When The Matrix came out in 1999 it was a phenomenon! A lot of its slow motion action scenes were original and have since become legendary. The hype created two more sequels, their successes and failures will depend on individual’s point of view. As I recalled, in the last episode, Neo was blinded and Trinity […]

SKIP! It seems the only reason to have this film made was to reboot the franchise and had Matt Damon resumed his role as Bourne. Otherwise, I was at a lost watching this actions packed film that didn’t really have a story to tell; the special effects: ip tracking, fighting and car chasing, could have […]

Perhaps this film was an answer to The Expendables franchise, cause I haven’t seen a film that had so many female dramatic actresses (TV and Movie) all under one roof: Susan Sarandon (Oscar), Kathy Bates (Oscar), Allison Janney, Toni Collette, Sandra Oh (Golden Globe). With this cast, poor Melissa McCarthy was set up for failure! And you can tell she was swimming upstream. In 1991 Thelma & Louise, Thelma (Geena Davis) and Louise (Susan […]
