A Star is Born with Lady Gaga, Bradley Cooper and Sam Elliott (2018)
This is such a beautifully sad story about a talented girl Ally (Lady Gaga) who would probably never have the chance to make it big as a singer. Until, she met Jackson'Jack'Maine (Bradley Cooper) a famous country rock singer who had a drinking and drug issue. Jack had his chauffer stop in front of a bar where Ally sang sometimes.She was friends with the owner.
Ally's singing got Jack's attention and their love story began that very night. It was love at first sight, Ally travelled with Jack around the USA singing with him. Ally became very popular and her career soared. Jack had to be a little jealous of Ally's success as a new singer; and, she wrote her own songs. She and Jack sang together and had a powerful love for each other.
They had the world as they traveled aqnd sang together while Jack drank and took his pill. He did stumbled and fell many times, but Ally did not turn away because she love him to the moon and back.
This movie is three hours long and the best movie Bradley Cooper has ever made in my opinion. And, now I am a fan of Lady Gaga. I hope to see her in many more movies.

In the Blood with Gina Carano, Cam Gigandet, Ismael Cruz Cordova and Danny Trejo
Ava (Gina Carano) met Derek Grant (Cam Gigandet) at Narcotics Anonymous gatherings. They spend time together and soon fall in love.
Ava and Derek came from very different backgrounds. Ava had a horrific experience when she was 14-year-old girl. Her father was murdered by two masked intruders before Ava could gun them down with a shotgun. Her life was rough without her father, so she drank too much and took drugs to dull the pain she thought. She finally realized she needed help so she joined Narcotics Anonymous.
Derek's family was wealthy and he asked Ava to marry him. They fly to the Caribbean Island for their
honeymoon.
It was beautiful and they were so much in love and it seems to grow with every hour they spent together laughing and having fun. Ava was the kind of woman when she fell in love it was forever, and Derek felt the same way.
They met Manny (Ismael Cruz Cordova) and they became a threesome as Manny showed them around to all the hotspots and fun places. Everything was wonderful as they spent time together until Derek fell from a zip-line in the rainforest, he was riding. Ava ran down to where he had fallen and was unconscious, but alive; she kissed him and ran for help.
Then the ambulance came for Derek, but would not let Ava ride with him to the hospital. They gave her a card with the name of the hospital. Then, she went to the hospital and could not find Derek as she asked and waited for hours and the nurse told her they could have taken him to another hospital.
Ava searched in vain as she went to all the surrounding hospitals and clinics, but he was nowhere to be found.
Ava checked back with the police chief to see if they had any results. This movie had a surprise ending as Ava used all her self-defense skills trying to make people talk that was hiding something from her.
I really enjoyed this movie and you can see it on YouTube.

Extraction (2015) Starring Bruce Willis, Kellan Lutz and Gina Carano
In 2005 a group of Russian terrorist kidnapped an undercover CIA operative Leonard Turner (Bruce Willis) and help him captive while interrogating him. Leonard did not appear as if he had the skills to free himself--however his training went way beyond the most trained operatives.
When Leonard was given a pen to sign some papers--he signed and then stabbed him in the neck and took out the rest of the crew. He then called his CIA friend to get to his house and protect his wife and son.
Ten years later in the cemetery Leonard and his son are visiting the grave of his wife and his son Harry's (Kellan Lutz) mother. Harry feels his father is holding ill feelings towards him, because as a kid the day his mother was killed by a Russian terrorist--his father told him to get the gun out of the bedroom and hide. Harry hid and the Russian found him. The CIA friend took the Russian out and Harry just a kid did not fire a shot.
Leonard did not hold that against Harry--he was proud of his well trained son. Like father, like son when it came to fighting skills no one could touch them.
This is a great action movie and I enjoyed Victoria (Gina Carano) who was a field agent assigned to recover The Condor while keeping Harry out of the loop. This is an action pack with bits of flirtation thrown in for the passion of the movie.
Grab your popcorn and drizzle it with chocolate giving your taste buds a treat of salty and sweet. I give this action film a 5 Star Plus rating.

