The Bronx, USA (2019)
Misses the Mark - big time
The name of this move should have been 'Mosholu Parkway - USA' because that;'s the only Bronx area that it depicted. My family moved to the Bronx from Harlem in 1959 and I lived there up until 2006. It was hard to identify with this depiction of my hometown because it was so narrow. I could not identify with these folks as my fond memories of The Bronx encompasses so many other areas of the borough. The Bronx has both a rich and chaotic history and this movie fell flat on delivering any of it. Although this film was nostalgic in its delivery of the memories of these old guys, but it did not capture diversity of the borough. The other areas of the Bronx is a lot more interesting than the "well to do" Mosholu Parkway area.
Abduction (2011)
I never watched Twilight and never intend to
Don't know what all the long winded hubbub is all about. I really like this movie and the entire premise. There was plenty of action and the acting was not that bad. The movie really began to hold my interest when the kid discovers that his parents are not his real parents. and confronts his mother. When soccer mom starts kicking butt I knew it was on! I know of the Twilight series but have never watched it and don't intend to. I did sell a unopened Twilight Scene it DVD game on eBay but that's as close as I have ever got to the series so I have no idea what the other reviewers are talking about. Forget all the Twilight comparisons this movie was fun to watch period.
