To the Limit (1995)
Wow my life is forever changed for the better
"Her code name was Colette. Her mission was danger." Well starting with the tagline we can see that this film is a breed apart, films like The Godfather etc dream they had a tagline like that. To The Limit is another classic film by the best production company ever, PM entertainment, Joseph Mehri and Richard Pepin are two kings responsible for some of the best films ever made, the likes of Spielberg, Scorsese and Almodovar weep when PM fire out another classic effortlessly.
The premise of To The Limit begins with the sickest film villain ever, that maniac known as "Jameson, Arthur Jameson" This guy is one crazy mo fo, he wants a special cd which will give him the names and locations of government agents, and will stop at nothing to get it. His interests include S&M, opium smoking and being a general bad-ass. Next some guy gets thrown out of a helicopter, a scene reminiscent of the opening scenes of another film, a film that brings a fond tear to my eye when i say its name, the greatest film ever, Shotgun.
Next i will talk about Agent Colette Dubois/Vickie Linn, The truly talented Anna Nicole Smith soon gets her baps out for the lads and i can only congratulate her for this. She is a fine actor too, perfectly portraying the troubled agent, afraid to open up to anyone but afraid to not be in love, i have mucho empathy for her. Joey Travolta puts on a fine performance as Frank DaVinci a guy so hardcore he takes a shotgun blast at point-blank range and survives, however his lame wife gets shot with a pistol from miles away and dies though. Philly Bambino was my fravourite character, hes a smooth talking pimp who loves the ladies, a little too much one might say, he ends up pulling one who's a little too fiery for him! LOL (you will have to watch to discover the true hilarity of this comment).
The various narrative threads come together in a sugar fueled finale (thus making it sweet as hell). Just as it seems Colette will betray Frank and the rest of the world she wangs the very CD Jameson desired so much into his face, he roars like Fletcher Rivington, the gold cd protruding from his face, Frank and Colette pull out their guns and pump him full of lead justice. The last we see of him is his screaming body falling off the dam, i must mention the special effects here which are by far the best i have ever seen.
To The Limit is both an action film and a historical biography, it could also pass as a porno which is always sweet by my books. Solid performances from all of the cast, excellent sound effects and cinematography combine to make this a thoroughly engrossing film that has improved my life by over 36.8%. And so my review comes to an end, i hope it has been an educational and enlightening experience for you, i wish you the best for your life after reading this and hope you have a safe journey home.

Cold Harvest (1999)
Utter Brilliance
Well where to begin, i brought this film because it stars Gary Daniels, an actor who is consistently sweet and bad-ass in all of his films, he kicks more ass that Adam Pitman (the King of Life) The film is set in the grim near future, a devastated world filled with hardcore survivors, the hardest, and therefore sweetest of these is Gary Daniels, aka. Roland. He is a bounty hunter, tracking down the scum of the earth. The action takes place in a western style town, its so sweet, i cant wait for a comet to hit earth, all they do is play cards, drink & fight, its how things should be in life. This is surely Daniels greatest work since his inspiring "Alex Gaynor" in Rage. Little Ray is the main antagonist and he is truly evil, the virus that ravages the few survivors has a cure, carried by a few people, Little Ray would jeopardize this for his own ends, and is a c*** as a result. After his brother is killed Gary Daniels has to rescue his bro's fine ass wife, she is very fit and has a nice rack. The battle takes place in an archetypal abandoned wasteland, its so good because it is very original, and certainly better than any other film of this genre (future/apocolypse/western/action).
Needless to say Little Ray gets his well deserved comeuppance, he gets his ass kicked, medieval style, i cheered when this took place, and so did every1 else in the world (including Francis Bray)
Gary Daniels is without a doubt THE greatest actor of his generation (with the exception of Stuart Chapin and Rif Hutton), he effortlessly captures the emotions of such a complex and deep character while not compromising his own sweet as 5kg of sugar acting style.
Overall i can only give this film full marks, everything from the atmospheric music to the excellent sets and acting is perfect, this film truly is the work of a King with assistance from God, Jesus and the Pope. ******************************************************** Stars

Shotgun (1989)
Sheer Class
*****contains spoilers*****
Well what can i say, this film is sheer genius, if there was a king of films then this would be the king and the archbishop all at the same time. I was fortunate enough to have a friend who received this from another friend last Christmas as a present, he told me about it and my life has never been the same since. Thankfully we have a Poundland in our town, which is sweet because Poundland is amazing, i brought a dog in there last week in their half price sale.
I can't believe it sometimes, but I feel it inside my heart, Shotgun is awesome. My whole life is based around the teachings of Stuart Chapin as Ian Jones AKA The King of Life, as soon as i reach puberty i'm going to grow a beard and get long hair, then dye it ginger, then i'll be the king and get lots of hot babes like Rhonda and Babara. Rif Hutton as Jones loyal sidekick Max Billings is sweet too, its such a shame to see such a legend only be in one film. The scene between Riley Simms the evil IAD detective and Jones & Billings is euphoric.
Now we get to my favourite character, Fletcher Rivington AKA The Gimp. This guy is the worst kind of filth, hes been into drugs and prostitution since law school, "its how he paid his f*****g tuition fees". He prefers lips to hips too However Jones washes him away with 12 gauge justice in the best showdown ever, even better than the Empire Strikes back!
Needless to say i only have 1000 words so i better stop now, i could talk forever on this film though. This film is the sweetest film ever and if you haven't seen it yet, shame on you. I suggest buying it now, don't go to work tomorrow, spend the day getting this sweet film, believe me you won't be disappointed.
