The Commuter *** (2018, Liam Neeson, Vera Farmiga, Patrick Wilson, Sam Neill, Elizabeth McGovern, Jonathan Banks) – Movie Review
Liam Neeson is in his element in director Jaume Collet-Serra’s good old-style fun mystery crime thriller flick along Murder on the Orient Express lines, but with some added high-octane action, plus a slick production. I’m […]
The Magnificent Seven ** (2016, Denzel Washington, Chris Pratt, Ethan Hawke, Vincent D’Onofrio, Peter Sarsgaard, Haley Bennett) – Movie Review
Denzel Washington and Vincent D’Onofrio give outstandingly strong performances in director Antoine Fuqua’s sturdy and sometimes impressive remake of the classic 1960 Western, The Magnificent Seven. However, Peter Sarsgaard is a lot less convincing in […]

Léon *** [Léon: The Professional] (1994, Jean Reno, Natalie Portman, Gary Oldman, Danny Aiello) – Classic Movie Review 1244
This slick but reprehensible 1994 English-language French urban neo noir thriller is directed with knowing flash that is all surface and no depth by co-producer/ writer/ director Luc Besson. His story about an illiterate mob […]
Training Day ***½ (2001, Denzel Washington, Ethan Hawke, Scott Glenn, Harris Yulin, Cliff Curtis, Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg, Macy Gray, Eva Mendes) – Classic Film Review 970
Director Antoine Fuqua’s tough, well-made but depressing 2001 LA police thriller stars Ethan Hawke and Denzel Washington, who land a couple of really showy roles as good cop, bad cop. They are rookie Jake Hoyt and seasoned Detective […]
Non-Stop *** (2014, Liam Neeson, Julianne Moore, Scoot McNairy) – Movie Review
Liam Neeson stars as Bill Marks, a troubled, hard-drinking US air marshal who boards a transatlantic flight and soon gets a series of text messages from an unknown fellow passenger that other passengers will be killed one by […]
