Great style & music but was an average hesit plot
When Baby Driver came out in 2017 it was touted as a new type of action film because writer-director Edgar Wright syncopated the scenes with music. As it turned out the movie was an average heist flick. It had the main character Miles aka Baby (Ansel Elgort) being a good guy, but he lives a life of crime being a getaway driver for a bunch of schemers and sociopaths who are going to rob the U.S. Postal Service made up of Doc (Kevin Spacey), Buddy (John Hamm), Darling (Eiza Gonzalez), and Bats (Jamie Foxx). His situation is made worse when he meets a girl named Debora (Lily James). The dilemma was whether Baby could extract himself from the crooks he’d fallen in with.<br /><br />The opening scene shows what the film is going to be like. Baby is being a driver for Buddy, Darling and one other person who are robbing a bank. The music starts right away and Baby starts pounding on everything in the car to go along with the beat. Wright got more stylistic later on such as when Baby is walking down the street listening to “The Harlem Shuffle” and lyrics appear on light polls, a music store with a bunch of horns in the window appears when the brass crank up in the song, etc. The problem was the style didn’t make the story any better.<br /><br />You can predict how things will turn out at the end. It’s not a bad plot and the music was an added bonus, but it just wasn’t as great as everyone was trying to say this flick was going to be.<br />C

1 of the Shaw Brothers all-time classics
36th Chamber of Shaolin is an all-time classic Shaw Brothers film featuring Gordon Liu. It plays upon a common trope of Hong Kong films of the Han Chinese struggling against the Manchus who ruled the country. That’s struck home by Liu’s teacher who talks about patriotic Chinese who are fighting to liberate their country. He inspires Liu to join the resistance which eventually forces him to flee to the Shaolin Temple where he learns martial arts. The story developed this theme more than others of the time which just took it for granted since they were for a Chinese audience that knew their history.<br /><br />The movie is known for its extensive training sequences which were always a mainstay of Kung Fu films. This one however had Liu and the others at Shaolin going through several levels hence the title. It’s one of the main draws even more than the fighting.<br /><br />It was also highly influential. The first scene where a Chinese resistance fighter jumps from a roof into the middle of a Manchu procession might be familiar to some as it was borrowed by Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Another time Liu has to carry water as part of his routine at Shaolin which was referenced in Kill Bill Vol. 2 which also had Liu in it. Finally it helped spread the myth of Shaolin Kung Fu around the world.

Jason Patric as the nonchalant villain and pre-Capt America Chris Evans make the film
The Losers was based upon a comic book. It’s about a group of soldiers who get betrayed by their boss Jason Patric and seek revenge with the help of Zoe Saldana. Patric is really good as the bad guy. Yes he’s ruthless just like other villains but he’s so nonchalant about what he does which adds some real character to him. Out of the soldiers Chris Evans stands out. This was pre-Marvel, pre-Captain America. He’s like a nerd that won’t shut up. He has a funny scene where he’s singing Journey’s Don’t Stop Believing in an elevator.

Brooding psychological thriller baed around the 7 deadly sins
Se7en was David Fincher’s second movie and what an impact he made with it. Kevin Spacey is killing people based upon the seven deadly sins. Each one is murdered in a gruesome way meant to show what Spacey thinks is wrong with modern society. Morgan Freeman plays the veteran cerebral detective and Brad Pitt his young and antsy partner who are on the case. It plays out like a psychological crime drama with Freeman and Pitt going through Spacey’s clues to try to catch him. It is very dark and moody and the conflict between Freeman and Pitt in how to pursue the case just adds to the tension. Each death is especially grisly and some of the later ones can’t even be shown. They’re just left to the imagination. In true Fincher fashion the movie is filmed in all dark tones to go along with the subject matter. It’s only towards the end that the light and sun appears to symbolize that Freeman and Pitt are seeing the end of the case. What a conclusion as well involving envy and wrath. It makes for a real classic.

An exploration of the intl arms trade and its costs to the world
Lord Of War is a great story about an international arms dealer and his trials and tribulations that has a larger message about the weapons trade which kills millions of people each year. The movie begins with Yuri Orlov (Nicolas Cage) saying there are 550 million weapons, enough for 1 out of every 12 people in the world and he wanted to know how he could sell guns to the other 11.<br /><br />Yuri would sell to any and everyone and get into some harrowing situations like dealing with the crazed dictator of Liberia Andre Baptiste (Eamonn Walker). With that money he got his dream girl Ava (Bridget Moynahan) and had a son. Despite the dangers it seemed like he had the world. That was an illusion. The story shows the toll his business would have on the world and his family. It also emphasizes the huge profits and millions of dollars people like Yuri make off of the business which is based upon killing. That’s the first part of the message.<br /><br />Later he gets in trouble with the law but gets released because the U.S. government needs him to support its foreign policy in the developing world. This is the second part. The arms trade is protected by the First World who use the trade to prop up friendly governments and get rid of ones they dislike. The victims are people in the developing world who get killed left and right every day because of the whims of the powerful.<br /><br />Overall this was a bold stance to take. Other Hollywood films would have just stuck to Yuri and his family and gotten melodramatic about the story’s impact upon them. Instead it decided to take on the arms trade head on and they did a great job with a great script.

Never gets interesting
The story takes place in a future where people are genetically engineered. They get to pick their traits before they are even conceived. Those who are considered defective become a permanent underclass and are given the lowest jobs in society. Ethan Hawke as Vincent was born with all kinds of imperfections so he posed as someone else Jerome Morrow and joined the Gattaca Corporation with dreams of going into outer space which he’d wanted to do since childhood. The story revolves around whether he will be discovered or not.<br /><br />The problem is that the plot never seems to develop. When a police investigation is started that might expose Vincent it doesn’t seem like anything important happens. He just goes about his day to day activities. It’s not until the last third that something finally develops and even then it isn’t interesting. As a result, the climax with its message about genetics don’t matter just the person fails to deliver.<br />C

Successful attempt to get back to the roots of the James Bond series
For Your Eyes Only was an attempt by Eon Productions to return to a story inspired by Ian Flemming’s James Bond books. That’s shown right at the start as Bond’s longtime foe Ernst Stavro Blofeld of SPECTRE attempts to kill Bond (Roger Moore) by taking over a helicopter he’s riding in. The plot revolves around Bond attempting to recover a British defense communication system before the Soviets get it. Along the way Bond runs into rival businessmen, a woman seeking revenge, and a very young and impressionable ice skater that falls in love with him.<br /><br />The film was largely successful in getting back to the roots of the series. The previous two films, The Spy Who Loved Me and Moonraker suffered from ridiculous plots. Moonraker also began to mock itself and the franchise. For Your Eyes Only had a much more straight forward and believable story and events. It was nice to see that Eon Productions hadn’t lost sight of what a Bond film was supposed to be about.<br />C

Ups and downs of adult relationships
This movie is about opposites attracting. Robert Redford plays a good looking college sports star while Barbra Streisand is a bookish leader of the Young Communists. One is popular the other a reject. I really liked the story arc because it wasn’t just about their attraction it followed them in the years afterward. It also showed how relationship go through ups and downs making it much more believable. Redford and Streisand were great showing smarts and passion and were just as good arguing with each other as loving each other. It also involves politics from the Spanish civil war to the Red Scare after World War II. Excellent film.

Coming of age story mixed in with an abusive father
Rockaway is a different kind of coming of age story. That’s because two little kids James DiGiacomo and Keidrich Sellati dream about killing their father Wass Stevens who beats them and their mother. One moment the two brothers are playing basketball, the next they come home to see their mother with a bruise on her mouth and the father threatening to kill them. Most of the movie is actually about the two having fun with their friends. That makes the abuse all the more shocking because the brothers come home from a great day and find their father. It really is a stark contrast because most of the movie seems like it is aimed at kids. It makes for a very appealing movie about the joys and hardships of life.

Dropped horror of original for action but still great
Aliens was the much anticipated sequel to the fantastic sci-fi film Alien. The movie took a completely different direction however. Instead of emphasizing the horror aspect, Aliens was an action movie with lots of aliens and lots of shooting to try to stop them. That’s largely because the franchise went from Ridley Scott who did the original to James Cameron.<br /><br />Sigourney Weaver returned as Ellen Ripley the sole survivor from the first movie. Unbeknownst to her, the company she worked for still wants to capture the alien she ran into and turn it into a weapon. They talk her into going back to the planet she found the alien on in the first film which was now colonized. The action then ensues as Ripley fights for her life to survive an onslaught of aliens.<br /><br />Despite the change in direction Aliens is still a great movie. There are aliens popping out of stomachs. A giant alien horde, and a bigger surprise later on.<br />C

Too long and dragged out to be enjoyable
When I first heard about Midsommar when it came out in the theaters I thought it would be like the 1970s Wicker Man film where some people stumble upon paganism in what they thought was a traditional celebration. What I got was a very slow moving and boring film. It took one hour for something notable to happen. It was a memorable event but then it took forever for something else to happen. This would be the pattern. There would be one scene of horror and then a long wait for the next one. This destroyed any sense of tension being created because everything was so spaced out. At two and a half hours it was simply too long and too dragged out.

