Stagecoach (1986)
A reasonable remake of a classic
This story from the pen of Ernest Haycox with his short story "Stage to Lordsburg"
has been put on the screen a number of times both as theatrical and TV movies and as episodes of TV shows. This version starring the "Highwaymen", Cash, Kristofferson, Jennings and Nelson is not the worst of the remakes. Johnny Cash is competent as the marshall and Kris Kristofferson is good as the Ringo Kid. Classics should not be remade. That being said this is a fair crack at redoing a classic, director Post knows his stuff. I revisited this version after enduring the horrible 1966 remake with the stellar cast of Ann Margaret, Bing Crosby et al.
If you need to while away some time this is not an unpleasant film.

Exposed (2016)
Absorbing
I just saw this on Netflix under the title of Daughter of God, which I believe was its original title. I don't expect much from a movie other than to be entertained and this does just that. Ana de Amas is very good and Keanu Reeves is exceptionally cast as the detective. The twist at the end makes this movie worthwhile, 8/10. Desimac.
