C'era una volta il West (1968)
One of the greatest western spaghettis of all
When I first saw this movie, not even at the start, only the McBain sequence, I thought that it would be really violent so I turned off the TV. I then watched it on its entire length a while ago and let me tell you that finally found the story very good. A bit long but I didn't care.
The story of a man, called Harmonica because he always wears that instrument around the neck, who arrives in the town of Flagstone looking for a man named Frank. During this time, not far from there, a family is savagely assassinated as they were preparing for the arrival of Jill, the future wife of the patriarch. When she arrives at the station, nobody comes to take her to the McBain house. While en route, she meets Cheyenne, an outlaw.
Frank, who works for Morton, a crippled railroad tycoon, tries to eliminate everything that is on the path of the future train. But Harmonica will have to confront him in a duel to refresh Frank's memory.
Great performance for great actors like Bronson, Cardinale and especially Fonda, who plays for the first time of his long and successful career as the villain Frank.
Il mio nome è Nessuno (1973)
If you like to laugh a lot, this is the movie to watch!
If you think that the movie looks at first sight insignificant just by the title,you're all wrong. I was the first one to ask myself "what is this?". Well, I wasn't disappointed at all after watching it.
The story is about a young man, called Nobody, who tries to make a name by doing something that everybody will hear in the future. While fishing with a particular manner, he sees Jack Beauregard who is watching him with amazement. To Nobody, Beauregard is his greatest hero.
Looking for a horse with an empty saddle as a luggage, Nobody is involved in a series of events that without warning protects his idol from different attacks. What Beauregard wants is to leave the country and get profit of a well-deserved retirement.
But Nobody thinks of something so the old timer will "make history in the books". The challenge, eliminate the Wild Bunch all by himself.
Mister Roberts (1955)
Great comedy and had fun most of the time!
This movie is really a good one, with great actors that we know already. The story of a crew of navy men during the WW 2 on the Pacific Ocean that try to have fun but the captain of the ship doesn't want to hear a thing. Lt. Roberts, played by Fonda, tries to convince his superior to give them the chance to have a permission for 24 hours. Pulver, played by Lemmon, is a real troublemaker and a man who desperately wants to meet the girls on shore. Roberts tries as well to join the front because he's tired of boredom. As the movie goes through the end, a tragic event makes the crew and especially Pulver astonished by reading the letter of a friend of his. Frustated, Pulver finishes the job where Roberts started....
Non-Stop (2014)
Really great action movie
I've just seen this movie after winning tickets for the "avant-premiere" here in Montreal, and I can tell you that it's worth it!!! Action from the beginning to the end, great special effects and outstanding cast!! Being a fan of Neeson since Schindler's list, I think it's one of his best!! The story is awesome as well, telling us about the past of the main character and his self-control of the situation. Neeson, even at almost 62, is in great shape and the producers had really the good idea to cast him. If you see this movie in a plane, you better fasten your seat belt! It's not only the turbulence that will shake you! I can assure you!!