Personality driven murder case/courtroom drama
If you like courtroom dramas then you should check out Presumed Innocent. Harrison Ford is the deputy district attorney accused of killing a co-worker he had an affair with. What stands out isn’t the case but the personalities of the main characters.<br /><br />Ford plays his part as a beat down man. That’s shown by his worn look. The only time he looks like he has some life is when he was with the victim because she was a break from his routine. He was also a bit of a stalker. His fate is made more difficult as he gets caught in the middle of office politics.<br /><br />Raul Julia is Ford’s lawyer. He is very smart and calculating. He lays down some sharp jabs in court. Paul Winfield is the judge. In his first scene he gives a speech about the use of language which is hilarious. He’s also very opinionated throughout the trial. Joe Grifasi is the prosecuting attorney and comes off as a weasel.

Works as a murder mystery and a statement about black people standing up for themselves
In The Heat Of The Night is the famous crime drama featuring Sidney Poitier which is also about race relations. That’s shown at the start when Poitier is brought into the police station simply because he was black. Police officer Warren Oates immediately thought he was responsible for a murder because of his color when in fact he was a cop from Philadelphia. The story is about Poitier and police chief Rod Steiger being forced together to investigate a recent killing. The dilemma of course is whether they can actually cooperate or not.<br /><br />The movie is all about the interactions between Poitier and the white inhabitants of the Mississippi town he finds himself in. That includes the famous exchange where Poitier says, “They call me Mr. Tibbs!” Or another time when he gets slapped when questioning a man and slaps him back. I can only imagine what audiences thought of those scenes in 1967.<br /><br />Overall, the film is a satisfying murder mystery and even better to watch Poitier stand up for himself against racists.

Adventure in Africa dealing with European imperialism while not always taking itself seriously
This is a movie about European imperialism in Africa. It has some stark images like a massacre in a village with bodies strewn on the ground and more hanging from trees. The Germans are the main culprits. At the same time the movie doesn’t take itself seriously all the time. That usually comes in the form of Lee Marvin volunteering Roger Moore for some daring mission against the Germans which will inevitably threaten life and limb. Of course they had to throw in the arbitrary love story which is never really necessary. My one complaint is that the movie is so long. It clocks in at just under two hours and a half. That’s just far too long.

Really needed some better writing to save it
Scream 2 was part slasher film part spoof of the genre. I don’t know if that mix worked. The start is sooo overacted but that was on purpose. Then it throws in elements of teen romance when Jerry O’Connell gets up on tables in the middle of the college cafeteria to sing to Neve Campbell. Those parts were so distracting you didn’t care about the killings. Of course there’s the big ending where the killer is revealed and then even more twists and turns. I really thought the start ruined things for this movie however. This really needed some better writing to save it.

Brutal and compelling Stands right up there with the best mafia movies
American Me is a brutal but compelling crime drama about the Mexican Mafia. It has a first person commentary by Edward James Olmos who also directed the movie about how he created his gang inside prison. The first part goes beyond most movies to detail how the Mafia ran institutions. It is really graphic from how it smuggled in drugs to how it enforced its control. The second part is when Olmos is released and sees a world outside of prison but can’t escape it. Olmos is perfect for the role. He starts off being cut throat and then shows he has a heart. Overall, the movie emphasizes how gangs talk about being families but they aren’t. They will turn on their own in a second because all they care about is power and money and will get rid of anyone that stands in their way. It makes American Me stand right up there with the best mafia pictures.

Even under the worse dictatorships acts of resistance are possible
In Nazi Germany what could one man and woman do to resist Adolf Hitler? That’s the topic of Alone In Berlin. Brendan Gleeson and his wife Emma Thompson are bereaved over the loss of their son who was a soldier in the German army. Gleeson decides to write small postcards denouncing Hitler and placing them around the city. The first part of the film is about their loss and then their defiance of Nazism. The second part becomes a cat and mouse game as they are hunted by police inspector Daniel Bruhl. He plays a complicated figure. He is a committed policeman dedicated to collecting clues and evidence. At the same time he is offended by the SS and their brutality who he has to work for. It raises the question of why he is doing his job.<br /><br />Overall Alone In Berlin is a powerful story and based upon true events. It shows that humanity can still exist in the worst dictatorships and the strong minded can find ways, no matter how big or small, to fight against the system of oppression. Gleeson and Thompson are fantastic in their roles and cute as well as their effort brings them closer together after the tragedy they went through. Bruhl is great as well.

An unlikely heist story
Naked Singularity is the most unlikeliest of heist films. John Boyega is a public defender and Olivia Cooke is one of his clients. They decide to try to create some of their own fate by ripping off some crooks.<br /><br />I’ve always liked Boyega since I saw him in Attack The Block. Here he even gets to wield a samurai sword again just like in that film. His character is appealing as someone who is disgusted with the criminal justice system.<br /><br />There’s some dark comedy thrown in as well and enough to make you think the justice system is broken as well.

I only watched this rom-com because I’m a sucker for John Cusack. The story is a whimsical tale about whether fate wants Cusack and Kate Beckinsale together.

Ode to 50s monster flicks that's not afraid to poke fun at itself
Eight Legged Freaks was a throwback to the monster movies of yesteryear, specifically the 1950s when the post-World War II-Atomic Age led screen writers to create huge giant monsters.<br /><br />The setting is Prosperity, Arizona where a truck gets into an accident and loses a canister of chemical agents. That gets into the environment and infects some crickets that are collected by a man who feeds them to his collection of spiders. They are transformed into an army of giant eight legged freaks that set upon the town.<br /><br />What’s good about the movie is that it does not take itself seriously at all. It’s not scared to poke fun at itself. For instance, a cat gets into a fight with a spider inside the dry wall of a house. A miner tries to unplug a tube by sucking it and inhales a mouth full of spiders.<br /><br />At the same time, it’s great to see the arachnids attack people. There are leaping spiders that jump on a bunch of motorcyclists. There are others that spin webs around people, and others that are good old bitters.<br /><br />Overall Eight Legged Freaks is great fun.<br />C

Thought could've done more with this story of female crime family
It’s the Great Depression and Angie Dickinson is leading her two daughters in a life of crime across Texas and California. They start off running moonshine and end up kidnapping an heiress. I have to say I was expecting a bit more from this film. Yes, there’s some gun play and crime, but I just thought they could’ve done more with the story. It just wasn’t exciting. The one surprise was William Shatner showing up as a hustler who joins Dickinson’s gang.

Tough and beautiful Pam Grier is ready to throw down
Pam Grier is strong, independent, beautiful and most importantly can throw down. I could watch her all day and Sheba, Baby is no exception. One moment she’s going home to see her dad, the next she’s pulling a gun on a hustler. This built upon the reputation she’d made for herself in movies like Coffy and Foxy Brown where she finally became not only the lead but an action star as well.

Can Paul Newman's spirit be broken by prison?
Cool Hand Luke is about Paul Newman’s spirit and whether it could be broken. He’s put in prison and works on a chain gang where he tests the system and it tests him. One time he turns a monotonous and tiring job of covering a road with sand in the heat into a fun competition. Another time he’s thrown into solitary confinement.<br /><br />Newman is great in the role. He has a sly smile on his face that is often as much about him enjoying life as it is mocking the authorities. George Kennedy as another prisoner also stands out as he becomes inspired by Newman.<br /><br />There’s also an iconic scene with Joy Harmon washing a car as the prisoners look on and fantasize her.

Stands up for the poor in postwar Japan
Few people remember how completely miserable and broken down Japanese society was after World War II. Cities were full of huge slums and most people were poor and struggling. That’s the setting for Killing Machine featuring Soy Chiba who plays the real life Doshin So who established his own martial arts school in post-War Japan.<br /><br />Chiba plays a Robin Hood type character. He watches over a community and protects them from the many predators. That leads to all the action and there’s plenty of it. In fact, most of the movie is just setting up an opportunity for Chiba to beat someone up. There is one amazing scene where Chiba seeks revenge on some gangster for raping a girl where he takes their privates! It’s quite a scene you’re sure not to forget. There are some other bloody scenes since it is Japanese exploitation.<br /><br />The great Sonny Chiba recently passed away which inspired me to check out more of his movies. Killing Machine is one of his better releases.

