Tears Of The Sun---Bruce Willis, Cole Hauser and Monica Bellucci


It is always a chilling event when a democratic government disintegrates
because that is when the evil military dictators take control. They seize
what is left of the country and their rebel army will murder the citizens
and any missionaries left in the country. As they massacre and in some
cases they genocide many people of their own race. It does not matter

to them if it is women and children---because they are being paid to do a job.

When this happened in Nigeria the US Government sent in their best man to retrieve an American Dr. Lena Flore Kendrick (Monica Bellucci) who is with the “Doctors Without Borders” at a Catholic mission in a remote village deep in the jungle of Nigeria.

Navy SEAL Lieutenant A.K. Waters (Bruce Willis) Special Ops Commander and his elite squadron of tactical specialists travel through the jungle to retrieve and take the doctor to safety. This was their command and duty to follow orders to the letter. But they had never dealt with a stubborn woman doctor before.

Dr. Kendrick would not leave without the 70 villagers that would be left at the mercy of the rebel army. She insisted with they all went together or she would not leave. They were then taken on a death-defying trudge through the dense jungle of Nigeria to a safe haven at the border.

Waters and his men dodged the rebels who are tracked them from the village. This harden veteran and his men have chosen to ignore their command from the US government and are following their hearts in the rescue of the innocent villagers.

The Marine 3 Homefront Starring Mike 'The Miz' Mizanin



Sergeant Jake Carter (Mike “The Miz” Mizain) a Marine of the Special Ops has returned to his home town in a rural area---where most of the locals are just common folks---who live a simple life.

He is anxious to see his two sisters Lily and Amanda for some family time and fun together. Jake is home hoping to get lot of R&R as he just completed a tough clandestine assignment in Central America.  


What is most important to him is spending time with Lily (Ashley Bell) and Amanda (Camille Sullivan) his sweet precious sisters. And like all brothers he feels responsible for the sisters he loves so much and wants to see them every time his career permits.


Jake’s choice could’ve been any exotic place in the world for his rest and relax---but he wanted to go home to see his family. His heart still beats the loudest for his rural living and his small country town---where neighbors have your back---and everyone helps when needed.


All the sweetest and comfort of being home was like a fleeting moment---very short-lived. Lily and her boyfriend are in the wrong place at the very horrible wrong time. Lily saw something which ended in with Jonas Pope (Neal McDonough) is a radical determined to release terrorist violence and mayhem on American soil.


Jack will use every skill to get his sister back from Jonas and stop him from his evil deed. It is difficult to believe that Jonas was once a college professor. What happened to his mind to make him turn against America and become a terrorist?

Here is a special treat for you to watch "Miz" from the WWE.

A Good Day to Die Hard Starring Bruce Willis, Jai Courtney and Sebastian Koch




John McClane the subversive cop who takes action past the limit of no return is also a father. His two children are Lucy and Jack McClane and he will do anything for them humanly possible. And they know this---however they feel it is their duty to protect their Dad as much as possible to keep him out of trouble which has not worked so far.

John has a prickly relationship with his son Jack but this does not stop him from traveling to Russia because he thinks his outwardly strong-willed son needs him.

Lucy takes her Dad to the airport and tells him to try and not made whatever he is going to find a bigger mess than it already is.

John looks at his daughter and smiles as he departs from the vehicle and as he walks away he says his favorite line----Yippee ki yay. So now we know John McClane is in for a lot of action because trouble seems to follow him where ever he goes.

Jack McClane has been arrested as he is led to a bullet proof armor vehicle and guarded by men ready for battle. However, it appears that Jack has a lot of his father in him as he escapes and is riding off in a van and almost runs over John McClane.

Jack is surprised to see his dad and after he and his dad talked the truth is much clearer. John now knows his son is a CIA operative trying to prevent a nuclear weapons heist.
                                                               
Now the two McClane have joined together to fight the enemy and being on foreign soil does not intimidate John McClane. So when John and Jack McClane become partners they are a source to fear---as all Hell will break out---so if it is the Russians that are the evil nuclear weapon robbers---they had better dig a hole and hide---because the McClanes will bury them.

This movie will be out on DVD soon and I for one cannot wait.

Dark Territory Starring Steven Seagal, Eric Bogosian and Everett McGill





The United States has launched a new satellite named “Grazer One”. This satellite is so powerful it can locate a topless sunbather on the beach and film her freckles.


