RED

Movie time again. It has been a while but with the nearing of the end of the year there will be more to come for sure as I need to use up the excess in my vacation leave so I don’t loose it. Bruce Willis is one of my go to actors in a movie. Some weren’t so good but this one definitely was. And it was another one that had an all star cast. Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, Helen Mirren, John Malkovich, and a somewhat small part with Ernest Borgnine who I also like to watch a lot.

In this movie, the actors are playing parts more towards their age as they are retired CIA assassins. The CIA has a hit out on the retirees because they were in an OP way back when involving the current VP of the United States who cannot have it come to light. All the action that I like is there. I’m surprised it wasn’t number 1 though. It should have been. It is a great movie.

There were kids in there again though on a Friday at 11:40 AM when I went. I cannot comprehend why parents would take their child out of school to go see a movie. What about the education? You can’t take them on a weekend?

Cop Out

Now first off this is an R rated flick and I must warn you if you are one of those people who have issues with a lot of cursing this flick isn’t for you. There is a TON of cursing but it’s funny as heck to. Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan are brilliantly funny together. I can only imagine them having more fun making the movie than actually watching it.

The one part that got me to want to watch it was shown on the trailer when the cops stop this kid trying to steal a car. Morgan tells the kid to get out of the car and the kid asks is this because I’m black and Morgan is like no because your TEN to wit the kid kicks him in the groin. Too funny. Willis is standing at the back of the car laughing but it gets funnier when Morgan asks the kid who stole this one car they are after because he is one of the biggest car thieves in the area and when the kid refuses they threaten to tell his mother and then he starts singing.

I wonder if Willis likes playing those off the cuff cop persona’s because he has quite a list of them but all good in my opinion except for maybe the one where he ended up being a cop for the boat patrol. I wasn’t too fond of that movie.
