My Review



Growing up I remember watching this movie years ago some so this first time in years I see this and figure I will review it as well so here the next review of Dick Tracy from 1990 due note as well have not read the comics maybe some day.



Some of characters look pretty good for this movie very good makeup as well the plot of story is good also this movie was direct by Warren Beatty himself which is cool the movie is pretty much Tracy going after big Boy then later on he does meet a kid who name is kid for now better get him a name and soon calling him kid for sounds fair I guess.



For acting Al Pacino fits role of big boy well he was in godfather this kind of movie does fit him as main Villain of the movie he was great in this he sure did give Tracy a run for his money in this with the tricks he had indeed was plan good or bad.



Madonna was in this as well what is role in this when I first see one of the dancing girls but she try to Seduce Tracy many times in hot steam way but Tracy has a girlfriend name Tess so he has to be careful this is not much of romance movie but does have some with Tracy Tess Relationship is test some I think she was worried about him being a Cop don’t mind that too much Madonna and the lady who played Tess did a great job for acting as well in this one.



And also there is odd Character with a mask on or someone who no face Makes a appearance many times who is person not sure but find it a Interesting mystery character of the movie which was reveal in ended and trust me this was one heck of twist sad ending though but added to story as well done in my view.



Later on the kid picks a name and his picks dick Tracy Jr name a nice name there kid and later on it was not looking good for Tracy but he best them tough moments and is now after big boy who has Tess now so we got final battle going down between big boy and Tracy at end was good battle though mystery person did so up and help some enough for Tracy to beat big boy so at the end he was going to ask his girlfriend to marry but had to go but I think they did get married after that as movie ended probably one of best comic movies that close I. My view.



Oh my gosh what a great movie Costumes look great singer from Madonna as well trust me she does has a big part of movie then dancing and singer you will find that out great acting from everybody you had a great lineup that made this movie fun to watch Al Pacino as bad guy worked Warren Beatty who also played dick Tracy Madonna as well and very pretty Glenne Headly who passed away in 2017 she was beautiful in this and she is indeed miss as well this movie for years to come will age good in as years go by in the future and it is still my favorite movie today and it very close to comics as well if your a fan of dick Tracy comics and have not see this movie do so because it fun action pack movie to enjoy.




I give Dick Tracy (1990) a rating of 8.5/10 for great.

My Review


Not a bad mystery movie or crime movie you got a young Angela Lansbury as well playing house Maid most of time who went on years later to Star in another crime tv show Murder she wrote great acting from so plot was from what I see husband trying to drive his wife nuts so he can find out secret about the house that probably was about her husband was crazy with the way he acted he did everything but in the end back fire on him in the end I will saying the acting pretty good as well some say this was horror movie but did not see that all felt like more of mystery or crime movie maybe it was horror not sure if I see would of review that part so was not a bad ended as well that way I would end it as well.



Alright would I watch this it was ok movie not best but good plot and acting as well would I watch this again maybe if I am looking for a good mystery and crime to re- watch again I think this indeed a worth checking out if you like good movies with mystery and crime you may like it or may not.



I give Gaslight (1944) a rating of 6/10

 Starring…………. Olivier Gruner, Tim thomerson and Debera Shelton


Directed by………. Albert Pyun



Synopsis


In the year 2027, man and machine are now hybrid superhumans. A Los Angeles cop critically damaged by Terrorists hunts the Rogue cop who helped them.



Warning spoilers ahead



My Review


This another movie with Tim Thomerson in it figure I review another one of his action movies and see if I like it.



So does Tim have a big part in this or not yes he did he does some action parts of movie badass in this he played a bad guy after a machine or robot name Alex they also put a bomb in him Tim look like a men in black character type too me but think he was bad guy I never see him play a bad guy role but don’t matter he was indeed great in this one as any character.



Otherwise this was not a bad movie good action and acting and finale 20 mins was great action pack edge of your seat action what odd I see Tim turn into what look like a Terminator robot or I was wonder what will happen because Alex still has the bomb in him that will soon go off they pretty much stop it and at the end you can hear Tim and girl from start say should we take them out not and you can hear Tim say why not does this prove it is not over that would of been nice for next movie which was never made not a bad movie.



There was some nudity but the ok the start we got a badass women who almost kill him but after that she was not see again thought she be Main character guess not and I thought Tim would be good guy in this was wrong but again good or bad character he is pretty cool at action movies characters and stuff good movie this was again with some good acting it was not bad effect was cool close calls as well would I watch this probably would because it a great movie and is a must see for fans of tim and liked great action movies this one is for you.



That it for this week movie see you next Saturday for another late night movie review.



I give Nemesis (1993) a rating of 7/10 for good

 Starring………….. Tom Berenger, Glenn Close and Jeff Goldblum



Directed by Lawrence Kasdan



Synopsis


Lawrence Kasdan directs this charmer about a group of college friends, who reunite at a South Carolina beach house after one friend commits Suicide.



Warning Spoilers ahead



My Review



Well this one is another movie from 80’s about a group of friends from college who was friends reunite because one of friends name Alex commits suicide that how it started yeah would of like it too start off on who Alex was and maybe some Scenes in college was Alex a nerdy dude or what the gang was like in college did not start off that it was gang getting phone calls as adults getting the phone call about there friend death after Funeral you wonder what next for as they stay in beach house pretty much they told each other where they been and what they been doing and they do have some fun times but you got to wonder why Alex killed himself they do talk about him they get into a huge fight over his death and things start picking up feelings are hurt look like things might get out of line I just hope now this close to the end does not end with them not talking to each other but then everybody Apologize and then every body started to make love not everybody but some just like love scenes then after that was I guess the last scene of the movie at breakfast where there said about leaving last lines of movie we never leaving and that it credits roll that one heck of a way to end this good movie.



Well one heck of a movie guess this was about friends reunite then Alex death there friend not even one flashback just memory’s of there friend Alex would like a little bit more on Alex character but otherwise did not damp the movie a lot acting was great there was a good lineup for acting Glenn close and Jeff Goldblum they were good in this as well plot was a little confusing because I had many questions where it was going though but it later on it did iron out and thought it was ok some drama but The Big Chill was a ok movie.



I give the Big Chill (1983) a rating of 6/10 for ok
