Mad Dog Time (1996)
Mad Dog Time Review
Yes this is one of the best mafia style movies I have ever seen. I did not realize Jeff Goldblum had made a mafia movie until I caught this movie on a movie channel, possibly on my Independent Films Channel not 100% sure on that though. However I give this a 10 out of 10 simply because every big star in this movie was awesome in their roles, especially Goldblum, but R. Dreyfus, H. Silva, B. Reynolds, J. Bishop L. Bishop, G. Hines, G. Byrne and of course the women in this film Barkin, Layne, Everhart were phenomenal as well. This film is in my top five best ever mafia style movies that necessarily didn't over do it with violence and gun shootouts but it seemed to have just enough violence to make it more realistic and true to life. The story line was great as well and I can't express how much I enjoyed this movie and will buy it on DVD soon! I don't understand what is with Hollywood and why they can't produce great movies such as this one. I agree with a prior comment on how little notoriety this movie got and how hard it is to find it playing on TV, makes little sense to me. But as I always say the best movies don't come out of Hollywood but through Independent films sources more often than not.
At War with the Army (1950)
At War with the Army Review
This was to me one of the funniest movies ever that Dean and Jerry made together. They were absolutely great together sort of like a big brother, little brother relationship that actually worked well on screen for both them playing off of each others weaknesses and strengths. I give this movie 10 stars out of 10! I may be a bit biased since I was too young to remember much of the other comedy duos as Laurel and Hardy, Abbott and Costello and not to take anything away from them as they were great in their own right as well e.t.c.. However, Dean and Jerry were the best ever comedic acting duo and writing this review makes me want to see this movie again real soon! I'm not sure how many times I have seen this movie but suffice it to say at least 5-10 times or more over the years. I would recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys the war time type of movie setting as it made for a great backdrop for a movie. I don't see anyone coming along to ever replace guys like Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis they were truly a once in lifetime experience of great talent and knew how to make an audience laugh and forget about their troubles even if for just a couple of hours at a time. God bless them both!
