The Binge Watcher Review: Interrogation (2016)

Interrogation (2016)

Starring:

C.J. Perry, Adam Copeland, Julia Benson, Erica Carrol, Patrick Sabongui, Michael Rogers, Mitchell Kummen

Synopsis:

After the FBI receives a threat that endangers the entire city, an Interrogator and an I.T. Specialist are plunged into a series of mind games with a criminal mastermind, desperately racing against time to uncover the villain’s true agenda as they fight to protect thousands of lives. 

The Good:

This may be the best WWE Studio’s film that has been made couple that with Adam Copeland’s ever improving performance and you end up with a solid movie.

The Bad:

While the movie itself and the star of the movie were solid, the supporting cast left a lot to be desired. I am not saying it was horrible but it definitely felt like a movie which had the cast of a Straight to DVD Movie.

Final Thoughts:

Interrogation is the third film in the WWE/Lionsgate movie agreement which was agreed upon to showcase emerging talent. If you haven’t figure out yet, this really is to showcase WWE Talent. Interrogation is not the exception, as this movie stars former WWE star and Hall of Famer Edge (Adam Copeland) and current WWE Star Lana (CJ Perry). Usually you would have to be a Hard Core WWE fan to enjoy the movie, but this film is different, Its actually a solid movie

Adam Copeland performance is a major improvement since his first major movie “Bending The Rules”. It’s one of the reason’s this movie came across as much more watchable than most WWE Films.

This movie starts with the interrogation of man who is terrorizing a community and ends with a major twist which you wouldn’t see coming. With a film like this it was nice to see that the action used was spaced between the plot of the movie, leaving the viewer with a nice fast pace film that doesn’t leave you bored and wanting to turn the channel. I recommend this film for your viewing pleasure.

The Binge Watcher Review: Puerto Ricans In Paris (2015)

Puerto Ricans In Paris (2015)

Starring:

Luis Guzman, Edgar Garcia, Alice Taglioni, Rosario Dawson, Rosie Perez, Julie Ferrier, Lilou Fogli, Miriam Shor

Synopsis: 

Two New York detectives work under cover in Paris to Catch a Thief who’s threatening to flood the fashion market with bootlegged handbags.

The Good:

Let’s start with the obvious and that is Luis Guzman, personally find him hilarious in any comedy which he is in. This movie is no different, however Edgar Garcia steels the show. Garcia is great at being the calming influence opposite of Guzman’s over the top Player.

The Bad: 

The film itself never plays to the strengths of Luis Guzman, instead relying heavily on a script that never reaches the next level. 

Final Thoughts:

Although there are funny moments in this movie, it never moves past “Straight To DVD” quality. Most of the issues are with creditability, Outside of Garcia’s character being the lovable family man, there really isn’t much as to believe in this film,. These two are not so great detectives and Luis Guzman is more a horny old man than Player, and seriously does anyone really believe he can land a woman like Rosario Dawson? 

The Movie itself is good but not great, I wouldn’t recommend you run our to buy ever. But if you have run out of Netflix options and need a movie for a long weekend than this is it. So if your ok with watching a Horny old Puerto Rican hit on women from Paris than this is the movie for you.

The Binge Watcher Review: The Challenger (2015)

The Challenger (2015)

Starring:

Kent Moran, Michael Clarke Dunacan, S. Epatha Merkerson, Justin Hartley, Michael Rivera, Rob Morgan

Synopsis:

When they are evicted from their home, struggling Bronx auto mechanic Jaden Miller will do everything in his power to save he and his mother from living on the streets. With help of legendary trainer, Duane Taylor, Miller soon finds that boxing is their ticket to a better life.

The Good:

Another feel good Boxing movie, The story was solid and the acting great. With so many movies always having some sort of mid film redemption moment, The Challenger never went that direction and it was refreshing. 

The Bad:

With Boxing movies like Creed and Southpaw which the fights are show to perfection, The Challenger had a little improvement in this department. There were moments where the hits came across weak and choreographed.

Final Thoughts:

A good boxing movie never gets old, I don’t care if its the 8th Rocky movie or something new. With that in mind The Challenger did not disappoint one bit, it was a solid feel good story about a man trying to save his mothers home and pay for her medical expenses. 

The sad part of this movie had to be it was the last film Michael Clark Duncan performed in prior to passing away. I love him in any movie he has done and his performance in The Challenger did not disappoint.

There was some room of improvement in this movie, but in the end this movie was really good. My overall opinion is this movie is one which you must see.

The Binge Watcher Review: Hansel Vs. Gretel (2015)

Hansel Vs. Gretel (2015)

Starring:

Brent Lydic, Lili Baross, Aqueela Zoll, Jhey Castles, Riley Murphy, Nanrisa Lee, Fawn Stone, Elisha Kriis

Synopsis:

When Gretel falls under a dark spell and organizes a coven of witches, Hansel must find the courage to fight his twin sister and the sinister forces controlling her.

The Good:

This was a fun premise, turning Gretel evil and having her face off against her brother. This movie works, it uses just the right amount of CGI to make it fun but not ridiculous. The acting wasn’t horrible which makes it that much better.

The Bad:

Well this is a B-Movie and with it comes ridiculous scripts. 

Final Thoughts:

If you need a cheesy group movie night film, look no further than Asylum Production. They have the best of the B-movies.

Hansel vs Gretel is a new twist on an old fairy tale. This movie takes place in the modern world and what better way for a movie like this to get attention than to cast the majority of the witches with beautiful women.

At the end of the day this is a cheesy movie, its definitely worth a watch whether if its a Date Night at home or a Bad Movie Night with friends. Just don't expect a master piece, there is a reason this was a straight to DVD Movie.

The Binge Watcher Review: Behind The Mask: The Rise Of Leslie Vernon (2006)

Behind The Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon

Starring: 

Nathan Baesel, Angela Goethais, Robert Englund, Scott Wilson, Kate Miner, Bridgett Newton

Synopsis: 

The next great psycho horror slasher has given a documentary crew exclusive access to his life as he plans his reign of terror over the sleepy town of Glen Echo, all the while deconstructing the conventions and archetypes of the horror genre for them.

The Good:

A new take on the psycho horror slasher film, Behind The Mask takes look a the genre from the point of view of a documentary. From the beginning of the film you are show the trade secrets of a psychotic mad man. The film starts light hearted, as he takes the film crew through his training regimen. But by the end of the film, you are now in a slasher flick.

The Bad:

A definite low budget film, film quality isn’t at its best which is why the film was shot as a documentary style movie.

Final Thoughts:

I loved this movie, yes its a low budget film but in every aspect of the movie the creative team and actors pulled of something special. The concept of this film was great. It didn’t shy away from any of the great slasher flicks, it pay homage to those film and treats it as if it was in the same world of as those slashers. Plus we get the great Robert Englund.

My favorite part had to be the beginning, showing insight into the thought process of a psycho. The picking of the final girl, how she had to be a virgin to make this work. The Cardio needed to give off the ability to be in multiple places, and that creepy walk which somehow allows the villain to catch the group they are hunting, and finally the set up of the kill sight. The film itself give a flawless change from documentary film into the the closing act which was an actual slasher movie.

This was a perfect movie and must scene for a movie night with friends. The best part, they are currently in the planning phase for what looks like a prequel. Have you seen Behind the mask? what where your thoughts of this movie? Let us know and leave your comments below.
