Look it is Amber Heard's favourite film: briefly; we have strange goings-on with the teenagers of town called Springwood in Ohio as they keep getting killed by this strange entity. Nancy Thompson and Rod Lane [Heather Langenkamp & Johnny Depp:] they are girlfriend or boyfriend and they both attend Springwood High School and to survive all they have to do is don't go to sleep.

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing of this 91 minutes film is good, I should just say that the background music is very much done in the old-style of background music/mood setting, which if you are from the 70's, 80's or early to mid 1990's you know precisely what I mean; I don't mind any of this in fact it is very much dying or dead art form in my opinion.

Character developments, performance of our entity, action and art; look I may as well just come out and say it from the very beginning and no this is no way shape or form a criticism of this film, but our entity for this franchise really does come into his own after this first instalment [so after this instalment I will be referring to him as his real name and performer; as long as the original performer stays under the hat; from the very beginning until he hands over the hat and man-made sharp claws; he makes his character is very own and consequently legendary,] but for here and now we are just scratching the surface; even though as a first run out he establishes himself as someone that means business and will stop at nothing to achieve his ambitions and whomever came up with the limited visual identification perspective; meaning using darkness or showing off a little bit here and there is/was an excellent move; because it puts across that night, shadows and dreams are his strongest allies; from the perspective of you will find him waiting or lurking in the darkness; with his man-made sharp claws

So the background and ideology of this legendary character and performer is amazing, hey what can I say I really like legendary horror characters with a rich background and ideology in this case simply put; he is back for revenge and his playground is in the dreams of teenagers where anything is possible such dragging them down for remains to be shot out like Niagara Falls; it is a highly imaginative sequence of events.

Character developments, performances and comedy; predominantly first of all; they are on both counts good versions of what they are meant to be. But now want to Heather Langenkamp as Nancy Thompson; she is obviously afraid of what or who is coming or her or any other teenager, but she wants to deal with it. So this is a excellent performance from her to try and push back from this likewise excellent performance from this entity. Because if we didn't have this excellent back and forth; this first film would have felt flat on its face, because as it is the first instalment nothing has been established yet so this back and forth was vital to success of this film title and this film is not a comedy; but when Nancy asks Rod to do just one thing and let's just say he fails, this is the only comedy moment.

This film receives: 10/10, this film is top-notch entertainment; especially as I got the opportunity to seeing this film at my local cinema on a big-screen, with that person I watch some of this content with never seen an instalment from this franchise ever before. This is one of those films that you need to see once in a lifetime and if you're wondering, the person I want some of this content with has declined to watch the sequel, in her words roughly/paraphrasing: I can say I have seen one and it was weird. This film has some awards to its name such as 6 Awards that includes Avoriaz Fantastic Film Festival 1985 Special Mention Heather Langenkamp For the acting and at the same award ceremony/event Critics Award Wes Craven [on a quick side note; writer/director of this film.] 7 Nominees that includes Young Artist Awards 1985 Young Artist Award Best Young Actress in a Motion Picture - Musical, Comedy, Adventure or Drama Heather Langenkamp and from the same award ceremony/event Best Young Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture Musical, Comedy, Adventure or Drama Johnny Depp.

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/bodily functions

Take a Look Around; by Limp Bizkit: briefly; this music video goes on for roughly 5 minutes and Limp Bizkit have been given his mission to; go into this diner and their mission is to take possession of this disc which is in his briefcase and give it to them.

The storyboard is essentially split into 3 sections; this mission, the band on this track and scenes; on a rotation/split-screen: this seems like a good point to point out the Director for this video is Fred Durst: the front man/vocalist for Limp Bizkit: is front and centre of this link at the top of this content.