So all the Pentagon Brass feel great about themselves---patting each other on the back; as Grazer One has proven it is operating at the level it was designed to do.


Seal Commander Casey Ryback (Steven Seagal) has retired after the last episode---where he with the help of a few---reclaimed the US Battleship Missouri. Now he is a Chef at the “Mile High Cafe” in Denver---but is still contacted by the Seals for various reasons---probably for his expertise advice.



Casey recently lost his brother in an airplane crash---and now he has planned a train trip with his niece Sarah Ryback (Katherine Heigl) to they can---become reacquainted. He has not seen her in five years; because due to his Seals assignments he missed his brother’s funeral. He wonders if his niece holds that against him.


So much is going through his mind now but he must stay focused on his niece and start a wonderful vacation with her. So he headed for the train station and looked for his niece.


Casey looked at so many young girls and eliminated each one---confused---until his niece found him. Sarah was so grown up and very beautiful---he felt very proud she was his niece.




When he asked her what she had been doing. A little of her bitterness showed in her answer of---taking care of airplane crashes and planning a funeral.


As they walked to the train Casey told his niece---I remembered you liked Teddy Bears---so I got you one and this may not be exactly like the ones you like---but it is the thought that counts.


Sarah took the bear and said---thanks. Then she started walking fast past him. Poor Uncle Casey struck out again. He says---I guess I am not trained for this.


On the same train is Captain Linda Glider (Brenda Brakke) and Captain David Trilling (David Gianopoulos) so one might think they are meeting as lovers do.


Casey and Sarah will travel through the Rocky Mountains to reach their destination LA. Casey made a prudent decision and hoped for a great time getting to know his niece again---Casey tried to relax.


Relaxation will be a short pleasure as Travis Dane (Eric Bogosian) with Marcus Penn (Everett McGill) a gun for hire with his 20+ mercenaries seized the train and all the people on board.


Travis Dane who has a psychiatric-disorder is the ex-CIA brain child of the “Grazer One” Satellite. He contracted to make 1 Billion dollars by hacking in the CIA Database and planned to destroy the Eastern Seaboard by blowing up a nuclear reactor. He boarded the train to set up a mobile database for his evil commitment.


Now we know there will be plenty of action in this movie---just what I like about Steven Seagal---he has been one of my favorite action actors for many years. And will be for many more I hope.

Under Siege Starring Steven Seagal, Gary Busey and Tommy Lee Jones



This is one of my favorite Steven Seagal Movies and I actually played the video so much over the years it broke---so I replaced it with a DVD---because this movie is good----movie lovers. 

Casey Ryback (Steven Seagal) is a cook on the US battleship Missouri. No one aboard the ship knows that Casey is also a Navy Seal but Captain Adams (Patrick O’Neal). Casey is his personal cook. Captain Adams and Casey trust each other as they have history together in the Navy.

Casey is well liked and trusted by all who worked closely with him in the kitchen. He only has one person who does not like him and that is ships XO Commander Krill (Gary Busey). 

Commander Krill is actually jealous of Casey’s relationship with the Captain; and cannot get the Captain to reprimand Casey about any issue he has with Casey.

Commander Krill was in trouble with the Captain when he found out that Commander Krill
approved a helicopter landing on the Missouri without clearing it with him. 

Krill told the Captain that it was a surprise for his birthday. So the Captain gave in and Krill told the Captain to stay in his cabin until they came to get him.

In the meantime Krill visits Casey’s kitchen just as Casey put pies in the oven--- and tells him about the Birthday surprise and Casey tells him---I am the only one who cooks for the Captain. 

Krill tells him to stand down that food is being sent for the Captain’s Surprise Birthday party-- and then spits in a pot of food Casey was cooking.
Casey did not take it with a fight. Then Krill had Casey locked up in one of the freezers.



The Helicopter has landed and on board was Miss July—Jordan Tate (Erika Eleniak), who was given a gig to pop out of a cake for the Captain’s Birthday Party. 


And, also getting off the Helicopter was William Stranix (Tommy Lee Jones) posing a leader of a rock band, but is really a mercenary and all the members of the rock band are mercenaries.


When the music stopped the shooting started with the highest Naval Officer in charge shot first then all the others at his table.


