Underrated Sci-Fi gem
on January 31, 2016
Posted by: RoaNoCommonSense
Equilibrium is an often overlooked and underrated sci-fi action film from the early 2000s.
Without giving too much away, the film centers around protagonist Christian Bale dealing with the reality of living in a dysotpian future where mass surveillance and drug-induced mind control rules all.
There are plot twists, PLENTY of action sequences and some beautifully choreographed "gun kata".
Absolutely a must for fans of action and science fiction.

A glimpse into the life after the lights....
on January 28, 2016
Posted by: RoaNoCommonSense
The Wrestler is a very grim, depressing look at the struggles former superstar pro wrestlers face once the fans, money and fame are gone.
Protagonist Randy "The Ram" Robinson juggles working menial jobs between occasional wrestling gigs, keeping up with his rent, trying to connect with his estranged daughter and wooing a local stripper.
The movie explores how aging grapplers of years past struggle to find their way in a world beyond spandex, steroids and bodyslams.

So Creepy, So Great, So Cronenberg.
on January 28, 2016
Posted by: RoaNoCommonSense
Cronenberg's 1986 remake of The Fly is one of the finest body horror films of the last 50 years, and a great peek into one man's descent into madness during his pursuit of human optimization.
Fantastic performances throughout the film and a great paced story which makes your stomach turn. A tragic tale in many ways, it serves as a stark reminder that we cannot, and should not, push science beyond acceptable boundaries and limitations.
Unfortunately, the sequel isn't all that much to speak of, but this movie will always have a place in my collection.

Operating directly under the National Command Authority, a relatively unknown entity of handpicked warfighters are called on when the mission must not fail. They are the Tier 1 Operators. They are real, living, breathing, precision instruments of war. They are experts in the application of violence. And they exist on an international level for various nations around the globe. In the U.S., their exact numbers, while classified, hover in the low hundreds.The new Medal of Honor Warfighter game is inspired by and has been developed with Tier 1 Operators from this elite, international community. This personal story was written by actual Tier 1 Operators while deployed overseas. In it, players will step into the boots of these elite warfighters and apply their unique skill sets to track down a real global threat, in real international locations, sponsored by real enemies. It doesn't get any more authentic then Medal of Honor Warfighter, coming October 23, 2012.

By the numbers shooter
on January 12, 2016
Posted by: RoaNoCommonSense
This is certainly a fun, but fairly standard, last-gen shooter.
While it doesn't do much to shake up the over-saturated genre, the fundamentals are there to make for an enjoyable experience.
The story is as typical and predictable as it gets, but the real staying power for this is the multiplayer anyway.

Thin in Plot but with a Triple Serving of Action
on January 8, 2016
Posted by: RoaNoCommonSense
Isaac Florentine and Scott Adkins team up for another bone-crunching effort in Close Range.
There is not much to spoil here when it comes to plot...it's razor thin and just a backdrop for Adkins to kick, punch, grapple and shoot his way through bad guys.
Sit back, crack open a cold drink and enjoy the ride.

Great Anniversary Set of a Timeless Classic
on July 29, 2015
Posted by: RoaNoCommonSense
The 50th Anniversary Ultimate Collector's Edition of Sound of Music is the definitive version of the film to own.
In addition to the feature film on Blu-Ray and DVD, there is a wealth of extras, the soundtrack on CD, digital copies of the film and a brand new documentary.
The restoration is incredible, and the colors really pop at you.

Dubai has been lost to Mother Nature's angry grasp. After a devastating sandstorm wipes out the once-great playground for the world's wealthiest elite, Dubai is now buried beneath sand and is the site of unspeakable depravity, overrun with ruthless outlaws and refugees. As Captain Walker, it's up to you to find and recover U.S. Army Colonel John Konrad, who is lost somewhere in this vast, tumultuous terrain. You'll be faced with brutal life-or-death choices that challenge your morality and bring you to your knees directly in the heart of darkness. Do you have what it takes to survive and complete your mission — with your sanity intact?Spec Ops: The Line is a provocative, third-person military shooter with rich cinematics and a dynamic environment. Take command of a squad of three men with individual skill sets, and discover what it means to truly be a leader. Whether you're completing ultrarealistic operations in the high-rise buildings of the city, combating the enemy at intensely close range or executing a well-placed shot to cause an avalanche of sand, The Line offers heart-pounding thrills and adrenaline-pumping action. Just be careful who you trust — not even the sand has loyalty, and it can make or break your mission. From the bold and luxurious architecture of Dubai to the devastating storyline and ferocious combat situations, Spec Ops: The Line takes military shooters to dizzying new heights.

An underrated gem of last gen
on June 29, 2015
Posted by: RoaNoCommonSense
While it had a fair amount of hype leading to its release, Spec Ops: The Line came and went without much fanfare back in 2012.
However, this game is an underrated gem and one which should be played. The game starts out as a typical military shooter with some squad based elements, but the campaign really revs up and ultimately becomes much more intriguing with many twists and turns.
Themes such as morality during war come up, and are handled pretty well. It's a refreshing take on the military shooter.

For decades, the Metal Gear Solid franchise has captivated fans with an edge-of-your-seat experience that demands cerebral strategizing, tactical stealth and the guts to run in guns blazing when the situation demands. In a move that both encompasses the core experience that Metal Gear Solid has always been about and completely revolutionizes the game, world-renowned Kojima Productions harnessed the power of your PlayStation 4 and the unparalleled FOX Engine to deliver a radical new game design with awe-inspiring presentation. Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes comes full force into your living room as the first segment of the Metal Gear Solid V experience and the prologue to the larger, second installation, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. So get comfortable, pick up your controller and dive into this visceral experience that showcases the meaning of tactical espionage gameplay.Welcome to the new Metal Gear Solid universe that introduces an open world design for the first time in the franchise. Experience total freedom of play and decide how each mission plays out — whether you want to use stealth or force to achieve completion — and live with the consequences of your decision as each tactic has different effects on advancement. Take your time completing the central story and engage in Side-Ops missions ranging from tactical action and aerial assaults to covert missions that will get your heart pounding. Jaw-dropping graphic fidelity combines with a clean in-game HUD that shows a minimal amount of on-screen data to deliver incredibly immersive and engaging gameplay. Whether you're new to the series or you've been with it since the start, you've never had a Metal Gear Solid experience like this.

A fine primer to The Phantom Pain
on June 11, 2015
Posted by: RoaNoCommonSense
While Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes gets a lot of flack for being a glorified demo masquerading as a retail release, it ultimately serves as a nice warmup to The Phantom Pain, which is coming out later this year.
Yes, the "Ground Zeroes" mission can be completed within 20 minutes or so. But there are a plethora of collectibles, side ops, extra ops and trophies/achievements to provide a decent amount of replay value.
Additionally, tinkering with the controls and getting used to the new FOX Engine is fun as well.
