Coss Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Hostiles (2017) IMDb says: In 1892, a legendary Army captain reluctantly agrees to escort a Cheyenne chief and his family through dangerous territory. Well he didn't actually agree, but I digress. - whilst this is a movie showing that the two enemies can become friends - heartwarming - it's also very good for the depictions of how f*cking violent and hostile the American country once was. Rosamund Pike is very good. Well worth a watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coss Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 Into the Abyss (2011) - Conversations with death row inmate Michael Perry and those affected by his crime serve as an examination of why people - and the state - kill. Director: Werner Herzog I learnt a lot about 'merica Well worth a watch. And from the movie, Hostiles - a quote - "The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted.†D.H. Lawrence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coss Posted June 4, 2018 Report Share Posted June 4, 2018 Black Water (2018) - Jean-Claude Van Damme, Dolph Lundgren, Courtney B Turk, Jasmine Waltz. Jean-Claude is old, complete with dyed chestnut brown hair so popular with olden men. and plastic surgery that still doesn't make him handsome. But, this is a good movie, lotsa gun play, very little kung fu, in fact, only guns and knives. But for the premise, (black site in a sub under the water), this is prolly the best Van Damme movie I've seen. Worth a watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
