Notes: It is rather disheartening that, 20 years after ‘Pulp Fiction’ was released, there were still making such shameless copycats. I mean, can you imagine ‘Pulp Fiction’ without its amazingly cool soundtrack, can you imagine if it would have been written by some hack instead of Quentin Tarantino and can you imagine if they would have added some lame self-help book to link somehow all the characters together? Well, this movie would have been pretty much the end-result. Concerning Stallone, I have to admit that it was actually probably one of the most interesting characters he had done in years but his character was not developed whatsoever (which could be said about every single character involved in this movie). It was also pretty neat to see the lovely Lauren Cohan finally in something else than ‘The Walking Dead’. Damned, she is really super charismatic but, unfortunately, pretty much like Stallone, she was given really nothing interesting to do here. Concerning the rest of the cast, there were quite a lot of B stars involved and they all did what they could with this material but I can’t say I cared about any of them. Coming back on the self-help book, the damned thing was unconvincing right from the start but it might have been slightly more efficient if Teddy Raymond would have remained an enigma. Instead, at some point, they decided to show his ‘skills’ and how he managed to cure another character of his nicotine addiction but it was just so pathetic and it made this book look even more idiotic than it already was. 
“To be honest, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since it seemed to have a solid reputation (it is included in the ‘1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die’ list among other things), I was quite eager to check it out.

Well, it’s almost 10 years that Mendes retired to take care of her kids she had with Ryan Gosling and it had been a while si” read more
“To be honest, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was starring Diane Kruger, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, even though it apparently didn’t get much love when it was released, I thought it was not bad. First of all, Diane Kruger was basically born to ” read more
“I had no idea what to expect from this movie but since there was a decent cast involved, I thought I might as well check it out. Apparently, some critics praised it and even called it a Feminist Western (Not all critics did love it though) but, to be honest, it never really impressed me. Sure, I hav” read more
“To be honest, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since there was a decent cast involved, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, the first thing I really enjoyed was to finally see Liam Neeson in something else than another lame and generic action flick. On top of that, ” read more