Comedy, action, character developments and performances; with have Wes Borland [lead guitarist for Limp Bizkit: he is the uniquely dressed individual in the link above] dressing up as a waitress and breaking-the-fourth-wall: looking at the camera giving the impression of I look meh, but this is not the only time they use this outlay of comedy; Borland does it again but this time around to simply indicate this food smells evil and a little time later this agent has to run to the bathroom with this briefcase; Durst like the rest of the band is dressed up to fit into this location waits against this wall for this agent to come through this gangway so that Durst can drop plates and things like this on him within this bowl; they have a scuffle/tassle everything gets chaotic this briefcase accidentally opens this disc end up in the division of at first glance from Durst's mindset this disc end up in the position of another criminal, but at the second glance it is the manager of establishment handing Durst telephone with another message, so for the character developments and performances they are both good; I don't know what else to say here really, they had a clear idea of what they were going for and achieve that.

This film receives: 8/10, this is excellent; I decided to award another mark, based on at the time of 2000 this song was a smash hit mainly across Europe reaching number 1 in Iceland and Portugal and reaching single digits in this region of the world as well, alongside I Disappear by Metallica really did take the Mission Impossible from the 1990's into the 2000's to say that as a franchise we are re-galvanised and we have plenty more mileage in the tank. Now you will find this underneath Mission Impossible II 2000 and not this music video/song, but as it is related to this music video I have no choice but to put it here; this film has 1 Negative award accredited to its name; The Stinkers Bad Movie Awards 2000 Stinker Award Worst Song or Song Performance in a Film or Its End Credits Limp Bizkit "Take a Look Around"

I am going to dedicate this content to Sam Rivers: the bassist for Limp Bizkit that sadly is no longer with us as he passed on Saturday 18/10/2025 aged just 48 years old; RIP Sam Rivers 1977-2025.

Two legends from two different worlds team up: briefly; Inspector Eddie Yang [Jackie Chan:] he works for Hong Kong police, Interpol Inspector Arthur Watson [Lee Evans:] he works for Interpol; these two were working partners and Inspector Nicole James [Claire Forlani:] she also works for Interpol and has a little history with Inspector Yang: as they are working together to take down this criminal and save this child before it is too late.

Generally speaking: this film is incredibly goofy, but somewhat entertaining you just have to go with the flow, the framework and pacing of this 88 minutes film is good: But I should also point out it does have that 1999 to early 2000's film making style and presentation.

Action, comedy and art; the action is a mixture between  guns and being unsure/clumsy or something to that effect, with Evans going into this location and doing is comedic best to make his character gives off the impression he knows what he is doing, but also giving off the impression you wonder how he got this far in his career as he doesn't exactly fill you full of confidence he has this in hand [basically if you are familiar with Evans stand up; you know that this kind of material he does with great ease, confidently and making it look incredibly natural,] meanwhile martial arts and special powers; yes we have Chan doing his martial arts thing with later on including special powers as much later we have this action sequence take place in a location that is a hot homage or based on the painting of Relativity [M. C. Escher: December 1953: Basic description if you don't know is; this location that has many different staircases leading off into many different doors: for those slightly younger people I know, because I have just done some research on it that The Simpsons adapted it in Season 6: calling it: M.C. Escher couch gag.] Now unfortunately I had to point out that at some point throughout this project there are green screen-effect issues or/and other visual/technical issues, and I don't have to do really point out, because that is how obvious they are, I just have to acknowledge them.

Character developments and performances; by in large on both counts they are good versions of what they are meant to be, but there is one thing I cannot overlook and that is without giving too much away, but enough to make my point; what is/was the back story on Charlotte Watson [Christy Chung:] she is Arthur Watson's wife that has for some reason a certain skill level and knowledge

This film receives: 6/10, this film is good; I know it has its problems but at its heart is harmless if just incredibly goofy in one way or another, there is a blooper extra scene in the ending credits and yes this film does have some awards accredited to its name; 2 Nominees; Hong Kong Film Awards 2004 Hong Kong Film Award Best Action Choreography Sammo Kam-Bo Hung and Best Visual Effects Paddy Eason Merrin Jensen Lars Johansson Matthew Gidney

Real Talking Time:

Let's be completely real shall we?: I didn't see this coming, but in the same token something had to change on any level, because this has been a complete and utter manure show literally from the start and quite frankly I don't care if it is the BBC or/and Disney, both of you separately or together have tried this social politics inclusion steaming manure and guess what it hasn't worked so as the young kids say today you go woke you go broke.

