Cravenly exploitative and sporting a bad title, The Eagle mostly lays an egg. While it’s kinda worth watching for hard-bitten war movie guys, slumming history buffs should steer clear. As one of those stories that starts where the legend leaves off, the history is tripe. Fortunately the prod…

Two movies in one – the demented story of a badass junkie and the inspiring story of an avenging angel. Both are about the same guy, Sam Childers, an American biker who has saved and continues to save hundreds of otherwise doomed Sudanese kids. As a kickass movie about a real guy trying to stop…

This French film follows a tried-and-true theme: Tough military commandos make the big rescue. In this case the rescue of a very pretty French journalist who is inexplicably running around in Afghanistan only to be captured by a crazed Taliban leader. Films like this rarely have to have a stor… |

A movie that tries to make a political statement via fast paced war action infused with spy vs spy espionage thriller. While fun to watch and very entertaining to the war/action/thriller crowd, the story itself comes across a bit contrived for the setting. We all know that something is amiss in… |

Into the Valley of Death rode the 2nd Platoon of Battle Company, ultimately riding back out with their dignity, humanity and honor intact, a trial by firefight that this important documentary shows in vivid detail. Well, given the ferocity of the fighting, not all rode out. Killed early on was …

The heart of a battle-tank turns into a heart of darkness for four soldiers – softies – thrust into the horror of war. The obvious comparison to Das Boot captures Lebanon’s ironclad claustrophobia and blinkered view. Yet, Apocalypse Now seems more fitting an antecedent given how these unw…

One thing is for sure: There’s nothing tougher than a WWII South Pacific Jarhead. Spielberg and Hanks do an admirable job creating the Pacific version of ‘Band of Brothers’. The South Pacific version is much grittier and gut-wrenchingly raw. As someone commented in the movie – those Ar… |

Slasher movies have nothing on this swordplay spectacular. Heads and arms are so much meat for the blade, lopped off right and left, as a group of Roman soldiers battles back from behind enemy lines. So what’s to recommend it? A visually rich portrayal of the Roman army in early Britannia, t…

Tremendously entertaining and TFB1, this über-ironic masterpiece proves that Tarantino remains a supremely accomplished auteur and that Brad Pitt has reached a superstar plateau occupied by few others. LOL funny, hugely charismatic and deeply thought provoking, Inglorious Basterds enters the…
