'Goldie' DVD Review

Our story is about a young woman named Goldie (Slick Woods). Now, Goldie has always dreamed of being a star and she is trying to accomplish her goal. The problem is that life keeps getting into the way. Her Mother has been lock up and she has to care for her younger sisters Sherrie and Supreme. Goldie also has to keep what’s left of her family together before child welfare services separates them all. Goldie has dreams of owning a golden fur coat. She’s been wanting it for some time but doesn’t have the cash to buy it.

Goldie has always wanted to be a star and has always believed that she could be one. The only thing in her way is the life she has been dealt. She will do anything for her sisters and she will beg for an inhaler for one of them when they have an asthma attack. She doesn’t steal it but she surely does flirt with the pharmacist to get it. The back drop to our film is New York and it’s pure New York. Meaning it’s not the glamorous side but the seedier.

Director Sam de Jong does a wonderful job on putting this altogether. It’s raw but glamorous all at the same time. You find yourself sitting back and cheering Goldie on to live her dream. You don’t want to see her fail.

Slick Woods is making her debut in the film business with this film. She is a supermodel and now she can also put actor on her resume. There will be more parts coming her way and we will see her in more films.

Film Movement brings this wonderful film to DVD on April 14th, 2020. The quality of the DVD is excellent. The sights and sounds are superb and they help make the movie. This is definitely one coming of age story that you will watch over and over. Goldie is an enjoyable film that you will want to have in your personal library. That way you can go back and get it off the shelf and watch the dreams of a young 18 year old come true.

'Bravestorm' DVD Review

It’s the year 2050 and Earth is literally destroying itself. Humanity is all but dead. The invaders called the Kyrgyz has turned the atmosphere into a horrific stew. The Kasuga brothers have built a time machine so they can possibly go back in the past  to stop the invasion before it happens.

Haruka (Chihiro Yamamoto) and Koji (Shunsuke Daito) make it back and actually locate the roboticist Kenichiro Kurenai (Hisashi Yoshizawa). They talk him into building the robot they call the Red Baron. The Red Baron is going to go up against the invaders Black Baron in hopes of destroying the invading forces. The brothers have to go back on a second trip into the past to pick up the one man who can drive the Red Baron. The brothers do find Ken (Shu Watanabe) which also happens to be the doctors brother. Ken is a bare knuckle boxer but is also skilled at driving robots.

The climax of the film is interesting to say the least. The ironic part of the film is that the reason the Kyrgyz attacked Earth is because humanity was on the verge of killing itself off anyway.
Alliance Entertainment brings this action packed film to DVD on April 7th, 2020. The quality of the DVD is fantastic. The sights and sounds are superb and you will enjoy this one over and over.
Junya Okabe is Writer/Director and also in charge of special effects for this film and what is truly remarkable is that it’s his first. He really does a remarkable job. This is one of those films that you’ll want to get and have it in that personal library.

'Their Finest Hour: 5 British WWII Classics' DVD Review

In remembrance of the 75th anniversary of the end of WWII there comes some of the best of British movies about the war. These classics include 'Dunkirk' (1958), 'Went The Day Well' (1942), 'The Colditz Story' (1955), 'The Dam Busters' (1955), 'Ice Cold In Alex' (1958).

'Dunkirk', is the story of how in May 1940 London was living in a sense of false security. The Battle of France was going well for the Germans. The French army and British forces were surrounded on the shores of Dunkirk. One of the greatest rescue missions to ever take place was taking shape. This is a wonderful movie to watch and enjoy.

'Went The Day Well', is a story of the quiet Village of Bradley End. The villagers did not realize that the Lorries that had pulled onto the village green full of what looked liked Royal Engineers were actually disguised German paratroopers. This is an excellent film and is a joy to watch.

'The Colditz Story', is about the medieval fortress that was being used as a prison that held some of the most contentious Allied POWS. The fortress was 400 miles from any neutral territory. It was located in the heart of Saxony and was believed to be secure. John Mills plays a British officer tries to escape by navigating the subterranean tunnels to freedom.

'The Dam Busters', is a story about the 617 squadron that used a bouncing bomb to help destroy the Ruhr dams. Led by Air Ace Wing Commander Guy Gibson (Richard Todd) is in charge of carrying out the dangerous night raids. Excellent action and great film to watch and enjoy.

'Ice Cold In Alex', is a story of the war in Northern Africa. Captain Anson (John Mills) is tired and thirsty. He is separated from his unit. He evacuates from Alexandria in an ambulance and along the way he picks up some passengers, one of which he believes is a German spy. This is such an awesome movie.
