Totally agree! The late great Alan Rickman as Hans Gruber just pushes the original Die Hard over the top for me. I love this exchange (cribbed from IMDB)... Hans: The following people are to be released from their captors: In Northern Ireland, the seven members of the New Provo Front. In Canada, the five imprisoned leaders of Liberte de Quebec. In Sri Lanka, the nine members of the Asian Dawn movement... John McClane: [listening on the radio] What the ****? Karl: [mouthing silently] Asian Dawn? Hans: [covers the radio] I read about them in Time magazine. Reginald Vel Johnson also puts in a strong supporting effort as the police officer...T
I’m dreaming of a Hans Gruber Christmas…just like the ones I use to know…where the Ferraris glisten and the lambos listen…to hear Lussos in the snow… I’m dreaming of a McClane Christmas…with every mile I drive…May your V12 be merry and bright… and may all your Christmases Die Hard![emoji6] Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
The Last Duel Historical drama set in medieval France. Nice effort by Ridley Scott, staring Matt Damon, Adam Driver and Ben Affleck. Solid 7.5, IMO.
The Tomorrow War Chris Pratt, a couple others (I think the Farmer's Ins guy) Mindless, action, shoot'em up , alien flick. 2:18 long, twas ok.
Just watched "Last Night in Soho" - odd but very intriguing and spawned some good conversations afterwards. The filming and transitions between current day London and 1960s London were done really well IMHO and the storyline and associated twists were intriguing and (pleasantly) unpredictable. Cheers
Wind River (2017). I liked it. Interesting western thriller starring Jeremy Renner. Set in Wyoming (but apparently filmed in Utah). Wind River Valley is a beautiful place.
Just watched "Antlers" last night - Definitely a Del Toro film so if you like his stuff you will like it - if not you won't. I found it slow but he always builds his characters slowly and a lot of open unanswered questions (won't spoil with details) but overall it was intriguing - not really "scary" IMHO but a few jumps here and there. Seen LOTS worse and seen LOTS better - FWIW - Cheers
got terrible reviews, but i enjoyed dont look up. was supposed to be satire about climate change but works well w covid too. found it funny. and the lucy and desi story w nicole kidman was a great inside look into how tv shows are made. i love behind the scenes stories
I was watching this tonight The scene where Hawkeye is fighting someone in Japan about an hour in, the whole scene, there is a black Scuderia in the scene behind them....
The original Topgun on July 4th-in prep for seeing the new one. Jets, motorcycle, Porsche speedster.. Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
the gray man on netflix with ryan reynolds and chris evans. got horrendous reviews and i usually dislike this type movie regardless but it was a hoot! crazy cartoon type violence that makes you laugh out loud. extra plus is the movie is self aware at how ridiculous it is. give it a try if want some fun
We watched it last night and liked it a lot. I didn't think it was any more ridiculous than Bond or MI movies, and every bit as entertaining.
13 Lives... Ron Howard's take on the kid soccer team trapped in a Thai cave at the onset of monsoon season, and their amazing rescue by a team of Brit cave divers. Take a pass if you're claustrophobic... AMZ video.
"NOPE" - Was achingly terrible and pathetic- saw in Dolby theater which was a waste cause nothing worthwhile to hear-
Uncharted-2 hours of a Bond/Indiana Jones/National Treasure wanna be. Not great but not bad for a Sunday evening entertainment action extravaganza Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
The Adam Project on Netflix. I wouldn't have paid theatre prices to see it, but it was good enough for an evening at home.
