No Retreat, No Surrender (1985)

Great movie from my childhood

[8/10 · 27 March 2024]

This movie brings back so many great memories of a simpler more laid-back time when it first came out. I was only 5 or 6 yrs old. I finally put it on again today with my 8 year old daughter and we were both right into it. The build up to the final scene is great and the catchy inspirational song at the end is the icing on the cake. One of my all time favourites!

Even though the acting could be better and it appears to filmed like a low budget movie, it still tells a good story with a good mix of drama, humour, action, romance, redemption and more. This is one of those movie where I'll definitely watch it again.

Dave Chappelle: The Closer (2021 TV Special)

Those who complain have nothing better to do

[10/10 · 30 October 2021]

Chappelle is a master, a real genius. ONE OF HIS BEST PERFORMANCES. This is Comedy at its finest. The world is on the craziest of paths these days and it's great to actually hear a voice amongst the madness that actually points it out honestly and hilariously.

The Closer is controversial because it's what the world needs to hear but arent prepared to hear it. Everyone has an opinion, addicted to all the shallow drama, and hooked on feeling offended by everything. Before the internet the world seemed like a better place. Is it getting worse?

Appreciate and enjoy comedy for what is. Just enjoy it and laugh your ass off. Life's to short.

Rage (1987– )

Shame The Music These Days Is So Crap

[6/10 · 18 June 2021]

Rage was so much better in the 80's and 90's even early 2000's, its such a shame that there's so much crap so called music being played these days.

They need to play more of the classics back when the world wasn't so talentless & simple.
