Top Gun: Maverick (2022)
exceptional
Best filme of the yer because of multiple reasons. I just want to list here 2 observations that i consider to b minor errors
is a brief scene there is a picture written TJG where it was supposed to read LJG(i figure that it was the rank, Lieutenant Junior Grade)
there is a picture of Iceman dressed with a four star admiral coat, and below the picture is written commander
i would like to understand this.
Interceptor (2022)
good idea gone wrong
Thrilling beginning, nice idea for a plot, bad development. Could have been a nice action thriller in more capable hands and not so many absurds. A nice hero and a nice villain. The usual cliche of time-related issues(the time of a countdown differs from the hero time). Some scenes are so absurd that they are comic. The fate of the villain, considering what he had done, was overly disappointing. Best thing ? A heroine that can kick john mclane's ass.
The Most Dangerous Game (1932)
waste of 1 hour of my time
I liked the promised because hard target and surviving the game are excellent thrillers, but this thing is awful...horrible performances, low pace, death of dogs, some characters are ridiculous
how come zarff didn't notice ivan's corpse in the jungle ?
Aahhhg.
Sushi Girl (2012)
Nice disappointment
I decided to watch this movie mainly because Danny Trejo and Michael Biehn, two actor i love. Very disappointing they were onscreen for such short time getting killed so fast. I also wanted to see the sushi girl naked but i was also disappointed - i was expecting more frontal nudity, it would make quite a difference. Nevertheless, it is a very nice movie with great suspense and a good amount of violence.
Dangerous (2021)
surprise and disappointment
In my opinion Eastwood is quite a good actor and here he delivers a nice character. A sociopath hero. The villains are horrible. The plot is quite intersting. But Tyrese Gibson, Mel Gibson and Famke Janssen...what were they doing here ? A complete waste of such good actors...they simply do nothing importante, specially Janssen. But all in all, good enterteinment.
One Shot (2021)
kind of video game
Good movie with a lot of action, but the photography makes it look like we're in a video game. Frustrating to see Adkins in a movie with only 2 quick fight scenes. There's still a cliché of the character who should be dead but lives long enough to reveal something important. And after all the mess, the killings, the shots and explosions, what saves the day ? Just a...well, watch and find out.
Intervenção, É Proibido Morrer (2021)
message delivered but not received
The film is based on the real situation of the Military Police of Rio de Janeiro. To those who live in Rio, it is more like watching the news than a movie. This is the depressing life of the policemen and slum comunity. If only the State could understand the message...
The problem is: the State does not have the power to fight drug trafficking, because the State created it ! It should have been fought decades ago. Now, neither the police or the politicians have the power to fight crime in Rio.
Rocky IV (1985)
USA propaganda
Filmed during the Cold War. The "plot" : Soviet kills American. American gets revenge by defeating and humiliating Soviet. Typical USA propaganda to glorify the "American superiority". Complete crap !!!! Can't believe Stallone never had a muslim boxer as an adversary. This was the last Rocky movie i watched.
The soundtrack is sensational, tough.
Gutterballs (2008)
a piece of garbage
A complete waste of time. The gore is so fake it is comic. The over the top violence is a joke. The "69 death" could have been much better. The rape scene could have been more explicit.
All in all, one of the worst movies i have ever watched.
Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005)
thrilling
Nice and original plot
nice action, shootings and fights the way i love
but...a boat in La Paz, over 3000 m high ? How so ? To travel in a lake, perhaps ?
The Veteran (2011)
just horrible
The plot could be interesting, but the movie is very slow and sometimes confusing. And the end...when you think we will have some action...comes the WORST END I HAVE EVER SEEN IN A MOVIE !
Just happens tat the fate of the hero is not what we would expect.
Hunter Killer (2018)
quite a surprise
There are 3 elements i love in a movie: action, suspense and more than 3 known actors
the story is great and the ending was fantastic - russians saving americans !
The best Gerard Butler's film.
Sweet Girl (2021)
disappointing
It was a nice action movie until the horrible plot twist
what the sweet girl does in this movie is completely out of reality. A nonsense action movie, no more than this.
