, but for the American audience it was called Destroy All Planets.<br /><br />Things start with an alien race wanting to colonize Earth only to have the big turtle run into them and destroy their ship. By this time Gamera had gone from a menace to humanity to its protector.<br /><br />Gamera had also always been a children’s movie. The first film for example featured a little kid that loved turtles and then came across Gamera. This one has a group of boy scouts as the main characters. The problem is the movie spends far more time on the kids than the monster.<br /><br />Another issue is it seems like the studio ran out of ideas with this film. Hence there’s a long sequence where the aliens want to find out Gamera’s weaknesses so they just replay the end fight from Gamera vs Barugon.. The fact that Barugon was a horrible looking monster doesn’t make this any better. Then they do the same thing with the third Gamera film Gamera vs Gyaos. There’s nothing that says lack of creative imagination then simply putting in a long scene from an old movie into a new one, and here they did it twice!<br /><br />Gamera was created in response to the Godzilla craze. It was never half as successful due to films like this one. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 3.6 from 8 reviewers.

4 | Does a hitman have a soul? | A Company Man is a Korean crime drama featuring So Jisub as Hyeong-do who is a hitman. At the start he betrays a teen that worked for him and then has second thoughts about what he did. That’s made worse when he goes to the kid’s mother Miyeoon (Lee Mi-Yeon) who was a pop singer that he used to like and he starts having feelings for her. The movie raises the questions if there is still a soul within Hyeong-do after all that he’s done?<br /><br />A Company Man is both stylish and violent and balances out the two sides of Hyeong-do. Sometimes he’s committing a murder or getting yelled at by his boss for not doing a job right. Then he’s with Miyeoon trying to act like he’s a normal person. It shows that he is a complicated and conflicted character. The two worlds will obviously collide. When that happens the movie turns into an all-out gunfest.<br /><br />This is one of the top Korean crime films. There’s good characters, a good plot and lots of action. The climax is especially enjoyable when the main character decides to take on his entire company of hit men. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 336 reviewers.

4 | Inventive story of repeating the same day to fight aliens | Edge of Tomorrow was a very inventive sci-fi action film featuring Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt. The Earth had been invaded by an alien horde called the Mimics. They were marching across the planet but the humans think they can push them back with an invasion of Europe. Cruise takes part in the invasion but is killed by a special mimic. He then wakes up when he first joins his unit. When he’s killed he restarts the day over and over again. It turns out Blunt went through the same experience, together. With the help of Noah Taylor who is a scientist they attempt to find a way to defeat the Mimics.<br /><br />Cruise and Blunt do a good job with their characters. Cruise doesn’t play his usual cocky self. Instead he’s a reluctant hero questioning everything. Blunt on the other hand is the hard edged fighter. They have good chemistry together.<br /><br />The repeating of the day is what’s special about this movie. You would think that going through the same events over and over would get tiring but it really works. There are small variations each time, and sometimes they’re used for comedic effect such as when Blunt is trying to train Cruise on the mechanical suits and he gets injured each time leading Blunt to shoot him so they can start again. The Mimics are also original, and the fight against them is exciting.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 27429 reviewers.

3 | Movie is driven by the cast of quirky characters | In Confess Fletch Jon Hamm takes the character that Chevy Chase started and made it his own. Hamm is involved in a murder mystery where he’s the main suspect. The story is propelled by a number of great characters from Roy Wood Jr as the investigative detective to Kyle MacLachlan as a germophobe to Annie Mumolo as a ditsy neighbor, Lucy Punch as a lifestyle consultant and more. They each get their little part to shine. Hamm is also good delivering dry one liners. The ending I especially liked. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 3.9 from 1363 reviewers.

4 | Just as good as 1st film with politics of early Japanese imperialism | Love Song of Vengeance was the second Lady Snowblood feature and still had Meiko Kaji as Yuki Kashima, the lead.<br /><br />Things get off to a quick start as Lady Snowblood takes down a whole bunch of swordsmen who are trying to ambush her. Then she’s set upon by a group of policemen who want her for all the murders she’s responsible for. This is a good sign that the film will be about the action as much as the story, which was what made this two film franchise so successful.<br /><br />Like the first installment, there’s a bit of historical background to things. The film comes just after the 1905 Russo-Japanese War that started Japanese imperialism. That caused economic and political unrest in the country. Hence Yuki is arrested, and then released in return for agreeing to kill an anarchist named Ransui Tokunaga (Juzo Itami). This was part of a larger government crackdown upon political dissent. Yuki’s sympathy for the underdog leads her to Tokunaga’s side. The first movie was about vigilante justice. This one is political about the poor of Japan who were left out of the militarism that was taking over the country. It’s just as good as the first film. | The movie title "Lady Snowblood - Love Song of Vengeance," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.5 from 56 reviewers.