As I have said throughout the years at some point or another in different ways instead of ramming the ideology down your consumers throats, you should have been wise enough to do multilayer scripts, character developments and anything else you can think of to avoid putting one section of your audience above another, but no you had to be lazy and take the very easily option of targeted viewing audiences which is fudgin' stupid, because hypothetically speaking at best you will achieve hitting your target audience... good for you, but the obvious downside is retaining your very specific audience so good luck with that as eventually it is doomed to fail.

But here is the absolutely hilarious thing about this whole entire woke TV generation, for a couple of examples; the Star Trek universe [I am going to give myself a cut off point of Enterprise/Star Trek: Enterprise, Star Wars universe [before Disney,] Legends of Tomorrow/DC's Legends of Tomorrow and even Doctor Who [also before Disney:] their entire ethos was and is regardless of different backgrounds to make allies/inclusion whenever possible, so my point being is if you don't understand me allow me to make it crystal clear for you is; they would discuss difficult subjects and play out these subjects, whilst keeping the plates spinning of different things happening possibly at the same time or simultaneously on top at that time, so it allows your audience to learn of their own doing and more importantly it gives you a wider selection of audience types, so in short why hasn't anyone looked at minimum at the recent past and said why don't we adapt that script method that seems to have got a positive reaction broadly speaking.

Because as things are if BBC or/and Doctor Who don't learn from its recent past then they are doomed to repeat it, time after time regardless of what gender picks up the mantle of Doctor Who, so yes I will be watching it when it comes back, but as it relates to the connecting content section it is easy to pick up on the fact I am losing patience with Doctor Who.

Warning/Just a heads up: there will be censored adult language and I think that this event is mostly horse manure, it is just a glorified house show

Jade Cargill vs. Champ Tiffany Stratton; Singles Match for the WWE Women's Championship: my pick is Tiffany Stratton. This just feels like a feud/storyline building exercise, in short the next time these two tangle I wouldn't be too surprised if there was a new champion here.

Drew McIntyre vs. Champ King Rhodes; Singles Match for the Undisputed WWE Championship: my pick is King Rhodes. I would be more engaged in this match slot, but sadly we know that McIntyre is just here to take the loss, so it very much takes the shine of this match. Look I am not going to lie I very much kept this paragraph from WWE Wrestlepalooza 2025.

Penta vs. Rusev vs. Champ The Judgement Day's: Dominik Mysterio; Triple Threat Match for the WWE Intercontinental Championship: my pick is Dominik Mysterio. Now I would genuinely be more engaged about this match slot i if they actually built up these two contenders properly to actually and realistically take this championship away from this current champion in Mysterio.

CM Punk vs. Jey Uso; Singles match for the vacant WWE World Heavyweight Championship: my pick is CM Punk. I have seen enough to suggest they are going through possibly re-run this feud between the two twin brothers again, which obviously I hope I am wrong, god I hope I am wrong it sucked the first time around, so what makes them think the second time is going to be any better.

I don't see any issue here: he is from Puerto Rico, USA. So anyone that has a problem with this; it is more than likely racially motivated, so get over it and the last time I looked Puerto Rico is a part of the United States of America so end of story. I mean even if it wasn't and he was just and international music musician I mean this nicely but when this event rolls around who cares? It is 2026 and providing an individual doesn't do anything too bad, we can overlook it I mean it is a bit rich coming from President orange skid mark where at one point he had 34 felonies against him and should be serving time in prison, yet for some strange reason is fully able to sit in the White House.

So for me this entire situation of outrage or apparent outrage can be easily summed up by; there is nothing to see here folks, it is just an Orange guy being racial in my opinion and it is hardly news, but as I follow and watch the NFL and wrestling I was thinking I would take some time to briefly/quickly discuss it.

