“Dangerous” Action Movie With Mel Gibson and Scott Eastwood

action, thriller, , , ,

Written by Christopher Borrelli and directed by David Hackl, Dangerous follows ex-con Dylan Forrester, played by Scott Eastwood. He attempts to reform his life outside of prison by seeing a psychiatrist, played by Mel Gibson.

In the trailer, Gibson’s portrayal of the psychiatrist is accurate, having psychotic episodes. Because Dylan’s brother dies under mysterious circumstances, he risks his freedom by taking off to find answers about his brother’s death.

The eccentric psychiatrist stays in touch by phone to ensure his patient remains stable. In fact, it is the psychiatrist who has lost his marbles, which is fun to watch in the trailer. During this time, Dylan is sidestepping the FBI agent, played by Famke Janssen, and confronting a gang of mercenaries who are also in the same pursuit as Dylan. The leader of the thugs, played by Kevin Durand, is hellbent on discovering the secrets. So, Dylan has to use his criminal mind to survive his latest pursuit.

The thriller also stars Tyrese Gibson.

“Ambulance” Astonishingly Speeds and Flips

action, ,

Directed by Michael Bay, Ambulance takes place in Los Angeles within a single day. A husband and father, played by Abdul-Mateen II, tells his war buddy, played by Jake Gyllenhaal, he’s desperate because his wife has a severe illness that costs $231K. To solve the problem of getting enough money for her surgery, Jake’s character suggests they rob a bank.

The bank heist doesn’t go as planned, and they hijack an ambulance driven by a paramedic, played by Eiza Gonzalez, that’s transporting a police officer in critical condition.

Bay helms this movie as a remake of the Danish film of the same name directed by Laurits Munch-Petersen in 2005. The project passed several directors’ hands with the original script of having the two bank robbers brothers. The story changed when Mateen came on board, and the two brothers became fellow soldiers.

Garret Dillahunt, Keir O’Donnell, A Martinez and Moses Ingram also star in the movie.

Directed by Lana Wachowski, if The Matrix Resurrections is as good as its trailers, we are in for a great franchise rebirth starring Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss, Neil Patrick Harris and Jada Pinkett Smith.

It’s so cool that “White Rabbit” by Jefferson Airplane plays throughout the trailer. The storyline is just enough so as not to ruin the outcome.

Directed by the master of planetary disaster, Roland Emmerich brings us Moonfall. The perfect escapism we need today. A mysterious force knocks the Earth’s Moon from its orbit around and sends it hurtling on a collision course with us as we know it. 

The main characters in the movie tell us that the world is on the brink of destruction, with mere weeks of impact. 

Patrick Wilson portrays astronaut “Brian Harper” surrounded by a mysterious force in the sci-fi epic MOONFALL.
Halle Berry portrays former astronaut and NASA Deputy Director “Jacinda Fowler” conducting an emergency shuttle launch to save the world in the sci-fi epic MOONFALL.

Along comes NASA executive and former astronaut Jo Fowler, played by Halle Berry. She’s convinced that she has the key to saving us all. Still, only one astronaut from her past, Brian Harper, played by Patrick Wilson, and a conspiracy theorist, K.C. Houseman, played by John Bradley, believe her. 

John Bradley portrays Moon conspiracy theorist “K.C. Houseman” peering out the window of the Endeavour Space Shuttle in the sci-fi epic MOONFALL.

The cast impressed me, including Michael Peña, Charlie Plummer, Kelly Yu, Eme Ikwuakor, Carolina Bartczak and Donald Sutherland.

These unlikely heroes will mount an impossible last-ditch mission into space, leaving behind everyone they love, only to discover that our Moon is not what we think it is.

It’s good to see Donald Sutherland in this clip.
