My Review

Last movie of the year feature this movie featured Sarah Paulson and Jack Lemmon and I must say this was good movie with them both I am used to see Sarah on American horror story a lot and I never even know she did this one she was so young in this and beautiful as well I like her better in this one this was a tv movie her and Jack was in and this one took off.

It about 2 people meeting who was lost well he was he run away from his family and look lost so they meet whole he was walking on the road and  she almost run him over from there friendship took off as they hitchhike around the country even though bad time and good times when cops was looking for him they got though that once you watch them two characters get close to you as well both played them great in my view them 2 characters bond with me as I watched a lot though the film both have problems but they iron it out with helping with each other this movie was indeed worth watching is a good movie on how Friendship can be in times like this we need more movies like which will don't much.

So what did I think of ending no fighting well just a little bit when It was pretty much time he had to go home know that was going to happen and I know they going to throw a tearjerker at the end of film and that what they did even Made me tear up after see Sarah crying it was so good look real I Am sure some of was also music at end was great as well. this too me was Sarah Paulson and Jack lemmon best movie made in my view

in the end I see Sarah Paulson on America Horror story she not bad there but can of jump that ship a whole ago she is great acting as well only shame this was a TV movie and not a theater release it could of done great at box Office as well in my view this movie is indeed worth watching it is on YouTube for free watch it if you can before free version is up and have a great new year as well. 

Added one more thing after see this movie for first it click on me very well not many movies do that since I see the warriors (1979 for the first time.

The long way home (1998) 7/10

My review

This review is finally a movie I wanted to see this year and finally did so here my review of the movie called Red One.

Movie starts off with a kid name Jack who does not think there is a Santa so he telling kids the truth and then his uncle catches up and talk to him after that it goes 30 years later he seems to be mean more like on naughty list think this guy hates Christmas he even steals kid candy so far this movie off to odd and not good start then we see the rock he playing the character of a guy who keeps a eye on Santa making sure nothing happens wait unit it does.

So opening is good on story telling us who character we see one guy hate on Christmas as he look to be a hacker and another guy keep a eye on Santa hopefully he not guy behind to get Santa doubt it they make the rock bad guy well could happen doubt it.

Santa tells callum that this is his last year after that something going down Red is missing this where he get kidnapped so Callum goes after pretty cool effects with him running after him like take rides to catch him will he fast enough to catch him but does not 24 hours red is gone and kidnapped.

So now mission has started and first person they go after is the guy on top of list of is Jack good started because he hates Santa he must now help or should they trust him is ? He could be working with ones who took red later it was revealed who the main leader is a woman who hates Santa my guess she on the naughty list.

So how are Jack and Callum getting along well ok but they do not like each other they find out it Christmas witch who has got Santa she seems very powerful seems like her mission is too make everyone hate Christmas ok that sounds can of chessy a little bit but ok.

Two big snowman attack them pretty cool looking but they find out weakness and easy took care of them. Turns out it was Santa brother who also behind it I worder who will be playing his Santa brother.

So they are now getting close to finding red but they have to go though maybe some tough bad people to get him he told him not touch anything Jack is a fool and did and got them both in trouble later on Santa brother is not human looking he more ugly and big guy lucky they got out of there thanks to Jack then Jack said witch name bad move she can hear when her name was called she left Jack a snow globe look like witch plan is too put every one in a snow globe and bad news Jack and her son are trapped as well pretty much up to Callum now to stop her.

So I am like this movie so far as it getting close to end here have to say not bad but not best pretty good action film and Christmas movie.

So final battle leads up to all of them vs Christmas witch and her guards to save Christmas before she get all globes around the world she does fall of edge but it made her made now they must face her other side which is scary pretty good battle not bad it was no surprise who show up and help them now they better hurry as Christmas is getting close since Jack and his son help guess that means they off bad list and now on good list.

So how does it end well a great way the way I ended not a bad ending at all very good movie it was.

A few up and downs but I did like this one acting was good lots of fun stuff and ugly witch as well and this sort of proves the true meaning of Christmas as well I think if you have not see this one do so as well because you might like it as I did.

Red one (2024) rating 7/10
