A Bridge Too Far
|
Fire at Will!
– with 7 Trust Points – rated it
Good
A fact-based retelling of Operation Market Garden, Richard Attenborough’s star-studded film suffers from its multiplicity of famous actors, and reminded this reviewer a little too much of Malick’s “Thin Red Line” (except Attenborough’s view of war does not match dead soldiers with injured birds)….

Hart's War

Wick
– with 66 Trust Points – rated it
Very Good
POW movies – especially WWII POW movies – are an esteemed genus of the War movie family, and Hart’s War adds proudly to the trove. Upstanding story, well and directly told, complete with workmanlike movie star performance by Old Block Head himself, Bruce Willis.

Wick
– with 66 Trust Points – rated it
Good
Given the dismal state of Islamist terror movies, this surprisingly evenhanded thriller tops the heap, though its disjointed plot comes together slowly and Leonardo DiCaprio’s CIA character lacks charisma. Fortunately he’s flanked by two great actors, the estimable Russell Crowe and the slickly …
