I am 1 hour and 14 min into this and it is a struggle. Gonna stop and pick it back up later today.
Dialogue is rough. Some of the acting is terrible. Some of the drone shots are bad. The story in the beginning is forced.


Update: I am now 1 hour and 47 min. in and it has gotten a little better.

Update: An ambulance gets about 7 miles to the gallon. The ambulance in this movie gets 80 it seems.

Update: 2 hours in and it got a little worse.

Update: It was ok. Not great. The end is spread on very thick. Could have been better. Gyllenhaal is best thing about the movie. Weird ending for him.

Black Rain
is a 1989 American neo-noir action thriller film directed by Ridley Scott and written by Craig Bolotin and Warren Lewis. It stars Michael Douglas, Andy Garc?a, Ken Takakura, and Kate Capshaw and features Yūsaku Matsuda (in his final film role before his death that year) and Shigeru Kōyama. The film focuses on two NYPD officers who arrest a member of the Yakuza and must escort him back to Japan. Once there, he escapes, and the two officers find themselves dragged deeper and deeper into the Japanese underworld.

Runaway Jury
is a 2003 American legal thriller film directed by Gary Fleder and starring John Cusack, Gene Hackman, Dustin Hoffman, and Rachel Weisz. An adaptation of John Grisham's 1996 novel The Runaway Jury,[2] the film pits lawyer Wendell Rohr (Hoffman) against shady jury consultant Rankin Fitch (Hackman), who uses illegal means to stack the jury with people sympathetic to the defense. Meanwhile, a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game begins when juror Nicholas Easter (Cusack) and his girlfriend Marlee (Weisz) appear to be able to sway the jury into delivering any verdict they want in a trial against a gun manufacturer. The film was released October 17, 2003.

King Richard 2002. Really decent, I liked it a lot. It was probably good that I had never really followed the Williams' sisters at all and only heard their dad was a nut, but I didn't know why. Will Smith pretty damn good. It starts when the girls were young (under 10?) and takes the life story to when they were 14ish. I'll give the movie 8/10.

Was it better the second time around? I didn't really care for it.

Yeah, I liked it again. I'm a big BB fan.

Also watched Man on Fire, Denzel Washington. On Tubi. Now sure how I missed this one but never saw it before. A revenge movie which I like. Denzel is a bodyguard for a rich kid. Kid gets kidnapped/killed and Denzel chases after the kidnappers after he recovers from shots he took during the kidnapping.

I highly recommend starting Better Call Saul from season 1 episode 1 and binge watch if you haven’t seen it at all.

We own this city - HBOmax police drama

Quite well done and interesting mini series (6 episodes) about Baltimore police unit that mostly robbed drug dealers but also regular citizens...
