The Lone Ranger Movie
“The Lone Ranger” is more than just a western. It delicately combines the ironic take on the genre and the homage to the similar European and American classics. To me “The Lone Ranger” is something like “Pirates of the Caribbean”, but in the Wild West. Here, in contrast with …
Live Free or Die Hard

The Duke Is Tops movie
From 1938, The Duke Is Tops is a film that features an all black cast, and what I like about it is that race isn’t really a part of this picture. This movie could have had any cast. These performers talked normally, performed normally, and just acted …
Axe (Movie)
The movie catches the common viewer’s attention rather quickly. I’m someone who has a hard time getting into movies which don’t take off quickly.. and this movie is a classic example of the complete opposite.

Vacancy

Split (2017 Psychological Thriller Film)