Then Commander Krill dressed like a woman with a wig goes to the Captain’s quarters and killed the Captain and the service man that was guarding the door.


William Stranix was a CIA operative who has or orchestrated the plan to unload all the Missouri’s nuclear warheads onto a submarine.



Stranix also has a vendetta with a CIA agent who sent assassins to kill him after he completed a job for them. Sealing the USA’s nuclear warheads is a way of making them pay for trying to kill him.


Krill tells Stranix about Casey being locked up a freezer---so he sends two men to kill him. And this is when the action begins. Casey uses his Deal training and hit them with everything he has and so begins the war on the Missouri. Hell has no fury like Casey when he fights back.

Pain and Gain Starring Mark Wahlberg, Dwayne Johnson and Anthony Mackie



This is a tue story that begins in Miami Florida with Daniel Lugo (Mark Wahlberg) . Whose main goal in life was to become a body builder. And I would say from seeing his body he has made it. But Daniel is like most people after one aspiration is accomplished---then one becomes bored and looks around for the next adventure.

He worked with his friend Adrian Doorbal (Anthony Mackie) at Sun Gym in Miami Florida--- for a while now; and he has become embittered with his living from paycheck to paycheck. He does not want to be a body builder for the next 40 years. He wants something better--- a richer life.

So he comes up with a plan---choosing the criminal way out. He seeks the help of an ex-con just out of prison now a member of the gym. The ex-con’s name is Paul Doyle (Dwayne Johnson)--- his body has seen a lot of weight building attention—WOW!

Another person who frequents the gym is a wealthy, pampered business man Victor Kershaw (Tony Shalhoub). So the plan is to abduct Victor---to torment and force him to turn over---his assets.

Paul told Daniel he was not a killer and Daniel advised him they would not kill him---and somewhere in the back of Daniel’s mind---one can almost see his most famous words to himself and others “No Pain and No Gain.” Anyone belonging to a health club or gym has this phrase branded in their memory banks.

So the three of them Daniel, Adrian and Paul accomplished their mission to get Victor to turn over all his assets--- but what they did not count on---Victor survived the attempted murder and helped the police all he could with details---- about the gang who robbed and tried to murder him.  However, not even the awesome Miami Police could locate the “Sun Gym Gang.”

So Victor hires his own man to get the criminals who left him scarred and broke. He hired Det. Ed Di Bois(Ed Harris) to catch the criminals. And now the chase is on---because this man does not stop until his assignemnt is completed.

So the action, fire power, pandemonium and the race is on---Det. Ed De Bois is after his prey---however the gang will fight back.

I cannot wait to buy this DVD-the movie opens in theatres on April 26th 2013---watch your movie schedules and enjoy this action-packed adventure.

Dead Man Down Starring Colin Farrell, Noomi Repace and Terrence Howard


                                     
Everything in Victor’s (Colin Farrel) life was going great. His job as an enforcer to a New York City crime boss Alphonse Hoyt (Terrance Howard) paid well.

Victor is a family man with a wife and a daughter and life was as normal as life can be in his business---he could take care of his family and give them a better life than most families--- during these troubled times.

Until Beatrice (Noomi Rapace) witnessed a murder and Victor was the one who did it. He did not know someone was recording his criminal act. But Beatrice was and for her own benefit.

She stalked Victor until she found out what she needed to know. Then and only then did she plan what she would do next. And that was to meet him in a public location where she would be safe when she told him.

Beatrice met Victor and told him she saw what he did and then showed him the video. Victor wondered in those short second what did this woman want---experience told him---it would not be good---when he found out.

She told him that his boss Alphonse Hoyt was the one responsible for the scars on her face and she wanted Victor to kill him---she was after revenge.

This is where the action begins--- but does not ever seem to end---ever. It only gets worse as Alfonse learns it is Victors who is trying to kill him. Then he kills the ones Victor loved the most---his family.

Then the Gates of Hell opened with flames and smoke---- revenge rode a horse of fire leading the  Devil's posse--- as Victor now is after his own retaliation---this city has never seen the likes of what this man will do for payback. Will Alphonse pay with his life? Will Victor be killed before he get revenge for his family?
What will Beatrice be doing when all the rages of Hell happened? Will the movie end with our cheers? We will have to wait and see when it comes out in March 8, 2013.

