The Hunt
Twelve strangers wake up in a clearing. They don't know where they are, or how they got there. They don't know they've been chosen - for a very specific purpose - The Hunt.

Initial reaction at beginning?
*"This is stupid & gratuitous. I don't think I'm gonna finish this.
Liberals hunting Conservatives.
I can see why they didn't want to release this when they were going to."*

Got interesting along the way.
Worth the time & the $1.80 from Redbox.

Nice eye candy in the main female character.

***Last Full Measure
(y)(y)***

Great Cast.
Engaging Story.
Very Emotional throughout especially the ending.
Recommend...............

The true story of Vietnam War hero William H. Pitsenbarger, a USAF Pararescue medic who saved over sixty men in the U.S. Army's 1st Infantry Division before making the ultimate sacrifice in one of the bloodiest battles of the war. Thirty-two years later, Pentagon staffer Scott Huffman investigates a decades-long Congressional Medal of Honor request for Pitsenbarger and uncovers a high-level conspiracy prompting him to put his career on the line to seek justice for the fallen airman.

DVD is deeply scratched and unplayable. Redbox to their credit is issuing me a credit and pulling this one from circulation.
Going to try a different box and hopefully get a better copy.

The Last Full Measure was excellent. Very strong performances by Christopher Plummer, Ed Harris, Samuel Jackson and William Hurt.

There were 2 extras I enjoyed on the disc, one was a pictorial history of Pitsenbarger's short life and the other was the movie premiere in his hometown of Piqua, OH.

CLASSIC!!!!

OMG that was so bad !

So bad it was fantastic!! After watching 1950s and 60s Godzilla and crew movies from Japan where they dubbed the English in and peoples' mouth movements never matched the dialogue, when the Japanese scientist in this movie moved his lips for like 5 seconds to say "NO" I was just ROTFLMAO!!!

The Outpost

True Story
Dragged for the 1st half. The whole second half was the battle. Which was intense as hell. Made me wonder how anyone could come back to a normal civilized civilian life after experiencing something like that.
Trying to be another 13 Hours in Benghazi but didn't really make it.

Worth the $2 from Redbox if you can't find anything else.

yeah - it was like "where's the worst place we could possibly locate the base?"

They wrote out Orlando Bloom pretty early on.