Real Talking Time:

This is a shame: as it was amusing, I have seen every single episode of this TV program, I do wish they gave it one more season of 8 episodes just to finish things off as they have left things open for back then a possibility of a third series, obviously based on current information this is no longer going to happen.

But unfortunately I now have to be very real, the fact is based on viewing experiences the second series was noticeably not as strong as the first series, even though I am not going to see Arnold Schwarzenegger as Luke Brunner, based on again current information, I have been around long enough to know after everything is said and done be you any film or in this case a TV program; this industry is a business first of all and even though I would still like a third series to end things properly, business comes first: yes what with the comedy, action and highly engageble characters so on and so forth etc.

You can't make people sit down and watch your project/product, so based on  this I can see possibly why they have taken the option to cancel this project and possibly put that level of investment into other projects instead, I mean if you haven't seen it yet and/or looking for something to watch and providing you have this subscription service, I would say take a look at it and I wouldn't tell you how to take this project, but if you don't take things too seriously then you will get along with this project much better, but to finish off this content; am I disappointed with this turn of events; yes. Could I see this option being taken now it is happened?; Unfortunately yes it just felt that may be halfway through the second series things were beginning to run out of steam noticeably: it was still good, but it has lost some of its free-flowing nature on all aspects, I would have still liked to a complete conclusion nonetheless, but then again as I have already illustrated it is a business first and always and enjoyment is secondary, I just now have to go and tell the person I watch some of this content with the bad news about this TV program.

I am coming for revenge: briefly; Paul Maguire [Younger: Weston Cage/Older: Nicholas Cage: yes they related as father and son or in this case son and father:] he was a criminal when he was younger, but after making in your life he is in the world of property development somehow. But he is forced to go back into his old life after something goes wrong, he is now seeking revenge. Detective Peter St. John [Danny Glover:] he and Paul go way back and wants Paul to stay out of it and let the police handle it.

Generally speaking: the storyline/script goes full circle and I gradually lost interest in it and I am sure I am not the only one as I watched this film with the person I watch someone's content with I think they gradually lost interest also and now having looked at some length just being 94 minutes which is hard to believe considering this film feels more closer to 120 minutes long, so by this you can assume that based on my viewing experience this film is feels slow

Action and comedy; the action throughout this project is somewhat graphic, with the usage of guns and etc; we have these two characters trying to get information out of this individual with torturing his girlfriend which let's just say this individual has a history of using drugs and possibly so high right now she is a don't know what is happening; but after this sequence we have these two individuals talking about this previous method of torture were one basically indicates the other hand I am paraphrasing here roughly; I thought she was going to go out of the window.

Character developments and performances; the character developments are reliable versions of what they are meant to be, but the execution of what should be relatively easy character developments to execute at best they are okay and at worst they are really poor; it just depends where you are really in this project, sometimes you may say to yourself they are what they are just solid versions of what they wanted, yet other times you'll think maybe not.

This film receives: 1/10, this film is poor; this is one of those film titles that will tedious you well past the point of actually caring about it, meaning in a nutshell is that poor that you don't care about whatever happens in it, yes in the first closing credits there is this ending sequence, yet somehow this project has a positive nominations to its name;1 Nominee ASECAN 2015 ASECAN Award Best Director Paco Cabezas

Uncle Dr. Zachary "Zach" Darrett: Character [Character developments] and Storyline; he is a wheelchair user, engineer and runner of Pole Position, basically he gives out these cases or missions; such as today's episode is; go to the aid of this individual and help him anywhere you can as he is just creative this vaccine.

Parachutes: Action and Art; we have a selection of characters jumping out of a plane, but it is lucky that someone presses the right button at the right time to release these parachutes to land in this watery landscape and then quickly get out: this is a very eye-catching sequence of events with excellent creativity and vision to bring it to life.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; as it just keeps things rolling along nicely

Shaft 1971 by AverageMansReviews

Review Time

Warning: there is shooting/medical/reference to racism and drugs

Shaft works for a mobster: briefly; Private Detective John Shaft [Richard Roundtree:] he is a no nonsense private detective that gets things done, Bumpy Jonas [Moses Gunn:] he is high ranking mobster that there isn't much he doesn't know what goes on around Harlem, but he needs Private Detective Shaft to get his family member back.

