Fled - 1996
Laurence Fishburne, Stephen Baldwin, Salma Hayek, Will Patton I had never seen it before, not even heard of it. I really liked it! Two escaped convicts must outwit, outrun and outgun vicious enemies on both sides of the law as they are hunted through the Georgia wilderness. |

Alien vs Predator 2004
I choose the predator over alien anytime. At least a predator has the decency to kill you and not use you for breeding. I kinda liked it, just too much light flashing and flickering. |

Mission to Mars - 2000
Tim Robbins, Gary Sinise My goodness, what a great movie! Rating is only 5,7. I feel it deserve way more! I didn't know what to expect, I'd never heard of the movie even, but it was really good. Definitely worth watching! |

The Adjustment Bureau
Wow, what an amazing movie!! I had never seen it as I had it confused with a movie from the 90s. But about free choice verses being controlled, destiny vs. fate, etc etc. A man being forced to let go of the woman he loves because of the bigger picture, the plan. But he refuses, which the adjustment bureau isn't chuffed about. Great movie, great cast, great story! Mat Damon, Emily Blunt. |

Not sure what you mean. Maybe I occasionally change my mind, but usually when I don't like something, or a genre, it doesn't change.
Many of the movies you posted I've already seen, the first 2 I'd love to see but if memory serves there was a lot of flashing lights so I couldn't watch it. P me O as I'd wanted to see that last King Kong movie. Just now watched run hide fight which I hadn't seen yet, and it was indeed a good movie! |

Line of Duty 2019
Aaron Eckhart. Wow! What a good movie! Kept me on the edge of my seat almost non-stop! Amazing that I'd never come across this one. VERY much worth watching! Deserves a helluva lot more than the 5,3 rating it has. A lot more! Frank Penny is a disgraced cop looking for a shot at redemption after killing a child abductor. With the police chief's 11-year-old daughter's life on the line, Frank goes rogue to try and save her. But to find the girl Frank will need the help of vlogger Ava Brooks, whose live-streaming news channel is broadcasting Frank's every move. While a city watches, Frank and Ava race against time and not only do they have to face every daring obstacle but also the abductor' brother who's out for revenge. |

I was really into TWD for the longest time.
I bought seasons 1-7 on dvd. Then I felt like the show started getting a little repetitive, and I started becoming more occupied with other things, and I kind of lost interest. Rick leaving the show kind of did it for me. I Stopped buying box sets and only occasionally caught an episode on tv. I'm not even sure what season they are up to now...10 I think? Then I watched last week's episode where it told the history and back story of Negan. Great episode! One of the most important episodes of the entire series. I like his character so much. I might have to start catching back up. |

I might have to start catching back up. I think I watched 2 seasons, if that, and got bored. And like I suspected then, it became a series that they'd milk until there's no milk to get anymore. It would've been better if they had kept it short and sweet, like 3 seasons, and actually working toward a solution as opposed to dragging it out. Obviously many do enjoy it otherwise the milk would've dried up by now, hihi. |

Obviously many do enjoy it otherwise the milk would've dried up by now, hihi. True. especially when they not only started dragging it out, but started spin off series too. like "fear the walking dead" and "twd the world beyond" like 1 series wasn't enough now they're doing spinoffs? lol. I never had the slightest interest in any of those. I think Negan is the main reason the show is still somewhat interesting to me still. But yeah, I see your point...how much longer can they possibly drag this thing out. |

Thousands are still longing for Jack Bauer to come back but that won't ever happen. They likely could've dragged it out, even though it must've been getting physically tough on Kiefer. I suspect that's why they stopped as well. But isn't that better than dragging it out past its prime? I also would want Jack Bauer to come back, but I rather be left with that feeling than coming to think, "Geezzz man.. shouldn't you quit and retire by now?" |

Ending a series on a high note, definitely increases the quality of the show and makes it more memorable. But unfortunately producers and hollywood always seem to put $$ over quality. If something has been popular and been profitable, they will beat it like a dead horse. I can think of tons of movies like that, where they just had to do sequels when they probably should not have. |

And speaking of Kiefer...I actually just watched one of his movies from the 90s last night that I hadn't seen in a long time.
"The Vanishing" I forgot how good that movie was. |

Yes, and unfortunately they often dump series with a helluva lot of promise, and followers even. |

Wasn't that based on a true story, something that happened in France? I may watch that movie. Kiefer has done quite a lot of good movies and series. The weird thing is that the man is as attractive as the back end of a bus, yet there's something incredibly sexy about him, hihi. Oh and btw, I accidentally bumped into a clip of him and his band on YouTube the other day. I wasn't really aware he was in a band. I listened, and damn! It was good! They were performing at a street corner (for the recording of course). Cannot recall the name of the song, but really damned good! Almost made me want to buy the album, which is a very very rare thing for me to do, hihi. |

You gotta watch 'Money Heist' (Netflix) -- made in Spain but dubbed on English -- good writing, good acting, good drama.
also, the Japanese movie 'The Shoplifters' (Netflix) is very good. |

Alot of the Denzel Washington móvies have lots of action, and Lian Neesam móvies like Taken.
