“Pulp Fiction” Movie Review
“Pulp Fiction” Plot Summary
The lives of two mob hit men, a boxer, a gangster’s wife, and a pair of diner bandits intertwine in four tales of violence and redemption.
amazing
this is a film that gets better and better each time you see it, the dialogue is just superb, its funny, clever and realistic, the film is set around different groups of people and each character puts in a performance, nobody lets the film down. Even if their role is only small, they still do the job.
the cinematography is inspiring, as a student it really makes me want to go out with a camera and film, the shots are clever and effective, just a beauty to watch.
the soundtrack is one of the best iv heard in a film, every song fits.
I’m not going to spoil the film or go in to much detail but it is a film you have to see, once, twice, or a hundred times…

“Born on the Fourth of July” Plot Summary
The biography of Ron Kovic. Paralyzed in the Vietnam war, he becomes an anti-war and pro-human rights political activist after feeling betrayed by the country he fought for.
A forgotten masterpiece!
This has to be one of the the best war films I have ever seen. Where ‘Saving Private Ryan’ fell into a whirlpool of schmaltz or where ‘The Deer Hunter’ caught ‘bad ending’ syndrome, ‘Born’ stood out. It is also the best Oliver Stone film I have ever seen. Where ‘Platoon’ looked cheap and lacked characterisation, where ‘JFK’ felt smothered in special guest cameos, where ‘Natural Born Killers’ looked silly and cartoonish and well, where ‘Scarface’ was just plain shameful, ‘Born On the Fourth of July’ stands out above all of these titles. It confronts you with the true, unrelenting horrors of the Vietnam war with the use of disturbing flashback sequences, kinetically energetic gun battles and slow-motion violence
This film also proved that Cruise was an artistically satisfying actor as well as a commercial one (think ‘Top Gun’). I think we can all agree that this was definitely his tour de force (and, if you’re a ‘Usual Suspects’ fan, you can actually spot Stephen ‘McManus’ Baldwin in the scene where Ronnie and his friends are discussing their futures in a cafe). Sorry if I went a little off the topic at hand there, but I thought some of you might find that interesting. Anyway, if I had to summarise ‘Born On the Fourth of July’ in a few words I’d say something along the lines of really, really, really good or more poetically, moving and unforgettable.

“Broken Arrow” Movie Review
“Broken Arrow” Plot Summary
Terrorists steal nuclear warheads from the US military but don’t count on a pilot and park ranger spoiling their plans. add synopsis
One of my favourite overblown 90’s action flicks!
Broken Arrow starts as pilots Captain Riley Hale (Christian Slater) & Major Vic Deakins (John Travolta) board a Stealth bomber equipped with two nuclear missiles, they fly the Stealth over the Utah desert in what was supposed to be a routine mission to monitor radiation levels but Deakins tries to kill Hale in an attempt to steal the nuclear weapons. Hale manages to eject from the Stealth before Deakins kills him, Deakins then drops the unarmed bombs & ejects himself leaving the plane to crash. Having witnessed the crash park ranger Terry Carmichael (Samantha Mathis) goes to investigate & finds Hale, meanwhile Deakins has managed to trick the army into thinking the nuclear weapons have been breached & therefore rescue teams cannot be sent in. With easy access to the bombs he intends to bribe the Government into paying a ransom or he’ll use them to wipe out half of the country, that is unless Hale & the park ranger can stop him & his men…Directed by John Woo Broken Arrow was his second American action film after the fabulous Hard Target (1993), I personally rate Broken Arrow, & Hard Target for that matter, as one of my favourite over-the-top action flicks from the 90’s & for that I apologise to no-one. The script by Graham Yost is as action packed as they come, there’s loads of shoot-outs, fights, explosions, crashes, vehicular mayhem & near misses. Most people seem to think the basic story is pretty far fetched & I have to agree but it’s by no means sillier than a lot of 90’s action flicks like Speed (1994) for instance. What I like about it is that it moves along like a rocket & there isn’t enough time between all the fights & explosions for small things like plot holes to make any huge difference. I also liked the character’s here, the relationships between Hale & the sexy park ranger & between Hale & Deakins in particular, I just thought the character’s & the way they were written & developed were better than the average action flick with themes like friendship & betrayed. I liked it, a lot
Director Woo knows how to turn in a decent action flick & he doesn’t disappoint here, while the unmistakable style of his earlier Hong Kong films may have been slightly sterilised by Hollywood the set-pieces in his films still remain very impressive. Broken Arrow probably has more helicopters being blown up & crashing than any other single film I think I’ve ever seen. Some of the explosions are huge, the fights are varied & well staged & most of the action is done the good old fashioned way on set in camera with real stunt men & real explosions rather than awful CGI computer effects which have become commonplace. The only scene which really made me cringe was when Hale falls off the back of the truck & he then picks himself up, runs after it, catches it up & jumps on the back! I don’t think so, the truck itself had at least a 10 second head start before we even discuss how slow it would have to have been going for Hale to physically run after it & catch it up. The violence isn’t too excessive, there’s not much blood in it & the violence isn’t sadistic or gloating as in say a lot of Steven Seagal films
With a supposed budget of about $65,000,000 Broken Arrow is well made with that Hollywood polish about it, the special effects are good & there’s plenty of big bangs & explosions for the money. The acting is alright, I liked Travolta (who was apparently paid $7,000,000 for this) as the villain in particular but he does come across as a bit theatrical at times, I thought Mathis was fine as the love interest although I thought Slater was a bit bland & forgettable as the hero
Broken Arrow is a great action film, it has a good cast, great action scenes, loads of explosions, better than usual character’s & it moves along at a good pace. I thought it was great & it’s as simple & straight forward as that.