Angel Has Fallen Starring Gerard Butler, Morgan Freeman, Jada Pinkett Smith, Nick Nolte
Mike Banning (Gerard Butler) still a Secret Service agent protecting President Allan Trumbull (Morgan Freeman) who trust Mike because he has been faithful, true and honest; plus saving his life on many occasions. The president only completely trust one man and this Mike.
Mike reconnects with is old friend an Army Ranger Teammate Wade Jennings (Danny Huston). He goes through a training at his friends military facility in Virginia. Wade is the CEO of Salient Global which is locate on his 5000 acres that he calls Disneyland.
Wade has his own hidden agenda as he talks to Mike about government contracts. He complained that since the Blackwater fiasco they cancelled all contracts causing his business to be crippled. He knew Mike was up for a promotion and could help him. He told Mike if he could get a contract to train Special Ops at Salient Global it would get him out of the red. Mike replied that he would see what he could do.
President Trumbull in a meeting with the Vice President Martin Kirby (Tim Blake Nelson) when he stated- I thought I made myself clear about no private contractors. The subject about a leak was brought up and no one admitted to being the one who talked out of the Oval Office.
While President Trumbull was on a fishing trip with Mike and his protection team an attempt was made on his life by a swarm of armed drones. the only survivals were the president and Mike. Mike saved the president.
The action starts to heat up when Mike wakes up to being cuffed to his hospital bed. He is questioned by FBI Special Agent Helen Thompson (Jada Pinkett Smith) although Mike answered truthfully she had him arrested. The president was in a coma not aware of this occurrence.
Mike wife Leah (Piper Perabo) was questioned by FBI Special Agent Helen Thompson and it did not end well as Leah told her off.
This is a very good movie and it was well worth $9.99 I purchased it from Walmart in the store.
It only get better with more action when Mike visits his Dad played by Nick Nolte.

Shining Through Starring Michael Douglas and Melanie Griffith
This is one of my favorite movies because of Michael
Douglas---no one can outshine him especially in this movie. He is that man that every woman wants. The kind of man who will stop at nothing to save the woman he loves.
And, besides “Buffalo Girls” this is my favorite Melanie Griffith movies. She is
young and beautiful as makes one hold their breath as she ventures into harm’s
way.
The movie begins in 1940 when Adolf Hitler--- was the leader of
the Nazi Party---he was born in Austria in 1889 and was a German politician.
His gold was to start a New Order of total Nazi German supremacy in Europe. When
Hitler’s forces invaded Poland it began World War II. This is the background of
this movie.
A young woman named Linda Voss (Melanie Griffith) begins a
new job at a New York Law Firm in 1940. She speaks fluent German as she is of Irish/German-Jewish descent.
Linda is first put in a pool with a lot of other girls, but
being intelligent she makes sure Ed Leland (Michael Douglas) knows she
can speak German. Consequently, she becomes an assistant/translator to Ed Leland.
He is a man who is serious and never smiles, but that does not put off Linda as she is determined to make a difference in the world. She loves movies and attends as often as possible. And, with her movie knowledge she has figured out that Ed Leland is more than he appears. That he is a spy working for the United States securing information which will help in the war efforts.

And, with her movie knowledge she has figured out that Ed Leland is more than he appears. That he is a spy working for the United States securing information which will help in the war efforts.
Soon they become more than employer and employee---they
become lovers. She is totally in love with him, but he makes one wonder if he
really loves her or if he is afraid to love anyone because of the war.
What happened next is Ed Leland is called to duty and has to
leave the war department. Linda is alone and distressed and is now just another
employee in the war department. She cannot find out anything about him or where
he is or if he is alive or not. Then, as suddenly as he appeared he returns.
I do not want to spoil the movie for you---so I will stop
here and tell you the excitement is just beginning for Leland, Linda and the
ones she will meet while on her assignment as a spy to uncover information from Nazi German Officers.
In order to do the assignment she becomes a nanny for a German officer Franze-Otto Dietrich (Liam Neeson) This is a movie of love, intrigue, romance, mystery, sorrow, trust and unworthy of trust, and, this is why I say it is a great movie.