Generally speaking: the script is solid, the framework and pacing of this 100 minute film is poor for most part good as it knows what it is doing and just get on with it, but I would say the last 20 minutes are agonisingly slow, to the point where I was falling asleep.

Comedy and action; there is some level of comedy in this title, but let's just say I can't make reference to it or censor it, because for someone with my complexion it would still come out and intensely and inadvertently somewhat racial Shaft and other African-American characters/performers can say this stuff but I can't. There is one comedy piece I can make reference to; and it is where Shaft briefly acts as a bartender where he gives free drinks: he makes a phone call to arrange for some police officers to come down to the bar and pick up these two individuals that he is communicating with as these two individuals are keeping an eye on his apartment from across the street, they clearly don't know what he looks like. So Shaft eventually drops the act, letting these two individuals his identity and pulls out a gun from underneath the bar and then these boys in blue come in and take them down town for questioning.

Character developments and performances; well on both counts they are good including chemistry throughout the cast, but it has to be said that Richard Roundtree as John Shaft, Moses Gunn as Bumpy Jonas, Drew Bundini Brown as Willy: he is the right-hand man to Jonah and Charles Cioffi as Lieutenant Vic Androzzi: he has a working relationship with Shaft and understands, by having a working relationship with Shaft what he is trying to achieve and he is the one that Shaft telephone calls for assistance. But between this for characters/performers endeavour to keep this film motoring forward and a special mention has to go out to Ron Tannas as Billy: Shaft gets him to do a favour and we hear a sex joke throw the confusion and Rex Robbins as Rollie: he is the gay bartender that for $20 allows Shaft to be the bartender for a while: these two individuals to provide bright moments when they are on-screen.

This film receives: 6/10, this film is good; even though I have been moderately praising this project, I would have given something slightly higher if it wasn't because on the last 20 minutes, so it is very match depending on if you like old school action film title really is depending if you want to see this film or not? There is some extra goings-on the closing credits and yes this film does have some awards accredited to its name; 6 Winners which include but not limited to Academy Awards, USA 1972 Oscar Best Music, Original Song Isaac Hayes For the song "Theme from Shaft" and MTV Movie + TV Awards 1994 MTV Movie Award Lifetime Achievement Richard Roundtree For the whole film series including as well Shaft's Big Score!

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/vehicle hit/vehicle crash/environmental

What was that?: Briefly; Roy Neary [Richard Dreyfuss:] he is an an electrical lineman with a wife and kids that experiences this encounter and is desperate to find the answers.

Generally speaking: the storyline/script, framework and pacing of this 135 minutes film [depending on which version you have;] is I have to be honest a bit on the boring and tedious side of things; to the point where towards roughly the three-quarter stage I momentarily fell asleep.

Action, art and character developments; now let's fast-forward to roughly around the final quarter of this project; we have Roy and Jillian Guiler [Melanie Dillon:] she has also experienced an encounter and has a child; they climb up to this location to get a better look. The artistry on reflection [because like I have already illustrated I may not have been fully aware to appreciate it at the time:] it is well thought out and well constructed with its lively colourful palette, the way that they communicate with one another is interesting to say at the very least.

Character developments and performances; both I have to say are okay, but I didn't get or like this kind of student exchange program thing going on and on top of that I like how Roy completely forgot of his parent responsibilities.

This film receives: 5/10, this film is mixed; after everything is said and done, this mark looks and feels the right outcome, don't get me wrong if you are into your science fiction film titles, then give this film a look some time, but then again I would just keep in mind what I have said about it and this film also does have an ongoing sequence in the first closing credits. This film does have some awards accredited to its name 16 Best Cinematography ilmos Zsigmond inners; which include but not limited to  Academy Awards, USA 1987 Oscars pecial Achievement Award Frank E.

