The Gambler (2014)
A great movie
A man finds his talent and his talent tears his life apart. The only way out is to use this same talent to free himself.
Running Scared (2006)
Adrenaline packed action with story !!!!!
This movie took me by surprise. I hated the fast and furious movies and thought Paul Walker wasn't a good actor. This movie proved me wrong. This by far is his best film (rip). This movie is in my top 10 crime movies. Walkers character comes home one night and his kid and the neighbors kid are playing street hockey in the basement(they weren't supposed to be playing down there) and they witness Walker hiding something.
This triggers an epic and I mean epic unraveling of a complex story that would make Tarentino and Guy Rich , and Scorsese,s the Departed jealous. Just the police integration scene with the vanilla Coke was a style I wish more directors would use. You feel fear for the characters all of them you wind up liking villains and doubting the good guys your morals get turned upside down and spun around . You are running scared with the characters in this film .
The Gentlemen (2019)
Unforgettable
Guy Richie comes back to the British crime thriller theme in this film and he does so in a modern tone. Like Snatch the characters collide in an epic, and to many, comic climax that's pleasing. In this case the Characters are as unique as the characters in Snatch. The acting is top Notch, especially Collin Farrow, Hugh Grant and Michelle Dockery. Matthew Mcconaughey is Matthew Mcconaughey like in the Lincoln commercials. This movie ,like Snatch, is memorable and very re-watchable. Its not as sharp and politically incorrect like Snatch was, but I believe that this is done on purpose to reflect the times and is actually a theme in the movie between Millennial Drug dealers and Gen-X Drug dealers and to me its quite comical. Apparently the politically correct Critic scores do not like it. Its a Great movie its a classic you will enjoy it.
Rambo: Last Blood (2019)
Rambo has come full circle !!!
John Rambo, in all of the 4 previous films, has been trying to find peace from the horrors of the Vietnam War and his highly classified work as Special Forces Green Beret only to be drawn back in to fighting over and over. In this latest installment John finds himself home finally with a makeshift family for the last 9 years. When his "daughter" goes off to find her biological father in Mexico something goes horribly wrong. John has to unleash all of the evil inside that hes been trying keep suppressed over his history of conflict to save his daughter. John fought an Entire police force and national guard by himself, Vietnamese soldiers , an entire Russian battle group with a Spetznaz detachment, and a rogue battalion of Malaysian soldiers. This time hes fighting Mexican drug runners and slave runners. The climax of the film is a rapid fire super violent battle of John wiping off the face of the earth. Spoiler: he uses techniques in the past films in a total master piece of war. The critics of this film that don't like it either haven't seen any of the previous films or they have a political agenda because this is the character of John Rambo a good guy killing bad guys. Its great!!.
Stink! (2015)
Convoluted and hard to stay on track.
The movie starts out showing the directors abosultly beautiful wife and you find she died of breast cancer. You feel sadness for this man and then he opens a pair of Justice pajamas and they smell. The smell the film claims is secret and protected by the government and companies and says its proprietary. The director goes through the impotent search of what's in the pajamas by calling the company
Several times including the Chinese manufacturers but he never once googled what's used I'm making clothes?
He then cant find the answer so he sends it off to a lab and finds out not shockingly (to me )that china is using banned chemicals. So he confronts the CEO of Justice brand at an investor meeting and clearly the CEO doesn't know what's in making the clothes and is just following standard procedure.
Now the documentary takes a wild turn and now is trying to blend the smell of the pajamas to Fragrance Labels? The showed channel # 5 and Jwow and AXE body spray. They again kept on saying that its proprietary and is secret. He interviews perfume makers and clearly cut the tape when they told him what's in it. Perfume has been made since the beginning of civilization it's made out of the same ingredients the reason they do not tell you what's in perfume or cologne is becuase it's from animal glands. Beaver, muskrat, and and skunk. Its mixed with vanilla bean extract and floral extracts. It's not toxic and it's not a chemical.
The whole documentary started correctly with the chemical in clothes this is why its recommended to wash clothes before you wear them. Then it turns into anything that has Fragrance label is a cancer causing chemical it's simply not True and it takes away from the real danger the active ingredients that clearly say Danger on it and the formaldehyde that's in new clothes. Leather has an insane about of chemicals in it and that wasn't mentioned. It's not a good documentary.
Quigley Down Under (1990)
Unique Western
This movie is a unique western. It takes place in the late 1860,s when Sharps rifles were making experimental brass cass rounds and breech loading rifles. The star of the film is Quigley an American marksman who has the new Sharps 45-110 buffalo rifle and he is a crack shot.
A wealthy Australian land owner hires him to come over to Australia to clear his miles and miles of land of Dingos dogs, or so Quigly thinks !!! This is by far one of the best western movies. Top 10.
Bad Times at the El Royale (2018)
Bait a switch.
This is the second time I have been baited and switched by the creators of the film Cabin in the Woods. The first time I thought cabin in the woods was a remake of Evil Dead but I was wrong it ,was better, I enjoyed that bait and switch. Bad Times at the El Royal previews and trailers state from the creators of Cabin in the Woods. This leads horror fans ,who like Monster and serial Killers and the fact that a Charles Manson character, a singer, and tunnels like Cabin in the woods you would lead you to naturaly assume it's a bait hotel for serial killers. The entire movie hints this but it's not. There is no plot to this movie. I give it a 7 because it's high quality directing and cinematic but theres no plot what so ever.
