The Ringer (2005)
Vastly underrated. Hilarious with lots of heart
Not much to say except watch it. Hilarious and heart warming. It would do everyone good to watch this movie once.
Rise of the Footsoldier (2007)
Good but not great British gangster flick
Simple review. It's an interesting story, well told with plenty of violence ( goes overboard at times). The main issue I found was the acting, the actor Playing main character Carlton Leach is very poor and just not believable as a cocky hard man. He has an Over the top swagger in his walk and a constant scowl on his face. A better choice for the main role would have helped this movie massively. But Overall worth a watch.
Scarface (1983)
Nothing special
This movie definitely does not live up to the hype it received over the last 30 years. It's average, the storyline is very clichéd and is very poorly acted at times.
People put scarface in the same category as the godfather and goodfellas. But to me it shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath. Goodfellas is a true masterpiece.
Overall, it's worth watching but don't get your hopes up!
Semi-Pro (2008)
Far better than its rating!
If you are a will ferrel fan you'll throughly enjoy this. Much better than a lot of his movies. It's obviously as ridiculous as you'd expect from ferrel but there's lots of laughs spread out the whole movie and some very quotable classic one liners.
El hoyo (2019)
Very interesting premise
Overall a good film. While watching the dubbed version it's hard to grasp the emotions of the characters so the acting does fall very flat. But the idea of the movie is very interesting and really makes you think of society as a whole. It's well executed on a small budget. Definitely worth a watch
Sons of Anarchy (2008)
Entertaining but ridiculous.
This show is easy watching when you want to unwind after a long day. It's entertaining with plenty of action and intertwining story lines but it has some major issues...
Awful acting, over the top stereotypes and ridiculous storylines. The gang somehow manage to get mixed up with every possible bad guy in the whole USA and Ireland along with several different divisions of police force and yet they always come out unscathed. There must be a hundred shootouts / explosions throughout the entire series yet our hero jax never gets more than a scratch on his pretty face.
You'll probably enjoy the show if you don't take it very seriously. Just accept the ridiculousness of it all and cheer on the bad guys with hearts of gold.
Eastbound & Down (2009)
Underrated hilarity
This is one of the greatest comedies ever. It didn't get the love it deserves when it was released. It's still brilliant 10 years later. The first two seasons are absolutely phenomenal, it loses its way for season three but then recovers. A classic overall
Horizon Zero Dawn (2017)
Boring. We've seen it 100 times before
Slow story with awful voice acting, poor combat mechanics and extremely repetitive missions. Also it's a pain to constantly have to do boring side quests in order to gain xp just to continue on the story. If you like a fantasy RPG you might like it. But this format has been done to death.
Enough (2002)
Absolutely awful!
Possibly one of the worst movies I've ever managed to finish. Horrendous acting, plot holes and even a ridiculous "rocky" training montage thrown into the middle of the movie. Please don't waste 2 hours of your precious life watching this tripe.