4 | A despised woman is thrust onto the thrown as everyone plots against her | The opening credits provide the setting of the film. It’s 1554 in England after King Henry VIII has died. His daughter Mary (Kathy Burke) is the queen but she has no children. She then passes leaving the thrown to her half-sister Elizabeth (Cate Blanchett) who is a Protestant. The country is already divided between Catholics and Protestants and it’s feared that Elizabeth’s ascension will only make the situation worse. The story is not only about the struggle of Elizabeth to hold the thrown in such a tumultuous period when everyone around her is plotting, but also about her love life as she is under pressure to marry and have a child to ensure her rule.<br /><br />The situation Elizabeth finds her in is encapsulated in one scene. Joseph Fiennes as Lord Robert Dudley who is Catholic and wants to keep the thrown with his sect tells his aide to make sure Sir Francis Walsingham (Geoffrey Rush) who is a Protestant does not return to London. Walsingham’s servant is about to stab him but is talked out of it. Then Walsingham cuts the servant’s throat. These were the people and the means they would use to control the crown and what Elizabeth had to deal with.<br /><br />Blanchett does a great job with her part. She has to grow into being queen since she is not only a novice but a Protestant and despised as a result. You see her building up strength. There’s one scene where she faces the bishops that personifies her intelligence and wit that was so necessary to rule. It’s a strong message about feminism.<br /><br />The movie is really great. There is tons of intrigue, drama and great acting.<br />C | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 4441 reviewers.

3 | Middle of the movie isn't as interesting as the beginning and end | Apology For Murder is a new Film Noir I found off the Internet. It captured my attention because it featured Ann Savage who was in one of my favorite Noir’s Detour where she played a master manipulator. Here she’s paired with Hugh Beaumont from Leave It To Beaver of all people. She plays a Femme Fatale again reeling in Beaumont into her plot.<br /><br />There’s two great scenes where Savage uses her legs to try to seduce Beaumont. The two have some snappy exchanges with the type of dialogue that the best Noir was famous for. Most of the film is about Beaumont being manipulated. It starts off great but then kind of fades in interest.

4 | Great comedy re-boot of Shaft | The 2019 version of Shaft was really a re-boot. The first one had Samuel L. Jackson playing the tough guy private detective in a straight action movie that failed to capture the appeal of the 1970s original. The new movie threw that model away and became a comedy-action flick, and it really worked.<br /><br />The story starts with Samuel L. Jackson as Shaft hooking up with Regina Hall as Maya in the 1980s and having a baby JJ, played as an adult by Jessie Usher. When he was still a child they were attacked by a mobster named Gordito played by Isaach de Bankole. That broke up the family with Hall trying to make sure JJ would be nothing like his dead. They then skip through the years where Jackson sends one inappropriate birthday gift to Usher after another such as a box of condoms or a bunch of adult magazines. By the time Usher is an adult he is a straight and narrow computer analyst for the FBI. When his friend is killed he seeks to find out who did it. He is completely unqualified for that job as he goes to a drug den and gets knocked out. That leads him to contact his father for help. That sets up an odd couple type scenario with Usher being the square and Jackson being the wise-cracking, street smart bad a**. That also leads to most of the comedy as Jackson makes fun of nearly everything about his son from his clothes to his apartment to his inexperience with women. Jackson basically wants Usher to become a uncompromising man like himself. When Hall finds out the two are working together she gets to release her own barrage of remarks about Jackson and how he was a delinquent dad who brings nothing but trouble.<br /><br />The movie was hilarious with one liners and jokes from start to finish. The audience I saw it with was laughing the hole time. | The movie title "Shaft (2019) (DVD)," available on Movies & TV, has received an average rating of 4.6 from 10708 reviewers.

The lions kills for no reason and out smart humans. Kilmer and Douglas play the great white hunters.

3 | Great on Fela but wasted almost 1/2 movie on a Broadway play about him | Fela Kuti was one of the greatest musical artists from Africa. He not only helped usher in Afrobeat mixing Highlight, Soul, Funk and Jazz but he was also a political activist criticizing the military dictatorships that ran his homeland of Nigeria. There is plenty of footage of Fela and interviews with him along with lots of talking heads expounding about him. The music is obviously the highlight as well as the insights into his political development. The main drawback is the focus upon the Broadway play Fela. The documentary constantly goes back to the play as if it was the starting point for the entire production. Really? They couldn’t find more footage of Fela explaining himself or more talking heads they had to constantly interview the director of the play, him directing the cast during rehearsals, and show scenes from the play? I don’t care about this Broadway play I just want to see Fela. | The movie title "None," available on Prime Video, has received an average rating of 4.7 from 118 reviewers.
