Skyfall (2012)
Only 1 Bullet in That Gun..??
Yeah of course great movie but my problem with it starts from the beginning when Eve shoots Bond not the bad guy off the top of the train.. So are we saying the rifle she used only has one shot in it.? Really..?? Seems like a poor choice of weapons if that's true.. I'm sure there are other multiple weapons that have more than a one shot capability.. As the bad guy was riding on top of the train for a substantial amount of time after Bond took the hit. Eve certainly had plenty of time to get off multiple rounds as bad guy safely rode off to the safety of the train tunnel.. Of course common sense is one thing that is avoided in many movies, even the best.
The Killer (2023)
Super Secret Assassin Not So Super or Secret
This started out as a somewhat interesting personality study into what I thought would be a super out of sight guy who did jobs for whoever called. But as soon as he messes up his first hit in the flick everyone and anyone is all over his house and girlfriend beating her up all up all day and night up and down all over. I mean this guy might as well strung a set of Christmas lights on the roof of his house saying.. "I'm the Assassin Guy stop on In".. LOL.. And he's a terrible shot to begin with. How in the world did he miss that guy and hit poor sweet lady of the night all dressed up in that nice black leather outfit..!
Extraction 2 (2023)
OK.. Sorry Extraction 1 better though for me..
Locations in Extraction 1 much more interesting.. Prison scenes pretty dreary in this one and what happened to all the people in that gigantic office building in Austria.? Totally empty.. Sunday morning maybe..? LOL.. And don't see any reason about what happened to Yaz.. Should be keeping the team together.. And the whole Sandro thing was pretty annoying.. Would much prefer to have people who appreciate what you're doing for them.. Made it a little hard to concentrate on what was going on as you kept wondering when he was going mess everything up as you knew he would.. Hope Extraction 3 is in Paris or the French Riviera or some place real fancy.. Ha..
The Bling Ring (2013)
100 PERCENT FUN..!!
I loved this movie...!! Sophia got it just right and Emma Watson was fantastic as was everyone really. One of the little mysteries is what happened to Claire Julien as Chloe. Her father is a well known Hollywood cinematographer so maybe she just didn't need the clam life too. She was a totally great and gorgeous bad girl. Well I guess you could say semi-bad girl as none of them really hurt anyone or tried to. They just did some robbing..!!
InstaFame (2020)
Totally THE BEST..!!
The Best High School Psycho Movie out there. Got it all..!! Best Talented young actors and actresses I've seen in awhile.
Carlito's Way (1993)
Amazingly great movie.. Obvious contradictions are hilarious though..
This is my first review and I must say I really admire those who come to this site to write thorough and interesting reviews. While I would really like to write in that tradition, to be completely honest I just don't think have the energy right now to do that.
Thought I would though just mention a couple things I notice in the film which I find interesting. I've watched this movie so many times I've lost track of the number. Something I'm sure many here have done with their favorites.
As mentioned in my title, there are some really funny contradictions in the story which can be found in the story line of many movies.
Of course the most obvious is the reality of Johnny Briganti's pledge as stated in the summary "A Puerto Rican former convict, just released from prison, pledges to stay away from drugs and violence despite the pressure around him and lead on to a better life outside of N.Y.C."
LOL..!!
If you "pledge to stay away from drugs and violence", then I would recommend jumping out of that FlameMobil as soon as possible when Johnny "$30,000" Ortiz informs you he is making a delivery for the Senor.. lol..
New Years weight loss pledges usually last longer than that one..
And of course after the shootout at the pool hall Carlito turns the corner in the Bario and states as he throws his gun into the dumpster.. something to the effect.. "I'm not looking for this trouble.. it just finds me.."..lol.. Right..!!
That's it for now... Don't know if I can update... We see.. Thanks
