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.

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.

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.