Review Time

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/shooting/stabbing/cutting/suicide/vehicle crashing/medical

Who am I?: Basically sometime later; we find out that his name is Jason Bourne/other names [Matt Damon:] an individual that is found floating in the Mediterranean Sea and has no idea why as he suffers from amnesia, but he quickly finds out that some people are trying to kill him, but because of the amnesia he has no idea why either.

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing of this 119 minutes film is good; it follows the outlay of espionage [I will discuss this more later on] so it does have a change of pace when it is time to smoothly switch over in to an action sequence, but it can also switch back to espionage to also progress the film, but regardless it always feels like it is always moving.

Action, art and comedy; as you can pretty much guess the action is chaotic, but also beautifully designed to be that way be it; Bourne climbing down this location to escape using the most smallest of touches/what is available to grab hold of on this location to then land safely on the floor to pick up this bag or/and this enthusiastic and obviously chaotic, but sprinkled with comedy as this is new to someone we have just met [I would bring about more up later as well] or Bourne not waiting for the same individual to try and find the key to this location he just uses his foot to break open the door as you do.

Character developments and performances; broadly speaking on both counts they are all good; you know they follow their character types and their performances reflect those character types to a reliably good standard. But let's move on; we have Matt Damon as Jason Bourne/other names: let's be honest he is Jason Bourne as we have this whole discovery/jigsaw puzzle thing going on amongst the chaos; Bourne on his own or with Franka Potente as Marie Kreutz: an individual that is going through a difficult time, but Bourne offers her $20,000, half now and halve when they reach their destination, in this old-fashioned mini, so she obviously accepts; their chemistry is fluently on point as on one hand we have Bourne going through what he is going through of having amnesia and not forgetting the chaos and Kreutz what she is going through, wondering what the hell has she got herself into and the chaos; excellent partnership here.

This film receives: 8/10, this film is excellent; as I have already referenced it does what it is designed to do and that is laid down the foundations for this franchise to be built upon in the future. This film also has some awards accredited to its name such as 3 Winners that includes but not limited to ASCAP Film and Television Music Awards 2003 ASCAP Award Top Box Office Films John Powell and 6 Nominees which also include but not limited to Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Films, USA 2003 Saturn Award Best Action/Adventure/Thriller Film.

Je'Von Evans & Leon Slater vs. Mr. Iguana [with La Yesca] & La Parka; Tag Team Match: my pick is Je'Von Evans & Leon Slater. I'm guessing here that this is a new tag team and for there they want to begin off on the right foot.

DarkState's: Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Saquon Shugars and/or Osiris Griffin vs. Champs/TNA World Tag Team Champs The Broken Hardys: Brother Nero & Broken Matt Hardy; Broken Rules Match for the NXT Tag Team Championship: my pick is  DarkState's: Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Saquon Shugars and/or Osiris Griffin. I really don't like this match, simply because it is heavily in favour of the Hardy's, including the stipulation it could only indicate these championships are being dropped here, so the Hardy's are basically transitional champion's here, but did we really have to do call upon the alternative egos from the Broken Universe to misdirect your audiences and including the stipulation which means any other member of DarkState can and will interfere so these champions are somewhat protected by this loss here based on that.

The Culling's: Tatum Paxley [with Izzi Dame] vs. Champ Fatal Influence's: Jacy Jayne [with Fallon Henley & Lainey Reid;] Singles Match for the NXT Championship: my pick is Tatum Paxley. I think it is time for a change as this particular champion has been reigning for comfortably over 140 days+

El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. vs. Champ Ethan Page; Day of the Dead Match for the NXT North American Championship: my pick is Ethan Page. I have no doubt that this match/match slot will be good, but at the same time I can't see this championship going anywhere.

Blake Munroe vs. Surrogate Champ Zaria [with the WWE Women's Speed Champion/NXT Women's Champion Sol Ruca; she is unable to compete due to injury;] Singles match for the NXT Women's North American Championship: my pick is Blake Munroe. Now I did originally say the they wouldn't split up this team until NXT Stand & Deliverer 2026 [ in the related content section.] But in fairness to myself this with the for the injury, so I can see them now doing this slow friction and being let down and so on and so forth until Zaria causes Ruca to lose both of her Championships then go full heel, saying I deliberately lost your Championships.

