    “Reservoir Dogs” Movie Review

    “Reservoir Dogs” Plot Summary

    After a simple jewelery heist goes terribly wrong, the surviving criminals begin to suspect that one of them is a police informant. add synopsis

    Ten years on – still brilliant!

    It’s hard to get your head around the fact that ‘Reservoir Dogs’ has been around for ten years. It’s almost difficult to remember a time before Tarantino made such an enormous impact (good and bad) on movies, but I saw this movie first time round before the hype. All I knew was that, like another ‘dog’ movie from the same era that I saw, ‘Man Bites Dog’, that it was supposed to be violent, funny and disturbing, and that it starred a long time favourite of mine Harvey Keitel, and Tim Roth, who I mainly knew from Greenaway’s ‘The Cook The Thief His Wife & Her Lover’. Okay, I hope it’s good I thought as I waited in the cinema listening to some half remembered 70s A.M. pop and a strange conversation about Madonna’s sex life (the cinema was playing the soundtrack album before the main feature, but what did we know). Then the movie itself, electrifying and fascinating from the word go. It’s impossible to describe the impact of seeing this for the first time without knowing what to expect! Still one of my greatest movie memories. Ten years later I’ve seen it countless times so the surprise has obviously worn off, but it is still a brilliant movie because beneath the violence and wise-cracks of Mr. Pink (Steve Buscemi – ‘In The Soup’), Mr. Blonde (Michael Madsen – ‘Thelma & Louise’), and Nice Guy Eddie (Chris Penn – ‘At Close Range’), there is a lot of depth, that being the very human relationship between Mr. White (Keitel) and Mr

    Orange (Roth). To me that is one of the things that elevates this above the many lame and unoriginal ‘Tarantinoesque’ movies we’ve had to endure since ‘Pulp Fiction’. His imitators just simply don’t have a clue!Simply brilliant cinema, and a modern classic. This is absolutely essential viewing!

    “The Running Man” Movie Review

    “The Running Man” Plot Summary

    A wrongly-convicted man must try to survive a public execution gauntlet staged as a TV game show. add synopsis

    An outstanding action movie

    The Running Man is everything a film should be. It has copious amounts of violence, plenty of one-liners and a clever storyline. Arnie plays his usual type of character, the badass strongman up against the system. Running Man was made in the late 80s, one of the glory eras for action films. Back then, violence counted, and in this film there is more than enough to keep you entertained. There are plenty of highlights, but the best scene is probably when Arnie chainsaws his enemy, a rather fat and sweaty ‘chaser’ between the legs. Suffice to say, said ‘chaser’ does not enjoy the experience…… Other highs include the big shootout at the end, when Arnie leads a small Army of computer geeks into battle with his trademark cigar taking pride of place in his mouth. Richard Dawson is superb as the sleazy game show host Killion, and his tete-a-tete with Arnie at the end is excellent! The music is your typical 80s pumping rock and suits the tone of the film very well. Of course the writers are assuming that in the future there will be a huge 80s revival, but there you go…. This is certainly one of Arnie’s best outings. Its just a shame that today’s movies are so tame. They would do well to replicate Running Man’s levels of action.

    “Tango & Cash” Movie Review

    “Tango and Cash” Plot Summary

    Two cops are framed and must clear their names. add synopsis

    A great action comedy.

    Sylvester Stallone and Kurt Russell star as Ray Tango and Gabe Cash. This is the first time these 2 action stars have appeared on screen together. They both have good chemistry together and there are many funny one-liners. Tango and Cash are rival cops who ends up on the same case, but they’re both framed for murder. They lose their case and end up in jail, even worse they end up in general population after being switched overnight.

    This was set up by a man who wants Tango and Cash off the streets because they’re the two toughest cops. Tango and Cash team up to break out of prison and find the man who framed them. The movie has plenty of funny moments, great shooting and fighting scenes. This is over the top and cheesy at times, but a really good action movie. This is just about the only movie where Stallone is funny too. He plays a character much different from his usual characters. Sly and Kurt Russell are 2 of the best action stars and they make a great duo. The movie also features a 25 year old Teri Hatcher who looks much better than she does now.

    The cast is great, the movie is action-packed and the film is funny. This is very entertaining.
