I was on a journey to watch and review one movie every 24 hours. That became tiresome. I'm now much less ambitious and moved to a more manageable pace of one movie review every now and then. The blog title remains the same...I'm too lazy to think of a new one. Disclaimer: I'm using a VPN to bypass all security protocols in order to stream netflix movies/tv shows. Do not judge. This is survival.

Day 19 - Harry Brown
Michael Caine can do no wrong...this fact was solidified in my brain when I saw Dirty Rotten Scoundrels as a little kid. Further evidence - Michael Caine turns into a badass who takes on the local gang to avenge his best friend's death in this mesmerizing UK film called Harry Brown. There isn't another movie I can compare this too. It's gory and clean at the same time thanks to the direction of Daniel Barber who normally shoots commercial ads. Quite impressive shot selections and I wouldn't be surprised if the actors who played the gang members were actually gang members. As always, Michael Caine is brilliant. Rating - Pick it up at your nearest redbox and get ready for a spine tingling ride.
