Starring Arnold Swarzenegger, Forrest Whittaker, and Johnny Knoxville   The Last Stand is basically the Old West mixed with modern day firepower and a classic action hero. Arnold Swarzenegger plays Sheriff Ray Owens, the sheriff of a small, sleepy town on the U.S./Mexico border. This town also happens to be the last stop of a Mexican drug lord on the run from the FBI.

21 Jump Street B+ write me an essay This was a hilarious and refreshing take on the retro-tv-remake-movie. I laughed at nearly every scene, and I was massively entertained by both lead performances.

Django: Unchained A+ buy cheap software download Django was a perfectly bloody homage to the spaghetti western genre. Setting it against the backdrop of slavery in the south caused for some discomfort among audiences, but I believe effectiveness and originality are at the heart of any great film, and these are qualities present in all of Tarantino’s works. This film exhibits them as expertly as any before. This is also, in my humble opinion, his best dialogue and soundtrack since Pulp Fiction. Lincoln B+ There’s not a lot this movie does wrong, technically speaking. Spielberg and Day-Lewis are both masters…