Shows how utteraly naive and dangerous this group was
At the end of the 1960s a breakaway group from the anti-Vietnam War Students For A Democratic Society formed the revolutionary Weather Underground. Believing that their non-violent actions had done nothing to stop the war they decided that only violence could change things. The ideas and actions of the group are the focus of this documentary.<br /><br />What stands out about the group is how naive and dangerous they were. One section for instance is about embracing free sex as a means to create a new society. Having orgies to try to get rid of monogamy is not going to lead to a revolution. Many of the members were also completely honest about how unprepared they were for their task. They were mostly middle class white college students who’d lived privileged lives now talking about taking up the gun. Then there was their initial direct action like smashing windows, getting into street fights with the cops, etc. during the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago. Again, how was that going to change things? It basically made a lot of people mad. Even other leftist groups like the Black Panthers criticized them that time. When the group got more refined goals like bringing the war home to the U.S. they were still out of their minds. They were talking about almost everyone in America is guilty of the Vietnam War and therefore they are all legitimate targets and they wanted to launch the biggest terrorist attacks they could to make them pay. That’s madness. They eventually got over that but the fact that was what they were thinking shows how out of touch they were.<br /><br />The other big take away from the film is how much law enforcement broke the law to try to capture and destroy the Weather Underground. It’s utterly ironic.<br /><br />The movie does a good job placing the Weather Underground in the context of the 1960s with the Vietnam War, Richard Nixon being elected president and other revolutionary groups like the Black Panthers. It’s definitely an interesting documentary.

Pace of the story is too slow
The name of the movie is Melinda but it’s really about Calvin Lockhart. The movie comes in two parts. The first is his love affair with Vonetta McGee. The second half is about someone trying to set him up and turns into a mystery action flick. As usual a powerful white man is behind everything. The story suffers from a slow pace especially when it deals with the Lockhart-McGee romance. Even when Lockhart is on the run the story doesn’t move enough to keep you interested. Jim Kelly makes a special appearance.

Where does authority come from, The mob or officials with popular support?
Henry Fonda is a bounty hunter who enters a small town where he becomes the mentor to a young and fresh sheriff played by Anthony Perkins. It’s obvious from the first start that Perkins is out of his element. He doesn’t even know how to use his guns for one. The movie eventually becomes about Fonda saving Perkins from his own follies. That’s all pretty routine. The interesting thing is the subplot which is about where authority comes from. Is it the mob that decides right and wrong or is it the authorities who also need popular support? It makes Tin Star stand out from your usual Western.

When mental health wasn't about helping people
I loved this movie as a kid and even read the book in high school. It centers around Jack Nicholson who is sent from prison to an institution for a psychological evaluation. There he tries to shake up the routine and get the patients to rebel against the system of control within the hospital.<br /><br />The movie is all about the characters starting with Nicholson. He has the gift of gab and is subversive to the core. For instance, the chief nurse Louise Fletcher refuses to play the World Series on the TV so Nicholson starts his own play by play which draws many of the patients to him cheering and screaming. The look on Fletcher’s face is priceless as she is completely contemptuous of Nicholson. What happens to him is a tragedy and a condemnation of how mental health in the past had nothing to do with helping people. The ending is classic as well.

They found out it has created agiant crab hence the title. One of the main characters is Russell Johnson who played the Professor on Gilligan’s Island. For a B movie it’s not bad. They actually built a giant crab instead of going cheap and just showing close-ups of real crabs. It’s also really short at just around an hour so they couldn’t blow it by dragging things out.

Lea Seydoux's history comes to haunt her and can Craig fully commit to her?
I saw this on opening night when it came out in a theater and I thought it was a good send off for Roger Craig but not his best Bond. That’s the reason why I wanted to view it again to see if my opinion changed or not the second time around. It did for the better.<br /><br />The film has an interesting start. Instead of the usual big action sequence with Craig it was a flashback to Lea Seydoux’s childhood when she was traumatized by an attack upon her family. Then it switches to the present with Seydoux and Craig discussing their relationship. He still holds back about his past, namely Vesper Lynd/Eva Green from Casino Royale. These will be the two pressing issues of No Time To Die. First, how Seydoux’s history is coming back to haunt the couple and whether Craig can fully commit to her.<br /><br />The cast was a good mix of old and new. It was nice to see Jeffrey Wright again as the CIA’s Felix Leiter. Who really stood out however was Lashana Lynch as Craig’s replacement. The two play well off each other as rivals and then partners. Ana de Armas was also outstanding and completely surprised me with her gun sequence. Both were a play upon the usual Bond girls who were mostly eye candy.<br /><br />One of my main complaints when I originally saw this was that it was too long. At 2 hours and 40 minutes I thought they just dragged things out a bit too much. After the second time seeing it however I felt like it was fine.<br /><br />Overall I appreciated No Time To Die more.

Empathetic view of artist Toulouse Lautrec
Moulin Rouge portrays artist Henri Toulouse Lautrec as an outsider artist in France and creates a lot of empathy for the character.<br /><br />The start of the movie tries to capture Paris in 1890 which inspired Lautrec specifically the night clubs with dancing and singing women with all the action, colors and sex appeal.<br /><br />It’s easy to see that Lautrec’s disability and the discrimination he faced because of it led him to align with the outcasts of society like dance hall girls, prostitutes, etc. He tells his mother that in one scene. Mixed in with that is Lautrec’s desire for love and his biting wit and insecurity which often got in his way. It makes him a tragic figure and someone you have sympathy for. It’s really very melancholy.

Suffers from bad writing and overacting
Golden Gate is about Matt Damon’s guilt over what he did to Tzi Ma which leads him to Ma’s daughter Joan Chen. Most of the movie was filmed in location in San Francisco Chinatown and it was written by playwright David Henry Hwang. One of the main drawbacks is that Dillon consistently overacts his part. He also has a girlfriend who just gives political diatribes almost every time she opens her mouth. Added to that there are some really bad lines. Those all become real distractions. On the positive side they include the Asian American movement from the 1960s which was fun to see people talking about sticking it to the man and Asian stereotypes. Still the bad outweighed the good in the end.

1 of Zhang's best about a women who is trapped in the life of a concubine
Raise The Red Lantern was the fourth film by director Zhang Yimou.<br /><br />The opening scene sets up the entire movie. There’s a close up of Songlian (Gong Li) who is talking to her mother. She says she agrees to get married but she has no say in the matter. She says she will marry a rich man like her mother wants and become his concubine. Afterall Songlian notes that’s the fate of women. Meaning to be used by men. She then starts crying and the camera just focuses upon the tears running down her face. It’s a very emotional and powerful start. There will be plenty more tears as well.<br /><br />The story involves Songlian getting into a power struggle with all the other women in the household. It’s full of pettiness, deception and betrayal. Her home which is a huge mansion becomes like a cage for her and she and others pay the consequences. The intro only gave you a hint of what she was in store for. It’s one of Zhang’s best movies.<br />C

Wasted the talent of Wilder-Pryor because didn't know what kind of movie it wanted to be
Silver Streak featured the dynamic duo of Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor. The problem was the story was all over the place. First it’s a romance as Wilder meets Jill Clayburgh on the Silver Streak train to Chicago. Then it’s a murder mystery as Clayburgh’s boss an art professor is killed. Then it turns into a comedy when Pryor shows up. Finally it becomes an action movie. If they had just stuck to 1 or 2 of those themes it would have been much better.<br /><br />The best parts of the movie featuring Wilder and Pryor playing off each other. There’s one famous scene when Wilder is on the run from the policy and Pryor throws some make up on him to try to pass him off as black. It is hilarious. The rest of the film in comparison is just okay which is a shame because it really wasted Wilder and Pryor’s talent.<br />C

Baldwin exposed America's existential dilemma of its ideals vs how it actually treated black people
I Am Not Your Negro is a 2016 documentary about author James Baldwin. It features Samuel L. Jackson as the narrator. The film explores Baldwin’s thoughts and ideas on America and its problems with race. It takes an unfinished book he started as a jumping off point to explore his opinions.<br /><br />Remember This House was to be a story of America portrayed through three of Baldwin’s slain friends, NAACP member Medgar Evers, Martin Luther King Jr, and Malcolm X. Unfortunately, the author never wrote more than 30 pages of notes. Baldwin wanted to play the three men against each other because they were so very different to bring out some truths about the period. King and Malcolm for example grew up with completely opposite backgrounds and had divergent ideas on how to deal with racism. Malcolm relentlessly attacked King and his non-violent approach for example calling him an Uncle Tom. By the time of his death however, he had come closer to King’s ideas. What Baldwin admired about all three men was that they exposed the hypocrisy and moral bankruptcy of the United States. As Baldwin said in one TV interview, whites denied that blacks were even human beings. In so doing they had become monsters. Evers, King and Malcolm would eventually lose their lives in this struggle for the soul of America.<br /><br />The manuscript is only a small part of I Am Not Your Negro however as it is really about Baldwin’s ideas about race in the United States. He talked about his elementary school teacher who taught him about the world, and made him realize that not all white people were bad. He commented upon how he grew up watching Westerns rooting on the cowboys for killing Indians, only later to realize that the Indians were him, meaning African Americans and other minorities who were the lesser other that were to be subjugated and eliminated to make way for whites. Baldwin was also an iconoclast. He wasn’t in the Nation of Islam because he didn’t think all whites were devils. He wasn’t part of a Christian church because he knew whites didn’t follow its commandments. He didn’t join the NAACP because where he grew up in New York it was an elitist, upper class organization. He spoke about how blacks were the exploited free labor that helped build the country. This is really the heart of the film. Baldwin was an activist and an intellectual of his times who would constantly write, speak and comment upon racism and how it was rotting out the core of the country. He dug down deep into what America said it stood for and how it actually treated black folk. This wasn’t about an individual problem such as a racist cop, but an existential dilemma for the future of the United States.<br /><br />Overall I Am Not Your Negro has it’s good and bad sides. Most importantly Baldwin was an eloquent speaker and thinker with deep and biting comments about America and how it had failed to live up to its ideals of freedom and democracy. On the other hand, the movie could have been better edited. It tries to break up Baldwin’s ideas into different categories, but many of them overlap. I think the problem director Raoul Peck might have run into was that there was so much material to choose from he found it hard to say no.

