The War Against Islamist Terror gets short shrift in the nearly risible American Assassin, which starts well, powerfully well, but then goes mostly downhill. Quality aside: Sequel or No Sequel? That is the question. This origin story sets a low bar, yet made money, so why not a sequel. It’ll al…

One needn’t be familiar with Blade Runner minutiae to find Blade Runner 2049 gripping from the start, thought provoking by the middle and shattering at the end. Yep, this terrific sci-fi sequel works for newbies. Thus, it’s not just an aficionado’s treat. It’s meat for the masses. Somehow th…

A decent action/conspiracy film features Gerard Butler as a “Climate MacGyver” who not only is an eco-fixer, but does a respectable job at putting bad guys in their place. Ignore the subtle leftist positions, and the movie is enjoyable. |

Some seriously good acting makes Triple 9 thoroughly enjoyable; The Casey Affleck and Anthony Mackie led bad cops are caught in a trap by the estrogen-fed meanness of Kate Winslet and Gal Gadot and chased by an unabashedly grizzled Woody Harrelson. This movie has all the great action and intens… |

London Has Fallen is a distinct improvement over Olympus Has Fallen, making it a 1st-rate action movie. The sequel improves the original by having a plausible villain, albeit amidst an equally implausible story. Throw in several well-earned laughs – amid the carnage – and you’ve got a helluva…
