Drag Me To Hell
Enjoyed it but the Evil Dead gags/homages got pretty tiresome and the ending was way to predictable. The Condemed Good fun despite it being way to drawn out and the awful nu-metal/radio rock soundtrack. Sure Endgame and The Running Man did it better but this was a pretty dope modern action flick (which are sadly few and far between these days).

It had potential... but a really silly "villain" ruined it for me.

L'armee des Ombres AKA Army of Shadows (1969). In short, this was a non-spectacular masterpiece by Jean-Pierre Melville. This is a somber tale of a cell of freedom fighters for the Resistance in France during the Occupation, considered to be terrorists by the Germans. There are no superheroes here, just ordinary men and women called up to an extaordinary duty. What is incredible about this flick is not the action, but the realities of the lives that they must live. Of course there are a couple of "action" scenes, but even they are approached from an almost dull manner. The characters of this flick are forced to live tragic, empty, and isolated lives in order to attempt to make a difference, which they never really seem able to do, especially since they are up against the massive forces of the occupation. Instead, this flick centers on the lives of the Freedom Fighters as they are forced to move from hideout to hideout, faced with the reaility that each and every one of them will probably be called upon to commit some unspeakable act, such as execute one of their own, before they meet their own lonely and tortuous demise. Occassionally there is some action, where they are either being chased or are trying to save a comrade. The acting was on the whole supreme, but the lead part off Lino Ventura was absolutely amazing. A brilliant piece of cinema. Ashe.
