Highly Enjoyable Action Thiller
on May 30, 2017
Posted by: BigRonDawg
Verified Purchase:Yes
Top notch cast in a slick but highly enjoyable action thriller. Sort of a throwback 70's thriller with Jamie Foxx taking over for Steve McQueen as the anti-hero. You can definitely feel the European influences of the original. Slick action with some emotional context, excellent cast and you get a first rate thrill ride. Great popcorn movie!

Viva La France

Idris Elba is a force to me reckoned with. He has the ability to be a truly great action film star. This role was not perfect but he made it fun to watch and he great fun to watch in the role. I hope he continues in these type of roles. He needs his own franchise. He can carry that weight.

Well told Sci-Fi tale
on May 15, 2017
Posted by: BigRonDawg
Verified Purchase:Yes
this grounded sci-fi classic is still a great deal of fun to watch. Paced at a 70's pace but never boring, the bad guy is technology and it's hold on the population. Sound familiar? Could be why they brought it back in long form television.

a reimaging of the 47 Ronin, set in a time of knights and honor. While the story is large it focused on the character played by Clive Owen. As he planned with his men the downfall of the scoundrel that betrayed and murdered their lord.

One of those seminal pictures that left it's mark on a generation of movie goers and I am one of them. A must have for the collection.

First rate cast in a first rate movie!
on May 15, 2017
Posted by: BigRonDawg
Verified Purchase:Yes
Peter Berg has gotten very good at telling a thrilling true to life tale with little manipulation of the facts and characters. Revealing the human spirit and condition the creates heroes out of everyday citizens and those persons that choose to put their lives on the line on a daily basis, the first responders Police, Fire and EMS. One scene that especially got to me was the Highway Patrolman who stood guard over the body of an 8 year old boy until he was removed from the crime scene. His salute as they took the boy's body was with the dignity given to a fallen comrade in the line of duty.

Throwback to the Spaghetti Westerns of My Youth
on March 13, 2017
Posted by: BigRonDawg
Verified Purchase:Yes
I enjoy Westerns immensely, John Ford to Sergio Leone. Serials to lavish productions. In A Valley of Vengeance is a sort of throwback to those quirky Italian westerns of the 60's and 70's that were all the rage back then. Flawed hero's and villains that were more than just a black hat. I enjoyed this throwback to the movies of my youth and it is a tremendously entertaining little movie. John Travolta is an excellent bad guy and Ethan Hawke a perfectly flawed hero.

The Power of Faith
on March 13, 2017
Posted by: BigRonDawg
Verified Purchase:Yes
You can take many things away from this wonderfully entertaining movie, but the one thing that has gotten me each time I've watched it is sad fervent prayer, Lord let me find just one more. It is so heartfelt and moving and then to hear the actual Desmond Doss repeat that in his own voice at the end of the movie was the most moving moment for me.

The Newest Avenger Hits Town
on March 13, 2017
Posted by: BigRonDawg
Verified Purchase:Yes
I regret not seeing this in the theatre as it would have been quite the spectacle. In all it was a very good piece of film making that tells the origin story of Dr. Strange. Benedict Cumberbatch is excellent in the title roll and the supporting players are all well cast and raise the film to a slightly higher level than your superhero film. Humor, a character arc and excellent effects make for a wonderfully entertaining movie.

Favorite Movie of 2017
on March 3, 2017
Posted by: BigRonDawg
Verified Purchase:Yes
The music set the tone in so many ways for the film, it is the heart beat and ignites the passions and fireworks of the story. Beautifully written and realized by the musicians and actors who sing their own parts. I can't say enough good things about this soundtrack. Love it!
