Yes, this is a B movie that you could catch any given night on TV, but this is a hell of a B movie. Riding on the eighties vibe and slowly transcending into nineties it uses the best of both decades. In a lead role we have Rutger Hauer, a classical tough, macho man, he [...]

Created from a fake trailer that you have seen in Grindhouse package, this movie was a bit of a disappointment. Actually, it was made only because the trailer was so popular on youtube and Danny was pestering Rodriguez constantly to make it. So I was expecting a bit more content, but what we got was [...]

Another Nicholas Cage movie… We are now used to seeing him in crappy movies, but I must say that I quite liked this one. It was a classical return to the seventies revenge flicks with that grindhouse vibe going on, much like Tarantino/Rodriguez cooperation Grindhouse. The violence is over-the-top, suited to 3D needs, so you [...]

And here we have another movie with Father-Son issues(in a bigger extent then in The Rite). With a director that is most known for his documentaries (and lets not forget The Last King of Scotland and State of Play), I guess that a historical subject of this movie was a right move. I liked the [...]

First of all if you are willing to see a movie called Hobo with a Shotgun, you know what you are expecting to see. Exactly that. This movie was created from a trailer for Grindhouse [2007] by Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez, just like Machete. And just like Machete this is an Grindhouse, Exploitation flick [...]

With the upcoming remake (or reboot, redraw whatever the fuck they call it) of this movie, it is prime time to check out the original movie starring the irreplaceable Sylvester Stallone ( I mean that in a funny context) and Max von Sydow (not funny, he is great). I think that they could have use [...]

What a great movie, and I still can`t believe that I thought that this is going to be another lame ass action flick ready to milk the drugged and drowsy audiences across the world that just want muscles and action. And what perfect choice for the lead roles, Dwayne Johnson AKA The Rock possesses a [...]

Well finally i checked out this summer blockbuster with Mrs. Angelina Jolie as hot agent Salt. Keep it Salty, and all the other possible commercial crap that can be done with a movie title like that. First of all I think that Angie is too skinny for this type of action movie, I remember seeing her [...]

Although marketed as some very fancy and brutal movie, it proved to be another commercial milking project gone wrong. It is not that bad, but with such great potential they have gone in some strange religious/boring direction. I mean come on, what could be more adrenaline pumping story than a vicious conquerer who is on [...]

I really liked this movie, it combined comic style movies, action, comedy and pretty decent amounts of blood and violence. This is pretty odd, since the movie is pretty much teenager-oriented, but is still very original and unique in its conception. Dave Lizewski is classic high school loser who likes comics. One day he comes [...]

And at number one we have another volcano flick, although it was a close call, since Twister was really ok too. Starring charismatic Pierce Brosnan with his moisturising British accent (well at least for women) this disaster movie was a bit more realistic than the Volcano. After a scientist arrives in a small place under a [...]

At number two is this blockbuster with its amazing effects for that time. The famous flying cow is something that has not been seen before (or after) this flick. It is essentially a love story in the middle of the hunt for tornado. The effects even today look amazing and there are few good twister [...]

We are starting our top three 1997 disaster movie list with this epic movie. At number three it is the worst among them, and the reason for that is that totally unrealistic and pretentious script. Especially towards the end, you will find yourself saying lame at every other scene, it almost fits the category movies so [...]

If you want to see Mr. Matthew Fox from Lost in some other flick check out this one. Besides him it has a pretty strong acting crew and interesting approach to directing and editing.  Director changed a bit the original script since Sigourney Weaver and Forest Whitaker joined the team. It follows an attempt to [...]

This Danish comedy/action flick may be older but is still interesting and funny. It is very cute and it has that indie pulp fiction vibe like The pusher and some of Ritchie  flicks with a special European vibe. It tells the story of simple people in extraordinary circumstances, although it has a slow start it [...]

Virgil Cole and Everett Hitch are old school guns for hire, full of words of wisdom and experience. They arrive to the town of Appaloosa where they have been hired to bring to justice a local troublemaker rancher Randall Bragg. In this mess arrives a piano player Allison French, and of course Virgil falls for [...]

This is it, this is what we need in todays Twilight world. There are no pumped, half naked guys, no pretty girls, no good not bad, just life. This story about an aging group of robbers in the wild west is a true masterpiece, coming from a great director Sam Peckinpah. I am sure that [...]

Jackie Chan and ancient wars? At first glance this might seem to be another movie with thousands of archers, fighters, and great battles with amazing special effects, but this is not the case here. This is actually a road trip movie where Jackie plays an elderly soldier who captures enemy general and plans to turn [...]

This movie was very disappointing, I was expecting more of gaming vibe from a movie called gamer. I think that the screenplay and the whole story was written by someone with no experience in gaming, or a casual gamer. I guess that was the target audience. The society part of the movie was really good [...]

Coming to us from the director of Banlieue 13, and with support of Luc Besson, this movie did not manage to be good. First of all, the thing that irritated me the most is the utter usage of the plot of the Training Day movie. We have an experienced veteran and  young apprentice that still needs to [...]
