  Jacob C.I.S. 1997

  ★★ Watched 05 Feb 2025

  Jacob (Vergel) lives by his own rules taking on the Mayor and whomever that threatens his brand of justice or hurts his love ones.

  Pretty much a straight action with suave lines from Vergel and getting the younger girl. (Mina)

  Leon ng Central Luzon 1980

  ★★ Watched 04 Feb 2025

  A tale of duty and love. Dado (Revilla) an ambitious policeman tries to balance life with his duties.

  The movie is just a series of missions, his brush with corruption and struggle with continuing a relationship with the woman he loves. Very bland with an all too tragic unsatisfying ending.

  Royal Warriors 1986

  ★★★ Watched 07 Apr 2020

  Title don’t do justice on how these characters fought.

  After foiling an escape and hijacking, three people are targeted for vengeance. It is a very straight forward action revenge movie in where the antagonists find a way to really do wipe out budding heroes.
  Teaming up are the Inspector (Yeoh), the other a retiring Japanese cop (Sanada) and a chatty sky marshal (Wong).

  The action scenes were great, and the back story was tight for our villains but really it…

  Attack the Block 2011

  ★★★ Watched 28 Mar 2016

  ATB is a solid debut from Cornish at the helm and starring Boyega as lead. I loved the tough guy image of Moses and each quirkiness of his gang. Dialogue was inherit with the location and was something I enjoyed hearing.
