Barb Wire, True Romance, Mr Majestyk

The families of the writers of Casablanca should sue the writer of Barb Wire. The movie steals every plot point from that film. Still, it's a fun movie that wallows in it's cheesy B-movieness. 3/5

I didn't realize how much I love True Romance. It's probably Tarantino's best screenplay and easily the best thing Tony Scott has ever done. 4.5/5

Here is the set up for Mr. Majestyk. A watermelon farmer hires Mexican migrant workers to harvest his melons. Some white cowboy doesn't like that so he brings in white people to harvest Majestyk's melons. Majestyk assults the cowboy. The police arrest Majestyk and put him jail with one of the mafia's top hitmen. When the mob tries to break their guy out of jail, Majestyk kidnaps him and holds him for ransom to get the charges dropped. When taking the mob guy to the police he escapes and now is after Majestyk. That's crazy Simpson's level of convoluted to start a story. 2/5
