Last Action Hero
A young Film fan is given a magic ticket which allows him to jump into the Movie he's watching, which happens to be Arnold Schwarzenegger's latest. However the Movie's Villains obtain the ticket and go into the real world.
I was a Teenager when this came out and to be honest I thought it was alright but being older he was able to appreciate the nuances and Easter Eggs a bit more. However at over 2 hours, it was too long.
The Survivor
The story of a Concentration Camp Survivor who Boxed for the Nazi's and his quest to find his former lover. As with these types of Movies, it was powerful stuff.
Naked Fist
Jillian Kessner investigates the disappearance of her Sister. During this, she meets a man who is an Underground Fighter. Not a bad Film from it's time and got placed on the now 3rd tier of the Video Nasty List. Should be passed now.
Elvis
The Story of Elvis Presley and his partnership with his Manager, Colonel Tom Parker. A quiet enjoyable Film with some great performances from Austin Butler and Tom Hanks (Oscar Nominations upcoming) My fear was that it would be filmed, Arthouse style however whilst there was elements of it, it wasn't constant.
American Ninja 4: The Annihilation
David Bradley is sent to rescue some Soldiers from a Warlord however after he is captured himself, Michael Dudikoff is sent to rescue them all. Picked this up in the HMV Sale, it's a decent watch, if you've seen the others. There are some good ninja training scenes.
