Two movies:
First, In Harm's Way, Otto Preminger's film about early naval conflicts with the Japanese in WWII. Given the time (1965), this great film still exhibited too much attention to the interpersonal relationships, but that's not a detriment, because the thrust of the naval warfare story remained paramount.
A sterling all star cast, headed by John Wayne, which highlighted a few actors who would become big later make this an enthralling treatise of men at war and those who love and support them.
Next was viewing of a forgotten gem: Stand Alone, starring Charles Durning. I didn't know that I needed to see a film about an old fat guy battling cartel drug runners was a must-see, but it was! Underplayed in terms of typical 1980s action posing, it's a simple story with great rewards - and Pam Grier, who plays a public defender, actually *SPOILER* gets to kill at least one bad guy is a huge plus (but, alas, no boob shots). Loved it!

3 movies on Netflix - all 1st time viewings:
First was Jurassic Park: Rebirth. It was fine, but not a sparkling gem of the franchise - they're all good, but this one was too much hiding and watching, but still a decent amount of action. Scarlett Johansson has been in action films before, and she's fully believable as a cynical, battle-hardened gun for hire. Good enough.
Next was War Machine starring TV's Reacher star Alan Ritchson. High adrenaline action, with US Ranger candidates on their last trial, 'the Death March' who run into something that was not on the menu. Fast paced action - I'll probably watch it again in a few months.
Next was Hotel Mumbai, a gut-wrenching, tense accounting of one of the 12 terror attacks that Pakistani islamist scum perpetrated on innocent victims in 2008, centering on the takeover of the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel. It's brutal watching teenage gunmen machine-gun fleeing women in the back. A film like this makes me happy for every islamist monster our military is killing in Iran. Warning - there are happy endings for some of the characters, but precious few (in fact, two).

3 movies:
First up was Trap House, a Dave Bautista flick on Netflix. It's fine, but nothing special, with enough gaping logic/logistics holes to fill the Albert Hall - but hey... we're not looking for Lawrence of Arabia or The Great Escape here, are we. It's got enough action to rate as a Bautista movie.
Next was the gripping survival flick The Shallows starring Blake Lively (who gives maybe the best performance of her career - mostly in a bikini). It's one of the best shark movies since Jaws II. It's gritty, fully logical and the tension is so thick you could cut it with... well, with some kind of tension cutting device. A great watch.
Next was the devastatingly awesome Paradise Highway starring Juliette Binoche (no glam role here), the great Morgan Freeman, but the film is owned by Hala Finley as the 12 year-old sex trafficking victim. Her performance and character unfold in a slow and completely natural way. And the film is not preachy at all.

The first and only season of Jett, starring the exquisite Carla Gugino. I checked, and the storyline is wrapped up at the end, with a new, separate cliffhanger for season 2, which never happened. It's okay so far, mostly because Carla is always gorgeous.
