Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles

Normally the third time is supposed to be a charm but in Crocodile Dundee’s case, it’s a turd. At the beginning of the movie Crocodile Dundee (Paul Hogan) is still doing his thing in Walkabout Creek until his significant other Sue (Linda Kozlowski) gets a job offer in LA. And so the two of them move to LA  along with their son Mick.  This of course leads to a lot of cultural misunderstandings which aren’t very funny.

Nothing But The Truth

“Nothing But The Truth” tells the story of Washington DC reporter Rachel Armstrong (Kate Beckinsale) who gets in trouble with the government after refusing to reveal the source for a story that exposed CIA agent Erica Van Doren (Vera Farmiga). Both women have kids that attend the same school and the scene where Rachel confronts Erica as one soccer mom to another is pretty intense. Equally intense is special prosecutor Patton Dubois (Matt Dillon), who is determined to find out who her source is and puts Rachel behind bars.

End Of Watch

“Training Day” writer David Ayer takes us once again deep in the underbelly of South Central LA with “End Of Watch”, a movie that blows some much-needed fresh air in the buddy cop genre. Join Officer Taylor (Jake Gyllenhaal) and Officer Zavala (Michael Peña) in their police cruiser as they roam the streets looking for baddies while insulting one another. The interaction between the two is amazing and you really feel for them as they get in way over their heads after having come across a Mexican drug cartel.

A Company Man

Hyung-do might seem like just another office grunt in his suit and tie, but the company he works for is actually a front for an organization of hitmen. When the man falls in love and tries to quit the company, he becomes the hunted instead of the hunter.
