Produced and directed by Xiao Feng, Air Strike follows a U.S. Army colonel, played by Bruce Willis. The studios call this movie a pulse-pounding epic about the courage of China’s citizens during WWII.
The colonel trains Chinese pilots for Japanese battle fighters, and a hotheaded pilot, played by Ye Liu, begs to fly a mighty bomber that could stop the attacks. I bet he flies the craft.
In another storyline, a team of spies and refugees must carry an advanced decoder device through the war-torn countryside.
Air Strike is Feng’s second movie. His first is Hushed Roar.
Also starring are Adrien Brody and Willis’ daughter Rumer.
The screenplay is by Ping Chen, whose other credits include episodic television.

Jacob barrels down a path of bloodshed that initiates an explosive counterattack and brings all three men to the breaking point.
The screenplay is by Bryce Hammons and this is his first movie credit as screenwriter. Miller has directed Willis before in similar low-budget movies – Vice and The Prince.
Written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan, he brings collectively the tales of two of his champion originals— Unbreakable and Split. Combining the two movies into Glass, Shyamalan is calling the movie a comic-book thriller.
Bruce Willis returns as David Dunn and Samuel L. Jackson returns as Elijah Price with his pseudonym Mr. Glass. Joining from Split are James McAvoy, reprising his role as Kevin Wendell Crumb and the multiple identities who reside within, and Anya Taylor-Joy as Casey Cooke, the only captive to survive an encounter with The Beast.
After the finale of Split, Glass starts with Dunn pursuing Crumb’s superhuman figure of The Beast in a series of intensifying encounters, while the shadowy presence of Price emerges as an arranger holding secrets vitally important for both men.
Sarah Paulson joins the cast as the psychiatrist treating these three men. Other cast members include Spencer Treat Clark and Charlayne Woodar.
The next trailer tells more of the story, which is rare for Shyamalan.
True to Shyamalan style of promoting his movies, he is not saying much about the movie and the trailer shows awkward edits and extreme action.
The first movie clip released, and I am still trying to understand the story behind this movie. In the interview I’ve watched, I get the idea they are superheroes at some level.
This movie is strange and unreal. I am not sure what Shyamalan is trying to accomplish in this story. One of the producers in an interview on my YouTube Channel said he wanted people to get the messages “Why are we hear?” “What is the meaning of life?” All I can say is this is a strange way to put it.
The movie clips show how Glass is trying to get these guys to do something. I am not sure what, though. This is a very different and strange movie about superheroes. The main point is this is real or unreal. I am not sure.
The next featurette sums up the last movie of the trilogy, and what M. Night Shyamalan had in mind when he decided to make this movie. It’s pretty clear you need to have seen Unbreakable because he refers to it in Glass quite a bit.
The three clips show more of the story and how James McAvoy’s character is the most important aspect of the movie. I am not sure I understand the movie, but McAvoy’s acting is incredible.
The next featurette shows more of McAvoy’s talent when Anya Cliparette visits with the Beast.
The Blu-ray/DVD is available with the movie streaming on the main platforms. I’ve heard mix reviews about the movie. If you haven’t seen it yet, now is your chance.
The bonus features are epic with a look at each main player in the story, and how they work within the framework of Shyamalan’s creation.
M. Night Shyamalan works with the same crew from film to film. The cast and crew share stories of working on his productions is like being with family. The Blu-ray or DVD is filled with deleted scenes and alternate ending.
Directed by Eli Roth, Death Wish is a remake of a very cool classic movie that starred the late Charles Bronson. The story follows Dr. Paul Kersey, played by Bruce Willis. The surgeon only sees the aftermath of Chicago violence when he is rushed to his ER. His wife, played by Elisabeth Shue, and college-age daughter, played by Camila Morrone, are viciously attacked in their suburban home. With the police overloaded with crimes, Paul, burning for vengeance, hunts his family’s assailants to deliver justice. As the anonymous slayings of criminals capture the media’s attention, the city wonders if this deadly vigilante is a guardian angel or a grim reaper. Fury and fate collide in the intense action-thriller.
The new poster is so much better, with the red color showing the violence of the movie.
Screenplay by Joe Carnahan, who is from my hometown, brings the classic story up to date. Eli Roth, whose credits are mainly producing, has directed unfamiliar movies like Cabin Fever and Knock Knock for horror movie fans.
The Blu-ray and DVD are on the streets, so you can see the movie in the comfort of your home if you have or have not seen the movie yet.
The movie trailer is good and shows a contemporary story with ever so silent Willis befitting Bronson, who was also an actor with few words. The poster conveys the same stark message with a pure white background.
