ckf Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 The Great Raid Based on a true story. There are some of the original clips and photos after the ending credits. In early 1945, as World War II is nearing its end, Gen. Douglas MacArthur selects Lt. Col. Henry Mucci (Benjamin Bratt) to command a bold rescue mission in the Philippines. There, in the city of Cabanauan, more than 500 American soldiers are being held captive in a brutal prisoner-of-war camp. With the assistance of Capt. Prince (James Franco), Mucci will lead the valiant soldiers of the 6th Ranger Battalion in one of the boldest POW rescues in American history. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe start another series on the weekend, though. Christian Slater in mr robot? Think I saw a episode or two. 8 hours ago, Ez ryder said: Different twist on Yesterday. Small town failed singer is the only one on earth that knows who the Beatles are. Steals all their songs as his own. It was surprisingly good.

irv Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 I always liked these movies.Old, and only thing that comes to mind right now: Guns of Navarone Always liked these movies: Man On Fire, Denzel Washington. Great movie! Shawshank redemption Heat, Al Pacino, Rob Dinero The Usual Suspects Seven Fury On Netflix the other night, considering I don't watch a lot of T.V. anymore, we watched 6 Underground. It took a bit of getting use to and the opening scene was a bit long and drawn out but it eventually got to be a decent watch. I liked the theme how a billionaire sought out justice for others rather than relying on the gov't to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XCR1250 Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Battleship is my favorite Sci-Fi movie. Other Sci-Fi: House of Usher was good, Night of the Living Dead was a thriller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
