Vintage Besson - far better than "Leon"

Advantages: Slick, beautiful and exciting film - the best of Besson for me
Disadvantages: Subtitled, therefore some will miss out

...serviceable as the Clerk that Nikita falls for, but the award for screen-stealing goes to Reno as Victor the cleaner. Absolutely suberb. Awhile back a friend asked me if I wanted to see "The Assasin" - I declined. Without even seeing the film I knew what the Hollywood remake treatment was like and had no wish to see such an inferior movie. I did, however, check with all the Film reviewers in papers, etc that I think are normally worth a damn (I.e. ...

Review of Crank (DVD)

The fast was fast and the furious were furious

Advantages: Effects, Performance
Disadvantages: Ending

Overall the movie turned out not to be as boring as I thought it would be. When I heard about it I thought "great another movie about fast racing cars". After wathching it, my opinion changed. The actors/actresses performances were very well done. The effects made you hold your breath untill the sence was over and want to know what happens next. Being that I watched it after the fourth one was already out It was perfect Knowing ther was more to come. ...
...see this back round info.The reason it was good instead of excellent was because of the ending, which was really cool but could have been better. Unfortunetley, withut spoiling the movie there is only so much I can tell you. Thankyou for reading and I hope It was Excellent. ...