One of the best ever coming of age films Smart funny & not afraid of a little politics
Flirting is one of the greatest coming of age stories put to film. When it came out in 1991 I must have seen it at least five or six times in the theater.<br /><br />It was directed by John Duigan as the second installment of an autobiographical tale that started with The Year My Voice Broke featuring Noah Taylor as the lead Danny Embling. The first movie was about Embling growing up in the Australian outback and falling in love. Flirting had him going to St Albans boarding school where he found his soul mate Thandie Newton in her first role as Thandiwe Adjewa a Urgandan exchange student who goes to Cirencester Ladies’ College across the way from St Albans.<br /><br />The movie is full of dry humor, one liners, pseudo intellectualism, and a real sense of growing up as a teenager when your hormones are popping and all you can think about is the opposite sex. Embling and his best friend Les Hill as Greg Gilmore are total outcasts, trying to maneuver through the “herd mentality” of their classmates. They fancy themselves as thinking men to set themselves apart. During a rugby match Embling says he views it through an anthropological lens believing it to be a mating ritual where the men display themselves on the field to attract the attention of the opposite sex. This is also where he first catches the eye of Adjewa. They two prove to be of like minds during a debate over whether the intellect is more important than the physical. There Adjewa gives a speech about how the song Tutti Frutti shows the base nature of human beings. Later, Embling gets pummeled in a boxing match only to see French existentialist Jean-Paul Sartre right before he’s knocked out.<br /><br />The film isn’t afraid to deal with race and politics either. Adjewa is the only black person at her school and gets plenty of racist comments. When Embling thinks of her he realizes he knows little about Africa other than what he saw in comics and the movies like Tarzan. While that plays out on the screen all he can think about is the beautiful names of the rivers and cities. It turns out Adjewa’s dad is an African nationalist who lost his first wife during the Mau Mau revolt in Kenya.<br /><br />Flirting also features Nicole Kidman an upperclassman at Cirencester who has a tough exterior but turns out to have a warm heart.<br /><br />Really, this is as close to perfection as you can find. There’s a real innocence to the love affair between Embling and Adjewa, and the ending is so bitter sweet.<br />C

With his slight stature, obstinate stutter and love for existentialism, Danny (Taylor) doesn't quite fit in at his rugby-dominated boys' school. But then he falls for radiant, intellectual Thandiwe (Newton)an African student ostracized by the icy clique leader (Kidman) of a nearby girls' school. Despite meddling classmates, imperious teachers and a lake separating their schools, Danny and Thandiwe's romance blossoms...until a crisis threatens to take Thandiwe away forever. *2001: Actress, Moulin Rouge.

Might be the funniest Madea film
Tyler Perry started off making plays which followed the same script every time. There was a woman who needed to be saved by finding the right man and returning to the Lord. Thrown in there would be Perry showing up as Madea for some laughs and some songs. When he started making movies he dropped the music but stuck to the rest of the script. Slowly but surely however he moved towards straight comedies. In Madea’s Big Happy Family there was still a woman in need, Loretta Devine, but the comedy was dominant. For instance, Cassi Davis starts off flirting with a doctor and then David Mann finds out what a colonoscopy is. I think this was the perfect mix because the story of Devine was engaging and the jokes were really good. I think this might be the funniest of them all.

Tries to change the superhero genre but not quite
Hancock was an attempt to change the usual superhero story. This time the main character John Hancock (Will Smith) was a disinterested character. He really didn’t like fighting bad guys and would rather drink instead. He was also careless and usually did as much harm as good. It wasn’t until a struggling public relations executive named Ray Embrey (Jason Bateman) takes an interest in him that Hancock tries to straighten his act out. The problem is Ray’s wife Mary (Charlize Theron) has history with Hancock that complicates everything.<br /><br />How Hancock was different from your run of the mill hero flick was that he doesn’t really care and when he chooses to intervene he usually screws things up. He’s set up as an anti-hero at first. Booze is his friend and bad guys are just an annoyance.<br /><br />Along the way there are plenty of jokes as well like when Hancock saves Ray and then insults the crowd that gathered around. One guy says that Ray should sue Hancock for the damage done to his car. Hancock replies that the man should sue McDonalds for being fat. Again, this is another element of Hancock as the anti-hero. He doesn’t care what people think about him. In fact, he has an adversarial relationship with the public.<br /><br />The story then focuses upon whether Ray can change Hancock into an actual hero. This is where the story actually becomes conventional because you know where it’s going to go.<br /><br />The twist with Mary was unexpected. The problem however was you knew that Hancock was going to change. It was just a matter of how long it would take. That’s why I said this was an attempt to change the superhero genre. It’s still good however and there are plenty of laughs as well.<br />C

Modernizing Shakespeare doesn't always work but this did
Modernizing Shakespeare doesn’t always work but this did. It used the original lines but placed the characters in modern day New York City.

Good but not great adaptation of a manga
Blade of the Immortal was a 2017 Japanese period piece based upon the magna of the same name. It features Takyua Kimura as Manji. He starts off with a price on his head which leads to a massive battle with 50 brigands at the start of the film. He’s killed, but than an apparition makes him immortal. A girl named Rin (Hana Sugisaki) then seeks him out to help her get revenge for her dead father against a group of warriors who are wiping out all the fencing schools in Edo.<br /><br />The draw of the movie is the series of fights Manji gets into with the warriors. Each one has a different weapon and features the manga looks that the story originates from. One for example has a partly burned face and carries heads on his shoulders. Another has porcupine type hair, etc.<br /><br />The first time I saw the film I enjoyed all the swordplay and Manji’s scared look. Upon second viewing it got a little tired with one sword fight after another. So overall Blade of the Immortal is good but not great.<br />C

A commentary on negative campaigns & the media looking for dirt that has taken over US politics
Primary Colors was loosely based upon a book written by reporter Joe Klein about Bill Clinton’s first run for president in 1992. Clinton’s role is played by John Travolta as candidate Jack Stanton. The film deals with the negative campaigns that have taken over American politics where candidates spend most of their time attacking and tearing down each other more than dealing with issues and what they hope to achieve. It also covers how the press will investigate every little detail of candidates looking for any signs of dirt that can get ratings and usually leads to the destruction of the politician. The film is thus a critique of what American democracy has become.<br /><br />The movie deals with these issues in many ways. One is based upon the real story of Gennifer Flowers who had tapes of conversations with Bill Clinton. The second half of the movie is focused upon whether Stanton will go negative and what he’s willing to do. The movie poses the question about what kind of candidate did Stanton want to become. Would he be just like everyone else and tear down his opponents or would he try to stay positive?<br /><br />The movie does a good job talking about American politics even though there are parts that are overdone. There's also a lot of comedy thrown in to keep it light at moments.<br />C

Detective has to fight the soviet bureaucracy to stop a serial killer
Citizen X is a true crime story based upon a book and takes place in the Soviet Union. It focuses upon the investigation into a serial killer. The detective however has to fight against the state as well as look for evidence, which becomes the focus of the film.<br /><br />Lieutenant Viktor Burakov (Stephen Rae) is a lowly policeman put in charge of the case. The story turns out to be more a comment upon the Soviet Union rather than a crime story. Thus Burakov spends as much time arguing with the local Communist Party members as doing his investigation. The actual murder is really messed up as well and gets its own time but really the theme is about how the Soviet system was more interested in maintaining the status quo than a serial killer.<br />C

Dragged things out too much
Drinking Buddies is about how relationships can get complicated. Jack Johnson and Anna Kendrick are one couple and Ron Livingston and Olivia Wilde are another. Johnson and Wilde want to be together and Kendrick and Livingston want to see each other as well. This was a good premise but the problem was they dragged everything out.

Johnny Depp told he's going to die so goes on a bender
Johnny Depp is a college professor who’s told that he has cancer and only a few months to live. The story is about what he decides to do with his life after receiving this devastating news. Rather than being a melancholy film The Professor starts off as a dark comedy as Depp decides to let it all hang out and go on a bender.