Si wang ta (1980)
extremely horrible
Mixing a movie with archive footage has disgraced Lee's legacy. This film is pure garbage.
The fighting sequences are good but too noisy. The acting is...some of the worts i have ever seen.
They should have respected Bruce Lee's memory not doing this.
Welcome to the Jungle (2013)
enjoyable
The film is quite funny, the island is very beautiful and Van Damme is out of his element, so to speak.
Megan Boone is.strikingly beuatiful(so bad she has no nudity scenes), Phil is a despicable and disgusting villain, even Van Damme is uite funny.
Way from being a hilarious comedy or a great filme, it is worth watching. Van Damme did much worse films in his element.
Blindspot (2015)
nice start, bad ending
Seasons 1 to 4 were outstanding. Great plot, amazing characters, lots of action and suspense but gradually it began to get confused, but yet enjoyable.
Madeleine burke was the worst villain i've seen: disgusting, despicable, even unpleasant to look at.
But the closing 5th season was HORRIBLE !!!! A very bad ending to a great show. Burke deserved to suffer a lot before die or being arrested - the chosen demise was the worst possible. And the excessive amount of hallucinations jane was having...completely unnecessary. Gave the impression that they were making things easy to the heroes. VERY disappointing.
Ninja: Shadow of a Tear (2013)
adkins at his best
I am not a fervorous fan of ninja films, but this is one of the best i've seen in my whole life. Great fighting scenes and a nice plot. And scott adkins is one of my favourite actors.
Pulp Fiction (1994)
a masterpiece
Simply one of the best movies of all time
great cast, great story, great evrything
the only thing wrong: should have won the oscars for best picture, actors, screenplay, sundtrack and so on
Tarantino at his best.
The Virtuoso (2021)
zero action in a boring thriller
In the hands of a capable writer and director, could have been turned into a good movie. But this was awful. I fell asleep twice during this less-than-two-hours picture. Not a single fight, pursuit or shooting, just absolute boredom in an intersting story with an horrible and somehow predictable end. PLease, IMDB, THERE IS NO ACTION HERE !!!!
Get Carter (1971)
boring
Ok, i am used to action-packed american movies, but this one is confused and slow for my taste. The ending was quite bad. Waste of almost 2 hours.
Assault on VA-33 (2021)
z-class die hard
Bunch of terrorists takes down a facility, put explosives all over the place and take some hostages - including the hero's wife. The cops are played as morons. One hero takes down the terrorists. Die hard 1 and 4(the final sequence...) with no quality whatsoever.
Mark dacascos and michael jay white - two great martial artis thar show their skills. By the way, what are they doing in this crap ???
Complete waste of 90 minutes of my weekend.
Blood and Bone (2009)
i was expecting more
When i learned about this movie i was expecting more fighting and less talking, and the fights are so quick...quite disappointing. And the final fight, which should have been the best, was actually the worst ! White and Mullins seem to be demonstrating rather than actually fighting.
Screenwriters should learn that martial arts movies - or movie with martial artists - should have more action(fighting) and less drama. This could make this film worth a lot more.
But it was not bad...
Wrath of Man (2021)
enterteining
The movie is quite good, although i think some of it quite confusing
disappointing to watch a movie in which jason statham has absolutely NO FIGHTING SCENES !!!
The role of Andy Garcia was not clear to me...neither was the relation of H with the FBI
but was quite enterteining.
10 Minutes Gone (2019)
garbage
It´s just so bad that i managed to watch less than half hour(not than half of the film). WHAT HAPPENED WITH BRUCE WILLIS ???? He is making only horrible movies(all produced by Furla) ! Well, the story is confused, the acting is lame and so on. Just crap.
The Final Countdown (1980)
a major disppointment
The idea was great but the result was - for me - quite disappointing
i was actually expecting the Nimitz going to battle altering the course of the war - which would give us a great war movie. But at the end...it was just an unexplicable weather phenomenon.
What was the point ???
