Last Film You Saw

End Of Watch: 8/10.

This was shot in a documentary style format and a little akin to the paranormal investigation genre but nevertheless still an engrossing watch.

Very funny in parts and also gritty beyond the compelling as our two perfectly matched duos unwittingly take on the might of the mexican cartel. If I have to cast crititism and deduct Moon point for pedantisism then it has to be of primary concern how machine gun bullets can evade a primary target in an ambush crossfire situation and so was slightly pissed off with that lack of realism.

With these minor niggles out of the way we both sat on the edge of our seats enthraled with the action even though we wept buckets at it's alternative end .. but that may just have been the gin.


Longtime LAPD partners and friends, Brian Taylor (Jake Gyllenhaal) and Mike Zavala (Michael Peña) patrol one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Los Angeles. Though they may bend the rules, their honor and dedication to the job are unquestioned. Taylor and Zavala always have each other's back, even if Taylor's surreptitious filming of their daily activities for a college course is a bit ill-advised. All hell breaks loose for the officers when they run afoul of a vicious Mexican cartel.

Okay. Everything is laid waste by nuclear armageddon in the early part of the movie , but the good guy wins in the end, gets the girl and rides off into the sunset to the strains of "Agadoo".
Think there’s been a cross contamination of threads here
 
The Duke, cinema

Jim Broadbent plays a campaigning oap who steals a famous Goya and tries to ransom it for free TV licenses. It's well made, decent script and thankfully a good pace, no hanging on for 2.5 hours, just a good 90 minutes. It's not pulling up trees but a half decent film, 6.5/10
