A mini review of the latest lot of weeklies from the local hire store!
- Seize the Day
- Assassins
- Save the Tiger
- Serendipity
Seize the Day – Robin Williams in a fine dramatic role as a 40 year old man whose life is falling to pieces. Back-stabbed by his boss, his wife and his father he is a man shackled by responsibility and guilt. The one positive in his life (his girlfriend) is pushed to the periphery as he struggles to get his life back on track. Distressing.
Assassins – From the writers of The Matrix, this action movie stars Sylvester Stallone and Antonio Banderas as duelling hitmen. Banderas is keen to eliminate Stallone to claim the top spot as the best hitman. Stallone is sick of the business and wants out. A smooth storyline, good acting, nothing that really grabbed me.
Save the Tiger – A wonderful dramatic performance by Jack Lemmon, another man down on his luck.
Serendipity – John Cusack, Kate Beckinsale chick flick.
