WATCH NOW I will admit I have missed this action film in the past, however, Blood and Bone is one of those films I would never forget missing. Not because of how bad the movie is but because it is an incredible action film. The fighting scenes in this movie are exceptional, so much so […]

WATCH NOW The film begins with a key point – the uneasy peace between the church and state in Poland. So far, everyone manages to get through the civil wedding relatively unscathed. However, the church wedding (the ‘real wedding’ as some sideline) the next day has been a complete catastrophe. It’s like the wedding scene

WATCH NOW “Land of the Lost” is a truly outlandish film. It’s not necessarily an insult because some of its earlier critics regard it as a hanging offense (as Peter Keough of the Boston Phoenix put it, “a pot of ersatz dinosaur piss). “Land of the Lost” sparks intense loathing, which, in the case of

WATCH NOW The Timber wanted very much to be something more, something meaningful, something timeless. The foundations are there, but it does not get to the heights it could or would like to. The film is directed by Anthony O’Brien and has James Ransone, Elisa Lasowski, Mark Caven, William Gaunt, David Bailie, and Josh Peck
WATCH NOW I don’t know how familiar you are with the Double Dragon video games but, trust me when I say this, the storylines were far from rich. They featured two brothers who ran from left to right while throwing punches and kicks, and that’s pretty much it. Having said that, I can only imagine

WATCH NOW Some people argue that martial arts movies are violent. A good number of them are, but the best ones have the same relationship to violence as romance has to Astaire and Rogers: no one takes it seriously, but it does allow for some exceptional choreography. There’s a comedy that operates under the surface

WATCH NOW Alright, it’s understandable that many of you have kind of moved away from the Marvel Cinematic Universe after 15 years. I get it. Some of you might be excited for a time when there aren’t as many comic book films. That is reasonable. Can I show you Indonesia’s answer to the MCU before

WATCH NOW LIONHEART is Van Damme around 1991, and the best up to that time if you ask me, which by reading this you shall. The thing is, personal competitive fighting preferences differ, and in my opinion, pre-packaged street brawls are the most dull action subgenres. There is little space for chase scenes and explosions;
WATCH NOW Schwarzenegger was this man’s bizarre obsession and God bless him for it. Cameron also directed a little devoted submarine flick called The Abyss, which, surprisingly enough, bombed in the box office but later became a cult classic – though it remains incredibly hard to find people who actually watched. In any case, I
WATCH NOW The stuffed animals known as The Care Bears first made their debut in 1982 by the company Kenner – the same company who manufactured The Real Ghostbusters and the Star Wars toys. Kenner was purchased by Hasbro back in 2000, and now Hasbro holds the license for The Care Bears (sometimes I do
