Liam Neeson stars in Retribution, an immersive ticking-clock thriller in a high-octane ride of redemption and revenge.
Directed by Nimrod Antal, the story begins with a mysterious caller who puts a bomb under his car seat, Matt Turner, played by Neeson. Then, a high-speed chase occurs across the city to complete specific tasks. Matt is in a race against time to save his kids from a bomb in the back seat of the car he’s driving, following a stranger’s dangerous instructions.
Jack Campion, Noma Dumezweni, Matthew Modine and Emily Kusche also star.
Written and directed by Jonathan Hensleigh, The Ice Road is intense as you watch the film clips. The Netflix trailer is available on the streaming channel. Still, these two clips are nerve-wracking as they attempt their rescue mission.
When a remote diamond mine collapses in the far northern regions of Canada, an ice driver, played by Liam Neeson, orchestrates a rescue mission. The catch is they have to drive their 18-wheelers over a frozen ocean to save the miner’s lives. The waters were thawing, and they confronted threats they didn’t see coming.
Also starring are Marcus Thomas, Laurence Fishburne, Benjamin Walker, and Amber Midthunder.
Directed by F. Gary Gray, Men In Black: International follows an upstart known as Agent M, played by Tessa Thompson. She joins the group and partners with Agent H, played by Chris Hemsworth. MIB has always protected the Earth from the scum of the universe.
However, in this new adventure, they tackle their biggest global threat to date: a mole in the Men in Black organization.
The movie also stars two stellar actors, Emma Thompson and Liam Neeson. Hemsworth looks yummy.
The third trailer tells us the whole story and what the CGI includes, with Thompson’s character stating at the beginning of the trailer, “We are a rumor.” It looks like a no-brainer and popcorn entertainment.
Directed by Hans Petter Moland, Cold Pursuit follows a snowplow driver, played by Liam Neeson. He seeks revenge against drug dealers because they killed his son.
The movie is based on the 2014 Norwegian film In Order of Disappearance, which Moland also directed. Stellan Skarsgard of the Mamma Mia franchise played Neeson’s role.
The screenplay is by Frank Baldwin. His screenwriting credits are limited, but he scripted a movie that is in pre-production called The Godmother.
The Cold Pursuit also stars Laura Dern, Emmy Rossum, and Tom Bateman.
The trailer tells the story, and the music is upbeat and adds irony to the situation.
The clip “Things We Do” shows the underlying humor of the story. Neeson is in dark colors and a parka, while the other guy is in shorts and light colors. The serene snow-covered mountains in the background for the master shot are incongruous with the tension of Neeson’s character.
The Blu-ray/DVD and streaming of the movie is not happening. The trailer is fun and shows how the film is a comedy. The serious side is losing a son, but his father gets revenge.
Getting revenge is when the movie gets funny. Watch the trailer and see for yourself. It’s funny.
I just watched this movie with my daughter about three weeks ago when Schindler’s List became available on Amazon Prime—my daughter’s first time seeing the movie. She loved it. I don’t blame her because I loved it just as much as I did the first time, or perhaps more.
Now, the stark, black-and-white movie is being remastered to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the movie directed by Steven Spielberg. I am sure Spielberg views this movie as one of the most significant endeavors in cinema history. The re-release of the movie with picture and sound digitally remastered includes 4K, Dolby Cinema, and Dolby Atmos. The commemorative continues with a limited theatrical engagement on December 7, 2018, in theaters across the United States and Canada. Universal Studios meticulously restored the movie from the original film negative in pristine high definition and supervised by Spielberg.
The only color in the movie is the little girl with a red coat. A symbol of Shindler’s connection and realization of his necessity to save the lives of Jews is his only desire to build pots and pans.
Winner of seven Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director, this fantastic true story follows the enigmatic Oskar Schindler, played by Liam Neeson, who personally saved the lives of more than 1,100 Jews during the Holocaust.
So many stories are told about the Holocaust. Stories about brave people like Schindler are the triumph. Schindler made a difference for those who survived one of the darkest chapters in human history.
Schindler’s List is an overwhelming story about a man who learned to change his flamboyant lifestyle and take the courage and faith to be strong enough to save the lives of Jews.
Some highlights of technical and artistic achievement are composer John Williams, screenwriter Steven Zaillian, and director of photography Janusz Kaminski, including art directors Allan Starski and Ewa Braun and editor Michael Kahn.
The cast alone is impressive, including Ben Kingsley, Ralph Fiennes, Caroline Goodall, Jonathan Sagalle, and Embeth Davidtz.
Whether you sat in the dark theater and watched this movie, on your flat TV screen at home, or not at all, watch this trailer and see if you do not shed a tear for the visual and musical impact.
Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, The Commuter follows Michael Woolrich, played by Liam Neeson, who is in midst of his daily commute. He is an insurance salesman. A normal type of guy who used to be a cop. He is contacted by a mysterious woman on the train. She forces him to uncover the identity of a hidden passenger on the train before the last stop.
The movie has a great cast including Elizabeth McGovern, from Downton Abby, Vera Farmiga, Patrick Wilson, and Sam Neil.
Just watching the trailer, I can tell the movie is suspenseful. Neeson is so good at playing these type of roles. It is unique for him playing an everyman not some high-skilled gunman who has a kidnapped daughter.
The behind-the-scenes clips are so awesome to watch because you learn about filmmaking. They answer the question: How did they do that?
The Commuter’s Blu-ray/DVD combo pack hits the streets with two never-before-seen featurettes that focus on the cast’s experience shooting the film and the technical details of shooting on a train. The trailer is so intense.
I saw the movie on my flight from Denver to Sacramento. The movie started off good but was predictable. If you want to kill a couple of hours on a phone, this is the movie to watch.
The movie clip below shows the intensity of Liam Neeson.
Here is the final trailer.
The domestic trailer doesn’t look all that different. What do you think?
