The beginning was great. The end was pretty good despite the new soldiers being jobbers. Everything in the middle with the garbage people fucking sucked.

>>68835312
Soldier is awesome. I saw it in theater, so I can't be blamed for its failure.

Pic related is what Rush Hour should have been. Marc Dacascos kicks ten tons of ass in this. Also:

My dad has that one on DVD, might give it a watch when I go home for the weekend.

It was pretty well received when it came out but for some reason it doesn't seem to have stuck around as a classic. Still solid.

Pretty sure it bombed, but it's classic. So is Cutthroat Island.

What is it about late 80s/90s action that is so fuckin' comfy?

>>68835741
Because that's what you watched when you were young.

Fucking great movie. Great dialogue, SLJ is hilarious in it. Super underrated.

I don't know why I like The Postman.
It's 3 fucking hours long, and overall it's a bloated mess.

But I still like it.
the villain is weirdly memorable too

Holy shit, I love the postman and especially it's villain. The guy sold fucking copy machines before the Apocalypse. Fucking yes. YES.

This is 1988, but I love Shoot to Kill.

The main 3 reasons I enjoy it:
>clancy brown is the psychotic villain
>sidney poitier scares a bear away by flapping his arms
>tom berenger is surprisingly funny

Watch it when you're bored at 2am and it'll be a good time.

One of the best 90s movies, period. Action, underrated, whatever. Great film.

>>68836580

I love this too. Are there any other films that have a vibe similar to this one? I really liked the middle of nowhere atmosphere.

>>68835704
Not just bombed but bankrupted Carolco.
>>
>>68835921
Because William Patton is a great character actor. Nothing weird about it. I also enjoy the postman.

The Vanishing Point remake was in 97 and was pretty good. Also based Viggo.

It's from the 80s but I don't care. This film is comfy as fuck. I really love 80s and 90s scifi. Something about the spaceship/weapon/costume design really feels comfy to me. Probably the reason why Aliens is one of my favourite movies of all time. The Colonial Marines were designed so well.
>>
>>68835312
Whatever happened to Jason Scott Lee? After Dragon and Tarzan he disappeared for a long time until buffing up even more and showing up in Soldier only to disappear again.
>>
>>68837366
Yeah he got his own Jungle Book too and vanished in the early 2000's.
>>
>>68835647
Good choice! The fight choreography is based.

Also, first time i saw Brittany Murphy (never seen Clueless right in the 90s back then). Gone too soon.
