Dude! Looks good. Checking this out in the next couple of days. Thanks for bringing this to light for me.

Great review! I especially loved the cinematography and the gritty tone of the movie. I'm thankful that Nicholas Cage did not get the role as nobody could have brought that personal angle to Ram like Rourke did. While I'm not necessarily on board with your views of Tomei and Wood in the film, I enjoyed the review. Appreciate the videos too; thanks.

Other than the the incredibly insightful comment immediately above this one, I notice that all the comments on this post are all anti-Scott and in agreement with the writer. I just want to say that while I'm not expert in critical film analysis--in fact, I couldn't have even named you three Scott movies--I saw the list of films you referenced, and I must say, I really liked almost all of them.

While Top Gun is certainly a laughable movie these days, the movie is almost a cult classic in its own right. The Last Boy Scout is extremely entertaining, The Fan was thrilling, Man on Fire is a great movie for both it storyline and emotionally gripping premise. Spy Game
is the best example of all.

A few years back, it was found out amongst my buddies that Spy Game was a good movie and had only been seen by one of us. We watched the movie at my house on a Sunday afternoon, and the group of twenty-something years old loved it.

It seems to me that the general public loves the the films seeing how much money they make, and also how Tony Scott projects continue to showcase Hollywood's best. I loved the post, but I hope. along with many others, that he continues to put out future movies as entertaining as the one's you listed above.
