Ford v Ferrari

Directed by James Mangold. With Matt Damon, Christian Bale, Jon Bernthal, Caitriona Balfe. American car designer Carroll Shelby and driver Ken Miles battle corporate interference and the laws of physics to build a revolutionary race car for Ford in order to defeat Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1966.

Fantastic acting with a horrifyingly good story. The cars are amazing and everything I love about them is here, but holy moly they’re small little things, aren’t they?

I’m happy to report that just a few short years after adding a new comment karma system, the numbers are now showing as you’d expect them to on your author pages.

Here’s mine: www.myconfinedspace.com/author/tiki-god/

My number went up about 700 points when I got the math working right there, so maybe you too have more karma?

Emma

Directed by Autumn de Wilde. With Anya Taylor-Joy, Johnny Flynn, Mia Goth, Angus Imrie. In 1800s England, a well meaning but selfish young woman meddles in the love lives of her friends.

I wasn’t expecting to enjoy “Emma.” as much as I did, and only watched it because my wife was head over heels excited about seeing it. There’s a strength of story that really kicks in about 20 minutes into the film, but you really have to paying attention to the whole thing or later plot points and conversations are going to make absolutely no sense, so put down the phone or laptop and give it your full attention.

OUCH

The Shining

Directed by Stanley Kubrick. With Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd, Scatman Crothers. A family heads to an isolated hotel for the winter where a sinister presence influences the father into violence, while his psychic son sees horrific forebodings from both past and future.

I hate to admit this, but I’d never seen this film before. I’m a Stanley Kubrick fan, I’m a fan of Jack Nicholson, and Steven King’s adapted stories are usually pretty good, but from what I knew of the movie, it was just about a guy going crazy up in the snow capped mountains. I was under that false assumption until it’s sequel was released and the trailers made no sense to me. I mentioned this to my wife and she set me straight. It’s a fantastic movie and definitely changes how I view “Ready Player One” a little bit. Maybe I’ll go back and re-watch that to see what I missed.

Midway

Directed by Roland Emmerich. With Ed Skrein, Patrick Wilson, Woody Harrelson, Luke Evans. The story of the Battle of Midway, told by the leaders and the sailors who fought it.

I went in fully expecting this to be a mess of a movie with inaccuracies and oddly inserted love stories, but what I got was a heartfelt, well done, and mostly true retelling of the Midway confrontation during WW2. Because they didn’t stray too far from the truth, the actual Midway battle only gets started about an hour into the film, there’s just too much that has to be set up before the battle can take place.

There’s an unfortunate amount of noticeable CGI in the film, but other than a couple weirdly phrased lines (“There’s the man that tried to warn us all of the attack!”), this is a fantastic movie.

Jurassic Park

 

Before seeing Jurassic World film this June read the original, multimillion copy No. 1 bestselling thriller that inspired the first major motion picture Jurassic Park.

 

On a remote jungle island, genetic engineers have created a dinosaur game park.

An astonishing technique for recovering and cloning dinosaur DNA has been discovered. Now one of mankind’s most thrilling fantasies has come true and the first dinosaurs that the Earth has seen in the time of man emerge.

But, as always, there is a dark side to the fantasy and after a catastrophe destroys the park’s defence systems, the scientists and tourists are left fighting for survival…

With this masterful cross of science fiction and action-adventure, Michael Crichton created one of the biggest bestsellers of all time, turned by Steven Spielberg into the highest grossing blockbuster ever in 1993.

 

Currently $1.99 on amazon! I haven’t read this in many many years, but I remember enjoying it.

I’ve purchased a copy for myself, so you’ll see a review from me one day for the book 🙂

The Human Tornado

Directed by Cliff Roquemore. With Rudy Ray Moore, Lady Reed, Jimmy Lynch, Gloria Delaney. Dolemite flees to California, where he helps Queen Bee and her Kung Fu prostitutes battle a local gangster.

About what you would expect from a Rudy Ray Moore flick, entertainingly low budgets with one repeated scene that cracked me up, which is when they were “doing it” in bed and somehow broke the ceiling and made if fall down again.

The Shining

Before Doctor Sleep, there was The Shining, a classic of modern American horror from the undisputed master, Stephen King.

Danny is only five years old, but in the words of old Mr Hallorann he is a ‘shiner’, aglow with psychic voltage. When his father becomes caretaker of the Overlook Hotel, Danny’s visions grow out of control.

As winter closes in and blizzards cut them off, the hotel seems to develop a life of its own. It is meant to be empty. So who is the lady in Room 217 and who are the masked guests going up and down in the elevator? And why do the hedges shaped like animals seem so alive?

Somewhere, somehow, there is an evil force in the hotel – and that, too, is beginning to shine . . .

Currently $2.99 on Amazon.com, I’ve not read this one yet, but I’ve seen the movie (and the movie of the sequel) but I’m told that there’s a bit of a different between the books and the movies.
