Once Upon a Time in America, Skeletons, King Solomon's Mines

Onceuponatimeinamerica

Watching Once Upon a Time in America, despite its almost 4 hr runtime, it was cut tragically short. While the first half is over-drawn, the second half is jumbled up killing what could have been another great film from Leone. 3/5

Skeletons is a fun idea done decently. I enjoyed it and wouldn't mind seeing more from this world. 3.5/5

 

Kingsolomansmines

King Solomon's Mines might be one of the racists films I've ever seen. Also, Spielberg should have sued them for ripping off Indiana Jones. 1/5

The Fighter, Stone, In the Line of Fire

The Fighter is one of the best boxing movies I've ever seen. The boxing sequences look incredibly real. Everyone deserves to win awards this Oscar season. 4.5/5

 

Stone

Excellent performances in a rather routine story, Stone doesn't offer anything new but the actors do great jobs. 3.5/5

 

In_line_of_fire

I heard some podcasts talking about In the Line of Fire and it made me want to watch it again. John Malkovich does an incredible job the villain. 3.75/5

Great movie. Capra does a great job with this comedy. There is a reason it won 5 Oscars. 5/5

Not bad revenge thriller. Probably works better as a TV series. It's good to see Gibson do his crazy on camera instead of real life. 3.5/5

Great movie. One of Scorsese's best films. I even like Sharon Stone. I didn't think that was possible. The almost 3 hour run time really flys by. There is a reason he's one of America's best directors. 4.75/5
