Payback (1999)
Enjoyable
Payback is a stark and gloomy darkly comic slow-paced action movie. Mel Gibson plays a clever yet stubborn man who gets beaten up troughout the movie by his former corhorts in crime who took the money they stole together. He gets beaten up because he takes things from them that are very valuable and uses them as ransom for his money. I found Payback to be somewhat enjoyable to a degree, but at times, I noticed I was suprisingly bored. The film had a great soundtrack featuring Frank Sinatra. The soundtrack oddly fit in with the movie's dark humor and copius violence commited on the unstoppable Gibson and the fight he put up against them fore a mere amount of money.
Ordinary People (1980)
Excellent movie about the emotion of the human spirit
During the first 10 minutes of this movie, I felt quite bored and thought that the movie seemed somewhat dated. Yet, as the movie progressed, I became sucked into it. The character development is superb as is the acting by Timothy Hutton. Undeniably moving and powerful, if you enjoy movie that make you think, check this one out. We are all ordinary people, no matter how crazy things look in our own eyes...
Birdy (1984)
Excellent performances abundant
Birdy is a great movie. I saw it about a year ago and I was blown away by it. Matthew Modine is excellent as the young man who comes back from Vietnam traumatized and gets sent to a mental hospital due to his attempts to fly off buildings like a bird. Nicolas Cage creates a very compelling and fascinating character also as his buddy who tries to help him. Very touching. Highly Recomended!!!!!!!