Hello, My Name is Doris starring Sally Field, Max Greenfield and Beth Behrs~March 11th 2016 in USA
Doris Miller (Sally Field) accepted the humdrum life of a
woman in her sixties until she met the new art director John Fremont (Max
Greenfield) a young muscular hunk who, was now working in her office. To say daydreams
are for the young would be a foolish statement because older women enjoy
them as well.
Since John and Doris worked in the same office they seemed
to find themselves together at lot. And, Doris decided after she attended a
self-help seminar to give in to a new friendship with a much younger guy and
see where it goes. Even if they become just great friends Doris was beginning
to enjoy much younger people and they loved her.
She inspired the younger crowd as well as getting their attention
and being including in their lives. Doris began to shine and to enjoy life
probably for the first time. Doris’ spent most of her life caring for her
mother. She even gave up marriage because she was a loyal daughter. Now she
dressed younger and was being included by John’s crowd who truly liked her.
Doris was having the time of her life because she and John
were becoming close. This did not sit well with her close friend played by (Tyne
Daly) because she either thought Doris had lost her mind, or she was jealous
and felt she was losing a friend.
What will happen between this December and May relationship?
Every woman should experience a relationship with a younger man---if only once.
She will have great memories to last forever.
This is on my list to see as I have always loved Sally Field
in anything she played in. My calendar is marked for March 11th
2016. See you at the movies.

Sicario starring Benicio Del Toro, Emily Blunt and Josh Brolin
The premiere is September 18th
2015 in the USA. Sicario means assassin or hit-man; either term means a killer
without remorse. In the unsafe country of Mexico seeing someone killed, kidnapped
or missing has become so common than the good people live in
fear.
The uncontrollable and ungovernable border extending between Mexico and the United States has become the focus of an elite government task force. The force is recruiting the cream of the crop FBI agents to work for them; and this is how Kate Marcer (Emily Blunt) began her job with them.
Her main duty she is to assist in
the escalating war against drugs coming into the United States across the
border. This task alone is beyond most men, even the ones who walked before her
and other agents; whose faded footprints died in the parched land of both
countries.
Kate works with the Task Force commanded by a mysterious professional Non-American named Alejandro (Benicio Del Toro) who leads them in searching for nameless drug lord. She quickly finds out the playing field might have CIA agents in the mix and the risk factor rises in lieu of their presence; rather than making it more secure.
Her so call duties are multiplying; in essence she now has to watch her back because she does not know who to trust. She’s warned by Matt (Josh Brolin) that she saw things sheshould not have seen; which puts her life at risk. Kate has found out she is not just a member of the task force, but an enemy to so many; even her own people. Who can she trust? Will Kate make it? Who has her back? Who wants to kill her? Is it Sicario?
This movie will keep us on the edge of our last nerve with its action, drama, crime as it boasts to all it is truly a thriller.
Mark your calendars in the USA for September 18th premiere. Thanks for reading my movie review.

