Good Morning Vietnam

Robin Williams is the Armed Forces DJ whose radio show for the troops in Vietnam ruffles some feathers for some of his superiors. He also falls in love with a Vietnamese woman and befriends her brother. This is the 1st time I ever saw this film and whilst I didn't dislike this film, I wasn't in love with it either.

Doomsday

Well this is a bonkers film, a virus decimates Britain and a wall is set up on the Scottish boarder to keep all the infected out (I know it's a more extreme version of what's happening now) Fast forward and survivors are found in the infected zone so Rhona Mitra is sent along with others to find a cure. What they find is a bunch of survivors which make you think of Mad Max, they escape and try to find a Doctor who may help but he has created a medieval society. Like I said this is absolutely bonkers, not to mention it's has many bloody deaths, a cannibalism scene which will make Deodato and Lenzi proud and a soundtrack that has the Fine Young Cannibals song Good Thing, The Can Can Theme and Frankie Goes To Hollywood's Two Tribes. Did I say this is a bonkers film. By the way, I like this film.

I swear if this was released in the early 80's, it might have been on The Video Nasties List.

The Raid

A quality Indonesian Martial Arts movie in which a Police raid on a Crime Boss's block of flats goes wrong and an Officer has to get out. The Action scenes are just amazing. Just don't watch this and Dredd within a short window of time.
