Golden ticket

Last Action Hero starring Arnold Schwarzenegger · F. Murray Abraham · Art Carney · Charles Dance · Frank McRae · Tom Noonan · Robert Prosky · Anthony Quinn - Austin O'Brien. Screenplay was by Shane Black. A 90s action comedy. Parody, a satirical take on Hollywood. So many easter eggs. Danny is a young boy living in New York with his mother. It is a rough neighbourhood. He often goes to this rundown cinema. Nick is the projector operator. He has a magic golden ticket given to him by Houdini. Danny would be based on Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. In the movie world is Jack Slater who is based on many action film characters. Shoots bad guys, blows things up and smokes a cigar. References are made to the films that were released around the time. There is a villain named Benedict who is working for a mob boss. I would say he was based on The Man With The Golden Gun. The police chief was definitely inspired by Beverly Hills Cop. There are many cameos. Check out the trivia on Imdb. I had been looking at reaction channels. I have seen the film before. The actor that played Cane in Robocop 2 is playing an axe murderer called Ripper. The acting is good. Charles Dance is always superb. Over the top stunts and effects. Plenty of hot women, Bobbie Brown is the one in the video store. I like the soundtrack. I did think that with the theme playing during the villain scenes it has a few notes of The Sound Of Silence. I did wonder about the women in bdsm costumes. Arnie does laugh at himself. Shane worked with him on Predator. This was out in 1993. Anyway I will thank you for visiting this page. Feel free to look around. 

Batman Forever

Val Kilmer, Chris O'Donnell, Jim Carrey, Tommy Lee Jones, Nicole Kidman, Drew Barrymore, Michael Gough, Pat Hingle.

Directed by Joel Schumacher, produced by Tim Burton. The third film. Comical and action packed. Different to the previous films. Batman now has to face Harvey Dent aka Two-Face and Edward Nigma aka The Riddler. I didn't think much to Dr. Chase Meridian. Colourful cinematography and costumes. Bruce Wayne has taken in Dick Grayson after a tragedy. The actors get to camp it up. You will like the soundtrack. Seal-Kiss From A Rose is a great song. There is a new CW series to be made called Batwoman.

Batman And Robin starring George Clooney, Chris O'Donnell, Michael Gough, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Uma Thurman, Donald Glover, Elle MacPherson, Alicia Silverstone. Directed by Joel Schumacher. Some inspiration from the TV series. Comical superhero film. There would not be another Batman film until Batman Begins. People did moan that it killed the franchise. Some parts the actors would dub over as it happens in film making. Starts of with the caped crusaders going on a mission. Nice theatrical scene. The ice skating henchmen playing hockey. Mr. Freeze is there to steel a diamond. Bane is created from a super soldier serum. A local scientist that is an environmentalist is transformed during an accident into Poison Ivy. Uma looks good here. Good references. Using special effects. Some jokes. The dialogue could work in the classic Bond films. This DVD is two discs. The second has special features. The Batmobile has been given a makeover. Alfred is dying. His niece has come to visit. Batgirl joins the team. It is a great cast. Tom Hardy's portrayal of Bane is better. I am selling this DVD on eBay.
Nice soundtrack.
