RED is an extremely humorous movie. RED stands for "retired and extremely dangerous" in this movie. It is rated PG-13 and runs approximately 111 minutes long. It stars Bruce Willis as Frank Moses, an ex-CIA agent. He discovers that there is a string of murders that are gunning down members of a task force that held a part of a civilian slaughter in Guatemala. He meets up with a group of "RED" CIA agents, and they begin to unravel the story of what is happening.
I loved this movie! It is a great comedy with an amazing cast. John Malkovich plays as a satellite weary lunatic. He creates a great character and has an amazing acting performance. He embodies the dream of what I want to become when I grow old. The movie is great and I recommend it to anyone.

The Replacements Review
The Replacements is an inspirational football movie that strikes every athletes' dream, a second chance. It runs approximately 98 minutes long. It is rated PG-13 and was released in 2000. Keanu Reeves stars as Shane Falco, a boat scraper that used to be a college superstar. He is approached by a professional coach to join a replacement team. The coach was creating this team because the professional players were on a strike about salaries. The replacement team had to band together, become a team, and win 3 out of 4 games to go to the playoffs for the first time in 7 years.
This movie is amazing in my opinion. It truly captures the dream of a second chance. I love how you can watch and see how the team starts to band together. The best part is that they don't have to physically say that they are banding together, but is just happens through the body language and actions. The team is filled with tons of strange characters that just add to the awkward situation. I would recommend this movie to anyone that wants to see a good movie.

Boondock Saints Review
Boondock Saints is a fantastic movie that stars Willem Dafoe, Sean Patrick Flanery, and Norman Reedus. It runs approximately 108 minutes, released in 1999, and is rated R. The main story is about two brothers that are caught in a bad place with the Russian Mafia, and they begin to kill the scum of the city. They meet up with their friend, Rocco, and he assists them with their quest for good. Willem Dafoe stars as an FBI detective that is caught in a moral delemma between the law and what he feels is right.
This movie is an amazing acting performance of all the actors. They create a realism that is outstanding and deserving of dozens of awards. It is one of my favorite movies because of the comedy, action, and drama that lies within the script. If you are offended by multiple f-bombs and seeing cat guts sprayed across the wall of an apartment, this movie probably isn't for you.

"And Shepherds we shall be
For thee, my Lord, for thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand
Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee
And teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In Nomene Patris Et Filii Spiritus Sancti."

Braveheart Review
Hello everyone, today I will be reviewing one of my all-time favorite movies, Braveheart. This amazing movie was released in 1995, is rated R, and runs approximately 177 minutes. Mel Gibson plays a Scottish commoner, William Wallace, who is provoked by the English government when they kill his wife. This act makes Wallace snap, recruit an army, and rebel against the English tyranny. During the film, Wallace and his followers face many struggles: Love, pride, loss, and deception.
This is one of my all-time favorite movies due to the fact that Mel Gibson directed the movie, as well as star with a fantastic performance. He embodies the symbol of hope and righteousness in this epic tale. When he speaks, he fills every word with emotion and courage. The film is shot in a gritty style that puts the viewer into a suspension of disbelief for the entire film. In my opinion, this film is a classic that everyone should see at some point in their lives.
