I have just watched Sorcerer (1977) - available for free on YouTube - and this movie, back-to-back. They are two completely different animals, so comparison is really futile here. I can still enjoy this movie on its own, but I need to point out a few things that massively irritated me: 1. Dead cops left laying outside of Fred's boss villa: Really? You kill a number of policemen and you just leave their corpses lying all over the place? You don't even bother to quickly hide their bodies out of sight?! 2. Canister explosion at solar farm: Alex is supposedly an explosives expert, yet he casually and non-chalant-ly just leaves a nitro canister lying around in the open like that so that anyone can trip it over and cause a massive explosion?! 3. The final sacrifice by Fred: Clearly the truck could've been thrown at the fire with no one present behind the wheel; this final sacrifice was not really necessary but obviously it was done for dramatic effect, to give Fred a redemption arc with Alex. Last but not least, I kept being distracted by how much Franck Gastambide looks almost exactly like Thierry Henry! Uncanny.

Their lack of taste and zero understanding of what comprises a good movie is seriously disturbing. Glad I decided to check it out and lo and behold. A movie chock full of action and many suspense scenes. Good acting, great music, characters to root for and very cool explosions. I'm so tired of reading these low scoring reviews for movies that do not warrant it. If you didn't like this movie that's fine. It simply means you have bad taste but to say this movie was terrible means you're lacking perception of exactly what this movie was supposed to be which it accomplished in spades. If you love nonsense, fluff movies like Barbie then this may not be for you. All others check it out and be thoroughly entertained.

Terrible French actors copying terrible Hollywood faces, plots and general "blockbuster" cinematic. What I understand of this movie: 2 trucks pass through a desert. This is a movie about ... trucks. The special effects are outdated even for 2000 level. If George Lucas had to make this movie in 1980 using little paper figurines, the effects would still be far better than what this movie has to offer. The suspense in this movie is approximately 0 as everything is highly intuitive and expected. There are a couple of actors mostly white and 2 black. The black people die, whites make it to the end of the movie ... There is a hero as well ... yeah ... he is white ... just like me. "Let the engine cool for a minute" ... right after coming out of a river. She turns the engine off :))) . Firstly ... you don't need to cool it down after passing through water but ... let's say ... the engine was over the water. You cool the engine running it idle not turning it off... This movie is filled with childish pieces of scripts. This movie should not exist and consume megabytes of this planets storage and transit capacities. If these actors were bread bakers ... I'd be dead after 5 minutes into this movie.

The Wages of Fear: An updated version set in an unstable Middle Eastern country which has gone through a coup and is now facing another uprising. An oil well in the middle of the desert is surrounded by a refugee camp. We're really in Mad Max territory here, a car is pursued by a semi with a machine gun on top, the car safely reaches the camp, the semi is pursued by warriors on horseback. The oil well is hit by a stray bullet and catches fire. Corporate types hire two brothers to transport explosives and blow the well quenching the fire. One brother is at the camp, the other has to be sprung from prison (there's a complicated back story told through flashbacks). An OK action film with many thrills and spills, back stabbing and typical multinational cynicism. The tension is maintained well enough and you do wonder who is going to survive as the brothers accompanied by mercenaries encounter rebels, bandits and a minefield, The convoy around the explosives trucks certainly starts to shrink, Good though this thriller is it will inevitably be compared to Sorcerer and the 1953 The Wages of Fear, sadly it's not up to that standard, Well worth watching though. Drive safely! Directed by Julien Leclercq, Written by Leclercq and Hamid Hlioua. On Netflix. 7/10.

New from Netflix, a film that is shot well, the graphics are good, but overall it is bad and here's why. From the very beginning, Murphy's law occurs around the main characters, everything bad that can happen to them will definitely happen, if at first it may seem interesting, but by the fifth case it can get boring. The plot of the film lasts so long that we see the title of the film when we have already watched a third of the film. And the content of this plot is so empty that it does not affect the further course of events, we did not get to know the characters closely, and the plot did not advance at all. The main plot revolves around two brothers who must heroically save the settlement from the explosion of a gas well. On the way to this goal they face all sorts of obstacles, from shootouts and chases to banal roadblocks. The main characters are stupid and naive, just look at the scene where the explosives technician is hiding from the explosion behind a car stuffed with explosives. But the ending of the film can surpass even this... In general, it's a pity to waste time - a waste product that has been digested many times.

When I first started watching the movie with the English dubbed version, I didn't enjoy it because the voices and sound effects seemed slow and unimpressive. I then tried watching it with the original soundtrack, but it didn't get any better. The action scenes, which should have been thrilling, were just not exciting at all, mostly because they were too focused on showing violence without a good pace. The sound editing was also not great, making the movie feel dull and uninteresting. It seemed like the filmmakers were more interested in filming some nice scenes in the rocky terrain than in developing a gripping story. I couldn't feel any empathy for the main characters when they were in danger or got hurt because the movie didn't make me care about them. In the end, it was really boring and not worth watching.