Trick Williams vs. Champ Ricky Saints; Singles Match for the NXT Championship: my pick is Ricky Saints. Likewise this match should be good, but this championship isn't going anywhere.

I called it: like I said in the related content the first link I hope I will be wrong, but it turns out I was so right, you just scrub Jada's achievement from your record books how classy of you. Yes I know records are there to be beaten, but it does seem based on my opinion and can also be deemed as speculation, but then again reasonable speculation, that after a short time after Cargill leaves, they conveniently find somebody to break her record of 508 days as AEW TBS Champion. So if anyone now decides to criticise AEW for essentially doing a very WWE thing, I couldn't blame them, because everyone knows the WWE would have pulled the same kind of garbage:MonéIs currently standing at roughly speaking over 511+ days as this AEW TBS Champion.

For this entire belt collecting thing I get what they are doing with essentially promoting these lesser-known promotions by allowing Moné to become their champion, basically it is a business, business, business thing, but and I get it; it is a heel thing; but do we have to call her Último Moné? Because like I have literally just said I get it, because yes she has broken his belt collecting record, this was 10 and hers it is currently standing at 11 as of this content being first created. But the fact is he is one of the best wrestlers ever to lace up a pair of boots; just watch him and Rey Mysterio Jr. [at the time: nowadays Rey Mysterio] wrestling or including other competitors: that was poetry in motion, I mean if I did remotely care about her this would most definitely be on the grounds of go away heat and as you can see from the second link as it relates to the release content, I make my opinions on Moné Being called a G.O.A.T crystal clear

Warning: there is flashing effects/vehicle hit/references to homosexuality, terrorism and torture

I have 4 weeks to get this book published: briefly; we meet this individual named individual that gets the character name of The Ghost [Ewan McGregor:] he has been sent by Rhinehart, Inc. to get this autobiography of Adam Lang [Pierce Brosnan:] he is an ex-British Prime Minister, he also has a wife her name is Ruth Lang [Olivia Williams:] she is a strong lady that knows and mine, but the more our Ghost undercovers, the more questions reveal themselves

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing of this 128 minutes film tiresome and shortly becomes tedious as for the vast majority of the time it has one particular flow which is slow and steady, which I know what they were trying to do, they were trying to create an intense investigating kind of atmosphere to run this film off most of the time, but it fell flat and I will be bringing up elements of this section again later on in this content.

Art and action; the art itself is smart and well presented to indicate that someone from the present or the past politics hotseat in this case a British Prime Minister is still in that world; in fact inadvertently or not it does an excellent job of highlighting that they are very much not in touch with the common person regardless of party or/and gender and for the action it is predominantly finding clues or/and information or the chasing sequence which is solidly good.

Character developments and performances; the character developments are very much what you come to expect with this political/mystery type of film, so on one hand they fulfil those character types with ease and comfort, but like I said from earlier mixed with the framework and pacing and these character developments and performances which are solid versions of what they are meant to be by design but also consequently tiresome and tedious as things are.

This film receives: 2/10, this film is poor; I just found it incredibly tedious and the person that I watch some of the content with also said it was I am paraphrasing here boring, yet it has so many awards accredited to its name such as; 34 Winners that include but not limited to positive; London Critics Circle Film Awards 2011 ALFS Award British Supporting Actress of the Year Olivia Williams, 57 Nominees which also include positive; Evening Standard British Film Awards 2011 Evening Standard British Film Award Best Actress Olivia Williams and 1 negative Winner Women Film Critics Circle Awards 2010 WFCC Award Hall of Shame "At large Polanski sets up Olivia Williams' Lady Macbeth spouse as not only the instigator of UK's collusion in Iraq, letting Blair off the hook. But the predatory extreme seductress aggressor nearly rapes the gullible Ghost as well, when cornering him in his tub with an offer of towels to dry his tush. The Female Made Me Do It defense."
