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.

In the early days of the pandemic the US government turned down an offer to manufacture millions of N95 masks in America

On Jan. 22, weeks before the crisis sent the government scrambling for masks, Texas manufacturer Prestige Ameritech offered to restart four mothballed production lines. Federal officials did not take the company up on it.
