Meh
Found this one on Netflix. It's very mediocre. The acting was weak and the effects were too. The story wasn't a bad premise but it was told poorly. The action sequences were not very good or realistic. I found myself saying many times over "yeah, right" and I'm not usually one that expects realism from movies. Problem is, if you're trying to make it realistic, then you have to stick to it throughout. It was basically a "bank heist good really bad" movie, not some fantasy style story. I would say that overall this one is NOT worth a watch.

Old School Action
Rewatched this in UHD and it's still as good today as it was when first released 31 years ago!.

A very simple plot (as was the case with these type of movies back then and now) with Arnold as a fish out of water russian cop trying to track a bad guy drug dealer who has fled from moscow to chicago.A wise cracking american cop (belushi) is Arnold's guide through chicago as he hunts down the bad guy..Some funny one liners and old school action set pieces make this an enjoyable film.

ARGH!!! What is it with authors lately and cliff-hanger endings?!?! First the Gypsy Brothers series and now this one.

BUT I love Zeth. He's not your typical bad guy; he is the baddest bad guy who's sexy as hell and into some rather kinky stuff.

Yeah, erotica is not my favourite genre ever but sometimes...well I find the perfect blend of erotica and budding romance and that is this series. You can just tell that something amazing is going to happen between Sloane and Zeth.

Can't wait to read the next book in the series.

Well. That was quite a journey. And not to the center of the earth this time. Once more, The Rock showes us he can make a bad fall watchable, dare I say, enjoyable?
I know that this is not really a "good" movie, but dam did I enjoy it. I laughed, I groaned, I shouted at the TV about the sheer "in your face science!" of the logic. And I had a good time doing it.
As bad movies go, this one is a gooden!

A Lost Piece of Hope
Where do I even begin with this trainwreck of a movie. I never walk out of a movie. I never turn a movie off if I don't need to. If anything, I'll never watch it again. This movie when I saw it at the theater back in 2015, was almost that 1 movie to do it. I had to grip my seat just to stay seated and not leave. From a slashed budget leaving bad effects to some that don't look done. To a bad story, bad acting and apparently a horrible production with a director who claimed to have a better cut that the studio didn't want to go with. It's absolutely no wonder this film was garbage. I wouldn't recommend this to someone I really hate. The only torture this film could do is bore you to death. Don't see this if you haven't. If you have, I'm sorry.

I really liked this.

This is only the third full-length mm romance I've read and like the other two, it was a sort of mystery/thriller.

I liked both characters. They were both really likable and I enjoyed reading their story, though the whole on again/off again thing drove me a bit potty at times, but I have to say the on again bits were both hot and sweet.

As for the bad guy, I had my suspicions from about mid-way through just because he seemed to be in the right place at the right time. I felt the ending, in regards to the bad guy, was a little bit of an anti-climax for me (but by then I was more interested in Ty's safe recovery than how the bad guy got his comeuppance)

I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the series to see what else these two get up to :D
