Movie Reviews of The Long Kiss Goodnight
Movie Review: Geena Kicks Butt!
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the best girl power movies. Geena kicks butt big time in this action movie about a beautiful mother name Samantha Cain who was born 8 years ago on a beach in New Jersey with no memory of who she was. A freak accident on Christmas Eve stirs up some memories but it isn't until her past comes calling via a few men, who recognize her on the television (looking all gorgeous on a Santa Parade float), who want her dead. The experience jogs her amnesia and her body picks up where it left off. Charlie is her name and killing is her game. And she's good at her job, much to the surprise of everyone around, including her new beau and 8 year old daughter. Now she's on the run trying to keep herself alive while grasping for each new memory trying to figure out exactly why they want her dead. This is one of my favourite Geena Davis films.Movie Review: Hard to keep!
Summary: 5 Stars
Over the last ten years, I've owned about 8 copies of this movie, I lend it out to friends that are looking for something fun... They end up forgetting to give it back after they share it with other friends.
The long kiss goodnight, isn't literature, it's just fun, with great action, Ms. Davis is the First Great Female Action star here. She's good, she's bad, she's mean, and she's in the PTA. The one liners are hilarious!
If you are looking for a fun, violent, cheesy action movie, and you don't get offended at a bit of profanity, then this is a great popcorn movie to share!
Movie Review: CHEFS DO THAT!
Summary: 5 Stars
Once in a while you happen to stumble across a great movie. The cover looked interesting, so I figured I'd rent it. I'm really happy I saw this movie! I thought the story was great, there was a lot of action from beginning to end, and the acting was great, especially from Geena Davis. I love the part when she's looking in the mirror, and her image slits her throat, that was great! This movie is action-packed! Highly recommended!Movie Review: Compatible careers: schoolteacher - spy
Summary: 4 Stars
Up front I have to say this is one of my favorite action adventure female lead movies. Geena Davis does a great job as schoolteacher Samantha Caine who is trying to find out who she is because she only remembers the last eight years of her life starting when she woke up pregnant on the beach in New Jersey.
She is in a car accident and starts to have glimmers of a past. Suddenly she knows how to use knives and thinks she might have been a chef. But theres a lot more going on and it's darker and more dangerous than she ever thought her past would be.
The characters are great and well cast. If you watch you can actually see the transistion from Samantha to Charly in her eyes and facial muscles. That's pretty good acting. The only things that put me off was that the swearing especially by Charly was so totally inappropriate. Not that swearing wasn't called for but it's not how women swear -- there are appropriate derivations of the common male swearing.
It's a movie that's not totally believable but if you're willing to suspend belief it's fun ride from discovery to gun battles to final confrontation and end.
Movie Review: Baby Boom
Summary: 4 Stars
There are two ways to take this movie. The first is to sit stupefied at the plot holes, improbable kinetics, life-saving coincidences and stock plot devices. The second is just to enjoy the ride: Geena Davis with guns and knives, Samuel L. Jackson as the low humor relief, and an ending action sequence so unlikely, so over the top, that you are forced to conclude that the movie is a parody of the action genre.