Terminator Genisys with Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Clark, Emilia Clarke and Jai Courtney (July 1st 2015 USA)
I have enjoyed this series
since the beginning in 1984, and that seems like a long time ago. However, I
bet any fan of Arnold’s can remember the entire movie. I know I can.
Here are the movies sequels
in order:
- The Terminator 1984
- Terminator 2: Judgement Day 1991
- Terminator 3: The Rise of the Machines 2003
- Terminator Salvation 2009
Skynet
sweep though millions of computers servers around the Globe. Then, became aware
of its self-worth and now uses machines to kill the human race because it views
them as its enemy.
Skynet’s servers execute the control of: war-machines, cyborgs,
Terminators, satellites and drones; it seems humanity's fight has just begun.
Terminator 2: Judgement Day---The Terminator has been
reprogrammed to protect the future by saving John and Sarah Connor and fighting
against the new machine assassin sent to kill them.
The Terminator is
back to protect John and Sarah and to destroy the female
assassin machine sent to kill the Connors.
Terminator Salvation: Humans against the machines in a war they must not lose; but it is a struggle of a fight to the bitter end.
And, now the fifth in the series: Terminator Genisys which
will premiere July 1st 2015 in the USA and I am millions of fans
will be waiting.
Sarah Connor (Emilia Clarke) is still
fighting against the machines that want to end humanity. After Sarah had John
Connor (Jason Clarke) she began preparing him against the machines for the survival
of humanity.
The Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is back to
save the Connors and Humanity. John Connor still the leader of the resistance sends Kyle Reese (Jai Courtney) back in
time to save his mother to guarantee his own existence and finds out The Terminator
is there to help and not hurt Sarah.
The war goes on with the machines and the
human race. Will it end here with the machines? I think not as
there will be more movies coming in the future for the Connors, The Terminator
and the machines as the American Science Fiction Series continues in the future
for our pleasure. As Arnold says, “I’ll Be Back.”

Survivor with Milla Jovoich, Pierce Brosnan and Emma Thompson (May 29th 2015 in USA)
Kate Abbott's (Milla Jovoich) new job in the US Embassy is to prevent terrorist attacks in the United States. This is the reason she’s located in the United Kingdom for a better feed from around the world; preventing terrorist reaching the United States.
She is good at her job and when she tried to block a
terrorist attack on New York the leaders of the group hired the world’s top
assassin; the Watchmaker (Pierce Brosnan) to kill her.
Now, Kate is on the run after proving her job skills by
zoning in on the target; and the leaders of the terrorist group is framing her
for criminal act. So, it seems everyone is trying to kill her.
Sam (Dylan McDermott) worked with Kate
and believes in her, but he is receiving pressure from his superiors to go
after her as well. Now, Kate only has her survivor skills to keep her safe, but
will they be enough for her to save herself.
She cannot trust anyone as it’s apparent they want her
dead. Why? Maybe Kate uncovered the heart of the terrorist operation in the
United Kingdom, or the US Embassy. It’s someone who’s trusted who is a cold-
blooded killer.

Hitman: Agent 47 with Rupert Friend, Zachary Quinto, Hannah Ware and Ciarán Hinds--- Premieres August 28th (USA)
This is an action movie I cannot wait to see and when you view the
trailer I am sure you will agree. This movie is a reboot from the video game
that is very popular around the world..
47 is the creation involving decades of research
including 46 *genetically engineered clones before him. He is a top assassin
with unique quickness, power, endurance and intelligence. And, created by ‘The
Agent Program’ with the scientist in charge---who is responsible for Agent
47--- played by(Ciarán Hinds).
Agent 47 works for a covert organization; ‘The International
Contracts Agency’--- that controls assassinations of prestigious targets.
Will 47 feel emotions about Katie as they work together? Is
Katie listening to John Smith (Zachary Quinto) that Agent 47 is
the key to find her father? Does John Smith have an ulterior-motive? Does 47 or
John Smith really cares about Katie’s feelings?
* Restriction enzymes are used to break a DNA molecule into fragments so that genes from another organism can be inserted into the DNA; for the purposes of altering and controlling
Note: Paul Walker was
committed to play Agent 47, but sadly we lost him in 2013. Then Rupert Friend
acquired the role of 47, and from the trailer I’ve seen---he is great as Agent
47.