-G.I. Joe Retaliation- Starring Dwayne Johnson, Channing Tatum and Adrianne Palicki



He wanted to make a difference for a better world so he was trained to be the best enforcer, with martial arts, warlike fierce fighter of all time, aggressive and lethal to the enemy. One who never loses and rarely trusts anyone with valuable information that protects him and his unit.


The man described above could only fit the description of one man called “Roadblock” (Dwayne Johnson) and he has the finest unit in the world of trained fighters.

The other good guys in the unit are Captain Duke Hauser (Channing Tatum), Snake Eyes (Ray Park), Lady Jaye (Adrianne Palicki) and of course G.I. Joe himself General Joseph Colton (Bruce Willis).

This unit works for the President of the United States of America (Jonathan Pryce) who is a good and trustworthy man. And Roadblock trusted the President---until he didn’t and he suspects something is wrong at the White House and it is.

The evil Zartan (Arnold Vosloo) is impersonating the President who is now his prisoner. And his evil followers Storm Shadow(Byung-hun Lee) and Firefly (Ray Stevenson) and all these men are serving under the wicked Cobra Commander (Faran Thir).

The Cobra Commander is the deadly enemy of Roadblock and his unit. Zartan framed all G.I. Joe Special Ops. And acting as the President---Zartan eliminates all most all of the G.I. Joe Unit.

When bad comes to worse Roadblock knows he can trust only one man and that is G.I. Joe. So, he sends for him and the fight begins good over evil and we know the action will bounce off the screen into our world of adventure.
                                                              

A place where we can visit our favorite actor and actress as they flash across the screen to bring entertainment into our world and joy to all the fans---young and old.

A Bullet to the Head Movie Starring Sylvester Stallone, Jason Momoa and Christian Slater



James Bonomo (Sylvester Stallone) a New Orleans hitman’s partner was killed by Keegan (Jason Momoa) a skilled ex-mercenary. Keegan also killed a New York City Detective Taylor Kwon (Sung Kang)’s partner.

So it only made sense for them to team up and go after the bad guy. And Hell has not fury like James Bonomo when he is avenging the death of a good friend and partner. He has no rules to play by but his own and he reacts to the moment. However Detective Taylor Kwon does have rules to go by and executes them in the beginning and as close to the law as possible.

But James takes out the trash and solves problems and this is one issue that will be bloody and messy. No one will hide from this man who is a sphere of fury rolling over the top of his enemies like a 5 ton ball of fiery steel.

When he tells his daughter Lisa Bonomo (Sarah Shahi) about his partner being killed she reminded him he promised her he would get out of this business. With revenge on his mind he goes after his prey and does not care who tries to stop him---he will not be deterred.

But when Keegan takes Lisa---James’ daughter to use as bait to lure in James ---the fireworks begins--- and I am afraid the bad guy Keegan has bitten off more than he can handle. James would walk over hot coals to get to his daughter.

James does not trust anyone and he said that is how he stays in the game of life over death. One could almost feel sorry for the bad guy because I know he has met his match.

I cannot wait to get the DVD of this movie and I hope everyone enjoys Sly in this one---he just keeps on getting better and better.

Pearl Harbor Starring Ben Affleck, Kate Beckinsale and Josh Hartnett

 This is a magnificent movie---it has history, action, romance and a fantastic love story. But let’s start at the beginning of our story in 1923 in the beautiful state of Tennessee. 

Rafe McCawley (Ben Affleck) and his best friend Danny Walker (Josh Hartnett) are young boys playing in an old stripped airplane. Probably an old discarded crop duster left in an old shed a perfect gift for little boys to let their imagination soar among the clouds with their heroes.
The boys were best friends living near each other. Rafe always protected Danny because he was younger ---like any older brother would do for their younger brother. All they dreamed about was flying together one day.
In 1940 Adolph Halter draws all of Europe into war and even though France has fallen to Hilter America still refuses to join the ranks of war.

