Latest Movie: Who is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe? (1978)
Latest Movie: Who is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe? (1978)
ACTION MOVIES
American Assassin (2017) - This was much better than I expected. ⭐⭐⭐
Elysium (2013) - The dumb socialist propaganda is so heavy it overwhelms the entire movie. ⭐⭐
Sucker Punch (2011) - This movie had the potential to be great. Instead it was just ok. ⭐⭐⭐
MYSTERY MOVIES
The Girl Who Knew Too Much (1963) - An excellent Hitchcockian mystery with amazing scenery from Rome. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Iguana with the Tongue of Fire (1971) - This weak giallo is just a mishmash of genre cliches. ⭐⭐
The Strange Vice of Mrs. Wardh (1971) - A great twisty giallo with hot naked Edwige Fenech. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Who is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe? (1978) - A fun cozy mystery. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ = An All-Time Classic. Should be watched every year.
⭐⭐⭐⭐ = Highly Recommended. An excellent movie/show.
⭐⭐⭐ = Good. Worth watching once.
⭐⭐ = Blah. You can find something better to watch.
⭐ = Avoid. Don't waste your time.

Will pretty this up later. Goals are to only include flicks and TV shows that are tagged with one of the challenges official genres: Action, Adventure, Crime, or Mystery. Hope to get at least 30 titles in.
Slow start but here we go.

1. Girl in the Basement (2021) Judd Nelson literally creates a parent trap in his basement. Destined to become a minor Lifetime classic. I actually sort of wish this was pitched at a more lowbrow level. Although I do have to hand it to Lifetime, despite the lack of explicit onscreen incest, things mostly feel appropriately trashy. However, the real life circumstances that this was based on is some full hardcore tale that's almost too shocking to be real. I thought the third childbirth was far-fetched, then I read that this Austrian creep fathered six kids. My score: 7.4/10 categories: Crime

Re: 2021 Action/Adventure/Crime/Mystery Challenge List Thread
Title in BLACK = From my own personal DVD / Blu Ray collection.
Title in RED = Seen on Netflix.
MARCH 1
1. Domino (2005) Keira Knightley is a socialite who enters the world of bounty hunters. Directed by Tony Scott whose spastic camera movements and hipster editing get old after the first ten minutes. Also, for some reason, the entire movies seems tho have been shot with a yellow high-contrast filter, which again, is distracting.
2. Black Day, Blue Night (1995) I admit I bought this only because my 80s crush, Mia Sara is in it. Standard crime drama about two women who pick up a shifty hitchhiker.
3. Into the Blue 2: The Reef (2009) Like above, this I bought because the smoking hot Laure Vandervoort is in it, and in a tiny bikini for almost the entire movie! A plot very reminiscent of The Deep but with more hot babes. Spectacular underwater scenes and great visuals all-around.
4. The Driver (1978) Classic crime drama about a getaway driver, the stoic Ryan O'Neal, who's the best in the business. He's dubbed "The Cowboy" by his nemesis, cop Bruce Dern, who has a personal obsession with catching him. The beautiful Isabelle Adjani rounds things out provides an air of mystery to the proceedings. Director Walter Hill gives the car chase scenes tension and drama, making them integral to the characters. Great stuff.
MARCH 2
5. Hick (2011) More of a drama but with enough crime elements to warrant inclusion in this list. Chloe Grace Moretz is a jailbait teen who gets involved with the wrong people.
6. Gold Diggers: The Secret of Bear Mountain (1995) Not a Disney movie but it sure feels like one. Christina Ricci and Anna Chlumsky are two girls on the hunt for treasure. Family-friendly fun.
7. The Gauntlet (1977) Clint Eastwood directs himself in this exciting crime drama. A loser cop (Eastwood) must escort a witness (Sandra Locke) from Las Vegas to Phoenix to a trial but the whole thing is really a setup. Great action scenes and a full-blown over the top climax that gives the movie its title.
MARCH 3
8. In Darkness (2018) A blind woman (the gorgeous Natalie Dormer) witnesses a crime and the perpetrators must decide if she's a threat or not. Stylish and sexy with a very modern noir feel.
