Movie Reviews of Black Dog
Movie Review: BLACK DOG RULES!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
My world changed when I saw this movie. First of all, that scene where Randy Travis and Meatloaf first meet became a has become a metaphor for the relationship that I have with my daughter. Even though she is young, the understanding that we have gained about each other from watching this movie is truly fascinating.
Secondly, Patrick Swayze's character has been a motivation for me in my short story writing. In fact, since seeing the movie, I have written several characters into my stories that share various aspects of his personality, ranging the rough edges he demonstrated toward all of the women in his life to his unpredictable intellect, which ultimately saves his truck and all of mankind. (if you really think deeply enough about it)
Anyway, if you are looking for just another movie, then go rent something like "Bounce" or "She's Got Mail"; but if you're looking for groung-breaking, life-altering adventures with a mind-bending, trucker twist, then please do yourself a favor and buy this movie.
Movie Review: Exploding Trucks Are Cool!
Summary: 5 Stars
The movie's plot is simplistic. Jack Crews (Swayze) and Earl (Randy Travis) must deliver a load of illegal weapons or the terrorists kill Jack's family. In addition, they must fend off Red (Meat Loaf), a fanatical, Bible verse- yelling madman, and his redneck thugs, who are attempting to steal the cargo. Anyone who enjoys explosions and big rigs will like this movie. Red's men try to hijack the guns several times, and each time their attempts fail, usually with some impressive crash. In fact, all of Red's crew are either blown up, splattered all over the pavement, or crushed within a truck cab. There are some good lines about how juice causes gas and what ATF really stands for. It's not the most intellectual movie out there, and Swayze's facial expression never does change, but with the number of explosions and huge trucks, who cares? In any event, you'll find out how deadly trucking really can be.Movie Review: Black Dog is one of the best
Summary: 5 Stars
When i watched Black Dog for the first time i thought is was one of the best movies i had ever seen. Now that i have seen it i watch it over and over again. What makes the movie so great is that it has awsome soundtrack to go along with it. From Randy Travis singing "My Worst Fear" and Rhett Akins singing Eddie Rabbits "Driving My Life Away". I would recomend that everyone watch this movie at least once in your life. I would expecially recomend it if you are a truck driver your-self. It is so easy to comprehend with what they go through. Even if you arnt a truck driver your-self it gives yo a little respect of what they have to go through(just hopefully not so much drama) with dealing being away from the ones that you love, for just doing the job that they choose to do.Movie Review: Great Movie Very Under-rated
Summary: 5 Stars
When I saw this movie I had never heard of it before. For some reason it really never got the coverage and advertisement it deserved. This movie is a great action film with a great plot. I thought this movie was good enough that I went out and bought it for my DVD collection. I wished that it had a 1.85 wide screen or a full screen option instead of just the 2.35 version which is a bit like watching a strip of the movie Instead of filling the screen, but overall that was not too distracting. The sound mix didn't stand out as being exceptionally good or bad. I really didn't notice the sound quality, it was just a good movie. If you haven't seen this movie I highly recommend that you get it today.Movie Review: DRIVING MY LIFE AWAY
Summary: 5 Stars
THAT'S THE WAY TO PUT INTO WORDS THE LIFE OF A TRUCKER. IN THIS MOVIE THOSE WORDS ARE TAKEN LITERALLY. PATRICK SWAYZE DOES AN OUTSTANDING JOB, AND RANDY TRAVIS AS WELL AS MEATLOAF MAKE IT EASY TO BE OUTSTANDING WITH THE GREAT SUPPORT THEY GIVE TO THIS MUST SEE MOVIE. HOW ANYONE COULD GIVE THIS MOVIE ANYTHING LESS THEN A FIVE IS BEYOND ME, I WOULD GIVE IT A TEN IF I COULD. HELL, IT'S A FREE COUNTRY. YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST ON A SCALE OF 1-5 I GIVE BLACKDOG A 10. I AM A TRUCKER AND TO ALL MY FELLOW TRUCKERS OUT THERE THIS IS A MUST SEE MOVIE. I HAVE IT RIGHT UP THERE WITH "CONVOY". ONE LAST NOTE, I ALSO OWN THE SOUNDTRACK TO THIS MOVIE. ONE WORD "AWESOME".
