while waiting for the next blockbuster, 2 watchable movies here:
american assassin is an action "terrorist" thriller.

while it has its bits of good action, it is rather weak overall.

stars dylan o'brien (maze runner), michael keaton, taylor kitsch (battleship). 2.5/5.

hangman is a serial killer crime thriller.

this movie reminded me a lot of se7en 1995 (brad pitt, morgan freeman, kevin spacey).

stars al pacino (he is getting old! biggrin.gif ), karl urban (mccoy of star trek) and sarah shahi (person of interest). 2.5/5.

kingsman the golden circle is worth a watch.

i like it more than the first one.

it is a "james bond+johnny english" kind of action comedy.

u get the original guys like colin firth, mark strong... plus julian moore, pedro pascal, halle berry... and elton john! rclxms.gif

seems everyone wants to to be in it, like star wars.

great action, good humor. 3/5.

I thought the previous one was way better. The whole golden circle tattoo on the skin kinda illogical. Using Mr Pecker for Galahad to get his memory back was weak on the script writing part.

I can only grabbed the one with DTS and PQ was ok, 2/5 from me even they tried so hard to include many A list american actor/ess inside this franchise.

2 each his own,,,i still enjoy the movie 4 what it is as with no nitpicking

QUOTE(AVFAN @ Dec 5 2017, 02:33 AM)
the foreigner is quite a good thriller.

it has the usual packing's of a fine action thriller but is somewhat stale compared given the newer terrorism type movies around.

in addition, this "terror" is about the IRA which is more applicable in the 80's and 90's.

jackie chan still does his brand of nimble actions in melee combat while pierce brosnan is still has his "bond" character.

based on a 1992 novel, 3/5.

Dunkirk(2017)
Director- Christopher Nolan
Writer- Christopher Nolan
Stars- Fionn Whitehead, Barry Keoghan, Mark Rylance

This is the director of the Dark Knight trilogy,
sci-fi thriller Inception and space adventure Interstellar.
And he always distinguished himself as a "visionary"
filmmaker and an intellectual storyteller.

Speaking to ABC News, Nolan said,
"Dunkirk is not a war film. It's a survival story"
And went on to discuss his reasons for focusing
on the characters themselves rather than the war elements.

There are very few Hollywood film-makers who could
have made Dunkirk because not many cinemagoing public
is not going to see war film about the evacuation of
330,000 British and Allied forces who had driven
practically out to sea.Got trapped in the harbor and
on the beaches of Dunkirk, France in 1940 after they
became surrounded by the German army.

And Christoper Nolan is one of the few directors
who manages to make that happen because his movies
make lot of money at the box office.

Movies of this kind normally come out in November-December.
The entire industry do not understand when Dunkirk open
in July summer weekend together with the $180 million,
"Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets".(which is
one of the 2017 movie bombs, worldwide made only
about 35% of the targeted goal)
People think executives at Warner Bros want to make Nolan happy
because he wanted it. Imagines how powerful this man is.

Caught it again for the 2nd time, wonderful filmmaking
and a true cinematic achievement.
For me,"Best Film of the Year So Far".

A far cry in subject matter from The Dark Knight or Interstellar.

i would call dunkirk 2107 a war suspense drama.

little dialogue, some action but not the kind of war action you see in saving private ryan or black hawk down.

it is about churchill's call to 300,000 british soldiers trapped in france to live to fight another day in 1940.

not much focus on any particular actor... stars tom hardy, james darcy, kenneth branagh, cillian murphy with a few lines voiced by michael caine.

it is a good movie with excellent cinematography and screenplay by christopher nolan, particularly the aerial shots of spitfires vs stukas.

will probably win an oscar or two. 4/5.

wolf warrior 2 战狼2 is a much bigger sequel to the original wolf warrior 战狼.

it is now the highest grossing chinese and highest grossing non-hollywood movie of all time.

this movie has everything for a commercial success action thriller - bloodful coup, mercenaries, an elite soldier, tanks, warship, missiles, rpg's, ak47's, combat drones... and a virus...!!

stars (and directed by) wu jing (spl, spl2, wolf warrior) and frank grillo (crossbones in captain america civil war).

wu jing has said he will make a 3rd episode. 4/5.

Princess Cyd (2017)
Writer-Director: Stephen Cone
Stars: Rebecca Spence, Jessie Pinnick, Malic White.

The film’s opening, a 911 call reporting a murder-suicide that
left our protagonist motherless and brotherless at age 8.
Cyd (Jessie Pinnick) is 16 when we meet her, having been
sent off for a few summer weeks to live with her aunt
Miranda(Rebecca Spence)in Chicago.
They haven’t seen each other since Cyd lost her mother.

Miranda, living unmarried and childless live in the house she grew up
in with Cyd’s mother.She is a celebrated novelist and academic
with an active religious life.

This is a film that believes finding joy in each other.
It captures one deeply significant thing, that moment
when family members transform from strangers to loved ones.
Two people learning things from one another, as both
negotiate a relationship around differences of age, ideology,
and experience.

Rebecca Spence delivers one of the most beautiful monologues.
Her character is simply frustrated, a little hurt but she's
speaking from her heart.
She's not trying to make Cyd feel bad or even get an apology from her.
She just wants their relationship to be one based on love and
mutual respect.
In moments like this, Princess Cyd is a magical film.

bad genius is a good thai heist thriller.

inspired by incidents of leakages in the worldwide SAT exam, it is about high school students cheating in exams.

interesting enough to keep you watching but the ending... hmm... i guess it need to conform to the required morals.

audio is in thai, so you need english or chinese subs, whichever is applicable.

3.5/5.

i didn't watch the first one, did not expect much.... but...

beyond skyline (sequel to skyline) is not bad at all!

syfy... alien invasion, badass aliens, action full, never a dull moment.

this alien movie is refreshing, fast paced, highly watchable.

stars frank grillo, iko uwais, yayan ruhian.

yes, the guys from raid redemption are still doing their kicks and punches besides knives and guns!

3.5/5.
