Retribution (I) (2023)
2/10
Really really poor
17 September 2023
This film was poor on every level. Even the CGI was poor and there is no excuse for that in 2023. Police standing 20 feet from a car full of C4. Usually some thought is put into anything with Neeson in it but this is weak on every level with holes all over the plot. This could have been a lot better but I think Neeson is just on the money train now and like Mel Gibson and Nicholas Cage, they will show up in any old shite. Cinematography is dreadful too. This is a B movie at best. It takes a much better story line to pull off the single venue/scene type movie. It needed to be filled out a lot more.

The Irish Mob (2023)
5/10
Had potential
15 May 2023
This had potential only for dreadful casting for the Gardai. The lead could act and was credible in the role. I expected worse to be honest. Pauline O'Driscoll was terrible as lead cop and looked like a head school teacher and her superior was even worse. The narration was unnecessary and took away from the credibility of the movie also. Some scenes good and some not so good. Plots were stolen from Kin and The General, but I made it to the end which was surprising. With a decent director and some removal of "actors" like baz black etc...this could have been really good. Gangland in Dublin is a lot more intricate and complex than this and more characters with power would have helped. The Garda unit also, way to simple and poorly cast for this to be credible. Overall, just about watchable and mainly due to the lead and his sidekick.

No new knowledge
14 February 2022
This programme is terrible. No new evidence and Mark makes connections that can't be proven and are a stretch at best. Series 2 is even worse. Other programs tell these stories and this is just like click bait that keeps you watching as he veers all over the place and the result is no new evidence and no convictions.

Semper Fi (2019)

A bit of everything
2 December 2019
Thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Good acting and good storyline. A story of brotherhood in the marine sense and the family sense. Unpredictable plot which I wasn't expecting. It has romance, violence, suspense and emotion. Like I said. A bit of everything

Brian De Palma? Seriously?

This is once of the worst films i've seen! Was this purely put together to get views from game of thrones fans? This is so poor. C movie at best

The Bouncer (2018)
4/10
Not bad but not great either
22 May 2019
I don't understand all of these high ratings unless they are pure diehard JCVD fans. I was a fan as a teenager but as an adult I just cant rate him as a serious actor. Not a bad storyline but it just left me wanting towards the end. I was expecting a couple of twists that never came. I wouldn't say its a complete waste of time but don't bother unless you're stuck for something to kill a couple of hours
