Well made, acted and edited.

Warning: Spoilers
One of Cage's better films.

The devil here is moving cocaine.

None of the character's here are innocents If the agent in charge would have killed the man instead of the cook her vengeance could be seen as justified.

The man poisoned her sister however, the agent in charge and her number one took it upon themselves to track down, morally preach to then kill the cook in his kitchen.

No good guys, lots of dead guys.

Much closer to reality than most cop/dope dealer movies.

If you are a fan of Cage, Fishburn and the rest of the cast here I recommend you take the time to watch this.

It is 08/08/23 as I write this so..........

The Blackout (2019)
8/10
This is an original
14 December 2021

The acting was good, the effects are well done, it is a very well done action Sci-Fi, and I assume the voices are overdubbed as this is a Russian film if so the overdubbing was excellent.

Spoilers Below:

The idea that I am a virus planted here to wipe out the advanced society who built the pyramids etc... is a unique idea I have never seen in a film or frankly considered. I won't go to deeply here, watch to see.

The problem that many will not accept is that aliens created the idea of a loving god to keep us in check. Again I won't pursue this see it for yourselves however, for believers in Christ myself included I have to conclude this as a negative, in someway deal breaker in an otherwise very good film.

I am seeing more and more references to the Sumerian cuneiform that I cannot read for myself (kind of hmmm), making a similar claim in the Sumerian creation myth Enuma Elish.

I do not want to soap box here however, I see this as a religious "which came first the chicken or the egg" since we will never know the exact date, and cannot go back in time yet for our atheist scientist to claim they can date anything by carbon decay, but will claim this as if they have already have solved time travel.

So, the Sumerians pecking on clay were thousands of years later writing down their oral story it's likely been embellished by each orator if by some chance they were correct.

Oh yea, the movie just watch it, and make up your own mind.

The cherry on top of this cake is Isabella Miko.

This is a entertaining movie well worth the time (Tubitv). Well thought out, and filmed by professionals. The story is a unique one so take the time. Also could have been Val Kilmers last film before he got sick, not sure, gained some weight but still a very good actor here.

The cherry on top of this cake is Isabella Miko. Isabella at the height of her looks.... I mean she is Hotttttttt in this film. If you are a male who loves to watch extremely good looking women, watch this or hand in your man card

Grindhouse flick would make Tarantino proud.
22 June 2020
If you understand what Grindhouse movies are about you will love this film

First of all I want to get this out of the way: In any SHTF scenario I would choose Whitney Moore to suffer the consequences with, she is hot.

This film showed when you love a a genre of movies based on stylistic conventions you can make a good film.

The Burrowers (2008)
10/10
Unique, surprisingly good western with a original horror twist.
21 June 2020
Having watched many unknown and direct to DVD's this is a gem. It is a fresh idea with many actors I know, not knowing they were in this. It is definitely not formula. Watch it if you like Westerns and or Horror.

Max Steel (2016)

Good Family Film For "Children"
24 January 2017
Maybe all of you super sophisticated film noir wannabe's should stop watching movies for 12 and under children.

The movie has a plot, the problem for these critic's is they only respond to repeated sexual references or TA to keep their attention. Move along there is plenty of that to keep you inspired.

This is a family flick that a parent doesn't have worry their six year old is going to be given an unwanted dose of Hollywood sexual innuendo and bare behinds etc....

If not for these film snobs a second film for 12 and under children would have been nice to have been made. We enjoyed this one.

Passengers (I) (2016)
10/10
An excellent film you can take your family to see.
23 December 2016
If you go to see a movie to figure out how you could make a better movie, or need something exploding the entire time you will need to see something else.

This is a love story at its essence. The special effects are used to enhance the story as a background for the actors.

Take your wife, girlfriend, or a date and have a good time, the critics have missed the mark on this one.

Now I must write three more lines of to pass the guidelines. Now I must write two more lines to pass the guidelines. Now I must write one more line to pass the guidelines. Now I must write no more lines to pass the guidelines

No Sequel Needed.
30 May 2015
Warning: Spoilers
The first half of the movie was entertaining… just as I was about to express this the film flipped over on its back and crapped all over its self, then smiled as if that was amusingly quaint.

Only the director Matthew Vaughn, producers, writers, and Mr. Super Star Capital the One and Only Samuel L. Jackson could find humor in debasing Christians alluding to all folks from the state of Kentucky by name, several times, bloatingly supreme with a stiff upper lip showing an intimate knowledge of said churches existence based on racism with the people attending completely unworthy of anything but a good old sadistic blood orgy with a Kingsmen axing women, and men all with the lust only the self-righteous could muster, then with a gleam in eye gave us all a Urkel "Did I do that"…

Stupid waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaste…. Could have been a very good series with sequels, they blew that.
