Ironside: Downhill All the Way (1973)
Where's Kim Darby & William Smith?
The first episode is good however the two star rating is so far in the first or rather part 1. Kim Darby & William Smith have not made any appearance's. I'm on 10 mins of episode 2 still. They haven't shown up. What gives!? I hope to gosh they aren't cameos. I would be very disappointed. I do like seeing Will Devane & Val Bisoglio of Rolling Thunder & Mash Fame. Of course David Wayne of TV's House Calls is always a joy. Holy Makers. Kim Darby & Smith show up a half hour into the 2nd episode & have nothing to do with the thriller plot. What a waste. At least Antonio Fargas lightens things up as a foreigner.
Vanquish (2021)
Good past the time action thriller VANQUISH is
It's a rainy Saturday afternoon. Saw this on Freevee. Morgan Freeman as usual is in fine form here finally headlining movies as the main star like he did in 10 Items or Less. ( A little favorite of mine).
Ruby Rose is also cool as the courier Vicki who is forced into taking out several not so nice Russian gangsters.
VANQUISH is also a good looking movie with it's blue tinged cinematography highlighted by slick quick editing during some tense action sequences.
This is no masterpiece by all means, but a great time waster for the times when nothing new or original can be found on cable or over the air tv.
VANQUISH is on par with films like Hard Rain. Den of Thieves Hurricane Heist, & Wanted.
No great feats just terrific stunts & gunplay. Ruby Rose seems comfortable in that fit
Turn off your brain & enjoy.
