For sure, in NA called the professional.
The ROW version (Leon) has about an additional 15 minutes... of uh... material cut for us puritans here in the americas.

Yeah, it's a good one.

First time I saw it was in the theater. Was a double feature. The other movie was Interview with the Vampire. I like that as well but like The Professional more.

Actually both great movies, but "The Professional" is better

I really liked "The Professional". Portman was so young. I still have it on DVD.

She did a really good job in that. Very impressive for a young kid.

Just finished this:

I recommend it... if you have Amazon Prime. Because then it's free (sort of).

Hey for those Maverick fans who might be hungry for more content, I came across this on YT this morning. It's nearly five minutes of uncut, no annoying music added, flight deck time in an F/A-18. I'd never seen anything like this and it's fascinating so I thought others might enjoy.

TXSTYLE · 06-11-2022, 11:01 AM

The next installment of the PREDATOR franchise....
I am ecstatic it will open on streaming!

Reborn_ · 06-11-2022, 11:22 AM

I’m always in for the predator. Would like a bit more continuity among the movies but I still like them.

tcphoto · 06-11-2022, 12:43 PM

I watched Adam Sandlers, Hustle on Netflix last night and enjoyed it a great deal. I think that Adam gets better with age and the relationship with Queen Latifah and the daughter is nice to see. The real NBA coaches, players and game scenes are well done. I wish that Robert Duvall's part was larger but it made quite the impression.

I hear you. This is actually going to be the Origins story.

It was a nice feel-good movie. I enjoyed it.

tranquility · 06-11-2022, 03:29 PM

I just recalled Shallow Hal because something came up to remind of that. Nice and funny movie. I think the girl w the 'toe' and the hippo were the best looking ones, not Gwen.

That must be some Predator still in grade school...can't even beat some scrawny humans w muskets and arrows?

Fishee · 06-12-2022, 03:49 PM

Talk about jumping the shark.
Was anyone even satisfied with anything but the first, and the second (for the pure camp of it)?

They need to just kill it.

Did anyone watch Uncut Gems?
It was actually really decent, and intense... and so was sandler.

Who knew billy madison would grow up to be talented?

Agreed, the first one was really good, had a great cast and some great dialogue. Since then, ……..
