FROM THE WORLD OF JOHN WICK: BALLERINA

FROM THE WORLD OF JOHN WICK: BALLERINA

I miss the suit. I know it’s crazy, but the conservative, and bullet-proof. Black suit that John Wick sports while doing the impossible makes a statement. It does show up, as does Mr. Wick himself, in From the World of John Wick: Ballerina, but it only makes me miss it more. While, not as hyperbolically… Read More »

GODZILLA VS. KONG

GODZILLA VS. KONG

If there were special awards for truth in advertising when it comes to movie titles, GODZILLA VS. KONG would sweep them. Essentially, that is all there is to this extravagant spree of special effects and occasional camp. The plot, and there is a great deal of it, is completely subservient to upping the ante when… Read More »

ONE NIGHT IN MIAMI…

December 31, 2020 By Leave a Comment

ONE NIGHT IN MIAMI…

The story of ONE NIGHT IN MIAMI was inspired by actual events, which leaves plenty of room for speculation about what Malcolm X, Cassius Clay (shortly to become Muhammad Ali), James Brown, and Sam Cooke talked about in that motel room on February 25, 1964. If it was less the dialectic presented here, what each… Read More »

ANGEL HAS FALLEN

ANGEL HAS FALLEN

The word is carnage. ANGEL HAS FALLEN never goes more than a few minutes without someone or something being taken out. Sometimes in multiples. Often with a fiery conflagration. Very often. This third in the series featuring dogged Secret Service agent Mike Banning (Gerard Butler) finds our hero happily settled into blissful domesticity with wife… Read More »

JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 3 — PARABELLUM

JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 3 — PARABELLUM

There is no doubt that part of the appeal of an action film is the chance to see things out of the ordinary.  Like things being blown up real good, or brawls that shatter the laws of physics.  And so it is with JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 3 – PARABELLUM, based on the graphic novel series. … Read More »

JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 2

JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 2 starts with Mr. Wick doing what he does best. That would be mowing his way through a horde of adversaries with a cool precision and a lethal effect. While he is doing this, we are reminded, or introduced to, if we haven’t see the first film, just who exactly Mr. Wick… Read More »

JOHN WICK

November 7, 2014 By Leave a Comment

JOHN WICK

JOHN WICK is a sleek and unrepentant film about revenge and redemption.  Set in a parallel world to ours, one populated by criminals who live by a strict set of rules, conventions, and etiquette, it is a dark fantasy of violence in which the hero isn’t the pacifist, it’s the guy who really loves his… Read More »
