Extraction 2 Trailer

My John Wick 4 Review

The best of these is our subject today. The 2008 effort Street Kings, starring Keanu Reeves. Reeves plays Tom Ludlow, a shady slob and heroContinue reading “STREET KINGS”

THE PALE BLUE EYE Review
From my friend Phil It was Saturday evening and there was nothing on regular TV to watch, so I had the choice of Glass Onion or The Pale Blue Eye. I wanted a well-crafted murder mystery, with an interesting story, well-directed, and made by a competent movie director, so of course, I put up TheContinue reading “THE PALE BLUE EYE Review”