San Andreas with Dwayne Johnson, Carla Gugino, Alexandra Daddario and Colton Haynes (May 29th 2015 USA)
Ray (Dwayne
Johnson) a rescuer helicopter pilot for Los Angeles Fire Department. His agenda
allows for emergencies, but not a gigantic earthquake like this one in life.
Remember the saying---truth is stranger than fiction---well I say life
experiences are worse than fiction in some cases.
The earth cracked
on the west coast and the ripple effect collapsed buildings, bridges, and roadways,
like a giant stepping on ants--- disintegrating them into rubble. Scientists do
not know what is coming next---it could be a tsunami higher than any recorded
since civilization.
There is now a
large crack in the earth very deep; and since many miles of lateral movement
could occur along the San Andreas Fault it will pulsate to the east coast, and
then what will happen is anyone’s guess.
Fear flashed is
in Ray’s eyes as he barely makes it in time to save his wife Emma (Carla Gugino) as he watched
tall buildings crumbled around her. His hand reached hers to hold tightly as he
lifted her into the helicopter. Ray’s helicopter clears the area seconds before
a tumbling building crushed them.
Safe, thankful,
and exhausted Ray and Emma will cautiously leave on their journey to find their
daughter Blake (Alexandra Daddario) in San Francisco.
The aftermath
shows devastation, death, and grief-stricken people searching for their loved
ones in the piles of burning ruins of what once stood tall and proud architectural
skyscrapers. Building that stood for many decades now piles of trash waiting
for removal by earth-movers to the dump.
On they traveled looking
for their daughter. What will they find if they can get to San Francisco? Will
the family be joined together again; only to die together trying to make it to
safety?
We will see on
May 29th of this year when the movie premieres. Will you be in line
to see this action, adventure movie when a rescue pilot and his helicopter survived
an earthquake; what will happen next?

Run All Night with Liam Neeson, Ed Harris, and Genesis Rodriguez and Joel Kinnaman
Danny’s father Shawn is a mob boss who wants revenge for his
son’s death. This situation became complicated because of Jimmy and Shawn’s
years of loyalty between them. However, family comes first in a prudent man’s
life. Even mobsters love their families.
What can a father do? What any father who is worth a grain of
salt would do---protect his son and his son’s family. Jimmy knew Shawn would
come after
his son because he killed Danny to save his son. Shawn may find revenge is
sometimes bitter-sweet.
Will a father stand by his son and protect him from his best
friend Shawn
Maguire (Ed Harris) he has known for years? This could be the question
Jimmy Conlon (Liam Neeson) thought about in reference to his alienated son Mike
Conlon (Joel Kinnaman) who now needs his help.
Jimmy’s life of being a gangster and a hired killer evidently
came between him and Mike. Mike’s family comes first in his life, and now they
were in jeopardy because his father killed Danny Maguire (Boyd Holbrook).
A father’s love knows no boundaries when it comes to his
children.

Cut Bank – Liam Hemsworth, Teresa Palmer and Billy Bob Thornton (2015)
Cut Bank Montana’s population is approximately 2,978 qualifying
it for a small town where the Rockies meet the Plains. Growing-up in a small
town has its good and not so good points. Dwayne McLaren (Liam Hemsworth) wants
more than anything to move to a big city leaving the small town mentality
flapping in the wind. He is making his living as an auto mechanic, not a fleet mechanic
that pays well, but automobiles of the citizens of Cut Bank.
Dwayne is in love with his beautiful blond girlfriend
Cassandra Steely (Teresa Palmer) and wants to take her with him to live in a city that never sleeps. And, that has been his dream since he graduated
two years ago. However, it takes a lot of money for his dream to come true, so
for now he just enjoys being with Cassandra.
Until one day his luck changed while making a video of his
girlfriend in a field of flowers. Or, did he make his luck change? Anyway,
while videotaping Cassandra someone walked across the field of flowers and shot
the mailman in cold blood. Dwayne and Cassandra hid in the flowers, while he
kept his camera running---he caught everything on video.
He showed the video of the murder to Sheriff Vogel (John
Malkovich) and Big Stan Steely (Billy Bob Thornton) which showed the mail was taken.
Maybe someone wanted something the mailman had on his mail truck. And, during
the time of this occurrence a guy name Derby Milton (Michael Stuhlbarg) was looking
for a package.
Dwayne’s luck is changing because he will get money for his
video and everything is looking great. Until, Big Stan Steely tells him---he is
on to him because he videotaped a moneymaking crime. And, then Joe Barrett
(Oliver Pratt) tells the sheriff they need to see the body. So, where is the
body?
This is going to be a good action, mystery thriller and that
is how savvy small townspeople are---they see everything, hear everything and
tell everything.

