David McK (3663 KP) rated Point Break (1991) in Movies
Nov 28, 2021
Young FBI agent going undercover, and falling in with an extreme sports crowd who later prove to be those responsible for the robberies.
Unsure of where his loyalties lie.
Charismatic leader of the extreme sports group.
Increasingly ridiculous stunts.
Wait, am I describing 'Point Break' or 'The Fast and the Furious' franchise??
Yes, it is clear that that later franchise (Fasrt and Furious) takes many elements from this earlier movie (albeit switching surfing for cars), which stars a - very young!, pre The Matrix or even Speed - Keanu Reeves (Johnny Utah) alongside an impressively mulleted Patrick Swayze (Bodhi) and Gary Busey as Utah's older FBI partner.
Lets face it, though, we're really here for the stunts (or, at least, the male audience is!): in particular the surfing and skydiving (without a parachute) scenes.
David McK (3663 KP) rated Star Wars: Ahsoka in TV
Oct 8, 2023
All in the Disney+ era, as exclusives.
To this, we can now add Ahsoka.
Which is a strong contender for being the most 'Star Wars'y of the lot, if that makes sense.
It's also effectively a live-action sequel to perhaps one of the best Star Wars animations shows (Rebels), more or less picking up the plot lines from the end of that series after the disappearance of Thrawn and Ezra Bridger in the final episode of it.
So, in effect, we're also doing a live action "Heir to the Empire" (finallyl!!), with the return of Thrawn, alongside elements from the old E.U.: Zombie Stormtroopers, The Nightsisters of Dathomir, the Mortis Gods ...

David McK (3663 KP) rated Tomb Raider (2018) in Movies
Jul 21, 2019 (Updated Mar 27, 2022)
In this one, Alicia Vikander takes over the role of a - very different than previous - Lara Croft, a younger version of the character who has not yet become the eponymous Tomb Raider we are all familiar with (and on which Angelina Jolie based her portrayal). If anyone has played the 2013(ish) Tomb Raider game, there's really no surprises here, with elements of the plot - and, indeed, some of the more memorable scenes - almost lifted wholesale from that game.
