Yes read it twice, and I changed my mind about not liking Grace. His redemption arc is shifted a little because of his amnesia and he redeemed himself in other ways and rose to the occasion.
Forgive me 🙏 but had to put this it's so bad it's a good movie it could've been shorter lol.

Quigley Down Under (1990)
American Matt Quigley answers Australian land baron Elliott Marston's ad for a sharpshooter to kill the dingoes on his property. But when Quigley finds out that Marston's real target is the aborigines, Quigley hits the road. Now, even American expatriate Crazy Cora can't keep Quigley safe in his cat-and-mouse game with the homicidal Marston.

Mercy 2026 (Prime)
Crime drama with Chris Pratt as a police officer accused of killing his wife and being tried in The Mercy Court by an AI judge with 90 min to prove his innocence. Surprisingly good. I would say that 90 min is bull even if the premise of this court is that the evidence is pretty much slam dunk. 🤔

Love that movie and again with Alan Rickman stealing the show as rancher Elliot Marston.

Dirty War (2004)
A terrorist group detonates a radiological dispersal device (RDD) in Central London. Due to a lack of preparation, training, and resources, chaos ensues. Sadly, the most likely senario...🙁 On YT.

F1 (2025)- Brad Pitt is not an actor I like, i put him in the George Clooney category, a pretty face, but nothing that ever grabbed me, but I’m always ready to give most actors another chance. F1 should be an adrenaline rush, but I just was not feeling it, did not finish cause I really did not care about Sonny Hayes and I disliked the music. Ford vs Ferrari was a much better story. Yet note, this movie got high marks at Rotten Tomatoes. Maybe it’s me. 🤔

Nah. I agree with you however I did finish the film.
Racing movies rarely hit the mark for me, and I LOVE racing and F1 in particular.
Ford vs Ferrari is a much better film.
Gran Prix is probably my all-time favorite racing film.

I agree with both of you. I finished the F1 film and was not impressed at all. It was boring, predictable and no character development either.
Ford vs Ferrari was an enjoyable movie and one I like.
Haven't seen Gran Prix though...

Very strong racing focused films. Grand Prix a classic and still the best of the lot...

Messiah of Evil (1974)
A young woman goes searching for her missing artist father. Her journey takes her to a strange Californian seaside town governed by a mysterious undead cult. An atmospheric horror film that very much lives in 1974, which is either good or bad depending on your mindset. Best described as like having a bizarre, zombie themed lucid dream... but I like it.

It’s been a long time, I should probably rewatch Grand Prix. 🙂

Agree, except for when he plays the off beat or crazy guy.
12 Monkeys, Seven, only after he sees what's in the box, True Romance, a small role, Kalifornia and I just like World War Z plus Bullet Train.

"The Final Countdown" I remember it very well. I've talked to many of the actors in this movie. I was stationed onboard the USS Nimitz in Security Division when they were filming this movie. Most of the movie was filmed while the ship was moored at pier 12 in Norfolk Virginia. We did get underway for 2 days off the coast of Virginia for some filming. Also some filming was done on the West Coast. I do watch this movie from time to time to see some of the crew that I was stationed with, remembering the good old days.

As antiwar movies goes I found this one a bit of a bore. It's a shame too because I really like the cast. 🙁
