Roadhouse DVD

Advantages: Action Packed
Disadvantages: Not For Children

Roadhouse James Dalton, (played by Patrick Swayze) Brad Wesley, (played by Ben Gazzara) Elizabeth Clay, (played by Kelly Lynch) Wade Garrett, (played by Sam Elliot) It has been a long time since I have seen this film but remember it well. Patrick Swayze plays Dalton, and he runs a club. One night someone asks him if he is interested in working for him doing the same job that he is doing now but for a lot more money, Dalton thinks for a moment ...
...flight to his club called the "Double Duche" but he refuses to fly and drives there on his own. Having been a bouncer at other clubs he no's what he is letting himself in for and get prepared for the worsed by changing her car to a banger and get a supply of tyres, as he is about the sack some of the staff there. Before he does anything he props himself up at the end of the bar for a while and just watches and does nothing at all but watch. There ...

Review Of The Hulk Movie We Enjoy/Hate

Advantages: some action to enjoy! interesting start to the film
Disadvantages: a bit too long

...from Universal was that the Hulk should battle terrorists but France had disliked it. Who was in the film? Eric Bana as Dr Bruce Banner/Hulk Jennifer Connelly as Betty Ross Cara Buono as Mrs Krenzler Nick Nolte as David Banner Celia Weston as Edith Banner Sam Elliot as General Thaddeus Josh Lucas as Major Glenn Talbot What you liked/disliked about it? While I was watching the beginning of the movie to know if it would entertain me, I found ...
...really good scientist and the mutant DNA had passed onto his son Bruce. I thought a little about what the mutant DNA might do and I was curious until I saw the results which came before me. I had also enjoyed the moment when Bruce was turning into a monster because it was interesting to know what was happening to him. I can describe the moment as scary. The movie had some action throughout as well which kept me on my seat for a long time! However, ...

When men were men

Advantages: Patrick Swayze rips someones throat out with his bare hands
Disadvantages: The sequel is bad, bad, bad

Okay, I thought to myself this. The first movie on its own costs pretty much the same as both movies put together so why not get 2 for the price of 1? Anyone would think the same. Let me talk about the first film, after all, this is the reason why I purchased this delightful gem of a double pack. Patrick Swayze, the best damn bouncer in the business. He goes to a small town in the country that is run by a wannabe mafia boss who terrorises the local ...
...not least, the owner of the club that Swayze has been hired to clean up. Let's clear one thing up straight away, this film is ridiculous. It's so ridiculous that it's good. To give you a taste of this, bouncers are treated like movie stars. Everyone knows who Swayze's character is as if he has appeared in the glossy celeb mags every other day. He also rips someones throat out with his bare hands. Apart from all that, I still enjoy watching this ...

Review of Road House/Road House 2 (DVD)

~ Fathers, Husbands, Brothers & Sons~

Advantages: Great Cast, Good acting, nice filming locations
Disadvantages: quite a long film

...watching the local rugby games, we decided to kill two hours and watch a film. We do buy a few DVDs now and then and my boyfriend had brought a few back with him. We decided on watching the war movie ‘We were soldiers’. I thought I had already seen the film but knew it was a really good film. This is another film which includes one of my favourite actors- Mel Gibson. He plays many good roles and this is no exception. Having his name star as the main ...
...on true events of history. We were soldiers is based around the Vietnam War which I do not know much about so it was good to see more of what happened there. Even though we had both seen this before at some point, we both wanted to see it and knew it was a good film. It is one of those films where you do need to listen on what is happening but it is not complicated and it is not hard to follow. The director Randall Wallace has not directed many films ...

Review of We Were Soldiers (DVD)

Ghost Riders In The Sky

Advantages: The theme music and some decent special effects
Disadvantages: The plot, script and general all round storyline

...only if he becomes the Ghost Rider and stops his evil son Blackheart from destroying the world. The transformation of Ghost Rider to the big screen is the latest in a long list of Marvel comics to be made into a Hollywood blockbuster. Just like the majority of those films it also finds itself added to the list of rather poor comic book to movie conversions. While that is not totally fair it is quite true. The film itself had a bit of potential and ...
...good and the graphics for Ghost Rider really work quite well. In fact from a directorial point of view this is a much better film than Daredevil could ever have hoped to have been. Like his previous film the main problem with Ghost Rider is the script. While it is important to build up a bit of characterisation and let you know a bit about the characters I felt that Johnson went too far with some characters and seemingly ignored others. The end ...