By far the funniest Star Trek film
Starting with Wrath of Khan the Stark Trek movies became one long story with each release starting where the last one left off. Here, Captain Kirk and crew are returning to Earth after battling some Klingons for the Genesis device when they find that the Earth is being attacked by a strange probe that can only be solved by going back in time to 1980s San Francisco. That of course leads to some comedic moments such as when Kirk and Spock run into an obnoxious Punk Rock kid on a bus or when Chekov and Uhura ask everyone where the “nuclear wessles” are. There are actually more of those than usual and they present some of the best parts of Voyage Home. The plot itself is an interesting take on nature, man and the environment, and a bit ahead of its time.

Liked the tension and drama film created until end got very predictable and Hollywood
I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. It’s about Russell Crowe being a hostage negotiator trying to free David Morse who was taken prisoner by Latin American rebels. I thought it would be rather routine but I liked the tension and drama that it created. Much of the movie is Crowe with Morse’s wife played by Meg Ryan. She is tortured by the situation and the extended negotiations and threats that are part of it. Morse goes through his own ordeal with the guerrillas. Yeah the end kind of ruined things by getting very predictable and Hollywood but I still liked most of the story.

Gutwrenching stories of Apartheid's crimes and the attempt to heal afterward
There are three parts to In My Country. First is Juliette Binoche an Afrikaner who believes in the new post-Apartheid South Africa and the concept of reconciliation. Second, is Samuel L. Jackson an American journalist who questions whether either of those is possible. Third, they are brought together to report on the Truth and Reconciliation meetings which are happening across the country. There victims tell their tales and the perpetrators have to admit to their crimes in order to receive amnesty. The stories are told by South Africans and are based upon real testimonies. They are heartbreaking and it’s hard not to shed a tear when you hear them. Obviously the point of the Binoche and Jackson characters is to argue over whether reconciliation is possible or whether people should be blamed and punished. There’s one part that strays from that which I thought was unnecessary but it rights itself and the ending is powerful.

One of Tyler Perry's better movies
Meet The Browns was another Tyler Perry family drama-comedy. Like most of Perry’s later films this one is a mix of jokes, family, and love. It featured Angela Bassett as a struggling single mom. She meets two Perry regulars David Mann as Mr. Brown and Tamela Mann as his daughter. There’s the hater Jenifer Lewis plus a man in the form of Rick Fox. Despite everything being predictable I still enjoy these movies. There’s one scene where Frankie Faison explains that all of Bassett’s father’s women were whores because he was a pimp. David Mann is always worth a laugh. The drama also isn’t as cheesy as some other Perry productions which was welcomed.

From side show to world famous magician
I used to watch this movie as a kid on TV. I didn’t remember that the whole beginning is a love story between real life husband and wife Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh. After that’s out of the way however the movie focuses upon Houdini’s rise to fame. I like how they included side shows as his beginning. Those were a real part of Americana. It also included some of his most famous bits like being held off the side of a building in a straight jacket. His shows are a lot like those included in Christopher Nolan’s the Prestige which is much more well known. Overall, it’s a very well told story and the magic and the increasing level of difficulty of Houdini’s tricks keeps you interested.

Never got into the story
Hollywood was always looking for ways to exploit the Cold War. That led to The Fourth War where Roy Scheider is a U.S. army colonel conducting his own personal war crossing over the border into Czechoslovakia to take on a Russian officer Jurgen Prochnow.

1 of Denzel and Viola Davis' greatest performances
Denzel Washington plays a man full of anger and frustration in this adaptation of August Wilson’s play Fences. As his wife Viola Davis tells him he woke up on the wrong side of the bed and just wants to rant and rave about everything under the sun. His son Jovan Adepo gets the most criticism. The movie deals with the themes of fatherhood and responsibility.<br /><br />You can immediately tell that the film is based upon a play because it’s all about the dialogue and conversations. Washington and Davis as his better half dominate the story. There’s one argument between the two that might be one of their finest moments on film. The ending is really special as well and might draw a tear.

Draw is black gangsters standing up to white ones otherwise story is rather routine
Hoodlum takes place in Harlem in 1934 where Dutch Schultz (Tim Roth) is trying to take over the numbers game from the Queen (Cicely Tyson). Bumpy Johnson (Laurence Fishburne) is her main lieutenant. The movie was directed by Bill Duke to highlight the black gangsters that stood up to the white mob.<br /><br />Of course seeing black people fighting white gangsters is the main draw of the film. In terms of a mob story however that’s the only difference. Otherwise there’s plotting, gun play, lots of dead bodies and deals and betrayals. You want to see whether the Queen and Bumpy can prevail but how they go about it is rather routine.

3 people have to deal with their demons to overcome their dysfunctional lives
I thought I’d at least heard of all the 1990s-2000s black movies but I guess not because I didn’t know about this one. Love Come Down is about two brothers Larenz Tate and Martin Cummins dealing with their demons. They are haunted by their past which has led to dysfunctional lives. That’s not all. Tate starts seeing Deborah Cox who’s got her own messed up past. It’s like pain on top of pain on top of pain. It’s definitely unlike any other African American film from this period and well worth watching.

It's pretty routine until the end that saves it
The center of the movie is the 1917 Houston Riot that involved the 24th Infantry Regiment made up of African Americans. After a series of run ins with the racist police along with attacks on the black community the unit rose up. The main character is played by Trai Byers who went to the Sorbonne in France and signed up for the army to try to improve his people. The story takes a familiar path. It introduces the main characters, has a love affair, has the racist encounters, etc. That makes most of the movie rather routine. The riot and its aftermath are by far the best parts of the film including a dialogue between Byers and Mykelti Williamson who plays a sergeant and a moving image at the very end.

Sean Penn looks like he could've been in an 80s hair metal band
Sean Penn looks like he could’ve been in an 80s hair metal band in Shanghai Surprise with a five o’clock shadow and eyeliner. The story is about Penn following around Madonna who is a missionary who wants to buy opium to help out patients in the hospital she works in. That brings them into contact with con men, gangsters, foreigners and more. All kinds of people chase after them. There are plots and betrayals. It was actually a lot better than I thought given Penn’s initial look. The movie was also produced by George Harrison’s company and he made the background music.

Good idea unrealized
Two Bits is about Jerry Barone as a 12 year old kid and his grandfather played by Al Pacino during the Great Depression in South Philadelphia. Barone spends time with Pacino who is dying while trying to get a quarter so he can go to the movies. The story is about dreams and family. There are signs of the Depression as well. It starts off interesting but then it doesn’t really go anywhere. It’s like they had an interesting concept but didn’t know where to go with it.

Achievements of black women methematicians
I love this move. No matter how many times I’ve seen it, it never disappoints.<br /><br />It starts off with the daily indignities African Americans faced in Jim Crow America. The three main characters Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer and Janelle Monae are broken down in their car on the side of the road and a policeman approaches not to ask if they need help but to question them to see if they are doing anything wrong. Henson drinks coffee out of a pot in her office and then they put up another pot for “Coloreds”. All the bathrooms and eating rooms are segregated.<br /><br />It also ties in the women’s struggle to be accepted at NASA with the larger Civil Rights Movement that was going on at the time. As Spencer says advancement for any of them is an advancement for all black people in America.<br /><br />The heart of the film is the work that Henson, Spencer and Monae do on the space program. Henson figures out the trajectories for the space launches. Spencer figures out the new IMB computer. Monae goes to a segregated school to become a NASA engineer. It has a Booker T. Washington feel to it as the women attempt to prove themselves to whites. Of course working on the space program during the competition with the Soviet Union opened up more opportunities then in a regular situation. More importantly the personalities of the three women really shine through.<br /><br />There are also some memorable scenes like Spencer leading a group of black women to work on the new IBM computer or Henson staring at a white board and seeing how to calculate things in her mind.<br /><br />Overall it’s a fantastic film that has two unusual subjects for a major mainstream film: black women and math.

Grown ups have to make adult decisions
It’s Complicated is about adult relationships something that doesn’t get enough screen time in Hollywood. Meryl Streep starts an affair with her married ex-husband Alec Baldwin while her architect Steve Martin likes her. They play around with that like having Streep and Martin getting high or Streep and Baldwin fooling around. In the end the movie comes down to grown people having to make adult decisions about their lives. I thoroughly enjoyed it and the three leads were great.

Unfulfilled dreams and how it shapes the life of two people
Riding In Cars With Boys is about unfulfilled dreams. It’s the 1980s and Drew Barrymore is trying to get her memoir published. The movie flashes back and forth between her past and present to explain her story and book. Her early life for example was all about being a writer and boys topped off by getting pregnant as a teenager. As expected that forever changed things for her, but it also goes into how it shaped her son. The story goes from the serious to the comedic and then back again. It really works and there are plenty of laughs but also some messed up moments.

