21 Bridges (2019)

More This, Less CGI Superheros

[8/10 · 25 November 2019]

If you likes Sicario and Triple 9, you will like this. I hope Hollywood makes more movies like this one. Just the right amount of action, drama and suspense. If you like fast edits and CGI explosions every five seconds, skip this one and wait for The Hulk vs. Groot. In conclusion, great movie.

Mile 22 (2018)

Do Not Read The Reviews

Except this one. Peter Berg has Shaky-Cam Syndrome, so the fight scenes with Iko do not look as good as they should. Mark Wahlberg does a really good Dead Pool impression. Rhonda is basically making a cameo. In conclusion, this movie has machine guns, martial arts and motorcycles. You can't go wrong with that combo! Santa will be bringing me this movie (on DVD) for Christmas.

xXx: Return of Xander Cage (2017)

This is what The Fast and the Furious wants to be.

I do not know why everyone hates this movie. No one goes to see Vin Diesel and thinks, "Citizen Kane caliber performance coming up." This is a great Saturday afternoon action film. There is not too much CGI and no stupid comic book characters. This is not Sicario, but it's not Transformers either. I have seen much worse. They say, "January is where movies go to die." The distributors of this movie knew it had enough strength to survive. Do not listen to the Hatters. Donny Yen is great, Tony Jaa's part is too small, but good. Deepika and Ruby look delicious, and Vin looks real good for being nearly 50! Give XXX a shot, you will have fun.
