The banter between both stars
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.

A good old fashioned school story
The first book in the Malory Towers series. One of my favorite books as a child and still loved today. It's very much set in the 1940's but it mostly adds to the charm.

Baby Driver is a fifth gear joy ride of millennial cool and old-school car stunt acrobatics. Nicolas Wingding Refn’s Drive lifted liberally from Walter Hill’s 70s crime classic The Driver.

AT (1676 KP) rated Oresama Teacher Vol. 1 in Books
Dec 5, 2019 (Updated Dec 5, 2019)
Predictable, but fun. Bad girl changes schools, meets her bad-boy homeroom teacher, and a fellow bad student. Although she is trying to start a new life at the new school, her old ways keep showing through. A typical shojo manga, but it's still a fun, quick read, nonetheless.

Fun for new and old comic fans
This was such an awesome start to a new/reboot series. From start to finish I just found Vol.1 so much fun! The characters are all not only likeable but very relatable and that fact alone made this series one I couldn't put down.
This was also a great start for old school fans and new fans who wanted to try reading comics for the first time.

Dec 22, 2019
So what should be the last movie of this fairly popular franchise (surely Stallone's getting to old for this) is actually pretty good.
Ok the story is very simple and you know what's gonna happen in the end but it was all done in a very entertaining and quite brutal and bloody way.In some ways it felt like a throwback to some old school nineties revenge movies (which is a good thing)

A good action packed film with an array of well known actors. It has some great shootouts, stunts and steamy scenes with Kim Basinger! For some reason you can't get this on DVD region 2 so managed to catch it on TV. A good blast from the past enjoyable old school action film.
