Action Flick Chick | February 16, 2010

wolfman-deltoro-full

Manspeak! Whoo hooo, I love it! The Wolfman gave us another great example of the kind of manly conversations we saw in Pale Rider. Toward the beginning of the film, Lawrence’s (Benicio Del Toro) father (Anthony Hopkins) saves him from being captured and experimented on. After scaring off Lawrence’s would-be captors, dear old daddy looks [...]

I am very particular about my war films, and The Hurt Locker did it right.

Kevin Pereira Can’t Read: What Is an “Action Chick Flick”?

Llama Mama | September 19, 2009

Attack of the Show! host Kevin Pereira

“Either Kevin’s Teleprompter Read ‘Action Chick Flick’ Instead of ‘Action Flick Chick’ or AOTS Host Kevin Pereira Made a Simple Mistake the First Time He Mentioned the Action Flick Chick’” would have made for a post title that was both unwieldy and wishy-washy.
Right after Kevin Pereira’s obscene microphone gag (pun intended – if you know the “gag”) [...]

Nein, Nein, Nein! Quit the yackin’ and get to the action! Uggg. For a movie about Nazis and WWII, Inglourious Basterds sure didn’t have much action going on. There was an interesting story though.

Gran Torino is a horrible action movie and that’s why it is classified as a drama. As a drama, it’s pretty good. Clint Eastwood is back and up to the same old terrifying everyone he comes into contact with and being intimidating routine. He is just hella good at that.

I have finally figured out, after three Rambo movies, why Richard Crenna is in all of them. He is Rambo’s hype man.

First Blood (Rambo I)

AFC 1 kaboom out of 5

FB pt I is good in its own ways, yet, a completely different movie from the rest of them. It forms the foundation for the rest of the Rambo movies to build upon.
