Mad Dog Time (1996)
4/10
Trigger Crappy
4 February 2009
"Mad Dog Time"..."Trigger Happy" whatever you wanna call it...simply doesn't hit the mark. Maybe its just me, maybe i just don't like Gangster comedies ( as i thought Oscar , Johney Dangerously and Mafia also sucked ) It's probably more "witty sharp wordplay" than all out Comedy, only its not as witty and sharp as it ( or the other reviewers )Make it out to be.

The Rick , Mick , Vic Thing was old to begin with making it a running gag was at times painful to watch.

There wasn't enough Changes of Location or Feel for the period they were supposed to be in. The Majority of the film was either set in "Dreyfus's Club" or a variety of Offices /dim rooms... ( what was with that Sit down Gun stand off thing Goldblum kept winning ?)

The supporting cast was... on Paper excellent ( great to see Silva & Drago)but characters were killed off before they had time to develop. and Richard Pryors cameo was a Joke ! The Romance and Love element of the film also bogged it down.

4/10 I don't think i'll return to it anytime soon.

Terminal Rush (1996)
1/10
Terminally Crap !
1 March 2008
Another tedious Outing from Don "the Drag on & on & on " Wilson... who, on this evidence seems to wants out of my "50 action stars better than Vin diesel" list.

This film is Poor in every department.... Cheap, Boring, with Poor dialog and 10 minute script made worse by some amateurish Acting ( which we'd expect from a Action B .. movie ) but in this its really bad. The Actors Speak Over each other,Mistime their Lines and are just plain wooden.

But so What eh ..at least we can relax and watch some mind blowing action and fighting, right ??...Wrong ?

Poorly executed Fight scenes ...probably improvised. The contact looks minimal and the Villains ( None of which look like terrorists or suit there costumes ) go down way to easy from Wilson's Boring and limited use of kicks and punches. There's No blood ..( Except for that terrible dyslexic 2 minute subsubsubsub plot where the guy writes Ratz in whatever it is them cheap bastards are using for blood. ) ... Actually writing Ratz in blood would probably sum this Movie up a lot better then i can.

Explosions are repeated three times over and nothing really explodes anyway just a few random Rocks being thrown into shot. ). Gun Shoot outs are like watching kids playing Army with Sticks. Even Roddy Piper cant save this Pile of Dung.

Stay Well Clear...My hunt for a good, no Acceptable "Don Dragon Wilson" Movie continues.

Lethal Tender (1996)
10/10
Water Loada Sh*t !!
25 February 2007
Warning: Spoilers
Its suppose To be Under Siege in a Water Plant.. But it ain't... Its a really Woeful action Movie and thats what i love about it... (Kim Coates) is given the freedom of the entire movie to act like a complete dick. but he does a good job ..and he's made a fan outta me. He leads a team of incredibly dumb terrorists into a waterplant and will pollute the water unless blah de blah blah.... Cue (Jeff Fahey) the Worst Hero ever...Jeff spends most of this movie talking about his brie omelette's and generally Hiding behind (Carrie Ann Moss )..Yes Folks John McClaine he Certainly ain't .. He Kills 1 Terrorist ( a female one at that) .. and he shoots her in the back !! (Gary Busey) Pops up as the Brains behind the Terrorism...Then he Gets greedy and starts Killing his own men...Which is a good job , becoz i don't Think Fahey was up for it... Fans of Busey will Enjoy his moments on screen.... Yeah its a Dodgy piece of Junk .....But it gets my seal of approval Busey & Coates keep it entertaining and although the Action is "Z list" standard the Unintentional comedy element is Top Notch

10 outta 10 for this Bad Boy

people like jonathan dabell are the reason the action genre is dead.

acid baths are all the rage you fool...but I'm sure your much happy watching your CGI Vin diesel crap !!... Your type are the kind who moan about tom & jerry cartoon characters smoking ... and strive to see them delete history to appease god knows who !!!

at the end of the day ... Death wish 5 ...Bronson is about 74 and hasn't lost his knack of knocking off the villains ...sum good graphic violence and typically vile villains ...( played to perfection by Michael parks) they don't make stuff like this anymore ...becoz u idiots prefare Borefests like " Miami vice " and weak soft core crap like the transporter

check this one out its Better than number 4 !!
