Fatale...a thriller on Netflix starring Hillary Swank and Michael Ealy.
Hillary still has it.

Netflix..... Friday the 13th

Watched for the first time on Friday the 13th. Wow! This is right there in quality with the original Halloween. I can't believe I've never seen it before.

Just finished Paris, Texas.

This will stick with me for a long time. Might be a top ten. I am impressed.

Wasn't aware of this until you mentioned it, so I watched it last night. I'm a big fan of Hillary, and she was excellent. Michael Ealy will be the choice when they do a Steph Curry movie.

^^^ Have you seen The Good Mother on Netflix?

Have not, so I'll watch it. Seen The Homesman?

^^^ Yes, I did. Watching the trailer makes me want to see it again.

Loved the movie. Some pain involved for the viewer, though.

The 2023 Christmas movies on Great American Family channel begin tonight.

I watched it today, He was good in it

Just saw the Equalizer 3 movie. Typical Denzel badassery. Lots of dialogue in Italian. That is the only bad part, I do not understand Italian.

I liked The Equalizer 3 the best of the three. Interesting and (mostly) likeable townspeople. An interesting CIA woman.

They could make a franchise out of prequels if they found the right actor. Maybe Michael Jordan, or someone like him.

I am not sure about ranking the 1,2 and 3. I liked them all. Denzel is now 68 years old . He cant do this forever. Maybe a younger McCall would work. Maybe Matt Damon ?? I know, not that young .

Denzel has said the third one was his last. I rank them as 3, 1, 2 in order of preference, but that's just me. I liked them all a lot. I really liked Man on Fire, which is very similar in nature. One of my favorite Denzel Washington movies, and I like a lot of them. I used to watch the original TV series with Edward Woodward. I thought it was good at the time, but I like Denzel better, plus the action is more serious.

There's even an Equalizer TV series with Queen Latifah. It seems ridiculous, but I actually enjoyed watching it. She did a decent job.

Some prequels to the Denzel movies could be awesome, when he was at the peak of his killing skills. Along the lines of Mission: Impossible and James Bond. A CIA assassin series.

I remember liking the original series when I was a kid. I only saw one episode of the new series so I have not decided one way or another. Man on fire was was pretty good. Only Denzel movie I did not like was one where he was a lawyer. I did not hate it but just not what I expected.

I started a subscription to The Criterion Channel based on my assumption it would be a discriminating channel from what I've seen of them historically and wanting to watch On the Waterfront.

I got an email from them with some interesting suggestions for the weekend- like Unfriended, Dark City, Trouble Every Day, Phantom of the Paradise and Freaks. I looked and most of these are not commonly available on the typical sources, so I think I'll enjoy it. I've seen Freaks before, and that was a landmark film from Tod Browning in 1932.

Freaks is unique and iconic.

One of us. One of us.

Criterion has a lot of Film Noir. I've been thinking of ditching some of my other channels and signing up for it.

Just watched a old flick I really enjoyed. "Sgt. Ryker", with Lee Marvin. A Korean era drama. Great plot that keeps you guessing. NOT your typical war flick. Free on Youtube:

Time to watch this again.
