Great Action Movie

Advantages: The actors, storyline, length of the movie
Disadvantages: None

Well this has to be one of the best if not the best action movie i have seen, none others compare to it out there. The way the movie is planned out and the story line unfolds is gripping and the director has done a excellent job. There is not a lot of blood in this movie but its rated 18 because of the language and some scences of violence and the story line. The main characters play their roles superbly its one of Bruce Willis's best performances. ...
...and i couldnt stop watching it. I really enjoyed this and as soon as i saw it i went and bought it on DVD as soon as it was out it is now one of my all time favourites. If you like action movies then you must watch this as im certain you will enjoy it. ...

Review of Sin City (DVD)

One of the best action films of the 80s

Advantages: Excellent plot, Clever moves
Disadvantages: None

Die Hard is one of the best action films and definitely one of the top 80s movie. It made Bruce Willis' career and the Die Hard series spawned 4 more movies - culminating to Die Hard 4 release in 2007. --- the BASICS --- Die Hard is an action thriller film released in 1988. It starred Bruce Willis as John McClane - an eventual household fictional name. The film is directed by John McTiernan. The plot is actually based on the novel "Nothing Lasts ...
...THOUGHT --- (!!SPOILERS!!) The Die Hard series and many other action movies suffer from one thing - the main character is invincible. McClane took millions of bullets but is never killed - just mildly wounded (see Last Action Hero - an excellent spoof). Other than this Die Hard is anything but just another action movie. Its excellent plot, edge-of-the-seat action and clever moves leave its viewers guessing what will happen next. You always know McClane ...

Review of Die Hard (DVD)

Die Hard with tumbleweed - literally gave me nightmares

Advantages: Stylish, ultimately moral
Disadvantages: Make sure the kids are asleep before watching

I'm feeling quite smug because it had occurred to me that this isn't a gangster movie. John Smith (Bruce Willis) arrives like a time-traveller to what is clearly the 19th century wild west, but with prohibition. Then reading the review by jpegington I found out this is indeed a remake of a Clint Eastwood movie. It also manages to be a remake of Die Hard, because once again we have Willis as a loner fighting back against the odds, with the same near ...
...violent film that more than lives up to its 18 rating. Not because the violence is gory, but because it is unrelenting. I honestly did have nightmares after viewing this. On the other hand like many uber violent movies it could be argued that this is a very moral film because it underlines the pointlessness of it all. Willis as so often surprisingly good. But I'll have to disagree with others about Walken who I felt was sleep walking this one. Same ...

Review of Last Man Standing (DVD)

Full Throttle, it certainly is!

Advantages: Funny, entertaining
Disadvantages: Lots of sexual innuedno

Charlie’s Angels Full Throttle is the second in the Charlie’s Angels films. For anyone who doesn’t know, Charlie’s Angels are 3 women, Natalie, Dylan and Alex (played by Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu) who work undercover for the elusive Charlie. The films are based on the TV series from the 70’s (I think), and neither the films nor the series reveal Charlie’s face, all communication is done via a telephone speaker. The Plot This film ...
...to rescue US Marshal Ray Carter (Robert Patrick) who has been kidnapped and his ring stolen. Shortly after he is rescued, a second man is attacked and his ring is also stolen (I can’t remember the name, but he was played by Bruce Willis). The rest of the film follows the Angels on their mission to recover the two rings. The rings separately are no use to anyone, but together they form an encoded file detailing all the people who have been placed ...

Review of Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle (DVD)

Who needs Christmas Crackers with Bruce Willis around? BANG!!

Advantages: Great film with lots of action
Disadvantages: None for me

DIE HARD 2: DIE HARDER FILM ONLY REVIEW This is the second of four Die Hard films. The main character John McClane, of course, played by Bruce Willis. John McClane is a tough, brave, strong and ready for anything sort of guy - as we saw in the first Die Hard!! His story: John McClane was once a New York City police officer. His wife Holly played by Bonnie Bedelia finds a job in California and decided leave to start a life ...
...the L.A.P.D. Like Die Hard; Die Hard 2 begins on Christmas Eve in an airport, though this is in Dulles airport in Washington D.C. as opposed to L.A. International Airport. The Story: McClane is waiting for his wife to fly in , but his Christmas does not start off so good, when his car is towed away for parking in a tow away zone. When a group of unauthorized individuals walk into a baggage area which is restricted and usually locked off. ...