shoot him’ as the outlaw pushed her; the sheriff shot missing his target and
killed the woman. The worst experience for the sheriff; the woman was his wife.
Two years later Preston Biggs is the town drunk because he
blamed himself for his wife’s death. The sheriff gave him a job so he could
earn money to pay for the property damages in the bar. He now had a get out of
jail job.
The job was to take three women with prairie fever from their
town who came there as mail-order brides. He would travel by wagon with the
three women to Carson City to the nearest train.
She tried to kill her husband---so she waited in jail until she
boarded the wagon to Carson City. Lettie loved music and had her organ that she
brought into the marriage with her. Her husband had threatened to destroy it
and that is when Lettie tried to kill him.
The second traveler named Blue (Felicia Day) another mail-order
bride who carried a Bible and quoted from it with her ‘Hell Fire and
Damnations’ words spurred continuously talking.
Her husband told Preston at first she was a sweet loving
wife---but no longer so he was sending her to an asylum with her family’s
blessings. Her husband later found out the reason she acted so strangely.
The Third one was Abigail (Dominique Swain) who screamed the sky
was too big and would fall on the ground and cover her head. Later her actions
became clear.
This is a good western movie with a story I am sure happened
many times with mail-order brides. Love also began on this journey to make the
movie more romantic.
And, we learned about everyone traveling together---and to spice
it up---a fourth woman whose named Olivia Thibodeaux (Jamie Ann Allman)
joined them because she left her husband, Monte James (Lance Henriksen)
who is a gambler and who is much older than Olivia.

Goodnight for Justice with Luke Perry, Lara Gilchrist and Ron Lea
Times were difficult for farmers in the 1800s in the Wyoming
Territory because of the long droughts. No rain to germinate the seeds farmers
planted---sometimes the last seeds planted without money left to buy more. I am
sure the non-growing seeds the tired family man cursed many times before the
farmer gave up his dirt farm, he could not even do dry farming without water to
carry to his seed.
This is how John William Goodnight (Luke Perry) began his
journey that gave him a new direction in his young life.
John walked with his parents William (Adrian Hough) and Ada
Goodnight (Ingrid Tesch) into town without looking back at the
unfruitful life they left. When arriving at Dry Gulch they shared a
covered wagon with Judge Aldous (Tom Butler) and Rebecca Shaw (Gabrielle
Rose). The wagon was the only stage-coach the families had to travel in.
Judge Aldous Shaw and his wife enjoyed talking to John because he
was bright and quick with his questions of the Judge. Everyone laughed and
talked as the old covered wagon bumped and rattled its way over the crude
roads.
Suddenly,
bullets flew towards the stage-coach by the brother and his men who the Judge
had hung that morning before leaving Dry Gulch. The driver shot in cold blood
and the wagon overturned killing John’s mother and his father murdered
protecting his son. The brother of the hung man---killed the judge by stabbing
him---in the back.
John and Rebecca Shaw survived the slaughter and she took him in
and; educated him and he became a lawyer.
This is where we find the hard-drinking, property damaging rebel
rousing John Goodnight who seemed lacking in professional ambiance of a
privilege few. John as a lawyer had never lost a case, but it did not seem to
make his happy. So his adopted mother took measures into her own hands and had
the Governor of Illinois swear John in as a Circuit Judge of Wyoming Territory.
John’s new life begins as a judge---Hell-bent on seeing---justice
served. He did not care for lawyers because winning was utmost important with
them; and many times justice was not served. John and Rebecca were still
looking for justice in finding the ones who killed her husband his parents.
John would meet the most vial and cruel people in the Wyoming
territory as well as good decent people. Even the law enforcers like the
sheriff of some towns were crooks; so he had his hands full of staying alive
and seeing justice served—one way or another.
He
travelled on horseback through storms to arrive on time for his court sessions.
Sometime, the wildlife of the night interrupted is sleep, but with his bottle
of whiskey and a book to read---kept him warm and cozy through the night.
