Haven’t seen that one, did see the remake which, although not boasting a particularly intricate plotline, was memorable enough.
As a consequence, many of the innocent bystanders immediately dropped to the floor and egg-spired, no doubt. 😛It’s easy to see what is wrong with Hollow Man, notably the wonky script and the implementation of Kevin…[Read more]

There was an incredible hype and promotional activity at the time of the original Star Wars film release. This mad it into a “crowd pleaser”, so fun for everyone really, however the urge to personally explore it further never did come to realization. The vollies from some critics rang clear and loud:
Star Wars is a junkyard of cinematic gimcracks…

Thanks for the heads up. 🙂
If ever you find yourself in that above-mentioned predicament of free fall flurry, feel free to holler and theme while you plummet and corkscrew, knowing full well there will not only be rapturous applause, but it will be accompanied by the keen realization it will be generated somewhere else, and for someone else most…[Read more] -

Unusual to see Liam Neeson in a comedy, does RT rate on casting, and could any of them be convinced to revise their score after a second viewing?
Only Lovers Left Alive didn’t work over here. The dull dialogue, empty characters and tawdry backdrops was all B-grade, the movie purported to be more than it was. It was one of those movies from which…[Read more] -

A LS & 2SB DVD was gifted by a family member for a birthday some time ago, probably ~2012. Replayed it later, in case something was missed. The earlier Lock, Stock and Barrel had nothing much in common other than the name, it does have Claude Akins however, ubiquitous in 50s, 60s and 70s movies and shows.

Pretty nifty if it charges up without a dock, but from the air alone, making it truly “wireless.” 😛

It may be able to choose in which direction to send out solar flares or coronal mass ejections.