n Long Island January 1941 Rafe and Danny are officially pilots after two years of training and now they know how to handle an airplane for real. So much so they get in trouble doing maneuvers with their airplanes showing how good they are in the sky.
Their last stunt got them both called into Lt. Col. James Doolittle’s (Alex Baldwin) office. First called into his office for a reprimand was Danny and he listened a while and then told the Lt. Col. That he was only trying to inspire the men like he the Lt. Col. Inspired him.
So, this took the wind out of the Lt. Col. Sails for a moment and the Lt. Col. Doolittle said that is BS McCawley, but very,
 very good BS. He said McCawley you remind me of myself 15 years ago.
Lt. Col. Doolittle told McCawley the British have accepted you into the Eagle Squadron and you will be on your way to England if you want to go.
What would you go Major?
I would go even though we will probably be in war soon because of Hitler and I will need you here with me.
Yes Sir---I am on my way.
Then Rafe tells his best friend Danny about his assignment and he is upset.
Danny said--- Guess what it is not combat training over there---it is war. There are no winners the losers die and the ones who come home are wrecks like my dad.
Rafe said--- I will be 25 years old---I will be an old man and they will want me to be a flight instructor, and I don’t want to do loops I want to be a combat fighter.
A group of nurses are on a train going to their assignment---Nurse Lt. Evelyn Johnson (Kate Breckinsale), Nurse Barbara (Catherine Kellner), nurse Betty ( Jaime King), Nurse Sandra (Jennifer Garner) and Nurse Lt. Evelyn Johnson is asked to tell a story about her experience of four weeks ago.
After Rafe leaves the office of the Lt. Col. Doolittle a bus is waiting to take all the pilots to be examined and inoculated. Evelyn tells about meeting Rafe as she gave him is eye examination.
Rafe was afraid that he would fail because he had trouble reading letters. And he explained this all to Lt. Evelyn Johnson---and since she knew how important flying was because her father was a pilot she passed him.
And so the love story begins and I will stop here as not to spoil the movie for you when you see it. It is one of my favorite Ben Affleck Movies. Ben’s wife Jennifer Garner was in this film also as Nurse Sandra. She is easily recognized by her deep dimples---a beautiful lady. They were not dating at this time---that came later.

The Marine 2 Starring Ted DiBiase Jr., Temuera Morrison, & Lara Cox



Joe Linwood (Ted DeBiase Jr.) who is a Maine Sniper was finally going home from Southeast Asia for two weeks to spend a vacation with his beautiful wife Robin Linwood (Lara Cox).  All Joe wanted was to stay home and enjoy his hometown. Joe contacted Robin by Skype to let her know he was coming home for two weeks.
Robin told Joe he could be with her in Paradise as her super rich client Darren Conner (Robert Coleby) is opening a resort on an Island and she is in charge. What about Joe she asked it will be five days of sun and beach---it will be wonderful?
Joe told her I was looking forward to getting back home to Michigan and Robin told him she was sorry it was her job and she knew it was bad timing but she needed him to come home. And Joe said anywhere you are--- is my home.
So they are now on their way to the new resort and all Joe can do is look at his beautiful wife and Robin is so happy Joe is with her.
Finally they landed on the Island and it is as beautiful as Robin thought it would be and more---she is so happy to be there with Joe---her handsome and much loved husband.

They are met by Cynthia (Kelly B. Jones) she and Robin have talked over the phone and Skype a lot and this is their first meeting. Cynthia shows them around Paradise it is so lovely and Joe points out a tower and says you have security. Cynthia said yes we have 24 hour guard security tower---the top of the line. Cynthia showed Robin where they were having the party tomorrow night for the Resort's Grand Opening.
Later and before Robin has to begin work she and Joe are on the beach relaxing when Darren Conner walks up and says---it is so nice to see someone having a good time. Robin said I was waiting for you to arrive. Darren Conner this is my husband---Joe shook his hand and Darren said soldier right. Robin said actually he is a Marine. Darren said right---then put his arm around Robin to take her aside and tell her he is getting 24 calls an hour because some rep. has a reporter trying to interview him and some peace order trying to hit him with injunctions. Will you please do you job.

Robin says to Joe and you thought your job was hard---she smiles and walks away to catch up with Darren Conner.
After her meeting they have a few hours they can enjoy themselves so they wanted to go scuba diving and this is when they met Church (Michael Rucker) who has a business on the Island. He and Joe talk for a bit and they loaded up the boat with their gear to scuba dive and swim to the Island which is back of the resort.
That night all Hell broke out as they were attached and the Resort was taken with many hostages---one of them was Robin. This is when being married to a Marine really pays off. Action is the keyword here and saving Robin is what Joe will do as he risks his life for his beautiful wife.

I liked this movie because I love action and romance together in a great story of what can really
happen at anytime in the world of ours.

