Polar - Mads Mikkelsen, Kathryn Winnick and Vanessa Hudgens
I liked it, bit of fun and unbelievable gun fights in the John Wick realms...Mads is pretty cool in it.
3 hundred kills out of 5 hot shags
That is a cool film. Some great nudity as well.
Hopes up
@taniwharugby said in Re: Movie review thread...:
@Nepia neither of those 2 are shagged in the film...but the ones that are, are still hot.
In fact, Hudgens is barely recognizable!
I never got into high school musical so didn't really know what she looked like. But I was watching some Jules Verne movie with CF jnr featuring the Rock and Vanessa Hudgens. She looked hawt

He takes a beat up checkbook off the dash and flips it to
Johnny.
Utah opens the cover and looks.
Sure enough. Assured Trust Savings and Loan.BODHI
I was picking up some bucks cause
we're leaving town. Bizarre, huh?
If I'd waited a day I'd been right
in the middle of it. Kinda sorry I
missed it. I'd liked to've seen
them.A long pregnant pause. Utah breathes deeply, remaining
calm, his voice carrying a chilling bravado.UTAH
Takes guts to rob a bank. All that
adrenalin pumping, waving loaded
guns, taking out the guards, getting
everybody on the floor, never
knowin' who's gonna burst in...
(looks right at
Bodhi)
... wondering what it's like to take
a bullet. Must be some ride.Utah's smile is a personal challenge. Bodhi sits
perversely intrigued. The mental warfare escalates.BODHI
Banks are insured, brah. Long as
nobody gets shot, it's really a
victimless crime. Just gotta scare
'em a little, would be my guess.
(ponders something)
Now if I was gonna rob a bank, with
all those guys wearin' body armor
these days, know what I'd carry?Bodhi reaches his hand underneath the seat.
He pulls out a huge holstered handgun, rests it in his
lap, draws and holds the gun up against his cheek.BODHI
.454 Casull. Most powerful handgun
on the planet. Muzzle velocity of
2000 feet per second. Twice the
kinetic energy of a .44 Magnum.Bodhi stares at Utah, then flashes his signature smile.
Utah says coldly.UTAH
One shot stopping.BODHI
(laughs)
'One shot stopping'... good, very
good. I like you, Johnny. I like
you because you'll sacrifice
anything to win. I respect that.
It elevates you a little above the
drones who have learned compromise.
Here, hold it. Check out the
weight.He twirls the gun, grabs the barrel and extends the handle
to Utah.
Johnny takes it slowly. Now it's aimed at Bodhi.BODHI
(cheerfully)
Whoa. Careful. You got the muzzle
pointing right at me, brah.He casually pushes the barrel away, looking back at the
highway.
Johnny swings a stiff arm out his window and pumps a ROUND
into open desert. KABOOOM!! The recoil blows Johnny's
arm back over the top of the truck. Practically breaks
his wrist.
Thunder rolls across the dark hills.
From the back of the pickup Nathaniel howls.
Grommet and Roach high five.Johnny turns to Bodhi, breaking slowly into a feral grin.
UTAH
Nice.He hands the smoking weapon back to him.
As if to say "two can play this game".
Bodhi stands challenged.
Each snared in the other's power...
Bodhi takes the weapon back, casually. Slips it under the
seat.BODHI
It's a special day, Johnny U. A
very special day...Utah's gaze travels beyond the windshield.
Where tentacles of brand new morning light vein the sky. -
Finding Steve McQueen
Forrest Whittaker, Travis Fimmel (aka Ragnar) Rachel Taylor is sexy in this too.
Inspired by true events, assume the main event is the robbery, rest is probably artistic licence.
Amusing light hearted movie, interesting seeing Fimmel in this role, plays a bit of a goofy type character, but though the was good, likely to be remove the type cast of Ragnar given he looks so different.
3.5 nights robbing a bank out of 5 BBQs with the local sheriff while you are a wanted fugitive

Enjoyed the first two as a teenager...

Watched "Masters of the Universe" with the kids last night. They fucking loved it!! It's not as bad as i remember actually. Of course the effects don't stand up, which really hampers an sci fi/fantasy movie. But it's a lot of fun, in a bad but good way.
3 Japanese Synthesisors out of 5 laser deflecting swords
Then i watched a movie i've wanted to see for a while, "Goon". Sean William Scott is a dumb bloke who can fight so gets recruited for hockey. and fights. But also teaches his team about heart and teamwork. I do love a stupid sports movie, and this one fits the bill nicely. Plenty of heart, pretty funny at times, and Scott's nice-but-dim hard man character is great.
4 straight rights out of 5 you make me want to not fuck a bunch of guys
Why doesn't Sean William Scott get work any more? He's funny and likeable.

My kids absolutely love these films (as do I) but I'm not sure how they can make this work. Very skeptical.

Isn't he in the Lethal Weapon TV series? And, he recently made a sequel to Goon.

Read a lot of stories how normal his life is. Rides the subway a lot, gives most of his money away as well.

firstly, there is a Lethal Weapon TV show? And also yes, he is in that. His IMDB page is pretty sparse from 2013 onwards though.

I haven't seen it, just remember reading an article about him being on it.
Not sure why he wasn't getting cast in between.

It's OK, good fodder when I'm on the treadmill. Damon Wayans plays Murtagh
