One last tour of duty

Staff Sargent Nantz (Eckhart) is planning his retirement from the service but, a strange phenomenon has began to crash all over the world and into the pacific right off the the coast of Los Angles. He is called back into duty to help lead a squad of Marines who all have a different views on him and all have stories of their own. Their job is to clear the area and evacuate all civilians because some form of alien beings has begun to attack and the order to send in nukes has been given. Does Nantz have anything left in the tank to lead us to victory?

Not Eckhart's finest movie but it just was a bad story. I am surprised that Michelle Rodriguez even got involved in this film

David McK (3557 KP) rated Conan the Barbarian in Books

Jan 30, 2019

A collection of classic Conan tales, repackaged with a new jacket to tie-in to the new movie coming out. This edition includes:

The Tower of the Elephant (pg 1)
Rogues in the House (pg 27)
The Frost-Giant's Daughter (pg 54)
Queen of the Black Coast (pg 63)
A Witch Shall Be Born (pg 95)
The People of the Black Circle (pg 141)
Red Nails (pg 226)
Beyond the Black River (pg 212)
The Hyborian Age (pg 372)
Cimmeria (verse) (pg 397)

and, to be honest, I'd be more inclined to give the book 1.5 stars (except GR doesn't do 1/2 stars) than 2: I preferred some of my other 2-star rated books, but this wasn't as bad as some of my 1-star rated books either.
