An "immersive" highly realistic event!
on January 7, 2017
Posted by: CWLW
The story-line is accompanied by very realistic sound-effects, striking cinematography that captures the “wildness” of the great outdoors, and acting that is nothing short of exceptional – this film is an “immersive” highly realistic event! This is more than a creditable story of pure, bruit survival in a wilderness high mountain winter environment – Hugh Glass is continually fighting the elements, Indians, a cold winter and his fellow-man as-well-as the natural predators. The moving-pictures physically and rugged wilderness setting was completely captured by this film – it literally transfers the audience to early 19th Century Western America and it captures the triumph of the Human spirit. Every scene is a powerful experience as-well-as a superb pictorial event. The film is both a spiritual and a transformative experience that will be remembered – you will be “called” back to it often for another second viewing.

A Well-Done Space Odyssey
on January 7, 2017
Posted by: CWLW
For the first 4 minutes you are greeted by an Overature of the films sound-track themes followed by The Dawn of Man with a pan of an arid landscape with apes fighting each other. When a monolith appears the apes become agitated and curious. The age of discovery begins and fast-forwards to colonized space and the Blue Danube Waltz. 1 Hour 28 Minutes into the film a 2 minute Intermission with sound-track-accompaniment. 2001 is perhaps one of the best visual and sound-track stories ever produced on film and it is in a sense a highly “artful” cinema that you will want to return to. It is a highly satisfying view and its ending also greets you with a 2 Minute sound-track for Exit Music.

A Pleasurable & Fun View
on January 7, 2017
Posted by: CWLW
Catness decides on a self-appointed mission – to assonate Panem’s tyrannical president Snow. The interesting story-line is superbly directed and the acting is believable. The saga is accompanied by very competent sound-effects and a well-fitted sound track. The final chapter to HUNGER GAMES is a pleasurable view.

The Price of Freedom is High!
on January 7, 2017
Posted by: CWLW
Story opens in 1949 – An American attorney and former U.S. Army Air Force officer Major/Lt. Col. Harvey Stovall (Dean Jagger) is vacationing in Great Britain when he notices a familiar Toby Jug in an English antique shop. He buys it and bicycles out to an abandoned airfield, the former USAAF station, RAF Archbury, where he served as the Group Adjutant of the 918th Bomb Group during World War II. The scene then back-flashes to RAF Archbury, circa 1942. Col. Keith Davenport (Gary Merrill), commanding officer of the B-17 Bomb Group stationed at RAF Archbury, becomes “too-close” to his men and is deeply troubled by their combat losses. He is relieved of command by Maj Gen Pritchard (Millard Mitchell), the Wing Commander, who is convinced his Bomb Group Commander is at the “breaking point” and Maj. Gen. Pritchard reassigns his Operations Officer Brig. Gen. Savage (Gregory Peck) to command the struggling Bomb Group. After Savage assumes command of the Bomb Group he reassigns Lt. Col. Ben Gately (Hugh Marlowe), the Groups Executive Officer, to the “Leper Colony” – Savages place for those he considers substandard. This story is a creditable portrayal of the American Army Air Forces European experience in WWII. They won the air war but the price of freedom was high!

Tora! Tora! Tora! is the Japanese signal to attack - and the movie meticulously recreates the attack on Pearl Harbor and the events leading up to it. Opening scenes contrast the American and Japanese positions. Japanese imperialists decide to stage the attack. Top U.S. brass ignore it's possibility. Intercepted Japanese messages warn of it - but never reach F.D.R.'s desk. Radar warnings are disregarded. Even the entrapment of a Japanese submarine in Pearl Harbor before the attack goes unreported. Ultimately the Day of Infamy arrives - in the most spectacular, gut-wrenching cavalcade of action-packed footage ever. You'll see moments of unsurpassed spectacle and heroism U.S. fighters trying to take off and being hit as they taxi; men blasted from the decks of torpedoed ships while trying to rescue buddies; savage aerial dogfights pitting lone American fliers against squadrons of Imperial war planes. It's the most dazzling recreation of America's darkest day - and some of her finest hours.

Let Us Not Forget this History Lesson
on January 7, 2017
Posted by: CWLW
Tora! Tora! Tora! provides primarily the Japanese prospective of the attack on Pearl Harbor which includes their planning, intra-service considerations of the attack, realistic training work-up and graphic detail for their 350 plane pre-dawn carrier launch of attach aircraft on the morning of December 7, 1941, and vividly depicts the complete state of the surprise that the Japanese Naval Air Forces achieved during their attack on the American Forces stationed at Pearl Harbor and their ensuing confusion. The film is filled with many dramatic aerial sequences which were realistically portrayed. The scheduled follow-up 2nd attack was canceled due to the apparent overall success of the first attack and the fleet turned Northwest in retirement to Japanese waters.

Winner of seven 1970 Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Actor for George C. Scott, Patton is a riveting portrayal of one of the twentieth centurys greatest military geniuses. As rebellious as he was brilliant, George Patton (Scott) was the only general truly feared by the Nazis, yet his own volatile personality was the one enemy he could never defeat. 1970 Best Picture, Directing, Actor (George C. Scott), Writing, Film Editing, Art Direction, Sound.

An Exciting & Well-Told History Lesson
on January 7, 2017
Posted by: CWLW
The story is well-told, exciting and well-acted – it recounts the 1979-1989 events in Afghanistan that eventually obstructed the Soviet incursion into that country. As an “after-thought:” To a degree it’s a story of “excess” that won the war but the “end-game” was not well- played which resulted in an another adventure into that region 2004-2014 which is still being played out as of the date of this writing.
