The Purifiers (2004)
Excellent candidate for a Select * personal movie collection, a good fit any category of films you have
I don't recall how long ago I first watched The Purifiers. I do know that it would be Top Shelf in any movie collection category I put it into. This like David Byrne described CBGB in his Paris concert video, it ain't no disco, etc.- ( Stop Making Sense)- also, ROCK SOLID. DB/SMS THAT IS. :) One doesn't go from 30 seconds of movie straight to the ending. That is my summation of most of the Reviews , wannabe reviews, I saw here today. You will invest your time to see t his if you choose to, .. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU NOT PASS IT BY based on all those other jealous reviewers' comments. IT'S A WINNER.
Soul Assassin (2001)
Soul Assassin - 2day 3-23-24 movie is +++++ better than a lot of ratings here try to indicate.
Been many years since I watched this. Plan to do that again in the near future. I don't recall seeing Skeet in anything prior to this movie and a series titled Jericho has a lead actor that looks really a lot like S U . I have, it is indicated, 355 more required characters here. 320. So ... if you're thinking of a good movie to watch, this would be a good selection. Well, maybe not here on a review. Been many years since I watched this. Plan to do that again in the near future. Been many years since I watched this. Plan to do that again in the near future. 36 to go. Enjoy the movie. :) : :) ...
D.O.A. (1988)
D.O.A. better than the original
I haven't seen this again in ages and that underscores the impression it made on me the very first time I saw it. It isn't cut and dry that every remake comes out better than the original & I have seen the reverse happen before. Not the case here. When I see it again of course, changes in how movies have advanced techniques wouldn't put it on par with movies that come out now. This is not a case of symetric comparison.. this version is an improvement over the original that those who watch or have seen both may agree about. So you don't get a colorized clone of the original & there is more to meet and greet the eye. It is totally enjoyable and easy to recommend for viewing. I think most any/everyone would enjoy it.
No Time to Die (2021)
5 JFK's
If he'd been around to see Mr. Craig do Bond I think he would have found this done to the nine's, flawlessly. I loved the Connery touch with what had to have been a Waltham. Seeing it again is something to look forward to. Cheers!
The Unnamable II: The Statement of Randolph Carter (1992)
Covid-19,+18months,Oct.14,'21,FB posts scouting for good Halloween Movies. My Candidate here!!!
I hope my review title doesn't get chopped. The Unnameable II. Pot's legal so like a fri-13th movie, a good buzz won't hurtcha none. Here at Imdb, I hoped they'ed have a way to view it like other movies here. Damm the bad luck. This would be good on a rainy night, late +, lights out, doors and windows locked. It has been a very long time since I watched this. I had a sort of dbl take with Maria Ford's name,almost associating it with Lita Ford, who I also favor highly. A lot has changed in the film industry since this was made in 92' & there may be a tendency towards criticism- it it's day 29 years ago it was great and I hold that opinion of it now even tho I am gonna have to wait now the time it is going to take to locate and view it somewhere else. If you are looking for a good Halloween movie it is imho, worth your time to look for. I hope to also be enjoying watching it soon.
Streets of Fire (1984)
(Rock of Ages- the prequel)
Instantly became one of my very top favorites. Don't forget Willem Dafoe is also in this. With Bill Paxton & Amy Madigan. Review before me dated Nov-2005. The soundtrack & movie are a surreal symbiotic pair. A perfect fit. I think it's under-rated and I would have nominated it for an academy for the best screenplay. The tom cruise Rock of Ages does the same thing. First time I watched this, I thought Diane Lane did the actual singing, as Ellen Aim, her character. I very confidently recommend this for viewing..
Hanna's War (1988)
A totally under-rated, fantastic movie - Be entertained: watch it. :)
I do not want to add any spoilers to any reviews & will try not to.I did not read all previous ones. Watch it for its entertainment, historical, factual, appeal. Previews help; some seem to avoid watching or looking for them. Any movie needs to be someone's interest, genre', "cup of tea", & when not that.. why write something negative about a non interest? Hanna's War rates 11 stars out of 10, for me. I first saw it years ago- I was not let down by a preview nor the movie. I very much feel it will be the same for you. Check the run time,and enjoy. I truly think you will. Netflix also has a related movie/DVD.. Blessed is the Match,.. (wish there were more than 1000 words available for writing...)(1st IMDb review..)ps- still hopeful of count: the ending is nothing short of phenomenal.
