The Good Son (1993)
Karen-Sue. Popliteal.
Almost thirty one years ago you and I went to a theater and saw this together. 520 some odd characters to go here and I don't really have a lot in mind from recollection to write a review on it from. Just going from other reviews here I think my recommendation for it won't be out of place. I don't want to start in adding spoilers. There goes at least one memory from it that is tempting to post,. 'Wouldn't it be something if you at some point in time browsed thru here and ran across this one. Maybe a brief laugh and smile moment and then... 53 char to go. I think of you now and then. Great Movie. ^_^ too.
The Purifiers (2004)
Excellent candidate for a Select * personal movie collection, a good fit any category of films you have
I don't recall how long ago I first watched The Purifiers. I do know that it would be Top Shelf in any movie collection category I put it into. This like David Byrne described CBGB in his Paris concert video, it ain't no disco, etc.- ( Stop Making Sense)- also, ROCK SOLID. DB/SMS THAT IS. :) One doesn't go from 30 seconds of movie straight to the ending. That is my summation of most of the Reviews , wannabe reviews, I saw here today. You will invest your time to see t his if you choose to, .. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU NOT PASS IT BY based on all those other jealous reviewers' comments. IT'S A WINNER.
Soul Assassin (2001)
Soul Assassin - 2day 3-23-24 movie is +++++ better than a lot of ratings here try to indicate.
Been many years since I watched this. Plan to do that again in the near future. I don't recall seeing Skeet in anything prior to this movie and a series titled Jericho has a lead actor that looks really a lot like S U . I have, it is indicated, 355 more required characters here. 320. So ... if you're thinking of a good movie to watch, this would be a good selection. Well, maybe not here on a review. Been many years since I watched this. Plan to do that again in the near future. Been many years since I watched this. Plan to do that again in the near future. 36 to go. Enjoy the movie. :) : :) ...
D.O.A. (1988)
D.O.A. better than the original
I haven't seen this again in ages and that underscores the impression it made on me the very first time I saw it. It isn't cut and dry that every remake comes out better than the original & I have seen the reverse happen before. Not the case here. When I see it again of course, changes in how movies have advanced techniques wouldn't put it on par with movies that come out now. This is not a case of symetric comparison.. this version is an improvement over the original that those who watch or have seen both may agree about. So you don't get a colorized clone of the original & there is more to meet and greet the eye. It is totally enjoyable and easy to recommend for viewing. I think most any/everyone would enjoy it.
No Time to Die (2021)
5 JFK's
If he'd been around to see Mr. Craig do Bond I think he would have found this done to the nine's, flawlessly. I loved the Connery touch with what had to have been a Waltham. Seeing it again is something to look forward to. Cheers!
The Unnamable II: The Statement of Randolph Carter (1992)
Covid-19,+18months,Oct.14,'21,FB posts scouting for good Halloween Movies. My Candidate here!!!
I hope my review title doesn't get chopped. The Unnameable II. Pot's legal so like a fri-13th movie, a good buzz won't hurtcha none. Here at Imdb, I hoped they'ed have a way to view it like other movies here. Damm the bad luck. This would be good on a rainy night, late +, lights out, doors and windows locked. It has been a very long time since I watched this. I had a sort of dbl take with Maria Ford's name,almost associating it with Lita Ford, who I also favor highly. A lot has changed in the film industry since this was made in 92' & there may be a tendency towards criticism- it it's day 29 years ago it was great and I hold that opinion of it now even tho I am gonna have to wait now the time it is going to take to locate and view it somewhere else. If you are looking for a good Halloween movie it is imho, worth your time to look for. I hope to also be enjoying watching it soon.
Streets of Fire (1984)
(Rock of Ages- the prequel)
Instantly became one of my very top favorites. Don't forget Willem Dafoe is also in this. With Bill Paxton & Amy Madigan. Review before me dated Nov-2005. The soundtrack & movie are a surreal symbiotic pair. A perfect fit. I think it's under-rated and I would have nominated it for an academy for the best screenplay. The tom cruise Rock of Ages does the same thing. First time I watched this, I thought Diane Lane did the actual singing, as Ellen Aim, her character. I very confidently recommend this for viewing..
Hanna's War (1988)
A totally under-rated, fantastic movie - Be entertained: watch it. :)
I do not want to add any spoilers to any reviews & will try not to.I did not read all previous ones. Watch it for its entertainment, historical, factual, appeal. Previews help; some seem to avoid watching or looking for them. Any movie needs to be someone's interest, genre', "cup of tea", & when not that.. why write something negative about a non interest? Hanna's War rates 11 stars out of 10, for me. I first saw it years ago- I was not let down by a preview nor the movie. I very much feel it will be the same for you. Check the run time,and enjoy. I truly think you will. Netflix also has a related movie/DVD.. Blessed is the Match,.. (wish there were more than 1000 words available for writing...)(1st IMDb review..)ps- still hopeful of count: the ending is nothing short of phenomenal.
