My Review

This is first time I see this movie in years and now I am going to review it and see if it holds up here in the future last time I see was on Disney years ago used to watch it a lot on there.

This movie is magic of 80’s the soundtrack is so good as well story is about new family moving house after there father dies one of movies trying to make it said but there also some comedy Fred savage is in as well very young as well in opening moments you can see him ride a bike trying to get around block but a bunch of bullies stop him one of bullies Is from neverending end story and he stop him from passing so funny they chase Louis all the way home keep a eye out on that later it will play out in good way.

Then later we meet Eric a deaf boy who does not like to be around people much Milly try to talk to him it work some at first but he still shy this where story takes off good slow build there that how good story’s go for writing in movies as movie goes on teases happen with Eric trying to fly as well this high points of movie as well I like how it you can see how story goes for milly and Eric does go you can see she she slowly starts to like him she also try to help him but nothing changes yet at first but later on you see Eric start to trust her more he catches a ball that was close to hitting her.

Later on she try to prove in front of everyone that he can catch a ball but for some reason he does not still shy look like but in a silly move she ask girl to hit her in the face with ball which didn’t go too well can of dumb move.

Then about later on as well she try to grab a flower that up high ends up hitting her head and falling and ends up in hospital then we get moment we been waiting he can fly that was cool moment with fireworks and they kiss in the sky was pretty cool with fireworks ibehind them but then writers try to throw us a bone that this could of been a dream as she woke up in hospital bed but as she got home the flower she try to get before falling was there but Eric was taking away so she try to visit him but was only family members can see him so that was tough moment.

There was another tough moment after Eric try to get pass bullies he failed after that something bad happen to his dog that wasn’t easy to watch either very sad moment there then during the storm she see Eric on top goes there and he was there how did get there not sure but she stay the night but bad news is cops and hospital are looking for him but then a big moment Eric fly in front of everybody it was great moment with great soundtrack the look on people face was priceless as well after he fly after that he said goodbye was a sad moment there.

Then we see Louis win the battle with some good tricks there and his dog was ok so I was wonder at end here will Eric show up sadly I was disappointed there could of told us more on where Eric went guess he didn’t want to come back a ok ended but I am sure many like me felt letdown there at that end.

So what a movie this was great acting Lucy and Jay both it was good and Fred did good as well had some music as well for soundtrack when he fly so is this still the movie I liked as a kid back in days yes but again have not see this movie in years so I forgot how it ended that why I said I hope Eric returns did not happen maybe somewhere there another ended with a happy ending not sure guess writers wanted to have us think in our minds after this does he return after it ended or not they never did a 2nd movie should of think it would of been great movie anyway will say a great movie this was for teen movie of 80’s it did have some comedy with Fred trying to get around block many many times that about it in my view for comedy anyway this is safe family movie to watch for all too if you see it hope you like it as much as I did.

Boy who could fly (1986 (6/10 for a rating.

My Review

Been waiting a while to see the new bill and Ted movie opens up with bill and Ted at missy wedding guess she getting married again it is confusing thing on who she married watch and understand it more anyway seem like they are problems with the wife’s now marry problems that is there music not going well seem so they turn to there daughters yes daughters hmm didn’t they have sons at end of last movie so can of odd doesn’t bug me though I am ok with it anyway daughters don’t give them too much hope.

Then we Introduced to Kelly Rufus daughter coming back from future to say they want to have a talk with them so they go to future guess time and space is in jeopardy so only way to fix is too them writing a song to save time and space story is interesting so now they go meet there other past and future selfs which is played by them can of goofing versions as well took up some of movie but not all of it after visiting them old selfs they find out there daughters have been sent to hell and must find a way to get them out so after talking to weird robot who losing his mind he zips them like he did to his daughters so now all of them are in hell.

Then later a familer face Grim Reaper shows up they iron out there problems and leave hell but things may get out of hand but turns out it there was a catch at end that was great will say effects of last 15 mins was good I did like it good music and effects to end the movie not a bad ending too a good movie.

Not a bad movie great to see some of cast come back too that a + there as well and it was them passing a torch to there daughters and good to see Reaper as well nice tribute to Rufus as well with his daughter in the movie being name Kelly that his real life daughter name he is indeed sadly miss that for overrate if you see all bill and Ted movies this one a little more goofing but worth the see you may not like or not up too.

Note just see a Post credit scene wasn’t much but good way to end it now question is that end of movie series or no guess we see down the line.

I give bill and ted’s face the music (2020) a rating of 7/10

What About Bob? (1991) Movie Review

 Starring………….. Bill Murray, Richard Dreyfuss and Tom Schulman

Director…………. Frank Oz

Synopsis

A successful Psychotherapist loses his mind after one of his most dependent patients, an obseeive- compulsive neurotic, tracks him down during family vacation.

Warning spoilers ahead

My Review

Next review is another one been waiting for to review is What About Bob?

What about Bob is one of most funniest movie I see with a opening of a fish on screen very cool way to open with credits as well

Bill Murray as Bob character was funny as well the opening shot where he scared of everything people touching doors pretty much everything bill did a great job in opening Scenes there then later Bob meets Leo and Leo gives him his book baby steps and then tells him he going on vacation for a month and later he calls sound bad but later talks to Leo and sounds ok so sort of bug him later he shows up to phone ladies as Cop or something and says Bob killed himself 15 mins ago he did that to get his address so he can go to see Leo.

The look of Leo face who was played by Richard Dreyfuss another great actor by the was his reaction was priceless as well as movie goes on and Bob finds out where he staying he show up a lot there and his problems start to get better and Leo gets worst he seems to hate Bob being around he gets mad every time he shows up but this why this good comedy movie both actors work well in this one and made this comedy gold for story as well because Leo gets more annoyed by him more I think that also with his family like him a lot where Jealousy and also he has a huge interview as well which goes ok but they added Bob which was not good for Leo.

So last 20 mins Things got interesting and little bit crazy as well as Leo try to get him in crazy house but that did not work so he breaks into store to get Explosions to try and blow him that was crazy seem like he the nut now because he hates Bob he ties it up on him but Bob some how got them off and put them in house and boom the house explosion plan failed as Leo went into mental coma but the movie ended with him waking up trying to stop wedding very funny ended there worder how that will work out now he part of family unsure what a funny movie this was.

Comedy gold from 90’s that for sure both actors work well together in this and the other acting from ones who played family members the son was one who played a character in dick Tracy indeed know he was as well this movie was again write well and music was even good as well it was written great as well if your bill Murray fan and have not see this one do so because it comedy gold you probably won’t see much in today era that is for and in closing this will be a great comedy movie for years and years to come.

I give what about Bob? (1991) a rating of 8/10

Dick Tracy (1990) Movie Review

 Starring……….. Warren Beatty, Al Pacino and Madonna

Directed by………… Warren Beatty

Synopsis

Based on the popular comic strip characters, Dick Tracy wages war against villain Big Boy Caprice and his ruthless cohorts in crime.

Warning spoilers ahead

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.

Warning spoilers ahead

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

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

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
