Of course he loved a movie where the lead wishes death on the world
Boy Kills World - 8/10
It was entertaining from beginning to end and action packed. It wasn't phenomenal. However, it was captivating.

A Quiet Place: Day One
6/10. Not nearly as entertaining as the first 2 installments, IMO. Not worth seeing in theaters.
It's nuts that it's summer time and there's nothing worth seeing in theaters right now unless you're 11 years old and haven't seen inside out
That's WOKE for ya.
You and Lee leave me hanging on Mayor of Kingstown.
I'm caught up. Got Qs.
I had to watch the season 2 finale to recall what was happening and I've seen episode 1. I guess a couple of actor contracts were up
Watched Moon again yesterday. Such a great underrated film. Sam Rockwell was in his bag on this one. The score is perfect if not haunting in some ways and you never really know if you can trust Gerty until you do.
Good reviews so far
Under Paris - 2/10
It's a snooze fest and not because I have an irrational fear of sharks.
Old B Movies...
Frankenhooker - 5/10, dumb
Brain Dead - 3/10, very dumb
My Cousin Vinnie - 6.5/10
funny plot, very hot chick, a little far fetched, kind of anticlimactic ending.
Joe Pesci with hair only a few years before the Home Alone series was funny though
Relocated a fine motion picture. I was browsing thru TUBI yesterday morning and came across a film I'd seen partially years earlier, but didn't finish and then it disappeared from the cable and I didn't remember the le. ...-The Remaining-... from '14.
It's concerns the Rapture. It's quick at 88 minutes and never pauses for horse . A group of early 20 year olds are attending the wedding of one of their group in a hotel ball room. Shortly after the "I do's" Rapture hits leaving some "dead" their eyes open and white. While the remaining people are left in panic as quickly a shrill sound is heard (First Trumpet).
Outside planes drop straight down from the sky and pandemonium takes full affect. It's world wide and labeled {Instant Death Syndrome] by Winester's beloved scientists.
The Book of Revelations forewarns that when Rapture takes place their will be devils (the fallen) who will appear, "many devils" and this film follows that line with gusto.
There is no lamenting why some were Raptured, the rest left behind. There is no accounting. Done is done.
TUBI has a good transfer quality on their platform with limited commercials.
Fly Me to the Moon - 9/10
Fun movie. Scarlet on top of her game. Channing Tatum has a sneaky great sense of comedic timing but my complaint is that he is too stoic here to handle Johansen's razor sharp zingers. Ray Romano and Woody were nice surprises.

"Triangle" with Melissa George & Liam Hemsworth [that's the one I've chosen for tonight.]
Bronson
[[[TUBI does run commercials, but they're not over long, or, frequent. They're the best commercialized stream I've been involved with.]]]
This is a American remake of Let The Right One In. Make sure you watch the original instead. It's much better.
Caught a winner 5AM this morning. ...-Forever Young-... in '23.
With the killer tag line..."We're all addicts, addicted to time."
Concerns an elderly couple, she is a writer of some repute. The husband is satisfied to go into the dust that is always the end, but, she, the wife, is not. She's approached by an elderly gentleman at a book signing event who wants her to write his story. He's invented an elixir that regresses age. She turns him down in disbelief. He comes again, this time to the front door of their home after self testing the elixir and is sheer perfection. Her husband doesn't want to do it, she does and is drop dead gorgeous.
This is not a horror film whatsoever. There is no double cross, just a study of age and how it works. And God love 'em it's not woke in any way, shape, matter, or, form.
One hour & 39 minutes is ample time to tell it, and it's told in no uncertain terms.
It's on the Prime stream at no additional cost.
ALERT!...warning! I made a mistake about which stream -Bone Tomahawk- is showing on. It's the MAX stream, not the Prime stream. Sorry about that.
The MAX stream brought in -Bone Tomahawk- in '15 again yesterday (at no additional cost) and I watched again, but FF thru (that) part. It's more enjoyable that-a-way.
I'll do 'er again tonight.
Thank Christ it got made before WOKE, otherwise I cringe at the thought.

I've been going thru ...-Aliens-... in '86 (Director's Cut) the last few days. It's on the MAX stream.
Cameron's reformation of the Marines is flawless.
Here: there is is no pissin', no moanin', no female pleadings. Right to the side arm.
It is her finest hour.
Gorman goes back so she will not die alone.
Vasquez admonishes him...then makes it...all 4 hands so that he will not die alone.
Slim picking with the new releases for August across the spectrum...Neflix, MAX, Prime. Ugh. Gonna be a long month.
One showed up kindly and it is a dilly.
In '85 -Return of the Living Dead-
Has a super blend of merciless horror gently laced with sharp comedy in the clutches. The culmination is tightly wound and released in a most professional sequence by the U.S. Army.
A girl named "Trash" in the movie (Linnea Quigley) [don't look her up, at 66].
She runs around for more than half this movie completely naked and she has an ass & attendant crack that is beyond description. She is adorable here.
Middlin' actors Clu Gulagher, James Karen, and Don Calfa legitimize the film on contract and the kids flesh it out.
It's at 91 minutes and everything is done before the bell sounds.
The production knew where they was going from start to finish with this story.
They knew.
It's on the Prime Stream at no additional charge.
"Sarge" jogs the box and we're under a "Yellow Rose of Texas" when Hudson stands on up, comes to the fore.
The waitress, her life would end as "Doris Ziffel">>>"Arnold's" mother. -Green Acres-
Hudson's daughter here (in the booth) (Carroll Baker) is livin's still at 93. Her reactions to her father's pummeling remains her finest hour.
...-GIANT-... in '56. It's on the MAX Stream.

My wife hated it.![]()
