OMG, saw this some months ago...

You'll notice Bruce has really started to dial-it-in with his last few movies, he's looking like he is going through the motions.
Bad news Jo - Brucey baby has dialed-it-in again with "Out of Death".
He plays a cop on leave [I shit you not...], who stumbles across other crooked cops. Edge of your seat innovative plotline here folks...
I suspect the casting director hired the other actors straight out of drama school, because they are as green and wooden as the forest the "action" scenes are set in.
It's like watching a train wreck; you don't wanna, but can't help yourself.
Then grab the aerosol spray, and deodorise your loungeroom after this dog stinks it out..

According to IMDB, Bruce had to shoot all his scenes in one day.
Must have had to be elsewhere the next day, being inundated with film offers and the like... :o

First time I watched Birds of Prey, the harley Quinn spin off, I thought it sucked.

A few online comments later and seeing it available on Foxtel last night, I went WTF and gave it a go.

OK, so it didn't suck 2nd time around. It wasn't as bad as I remembered which may have been due to expectations, I dunno. It was actually half decent and I enjoyed it.

A little unbelievable? :shock:

Almost all of those movies are impossible without green screen and special effects, not to mention the plots. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :wink:

I thought I'd sit down and start watch the series thinking that I must be missing something if they are up to F9. I have seen the first and liked it.

So, away we went:
2F2F - awful - couldn't watch more than the first 40 minutes. Oh I tried, Oh my god did I try.......but it sucks ass
Tokyo Drift - got about 20 minutes in - what a shitfest

So went to Fast & Furious thinking bringing back Dom would make all the difference - wrong. What a mess of a movie. The opening scene started OK until the flat bed truck was chucked in reverse and, I swear, changed up gears in reverse.

and that was it.

I have a hardcore arthouse film friend who is really into the Fast and the Furious movies. All I can say is, each to their own!

tokyo drift sucked balls and should not be included in the series - especially after watching 9, because, well i wont spoil the "plot' but now it makes no sense!!

I like them because they are just a good romp, take of a few shirts, great bodies, a couple of sexy Latino women, brilliant movie and dancing, (i just love Miami, amazing vibe!!) as with the die hard and expendables series, there is usually a little side humour, just a couple of hours to drift from reality!!

and did i mention the 6 packs??!!

next up if we dont lock down is the Hitmans wife bodyguard, i love the first one, and the lead reminds me of Swanny!! there is a new theatre in altona north that apparently has recliners without the gold class tag! got to give it a go!!

Her lips in 9 ruin her beautiful face! She is worth watching though, love letty, she’s all balls!

6 has the tank scene, it’s brilliant!

You have to make it to 7, even though Paul Walker died hooning, which pisses me off no end, I cried buckets watching it, lucky it was gold class, cos I literally sobbed! It’s handled really well!

8 is Hobbs and Shaw and I really love that one!

That's a good movie.

Love it when a piece of 4x2 (or two by four) becomes the chosen weapon in an action shooter.

Well, I watched Black Widow under duress and all I can say is Scarlett Johansson is nice to look at. As for the rest … could have done with fewer explosions and martial arts and more shots of exotic locales. Going to need to watch a few more arty movies where nothing happens in order to fully recover!

I watched all of Fast 5

Bringing in the Rock helped and also having Joaquim de Almeida. He makes a bad-ass bad guy.

Gal Gadot's character was a bit shit.

The last F&F movie I watched was the one with the Rock and Jason Statham in it.

As far as Tokyo Drift goes, it's ahead of it's time. Movies that suck balls are the future of VR Porn. :P :wink: 8)
