Am I the only one who liked and loved this movie?
Last Action Hero (1993) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107362/ The critics killed it. The audiences crucified it. It flopped at the box office. Plus it's theatrical release date was chosen very pooly: a week after Jurassic Park came out. It had no chance at all! I loved it!! I must have seen it 3 times in the theaters and a dozen times on home video. |

You're not alone Wildtig, I love it too, i like the self-parody in it. Not sure why so many people disliked it. |

Glad I am not alone anymore.
Bridgette Wilson was hot too at the time being only 20 years old. Too bad her movie career didn't go anywhere. |

Quarantine (2008)

This saves you the trouble... and the jail term. Rotten Tomatoes rates it at 5.7/10 which may be a bit miserly. I'm only part way through and feel it deserves more than that (maybe a 7?) I've seen similar low budget 'shakey cam' horror that are far worse. It's a remake of the Spanish film 'REC.'. The partial quote above is from Wikipedia, which gives the whole story away. A huge 'spoiler alert'. trailer |

What I would add is that I would love to see a remake of this film, taking all the themes as seriously as this original does but adding a good script, good acting, good cinematography & SFX and good direction. That the film is so memorable in this incarnation suggests it could be the basis of a genuinely great modern remake.

Latest movie I watched was the 2015 Japanese film Our little Sister. The story of three sisters who grow up in their grandparents big old house after their parents desert them. When the film opens the sisters are 29, 22 and 19 and they reluctantly go to their estranged father's funeral where they meet their 14 year old half sister for the first time. As she has no one to care for her, they invite her to live with them. A gently paced, warm film about love and family. It's one of those feel good films that leaves you feeling sad when it's over. You'd like to spend more time in their lives. |

Mission: Impossible - Fallout
Boy loses plutonium cores.Boy tries to get plutonium cores back but the C.I.A and the past are standing in his way. PRAISE:Tom Cruise has a laser focused dedication to his films and does his own stunts at great physical risk to himself.He's the showman that wants to thrill the audience consistently but of course with his own pleasure of doing stunts blended in. This is the first direct sequel to an MI film and with all of the double,triple crosses and double dealings in the film 100% of it shouldnt work and flow easy,but we will get to the lacking percentages later. Fortunately for the most part there is a good flow to the film and Director Christopher McQuarrie who also wrote the film maintains his course with small and large scale action sequences from a bathroom brawl to a beyond thrilling helicopter chase.This is all blended with a great cast which includes:Henry Cavill ,Ving Rhames,Simon Pegg ,Rebecca Ferguson ,Sean Harris,Michelle Monaghan Angela Bassett and Alec Baldwin. There was enough emotional weight to further pulled me into the plot. PROBLEMS:I could see the film straining under the weight of the plot at times,and its 2 hour and 30 minute length could definitely be felt as some sequences in the film felt a bit drawn out. This was a highly enjoyable action film,definitely a blue print for other MI and action films to come. Scale of 1-10 an 8˝ Teen Titans Go! To the Movies This will be short and to the point because i am not a fan of the television series Teen Titans Go!. I liked it when it still had an edge but when they decided to make it kiddie and completely wacky i was done. I come from the days of the hard hitting Teen Titans comic book with great writing from Marv Wolfman and artistry of George Pérez,but when you are raising a teenager some things you cant avoid in this life even though you really want to,so of course i watched a couple of episodes and i took my seat in a theatre to watch TTGTTM. PRAISE: I laughed out loud several times,there are great sight gags,i liked how DC and WB allowed themselves to be the focus of many jokes.Brilliant pop culture references.This film works as a stand alone parody. PROBLEMS:It is beyond repetitive,with a lot of silly nonsense and bodily waste humor.Some things that were supposed to be charming were absolutely annoying.Extremely predictable plot. So with all that praise would i give the TV show Teen Titans Go! a chance.......NO !! Scale of 1-10 a 6 |

This isn't
At all a run of the mill horror. Not that I`m saying it`s as near perfect as the professional reviewers claim. Concerns Joan (Emma Roberts) who feels drawn (For reasons we know not) to an out of the way (Aren't they always) all girls prep school. A place that should be empty of pupils right now. Yet where Rose and Kat find themselves stranded. If you like slow build ups , and I mean really slow. If you like the supernatural ,a mystery that`s keeps you guessing and a directer influenced by David Lynch. Then you might enjoy the tale. Must admit (As with Wilding) only checked this out as a major fan of James Remar Who during his few scenes brings the hammer down heavy and true in the acting stakes. Mind you every actor is flawless. Which is why I give
