In defense of… Sylvester ‘Sly’ Stallone
For over four decades almost every Sylvester Stallone film has been derided by generations of critics, precious few having anywhere near the longevity that Sly himself can claim. Some of this lambasting is warranted (Stop of my Mom will shoot!?!), … Continue reading
(Escape to) Victory (Review)
Apparently landing in a WW2 Prisoner of War (POW) camp was not a good development. In the 80s film Victory though I get the (mistaken) impression that things could turn out much worse. The basic premise of the film is … Continue reading

Judge Dredd (Review)
The setting of Judge Dredd is so formulaic and repetitive that I should save it to autotext: In a dystopian future where everyone has moved to the already over-populated cities, crime is rife and law enforcement practically non-existent… Into this … Continue reading

The Specialist (Review)
Perhaps by the mid 90s Stallone was a little concerned with being typecast as ‘the slightly dopey sounding muscle-head who shoots people really dead’. So with The Specialist he takes a dramatic career turn, here ‘he blows people up really … Continue reading

Daylight (Review)

First Blood: Rambo Quadrilogy Review

Cobra (Review)
Ay-Yo Adrian… I mean hi there ladies. My name is Lieutenant Marion Cobretti, but everyone just calls me ‘Cobra’. I even have a picture of a cobra on the hilt of my handgun that always juts out of my waistband … Continue reading

Over the Top (Review)
Sometimes there is nothing better than kicking back with a good book. When pressed for time sneaking an episode of Family Guy or Tosh.0 provides some chuckles. Other times a good drama with a solid story, quality acting and a … Continue reading