The Marine Starring John Cena, Kelly Clarkson and Robert Patrick

When John Triton (John Cena) a marine saved the lives of other marines by ignoring a command to stand down and wait for backup was wrong as far as the Marine’s rules. So the hero who saved others was given an honorable
discharge---he had to leave what he loved the most next to his beautiful wife Kate (Kelly Clarkson)---the marines.

After John returned home he was lost---andhurt at the outcome of his career in the Marines---and he did not know what to do with himself. He was so happy to be home with his wife---yet a gloomy halo of sadness surrounded him. Kate recognized it and was trying to come up with something John could do for excitement.

Kate suggested they go to the beach, but John said he had seen enough sand in the Marine’s. So they packed up and start to the mountains. Life was great they were so in love and enjoying being together.
Earlier a team of diamond thieves robbed a jewelry store killing people had stopped to get gas. The leader Rome (Robert Patrick) was driving a stolen Cadillac. 

The gun-crazed killer on the team was Morgan (Anthony Ray Parker). And while a deputy was talking to Rome about a sticker on his bumper Morgan walks out of the station and shoot the deputy in the head.



Then all bedlam started--- because one of the guys takes Kate as hostage while John is in the store knocked out. They shot the other deputy as he tried to get away and then they exploded everything up around them.
John makes it out of the store alive and uses the deputy’s car to chase after them because they took Kate and his vehicle. 

This is one of the most action-packed movies I have seen in a long time---compete pandemonium from the beginning to the end. There is also a surprise ending with who turn out to in on the diamond heist.

The Firm Starring Tom Cruise

Firm logo.jpgThe Firm is a show that centers on the McDeere Family after they surface from the witness protection program after ten years to begin a new life in the Washington Metro Area. Mitchell McDeere known as Mitch (Josh Lucas) is a graduate of Harvard Law College. 

Mitch’s wife Abby McDeere (Molly Parker) and their daughter Claire McDeere (Natasha Calis) with his brother Raymond known as Ray McDeere (Callum Keith Rennie) is the older brother who served time in prison and is now working with Mitch as an investigator for his law office. 

Ray’s girlfriend Tammy Hemphill (Juliette Lewis) all four went into the witness protection because they helped Mitch who was a whistle blower for the FBI take down a dishonest Memphis Law Firm with ties to the Chicago mob connections.
Claire was born while they were in the witness protection program---so she is familiar with the reason they had to move so often--- to stay ahead of the mob finding them.
And since the Chicago mob boss died in prison the McDeere family is starting their life over---although they are still dealing with the past and its little issue---they are looking brightly towards the future.
Abby is teaching elementary school again and her daughter is in her classroom. Abby freedom is blissfully rewarding now as she can have the career she loves.


Mitch has opened a new law office in a building which was a tiny travel agency, and with him Ray and Tammy. Ray is his investigator for the law practice and Tammy is his secretary and they are working under a strict budget to begin the business. But they are all positive and plan a bright future as the ten years in witness protection.
The first episode beings with Mitch being chased by three men across a park and Mitch got away by running through a huge water fountain and then jumping into the back of a truck.

When he get to a phone he calls Abby telling her she needs to get out of there and she asked why---and Mitch said for her to follow the emergency plan. Mitch tells her he will be there soon---he hangs up.


Mitch met with a man in a hotel room---thinking he had lost the tail of the three men chasing him and they would be safe. But before they can really begin to talk someone is banging on the door saying they are with the hotel security. But Mitch and the man know it is not security because they would have a key.
The small bits of the conversation consist of Mitch telling the man a woman is dead and you know something about it. And the man replied---I am a dead man if I talk, you do not know these people.
Mitch replied---I know people in the FBI they will protect you.
The man said---no one can protect me---I am a dead man already. Then he runs out on the balcony and dives off to the concrete below. He commits suicide jumping to his death eight (8) stories.


Mitch cannot believe his eyes---but has to run out on the balcony himself to escape the men who have now crashed through the locked door. Mitch escapes just in time by sliding down two floors below and running out a second floor window; jumps and landed onto a luggage cart below.

Then the scene takes us back to the McDeere home where they are talking about what happened. This is a great action movie and I wished it was going for a second season but it is not. So enjoy what we do have and it will give us all something to ponder on what might happen after we see all 22 episodes of The Firm.
