Default Bubba Ho Tep.

Elvis and JFK save the day, with a little help from the Lone Ranger.

A low budget film, but very well done.

Those with experience with nursing/rest homes will recognise a lot of sad true stuff.

I mentioned this movie back in March: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...postcount=1288

it CANNOT be categorised! Not even "black comedy" does it full justice. Suffice to say, then, that it's a Bruce Campbell film...

Default "Lost Command" starring Anthony Quinn.



A good film about French Foreign Legion paratroopers ( a tough lot - recent actions :- rescuing the Saharan oil refinery workers, liberating Timbuctoo, and a very brave rescue of what they could of the foreign workers of Kolwezi , May 1978. )

However the film starts with Den Bien Phu and follows the career of ......
well just watch it. Quite a few big stars in it. I give it 9/10.

I have a copy on my hard drive that I watch when I need entertainment. One of my favorites. Milla is nice to look at, Bruce plays Bruce as usual but Gary Oldman steels the show. Fun movie.

I'm sorry. Oldman is very good, but Chris Tucker steals the show.

I haven't seen it, but now i want to because he's in it. He made Rush Hour for me. Hilarious actor.

Do yourself a favor. See it now. From Milla's hilarious language to Bruce's reluctant hard-guy shtick (which never gets old) to perennial bad guy Tiny Lister as the President of Earth to Gary Oldman's hair (and acting, of course) to Chris Tucker's bizarre...well, just see it. You won't regret it.

That seems to be reason enough to see it. I'll watch it soon