An 80s classic fantasy flick
Sean Connery does a voiceover hinting at what Highlander is about. That’s followed by the theme song by Queen. Then the Fabulous Freebirds wrestling team walks out to a ring for a match. What more could you ask for in the start of a movie? This all adds up to an 80s classic.<br /><br />The story is about ancient warriors in a centuries old tournament to kill each other and become “The One”. That leads to the iconic catchphrase “There can only be one.”<br /><br />Clancy Brown is the perfect villain. In the medieval days he looks like a demon in skeleton armor. In present he looks like a deranged Punk Rocker. There’s a great scene where he kidnaps Roxanne Hart and drives around New York City playing chicken with on coming traffic. He’s mocking her screams the entire time and looks amazing.<br /><br />As already mentioned Sean Connery is also part of the cast who trains the main character Christopher Lambert about the game.<br /><br />If you love the 80s you should watch Highlander.

Good disaster film that deals with the conventional and some twists
Most disaster movies follow the same basic script. Greenland includes some of those elements while attempting to be a little original as well. The story begins with meteors hitting the Earth threatening planet wide extinction. Gerard Butler, Morena Baccarin and their son Roger Dale Floyd attempt to live through the chaos. They run into the looting and every person for themselves attitude which are tropes of this genre. They also find some humanity as well. The major twist is that the family gets separated so each character has their own adventure into chaos as the world is ending. I thought Greenland did a good job including the conventional and the unexpected. I also liked that it kept the human spirit going.

Top quality kidnapping flick
The Taking Of Pelham One Two Three is a top quality 1970s crime thriller where a gang led by Robert Shaw (Mr. Blue) that also includes Martin Balsam (Mr. Green) and Hector Elizondo (Mr. Grey) hijacks a New York City subway number Pelham One Two Three and demands a ransom otherwise he would start shooting the passengers. The New York City Transit Authority police Walter Matthau (Lt. Zachary Garber) and Jerry Stiller (Lt. Rico Patrone) are assigned to rescue the train.<br /><br />Things get right down to business. There’s no time wasted introducing the characters or going over the plot. Mr. Blue and his team immediately get onto a subway and take it over. The movie therefore concentrates upon Mr. Blue making his demands and Lt. Garber trying to meet them. Mr. Blue threatens to shoot one hostage every time his demands are not met. That leads to all kinds of problems such as when the police car carrying the ransom money overturns or when some police get trigger happy. The last part of the movie is the getaway which has a very interesting ending. This all makes Taking of Pelham One Two Three a very good watch.<br />C

There's barely a story and what's given is ridiculous
Stray Cat Rock was a series of Japanese exploitation films released by Nikkatsu studios featuring an all female gang led by Meiko Kaji who was famous for the Lady Snowblood and Female Prisoner 701: Scorpion series. This was the third in the series.<br /><br />The movie was obviously trying to cash in on the youth movement of the 1960s and 70s. There’s knife fight, a man singing a love tune, a female pop group in a club, followed by a bunch of go-go dancers, and then a drug party. There is absolutely no rhyme or reason to how everything gets thrown together.<br /><br />When a story finally does emerge it’s two part. First, a gang called the Eagles decide to drive out all the half-Japanese, half-American men from the city. This is laced with a heavy anti-American message as the leader of the gang Baron relates how an American soldier raped his sister and he wants revenge. On the other hand Kazuma, who is half-Japanese and half-American is looking for his sister Magumi. The two obviously come into conflict. It’s the thinnest of stories and really doesn't stop the chaotic mish mash of scenes.<br />C

Funny skits are few and far between
The whole schtick of the Jackass TV series and movies was to watch the group hurt themselves and laugh at them while doing it. The opening is a perfect example as the group is chased and hit by bulls. The problem is some of the skits work and some don’t. With this movie most of the scenes are not funny and some are just plain dumb. The skits that are funny in this one are few and far between. This was actually true for most of the Jackass films. Only a couple of them were actually entertaining.

Very personal and funny set based upon Orji's upbringing and Nigerian parents
Yvonne Orji is probably best known as being the best friend on HBO’s Insecure. Before that though she was a stand up comic. This is her getting back into her element.<br /><br />The main thing she talks is the traits she got from her home country of Nigeria and her family. For instance, she loves to haggle. The problem is when she tries that in America it doesn’t work because the prices are fixed. Then she talks about how Nigerians are no good at giving directions, and how her mother stressed education so much she told Yvonne she couldn’t be friends with a boy when she was a little kid because the he didn’t get good grades.<br /><br />Scenes of a recent trip to Nigeria made by Orji are also spliced in throughout her act to make a direct connection between what she’s talking about and her real life. There’s even one great scene where they interview her parents. They were so happy with her because she was good in school and was going to take the test to get into medical school, but then she decided to start telling jokes. You can see the joy leaving their faces.<br /><br />Overall this is a great stand-up set. Very personal, and very funny.

Better than your usual sequel
The start of a franchise along with Liam Neeson being stereotyped as an action hero. The first taken was about Neeson being the angry father tracking down the men who kidnapped his daughter. Now he’s the angry ex-husband tracking down the men who kidnapped his ex-wife Famke Janssen. That would be the formula for all of the films.<br /><br />On the plus side they didn’t throw everything into the wind to get to the action. The movie actually starts with Neeson’s relationship with his family. The action sequences are good as well topped off by the ending of the climax. I’m not sure I buy Neeson’s know everything persona in this film such as when he directs his daughter to pinpoint his location after he’s been kidnapped. Still it was a better than usual sequel.

Fantastic story of teen struggling to be recognized as a writer not just a black athlete
Finding Forrester is an amazingly uplifting story about a teen breaking stereotypes and finding himself through writing with a famous author becoming his mentor. It starred Sean Connery as writer William Forrester and Rob Brown as Jamal Wallace a high school basketball star who really wanted to be a writer. It was directed by Gus Van Sant.<br /><br />The story plays upon the opposites attract trope. Forrester wrote one hugely popular book but couldn’t handle the fame and became a recluse similar to J.D. Salinger after he wrote Catcher In The Rye. Jamal lived a dual life. He was a basketball star, did just enough to get by in a public high school, but was hugely intelligent, was widely read, and aspired to become a writer. He didn’t want anyone to know about his dream because he was afraid he wouldn’t be accepted or would be made fun of. When he starts going to a private school to play ball his talents are disregarded and looked down upon because he's black. Forrester lived in Jamal’s neighborhood in the Bronx and the two start an unlikely relationship. Jamal comes over to Forrester’s every day to write and be critiqued and inspired. It is not just the learned white man teaching the rough black kid. In fact, Jamal helps Forrester as well. They weren’t father and son as it might appear initially. They were actually friends, and co-stars in the film.<br /><br />In addition to the inspirational story Rob Brown had an amazing tale as well. He’d never acted before, tried out for the part and got it. He told Entertainment Weekly that his main inspiration for answering the casting call was to get money to help his family out with their bills. Gus Van Sant found a true talent. Brown held down his role and was able to be the equal to Sean Connery on screen.<br /><br />It’s all these factors together that makes Finding Forrester so special.<br />C

Great produciton of Shakespeaer with love intrigue betrayal and comedy
Much Ado About Nothing was like many pieces by William Shakespeare that included love, intrigue, betrayal, and comedy. It was directed by Kenneth Branagh who also did the screenplay.<br /><br />You can guess the plot from the opening scene. Don Pedro (Denzel Washington) returns to his estate after putting down a local rebellion by his half brother Don John (Keanu Reeves). Don John looks extremely perturbed at his situation. When he finds out that Don Pedro’s best friends Claudio (Robert Sean Leonard) wants to marry a woman named Hero (Kate Beckinsale). Don John and his men plot to ruin this courtship. The plan is so simple yet effective and sows the intended dissent. As can be expected that leads to plenty of twists and turns.<br /><br />The unlikely hero and source of comedy is one Dogberry (Michael Keaton) the local constable. He and his men stumble upon Don Pedro’s men and attempt to gain the truth of their actions. Dogberry is a bumbling idiot who steals every scene he’s in. He will make you laugh every time he appears on screen.<br /><br />Overall, this was a very good production of Shakespeare and highlights some of his favorite themes and storytelling techniques.<br />C

Conformity is the prices of success in this very predictable movie
The opening credits and first scene of Devil Wears Prada lays out the dilemma for Andy (Anne Hathaway). She gets a job as the assistant to the editor in chief of Runway magazine Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep). The other women who work there dress to impress. They go to work in taxis or chauffeured cars. Andy on the other hand puts on what she has and takes the subway. She finds that Miranda is feared by the entire staff, acts like a dictator, and now she’s going to have to work with her every day.<br /><br />The movie puts Andy in a very predictable situation. The question is whether the story will do anything new with her character? Unfortunately it doesn’t. Andy gets over worked, feels unappreciated and has a breakdown. What’s her answer? To conform and outdo all the other women at the magazine by getting her hair re-done and wearing designer clothes. She works even harder to meet Priestly’s every whim. Only by becoming like everyone else at the company can she get ahead. It costs her though, and you can guess where that leads.<br /><br />Unless this is a satire of corporate America where women have to sacrifice their social lives and other things in order to succeed especially when competing with men than this is a very predictable story.

