Precious Cargo (Review)

Posted on January 6, 2017 by OGR

I watched this only for Bruce Willis. Bruce is Marcellus Wallace now. An older gentleman who directs others, remaining removed from the hurly burly. In this dire effort Bruce is Eddie, a crime boss keeping a couple wet behind the … Continue reading →

Perfect Stranger (Review)

Posted on October 18, 2016 by OGR

They could churn one of these whodunnit films in a week, and it looks like the makers of Perfect Stranger did exactly that. They probably could have taken the weekend off too… Bruce Willis doesn’t seem to open his eyes … Continue reading →

Blind Date (Review)

Posted on September 21, 2015 by OGR

Blind Date is as ill thought out as the titular date that accounts for well over half the running time. Needing a date for a big work do, over-worked accountant Walter (Bruce Willis) takes a recommendation for a blind date … Continue reading →

Striking Distance (Review)

Posted on April 23, 2015 by OGR

In the 90s Bruce Willis was Nicolas Cage with a better agent. He seemed to say ‘yes’ to every script offered, but unlike Cage the bombs weren’t as egregious and career threatening. Of course it helped that about every four … Continue reading →

Expendables 3 (Review)

Posted on March 13, 2015 by OGR

I’m amazed that this ‘dead cat bounce’ is now in the third edition. On this occasion the Expendables – still fronted by Sly’s Barney Ross – run into two more men involved at the genesis of the crew. One Dr … Continue reading →

The Bonfire of the Vanities (Review)

Posted on March 9, 2015 by OGR

You know how the biggest authors are treated like rockstars? Constant coverage in the tabloids, fawning from those in the know, shameless flirting from normally demure and classy women, and adulation from all? Me neither. Regardless of reality, Peter Fallow (Bruce … Continue reading →

Four Rooms (Review)

Posted on February 9, 2015 by OGR

  One would think that New Year’s Eve might not be the ideal first day on the job, especially in a hotel chock full of zany characters. Nonetheless that is what confronts Ted the bellhop (Tim Roth) at his new … Continue reading →

Tears of the Sun (Review)

Posted on March 11, 2014 by OGR

Bruce switches to ‘award mode’ with Tears of the Sun, though he still gets to kill an awful lot of bad guys in between maintaining a square jaw and a dispassionate demeanour. That’s two birds… As Lieutenant Waters, Bruce leads … Continue reading →

Red 2 (Review)

Posted on January 10, 2014 by OGR

It was a long, long while ago, but I think that the first time a film introduced the concept of a ‘rapping white granny’ it was probably hilarious. Probably so unexpected and probably so unlikely and inconceivable to polite society, … Continue reading →

Twelve Monkeys (Review)

Posted on October 28, 2013 by OGR

Twelve Monkeys was the arrival of Bruce ‘the Actor’ Willis and Brad ‘the Mega-Star’ Pitt. It is also a supremely confident non-commercial film that somehow managed to slip one past the keeper and find itself in the mainstream despite its … Continue reading →
