A Vigilante (2018)

They drop the ball on this one...

[5/10 · 2 April 2019]

To start off with, I'm against any type of domestic violence from either male or female, both are as bad as each other and both deserve what ever they get in return... That being said, this movie is so unrealistic and has so many holes in it... Like its been said in other reviews, the storyline moves at a snail pace and there is no timeline and it keeps going back and forth without any indication of where its at... If she could over power these men that she didn't know, why couldn't she do the same with her husband and I mean in the movie not when she was still living with him... How could she possibly over power him with a broken arm, as it conveniently cuts from the start of that scene and then goes to when she is choking him on the ground...? Also how in the hell did she get all his clothes off and drag him to the car/ ute and lift him in and out when she dumped him on a back street with like I said a broken arm...?

This movie could have been so good and also give people going through this the courage to get out and find help or at the least help themselves, but its so unrealistic I think it would discourage any of that...

Crap movie, don't waste your time...

Hands of Stone (2016)

Great story, but only a good movie...

[7/10 · 6 November 2016]

Durans biography is a great story and for the most part is a good movie, but it could of been so much better, one of the greats even...

And it all comes down to the directing... The movie is hard to connect with in the first 20 minutes and the voice audio is somewhat drowned out by the background audio, which obviously doesn't help in that regard either...

It does slowly start getting better and a lot more engaging...

The biggest downfall is the fights unfortunately, which is meant to be the best part of a fight movie, the camera is zoomed in that close you can't really tell whats going on half the time...?

Honestly how can anyone think its good to film fight scenes like that is beyond me...

Special Forces (2011)

Honestly, One Of The Best Action Movies I Have Seen In A Long Time!

Firstly, this is my first review ever...

I'm not going to tell you what happens in the movie at all, as that irritates me when that is someone's review...Why do people do that?

I watched this movie thinking it might be OK...

The movie is engrossing right from the start and I think it was about a third of the way through when I thought to myself, this is going to be a great movie and it definitely did not disappoint me, right up to the very end!

To me it could believably be a true story, as the realism and emotional journey of this story is breath taking!

This movie gets a 10/ 10 from me and a "10" is definitely rare to be given by me!

I hope you enjoy it as much I did...
