XXX:EXTREME ACTION
Review of XXX (DVD) by
mihir517
Advantages: GREAT ACTION,AMAZING LOCATIONS,GREAT SCREENPLAY
Disadvantages: WEAK STORY PLOT
what can i say!if you are looking for performance in a action movie well then better don't watch it.BUT just the action sequences are awesome.no other word for it.guys who like fast cars,stylish clothes and VIN DIESEL i have only one thing to say .guys this one takes the cake.i loved the female,yelena(ASIA ARGENTO).she's hot.
NOW,the details :story sucks,action rules,soundtrack is just fine for this genre and i loved the DVD as for action movies ... ...i can always catch up when i am free.
One thing to be kept in mind before selecting any movie is the DIRECTOR.ROB COHEN directed "fast and the furious","daylight"and "dragon:Bruce lee story".all of them were great action movies so i can trust him.
so,people just go through some price comparisons and just buy it.this one truly deserves to be in your action series collection. ...

Ever heard a dragon say, 'Yes, Miss Moneypenny?'
Review of Dragonheart (DVD) by
pmcds
Advantages: Great film
Disadvantages: None really
...good direction and acting make Dragonheart a very interesting film indeed. The film was released in 1996, and stars Dennis Quaid, and David Thewlis, with the voice of Sean Connery as a huge, CGI dragon. The director, Rob Cohen, off the back of a 3 year gap since filming Dragon: The Bruce Lee story, gives the film some zip and brings everything together rather well.
King Einon (David Thewlis) has semi-immortality following his acquiring half a dragon ... ...hungry ruler, and dragonslayer Bowen (Dennis Quaid), a washed out soldier, seems to be the only one who can bring him down. However, on finding the dragon, he realises it's not going to be as easy as he first thought.
What struck me first of all about this film was its reluctance to go into dragons in terms of how we associate them. It brushes over the legend of the dragon and the dragon fighter and goes straight for the jugular with the power hungry ...

XXX2
Review of XXX - Extreme Edition / XXX 2: The Next Level (DVD) by
Tim.Bates
Advantages: Great action some good music in it
Disadvantages: none really
...I do like the second xxx 2 the next level better that the first. I hope they bring a thrid out, the way the second is left leaves it open for a follow up. Vin is a really good actor but he is hardly in the second of any of his films and this is no exception. The second one is more upbeat and positive. The idea of the film is to recruit seceret agents that have been "Bad" a little like assasin if you have ever seen that. The agents then go undercover, ...

Daylight
Review of Daylight (DVD) by
blissman70
Advantages: great action packed dramatic movie...in a tunnel
Disadvantages: none really
...survive long enough to see daylight again.
The opening scenes, with the police chase and the lorry loads of toxic chemicals, the movie gets straight to the point, with the simplicity of how certain events can cause so much disaster. Stallone plays his usual style as the action hero with attitude and a skill of surviving what would normally kill any mere mortal, it is like Rambo in a tunnel.
It is the type of movie which sees a group of strangers ... ...reach there goal, watching how the rich, the poor, the young and the old join forces and become one, watching as the group deal with one life threatening problem only to stumble across another.
The story line was well written, if a little slow in parts as the audience is introduced briefly to the tunnel dwelling characters. Stallone plays his usual style as the action hero with attitude and a skill of surviving what would normally kill any mere ...

Stealth. It's crap.
Review of Stealth (DVD) by
TheDuke
Advantages: Starts off well. Amazing special effects.
Disadvantages: All over the place. Cruddy dialogue. Can't make up its mind what it wants to be.
Stealth is an interesting movie, but probably not for the 'right' reasons. While at times it's a completely formulaic action movie, it strives to be more intelligent than it actually is.
"In the near future", out of four hundred applicants for a new Navy programme, only three aviators have been selected. Of course, being America, they're all young and easy on the eye and not at all the experienced aviators you'd expect to fly the state of the art ... ...its own hands...
When Stealth is going through the phase where it's nothing more than a glammed up Top Gun clone, it actually works quite well. The attractive looking cast fit well into their attractive looking planes and wage attractive looking war. Stealth, at these times, is fun and easy on the eye. However, when the film tries to get clever (Gannon's endless posturing about war, for example), then you can see the strain as Stealth tries to be ...
