"I smell sex and candy here" - Marcy Playground
13 Hours (2016)
+



Felt like an honest and realistic attempt at telling a true war story. This movie didn't feel like an excessively grand or ambitious attempt to focus solely on the American heroes, in that typical Hollywood action style. It came across as real. It's long, but doesn't feel long because there is always something interesting going on. The relatively unknown cast suited my tastes well. There are quite a few tense moments and tense situations. I don't know how these guys stayed so cool, with so many unknowns surrounding them, including who is friendly and who is not. Tough situation to be in, especially when the CIA bureaucrats weren't so friendly or helpful, just full of attitude.

I see a lot of bad reviews, and yet, I still liked it. Here is one I share...

13 Hours review: 'fiendishly effective'
Michael Bay's overblown machismo may make liberal stomachs churn, but his true-life Libyan shoot-'em-up is maddeningly effective

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows
Nonsensical at times, but hey, the basis is about TURTLES for f@ck sake - so that singular complaint it pretty nonsensical in itself, so. . .




Swordfish
++ Unabashedly over the top in every form and fashion, I have been hesitant to see this and finally broke down and, *****, I gotta tell ya, I actually enjoyed it.

I am definitely underrating this movie, and would highly recommend it to fans of rom-coms. A scammer (a fantastic Barbara Stanwyck) targets a man with money (Henry Fonda), and of course they fall in love. The comedy is decent and never gets silly, but I preferred it for the romantic story.

I can't believe I never made an effort to watch this before. This is a quality B-movie. It delivers exactly what it promises, plus a whole lot more. Some bad acting, some good acting, awesome clowns and a lot of fun. The negatives would be a lack of nudity and no R rating, which I would normally expect from this sort of flick. It was still worth checking out.

My sister claims that's the scariest movie she's ever seen.

I'm a fan of David Cronenberg, although I didn't like his first movie, Shivers. I think that's why it took me so long to see this, his second movie. No need to explain the plot. It's got that perfect 70's look that I love, as well as some fine unintentional humor and a good musical score. It's a fun movie, but also has a touch of a tragic human element like the director's brilliant The Fly. Legendary porn star Marilyn Chambers does a fine job in the lead role.
