Superman: The movie (1978) Dir: Richard Donner

Universal Soldier is a 1992 American military science-fiction action film directed by Roland Emmerich, produced by Allen Shapiro, Craig Baumgarten, and Joel B. Michaels, and written by Richard Rothstein, Christopher Leitch, and Dean Devlin.

The film tells the story of Luc Deveraux, portrayed by Jean-Claude Van Damme, a former U.S. Army soldier killed in the Vietnam War in 1969, and returned to life following a secret military project called the "Universal Soldier" program.

However, he finds out about his past, though his memory was erased, and escapes with a young TV journalist (Ally Walker). Along the way, they have to deal with the return of his archenemy, Sergeant Andrew Scott (Dolph Lundgren), who had lost his sanity in the Vietnam War, and became a mentally unwell megalomaniac, intent on killing him and leading the Universal Soldiers.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988)

dir. Stephen Chiodo

I've known this movie for many years but never have a chance to watch it. Yesterday I saw this movie for the first time on Blu-Ray. I watched the uncut version and I enjoy it a lot way more than I expected because many of the movies that are based on video games are not that good but this one is different. I like the plot about a mission to the assassination Russian politician but it goes wrong and turns to hunting and chasing him throughout the film and so surprises the twist at the end of the movie. The action scenes are so entertaining especially the shootout scenes and hand to hand fights. Timothy Olyphant is so cool in this role. He looks like a real hitman. The girl is very hot too.

I watched this movie so many times when I was around 16-17. It was a super fun and very entertaining movie from start to finish without boring scenes. I think this one is nearly as good as the original movie but the ending scene was not that great. I prefer the alternate ending. Bruce Willis had a great chemistry with Samuel L. Jackson. Both were so hilarious in this movie. I really like the plot too. Jeremy Irons was great as Simon Gruber. He is my second favourite villain of the franchise. His plan is to steal the gold from the wall street is brilliant and I like all those puzzle games that he forced John McClane to play with him.

I never understand why so many people hate this movie. One thing that I guess because it is a direct sequel to Casino Royale and that movie is outstanding. Quantum Of Solace is a very short movie about 1 hour and 46 minutes long. I hope it was gonna be longer than that because I think a few parts of this movie still left the question to the audience and never explained. The production had a big problem because the writer strikes.

Daniel Craig and the director Marc Foster had to rewrote the scene during the movie shooting. I think it's a very unique Bond movie with a great plot. I don't think it's considered the worst Bond film ever made like some people said. I prefer this one to Spectre and No Time To Die. I know this movie is not as good as Casino Royale and Skyfall but it's not bad at all.

The story about the Quantum organisation that wants to take control of the third world environment and make the profit from it that is interesting and related to the real world. I think Dominic Greene is a good villain.

The action scenes are so entertaining and very brutal especially the car chase scene in the beginning and the hand to hand combat fight scenes. The movie moves fast and never stops. I think it's a very underrated Bond film. I really like the Bond girl in this movie (forgot her name) her character is not a type of Bond girl in other movies. She does not show her body or wanna be sexy. She has a mission to do. She is so strong and never slept with Bond and I like that.

It came out two years after Ong Bak (The Thai warrior) which is a very successful Thai action film that goes worldwide. Later on the director of The Raid films said he had inspiration from both Ong Bak and The Protector.

I remembered when The Protector came out many people including myself were very excited. It's made by the same crew from Ong Bak. The story is very simple but it shows a real Thai culture about elephants and Thai local people. The plot is about a Thai young man who grew up with elephants and has a relationship like there is a part of his family and one day two elephants that he owns have been taken by the Chinese crime organisation to Australia for some reasons and he goes after them in Australia to find and bring back his elephants.

I really enjoy the action scenes especially all the hand to hand combat fights in this movie. No wires, no CGI and all stunts Tony Jaa did it by himself. IMO, The action scenes are bigger and better than Ong Bak but Ong Bak is a more popular movie for some reasons.

Ambulance is a 2022 American action thriller film directed by Michael Bay.

It is a remake of the 2005 Danish film. It stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as adoptive brothers who hijack an ambulance after robbing a bank and take a paramedic (Eiza González) and an injured police officer (Jackson White) hostage.

The film was first announced in 2015 and went through several crew changes. In 2020, Bay came on board to direct after the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted his plans to shoot a different film. Filming took place in Los Angeles, in the midst of the pandemic, with cinematographer Roberto De Angelis. The score was composed by Lorne Balfe.
