Last Knights (2015)
8/10
Epically Badass!
20 October 2023
Arthurian legend combined with feudal Japanese samurai mythos. This film is hard, it has Depth and gut. I don't know what movie some of the reviewer's who gave it a ridiculously low grade are watching? I grew up watching medieval sword play, swashbuckling, martial arts action, to a plethora of samurai sword-clanking films. This definitely does not even fall in the top 100 lowest ranked ones.. there are some really bad films out there, which makes me wonder how many movies has some reviewers watched? Last Knights feels like a medieval film, but it takes place in a fictional world, you can call it an else-world, no different than the imaginary world created in a Japanese animation movie... as a matter of fact, if this was completely animated, I feel it would have less complaints about the amalgamation of eastern and western lore combined in the wonderful set designs, an excellent wardrobe. This movie has plenty of action when the time comes. There is a plot slowly brewing beneath the surface, but you must have patience and look carefully as everything starts to reveal into an epic bad ass finale that will make you grow a rock-hard beard from the sheer awesomeness.

9/10
One of the greatest trilogy endings.
17 October 2023
Warning: Spoilers
This is how it's done. How to make a part three and make it the greatest part of the trilogy.. the story has depth, soul, and it hits the heart with emotion as we experience the origins of rocket raccoon. A plethora of Easter eggs and amazing set designs all package in one of Marval's best franchises. James Gunn gives us such a well balance of action story and character development. We get callouts from guardian characters who have appeared throughout the history of the comics. Even hinting on the characters going out on their own arcs, just as we have red throughout the ages. Groot looking like he came out of the pages of Tales to Astonish, alongside Adam Warlock and a young Phyla-Vell and Cosmo, the dog (who first appeared in Nova) all have served as members of the Guardians of the Galaxy, gun has left no detail out, he truly transcends the source material. This film is easily up there with the best marvel films to date.

Megaforce (1982)
3/10
Megafarce
4 December 2022
A movie that may look good if you cut it down to 30 minutes and let it play in the background with some cool electro music. Now sitting through this movie is a different type of pain, it is extremely underwhelming, the only action are the actual explosions, motorcycles, and vehicles on the move. The dialogue is absolutely corny and I feel they could've done better with the mega force team's costumes instead of some solid gold Saturday night fever spandex. It's been said this movie was meant to market kids. Even a kid will find this movie boring as it's all hype and no execution.. watch this film, extremely high, and you might enjoy it and get a couple of laughs.

Savage Dawn (1985)
6/10
Enough Mindless Action to keep you watching
25 March 2022
A drifter, loner and ex military badass "Stryker" visits an old friend in an odd town and encounters a Biker Gang who are bent out of shape in destroying the town. Plenty of trashiness, senseless villains who just want to cause havoc with that 80's over-the-top flare. Don't watch with any expectations except to kill some late night movie time, but It has plenty of cheese to keep you watching even if you don't try. Despite the mediocre script, and moments you will laugh at some dialog, William Forsythe still shows his acting chops here early in his career playing the bike gang leader and of course Lance Henriksen holds his ground.

Lady Street Fighter (1980 Video)
3/10
WTF Did I just watch?
23 March 2022
The main character "Linda" is out for revenge after her sister is Murdered. If what followed was pure non stop action (even on a low budget) with decent fight choreography.. then we might have a pretty good trash cinema movie, but when the movie slows down to dialogue it's extremely noticeable how bad most of the actors are, including the star, who has a heavy accent and talks like she is coldly reading instructions off a paper. The insanity will keep you watching just to see how ludicrous the film is. The fight scenes are hilarious, no one knows how to throw a punch or block it especially Linda. I recommend you play this movie on mute while you listen to music and it will Be more captivating.

Old Henry (2021)
9/10
A solid Western filled with mystery and tension
23 October 2021
It's been quite some time since I've seen a western of this caliber. Beautifully shot, gritty dialogue and a mysterious protagonist who's identity excitedly unravels in a final raw classic tense shootout with a story twist. Blake embodies the character of Henry and It was great seeing Stephen Dorf as Ketchum. Potsy Ponciroli definitely pays homage to some of the greats in this western.

Boss Level (2020)
8/10
This is what action movies are about!
18 August 2021
This is officially my first review on IMDb. This movie was action pack, fun, entertaining, witty with a blend of sci-fi and eventually a deeper message. Frank Grillo at his best holding his own With an all-star cast. I enjoyed Michelle Yeoh's Cameo especially. This will become a cult classic alongside of other time travel/time loop films like Groundhog Day or Edge of tomorrow. This film delivers the way an action film of its kind should deliver, reminds me of the good all days watching fun action movies of the 80s and 90's, You can say it's almost a Parody of one of the classic video games, bare bones, No-holds-bar action.
