    I do wait around at traffic lights waiting for accidents.

    We have a special set of lights for you around here. You would probably see two crashes (they aren't really accidents as the council has basically planned them) in the time it took to watch the movie.

    @Catogrande said in Re: Movie review thread...:

    I am vengeance: retaliation.

    What can I say? No discernible plot. Shit writing. A cast that cannot act. Ridiculous fight choreography. Execrable dialogue.

    This is a must see.

    1 moment of entertainment out of 129 wasted minutes of my life. Well 20 really as I lacked the fortitude to see it through.

    This intrigued me.
    So, I went and watched "I Am Vengeance". Typical C-grade action movie with a WWE-rasslin' star as the lead "actor". And the worst/blandest rassler at that. Acting, and movie - bland, forgettable, rubbish. Zero tits.
    And then - I doubled down with the redundantly named "Retribution" sequel. I mean - what the fuck? Having Vengeance and Retribution in the title... just sums up what to expect.
    @Catogrande - I'm assuming you watched the first 20 minutes? Believe it or not - you actually saw the best part of this movie. The last hour, just gets worse, and worse, and worse. But - I'm a fuckin' trooper, and saw it through. And can confirm, that once again, zero tits.

    "I Am Vengeance

    when I saw that title I thought it was one of the recent NIcholas Cage take any script films...

    Are a few actors now who you see thier name as the lead on so many at the moment...seems to be a bit of a scatter gun appraoch, take on as many projects, one is bound to be good (Cage, TRavolta, Willis, Stoltz)

    Better hope Liam Neeson doesn’t read this and get triggered you haven’t mentioned him.

    It’s kinda sad ( if you can feel sorry for famous multi millionaires ) that these guys ( all of whom have made some brilliant movies in the past ) feel the need to resort to dialling in performances in flicks that you just know are gonna be utter shit without even seeing them.

    @mariner4life don't worry, you've probably caught far to much UV so Snowy would despair of getting a high quality hide off you... or is it pelt? Skin suit?

    And yet, I know I would do EXACTLY that if I was one of then. Earn a few million bucks for 2 months work? Sign me the fuck up!

    Have you seen the trailer for Neeson's next action-blockbuster classic?
    Fuck, it looks good. (insert sarcasm emoji or gif or meme or whatever the fuck you nerd fluffybunnies need to convey nuance nowadays)
    I think it's called Honest Thief? Or something like that.
    Could easily be named "Taken 5" - and I should know, having just watched Taken 1-3 over the last two days.

    The admission to a Taken binge-watch reminds me... I don't think I ever shared this little bit of life-achievement with you fluffybunnies. Instead of re-writing, I'll just copy-paste from my publication to family and friends on faecebook...

    The word "hero" is bandied about a lot, rather cheapened in my opinion, nowadays.
    But... for your consideration... I just watched all 6 "Tremors" movies, in 7 days.
    Just saying.

    @Kruse after the joy that Taken 1 was (and I agree i shouldn't have had to type that "1" there), I'm prepared to allow him at least 10 shitty movies afterwards

    Taken isn’t as good as people say it is.

    It doesn’t justify the litany of shit he’s subsequently bombarded us with that’s for sure

    It’s definitely entertaining in one sense and Neeson obviously has the immortal lines....but the movie as an absolute whole ? Overrated.

    I think a bunch of them actually need the money after divorce, bad investment and not handing over the government's share.

    @MN5 if you don't like the first Taken, walk over broken glass to avoid the sequels. I think it was Taken 3 where I looked at Liam and thought, give it up son, you look like your special skills are guiding a zimmer frame.

    @Tim that Total Recall poster is fantastic! Especially the Frankenstein take of Arnie's forehead!

    Fuck off its not. This might be the dumbest thing you've ever posted here. And that's a deep field.