Collection of Batman stories each with their own message
Gotham Knight is a collection of stories each with a different message to them. The first for example is about the urban legend of Batman as a group of skater kids each describes their encounter with Batman but portray him in different ways like a shadow or a bat. Another is about Bruce Wayne’s morals and what he was willing to do to fight crime. Each story was also done by various groups so the art and look is different each time. It was definitely an interesting mix.

Great horror spoof by Marlon Wayans
A Haunted House was another spoof made by the Wayans, specifically Marlon Wayans who wrote the story, was the co-producer and starred in it as well. This one used the handheld camera technique to make fun of films like Paranormal Activity and others.<br /><br />The movie is full of low brow humor. Hence the first night he’s got this camera on ghosts don’t show up but his girlfriend played by Essence Atkins passes gas non-stop. There are plenty of special guests who all get laughs such as David Koechner as a racist security camera man, Nick Swardson as a gay psychic who tries to pick up on Wayans, and Cedric the Entertainer who plays a minster called in to do an exorcism. If you like this kind of comedy this movie will make you laugh.

1 of the greatest horror movies ever whose influence is still felt today
The Exorcist is an all time horror classic. It pits good versus evil played out within the body of the young Linda Blair.<br /><br />The movie was really well made. At the start for instance Max von Sydow who plays a priest finds a statue of evil in the Middle East. The two face off against each other as foreshadowing of what will come. Then when Blair first gets possessed it’s quite an entrance during a dinner party her mom is hosting. It just builds from there and gets pretty incredible.<br /><br />The music with the keyboard is also instantly recognizable. Both the soundtrack and the horror were felt far and wide throughout the genre even to this day the movie’s influence can still be seen.

It's not just about race but the diversity of black life that's often ignored
Dear White People is about a group of African American students at a fictitious Winchester University. It deals with not only race but also the variety of black experiences.<br /><br />The story follows a number of students at the school who each symbolize something different. There’s Samantha (Tessa Thompson) who is a DJ on the school’s radio station that constantly critiques society and the university for its racism. There’s Lionel (Tyler James Williams) who is a gay-nerd outcast. Coco (Teyonah Parris) is highly ambitious and doesn’t want to be seen solely as black but then uses her identity to gain social standing. Troy (Brandon Bell) is a school leader and seems like he has everything. The characters aren’t one dimensional however. Samantha for instance sees a white guy and feels like she gets pigeon hold as the militant black girl. Troy secretly resents his father for constantly pressuring him to be more successful and ignore his own life goals. It’s meant to highlight the diversity of black life which is typically ignored in the media and Hollywood. There is not just one black world out there in America. For instance the rare film that deals with blacks at college usually has a black male who’s struggling to stay in school because he grew up in the inner city and that threatens to drag him down. The characters are meant to shatter that stereotype.<br /><br />The other major issue is race at the university. The movie begins with news stories of a riot and then explains how it started with a black face party at school which is then crashed by the black, Asian and Latino student unions. The invite tells people to mock blacks. Samantha says it should have been rejected outright and instead it turned into a giant party. Director Justin Simien shows this isn’t just fiction in the closing credits where there are pictures from different universities that had similar black face parties and one mocking Mexicans.<br /><br />Overall Dear White People works both as satire and comedy. The party for example highlights how whites love to exploit black culture while looking down on it at the same time.<br />C

All the grifters that try to leach off a high school basketball star
He Got Game is a Spike Lee joint starring Denzel Washington and Ray Allen. It focuses upon the pressures that star high school athletes face. There’s the grifters who want to latch onto them and make money. There are the relatives that think they’re making it off of the athlete’s success. There’s the coaches that want to recruit them, etc. The movie is about Denzel as Allen’s father who is a convict. He’s let out of prison to try to convince his son to sign with the governor’s college alma mater. The fact that Allen blames his dad for the death of his mother doesn’t help things. This is a great story line about the cost of fame before kids are even really famous.<br /><br />The best part of the film is the interaction between Denzel and Allen. He was a dictator when his son was growing up keeping him out for all hours on the court drilling him over and over, pushing him to his limits to be a better ball player. Now Allen was the #1 high school basketball player in America. Denzel just shows up out of the blue talking to Allen. As can be expected, Allen is not only standoffish but resentful. It’s a real struggle for them to re-connect.<br /><br />Second, the basketball was really good. Allen’s team included three other star college players and just one actor. Those were Travis Best who was then with Georgia Tech, Walter McCarty who won a national championship with Kentucky, and John Wallace from Syracuse who went to an NCAA finals. All three would make the NBA. Denzel also played college basketball and could hold his own. There is a great game between father and son to end the movie.<br /><br />All the influences are then introduced. Allen has a girlfriend La La who wants to introduce him to her friend who is an agent even though that’s illegal. There’s Allen’s uncle who believes that his nephew will get some money from the college he goes to and wants a cut of it. Even his high school coach comes at him with money.<br /><br />The one problem with the film is when Allen goes on a college tour. They have white girls tempting him, and then he goes to a party and has sex with two women. Lee cast two porn stars for that part. Maybe he was looking for heightened reality, but I thought it was too much.<br /><br />Overall, this is a really good film on a topic rarely talked about publicly.<br />C

Media consumes everything
The title refers to three outcast artists Maya Hawke, Andrew Garfield and Nat Wolff becoming overnight sensations and joining the mainstream of social media. The story takes a predictable yet interesting trajectory. They criticize people’s addiction to their phones for instance. Then their image become more important than the art and message. Garfield plays a wild man with a purpose. Hawke is the conflicted artist and Wolff has hang-ups. You can see as Garfield ends up consuming all of them and media consumes him.

Michael Caine steals the show as the curmudgeon
Best Sellers is about dealing with the past. Michael Caine plays a curmudgeony old author dealing with his dead wife while Aubrey Plaza is his publisher who is struggling to keep her father’s company going. It’s really about the relationship between the two. Caine is completely irreverent. He makes appearances and says nothing but “BS! BS! BS!” and constantly asks for is alcohol. It’s like he should’ve been the twenty something. He’s a sight to see and the reason to watch Best Sellers.

Was disappointed
Bruce Campbell of Evil Dead fame starred and produced this movie so I was expecting something good. I was disappointed. The idea is that a monster attacks a large toy store on Black Friday. The workers are forced to defend themselves. The main problem was the writing didn’t fulfil the potential. There were some good parts at the start. but eventually the movie just fell into your usual monster movie. The end was especially disappointing because the film didn’t have much of a budget so little happens when there should be a huge confrontation with the giant being.

TV series plays on all the familiar themes of the Zatoichi movies
Zatoichi The Blind Swordsman was such a hit in Japan with 26 movies from 1962-72 and one more in 1989 that it was eventually turned into a TV series. That aired from 1974 to 1979. Shintaro Katsu who played Zatoichi produced the show through his Katsu Productions. This collection has six discs and the last thirteen episodes of season 1.<br /><br />The TV episodes were a mix of original stories and ones borrowed from the movies. Even the originals maintained the elements popular in the films. For example, Zatoichi loved to gamble, he tried to help out the common people, and especially women and in one case a baby who were in need, he fights ronin (masterless samurai), cuts down a slew of Yakuza (gangster) henchmen, deals with corrupt officials, and most importantly tried to right wrongs. it also highlighted how much the common people suffered in ancient Japan. There are constant stories of people going into debt to the Yakuza and having to give away their wives and sisters as compensation who were then used in brothels. The irony of the series was that Zatoichi was a Yakuza himself going from boss to boss, playing dice, etc., yet he had a good heart.<br /><br />In the first episode for example, Zatoichi accidently gets a mother killed and takes up her newborn baby to return him to his father. He then rescues a pick pocket woman from an angry samurai she stole from who then helps Zatoichi with the baby. All the while a group of Yakuza are trying to kill the blindman. The real problem though comes when the father rejects the baby. All very familiar territory from the movies.<br />C

Portrait of a socipathic killer but it's a bit long at over 2 hrs
Vengeance Is Mine was based upon a book which was a true crime story of a 1960s serial killer in Japan.<br /><br />The movie begins with the killer Enokizu (Ken Ogata) heading to prison after killing five people. The story uses a series of flashbacks to explain Enokizu’s story about not only his murders, his time on the run from the authorities, and his early life as well. He was humiliated, a delinquent, and impudent while growing up, had a dysfunctional family, and was a consummate gambler and thief. The movies paints Enokizu as a sociopath. He robs, kills and manipulates people without a care in the world. It really is a disturbing portrayal. The problem with the film is that it is just too long at just over two hours.

Very stylish Japanese gangster-exploitation flick with Sonny Chiba
Yakuza Wolf starring Sonny Chiba is about revenge. Chiba hunts down the people who were responsible for the death of his father who was a Yakuza boss.<br /><br />The movie is very stylish. Chiba drives an American muscle car and dresses all in black. There’s a fight scene at the start where the camera never gives you a clear shot of what’s happening. It starts off at waist level and then shakes all over the place giving you a sense of total chaos.<br /><br />The first third was great. Chiba cut his way through gangsters like a hot knife through butter. Then they threw in a story about his sister which I thought was unnecessary. It got back on track afterwards.<br /><br />Also being an exploitation film there’s plenty of sex and even rape.

How to become king of New York? Offer a deal and kill em if they refuse
Christopher Walken is Frank White a crime boss in New York City who gets out of prison and wants bigger and better things. The movie is about whether he can eliminate all his competition and achieve his dreams. That includes going up against Columbian drug cartels, the mafia, Chinese gangs, and the cops, plus dealing with betrayal.<br /><br />There are a lot of young actors in this film that would make a name for themselves. That includes Laurence Fishburne, Giancarlo Esposito, Wesley Snipes, David Caruso, Roger Gueneveur, and a short appearance by Harold Perriheau.<br /><br />The movie proves to be a very good gangster film. It gets right down to business and doesn't spend time explaining White’s back story or establishing each character. As soon as he’s released from prison the action starts. There is a lot of gunplay as well. It was also right at the cusp of a new wave of crime dramas like New Jack City and Sugar Hill that would follow it.<br />C

Completely predictable and unbelievable
The start of this movie makes no sense. It has U.S. soldiers firing real munitions at three prototype stealth fighters. Why would the military threaten to destroy or damage multi-billion dollar test planes? This set a trend throughout the film of unbelievable events constantly happening.<br /><br />Then about 15 minutes in you can predict the entire story. The person who wrote it was apparently watching 2001: A Space Odyssey even using a computer voice similar to Hal.<br /><br />I say hard pass.

Great romantic comedy but really about the problems with relationships
About Last Night was the second of three romantic comedies by producer Will Packer. He used many of the same actors in all three. This one featured two couples made up of Bernie (Kevin Hart) and Joan (Regina Hall) and Danny (Michael Ealy) and Debbie (Joe Bryant). Bernie and Joan can’t stand each other but can’t stay away from each other. Danny and Debbie on the other hand immediately fall in love and move in with each other, but are missing an element that leads to them breaking up. This film wasn’t as funny as Packer’s other production Think Like A Man, There were still plenty of jokes by Bernie and Joan, but it really focuses upon Danny and Debbie more. What can bring two people together that seem like they’re made for each other and then break them apart? Ealy and Bryant really hold their own in this relationship and make the whole film.<br />C

Director's cut made for a more well rounded story
I saw this movie when it came out in a theater and loved it. It was director Ridley’s Scott’s vision of a Middle East where people of different faiths could live together if it weren’t for extremists on both sides. For example in one scene David Thewlis who plays a warrior monk says that he’s seen religion used by fanatics to murder. The main fanatics in the film are the Templer Knights who are only interested in starting war with the Muslims. The monk goes on to say that religion should be about doing good deeds for others and that was what Scott was trying to promote with the main character played by Orlando Bloom who is about sacrifice.<br /><br />This is the director’s cut which is about an hour longer. Some of the extra footage is right at the start which gives more background to Orlando Bloom’s character in Europe and why he wanted to go on the Crusades. There’s also an entire story line about the queen of Jerusalem that was cut from the final version. Another addition is that there is a lot of blood and guts to the battle scenes. Sometimes the director’s cut can be a lot of filler that deserved not to be included. This however makes for a much richer story.<br /><br />The movie itself is a great mix of morals (What does it mean to be religious?), interesting characters like Bloom who struggles over what he stands for, his father played by Liam Neeson who wanted redemption in his old age, Eva Green who was the queen of Jerusalem caught in the power struggles of the crusaders, Edward Norton as the king who was a leper struggling to keep the peace, Marton Csokas who was power hungry, Ghassan Massoud who was Saladin a noble Arab conqueror and Alexander Siddig his protégé, and war as it ends with a gigantic battle for Jerusalem that used 100s of real extras instead of CGI as most films do these days. That made it much more realistic and dramatic. It really is an epic film.

Evil Dead returns even better than before
In 1981 Sami Rami and Bruce Campbell scrapped together some money to make their first film the Evil Dead. Six years later they returned with an even better release Evil Dead II.<br /><br />Campbell was back as Ash Williams who takes his girlfriend Linda (Denise Bixler) to another secluded cabin just like in the first film. There they find that someone had left behind a tape recording documenting a researchers work into the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis, the book of the dead, just like in the first film. The recording releases an evil spirit which kidnaps Linda. The story than centers upon Ash fighting evil.<br /><br />With more money Rami and Campbell were able to do a lot more. At the start there was the moving camera sweeping in as the evil spirit which was used in the first film. Added to that was claymation such as Linda’s evil spirit dancing around. Linda’s animated head which terrorizes Ash. They also re-created some of the scenes from the first film, such as a woman being attacked by branches. Stop motion was used for Ash’s possessed, severed hand.<br /><br />The first Evil Dead was a low budget romp. Evil Dead 2 was way better with the effects and overall story.<br /><br />When you’re done with the film go to the commentary and watch it again with Rami, Campbell and writer Scott Spiegel. It’s a blast.<br />C

Pretty original storyline
This movie is unlike the usual stories that Hong Kong produced during this time. It includes rejection by a father. Fighting amongst an old couple. Some Kung Fu comedy. Plus some more traditional plot lines about foreigners attempting to take over China and hosting a big martial arts tournament. I give it a thumbs up just for its originality.

So so bad
I’d never seen any of the Strangers’ movies so wanted to see whether it was a decent slasher series. IT WAS NOT. Talk about routine and moronic writing. Girl gets in a car being chased and doesn’t lock the door. Tries to turn on the car but it doesn’t start. Has a shot gun but then doesn’t bring it with her. Did somebody use Idiot’s Guide To Horror Films to write this?

Premise is ridiculous but the one liners help sustain the film
Hobbs & Shaw highlights how far the Fast and Furious series has gone from its origins. Gone were the days of men and women racing around in cars and being outlaws. Now they were all superheroes. Thus the bad guy here, Idris Elba as Brixton is a genetically enhanced supersoldier. To offset that leap in faith they made the movie an action-comedy with Dwayne Johnson as Hobbs and Jason Statham as Shaw delivering plenty of one liners while repeatedly punching and shooting people. The other redeeming quality was Vanessa Kirby as Hattie Shaw. It’s always good to see a female action hero. Together that actually made this a success despite the ridiculous premise. On the other hand, the writing got worse as it progress. Despite that Hobbs & Shaw was still a fun action movie despite itself.<br />C

Fallout from the last film along with possible nuclear fallout if Hunt fails
Fallout has two meaning in this film. First, Solomon Lane (Sean Harris) who ran the Syndicate has been captured but his operatives are still working in a new group called the Apostles. They are after three plutonium cores and it’s up to Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and his team to get them before the Apostles. That points to the other meaning of the title because if those things go off there will be nuclear fallout. It turns out the Apostles have agents everywhere and there are spies within spies, double crosses, plots and other dirty tricks throughout the story.<br /><br />By this time the Mission Impossible franchise created a set of expectations about what would happen and that also meant it was a bit routine. The plastic masks for examples had become a trademark. Therefore they had to figure out how to use those gimmicks in new ways. They did an ingenious play with the masks right at the start featuring a guest appearance by a famous newscaster. They made another addition with the CIA Director Sloan (Angela Bassett) not trusting the Mission Impossible Force so they she sends one of her agents Walker (Henry Cavill) to watch over Hunt. They use that to cause all kinds of tensions while he’s on his mission. Another time they actually showed Hunt getting tired during a fight.<br /><br />At the same time they overdid it a bit in some parts. For instance, Hunt and Walker parachute into Paris during a thunderstorm for no apparent reason. Would getting into France really require such an extreme entrance other than the fact that this was a Mission Impossible movie?<br /><br />Overall this was another good Mission Impossible movie with plenty of action and hair raising stunts. Despite the limits of the franchise by this time it was still entertaining.<br />C

Too much time on the kids and not enough on the monsters
Attack of the Monsters was the fifth Gamera movie. In Japan it was titled Gamera vs Guiron. Just like its Godzilla contemporaries the movie had become a full on children’s franchise. Two pre-teen kids are the main characters just like the previous film. They find a spaceship and take it to another planet where they find a monster and aliens. Of course, those are the bad guys and Gamera is going to be the hero. Like too many in the franchise this one focuses upon the human characters far more than Gamera. It’s not until the end where there’s the big battle that the big turtle really shows up. This was a fault of too many Gamera movies, which means this one is for the true fans only.
