Thieves Highway (2025)

Posted on December 20, 2025December 18, 2025 by garethmyles

Based loosely on true events, Thieves Highway echoes the grit and lone-wolf determination of classic films like Walking Tall.

Smokey and the Bandit Part 3 (1983)

Posted on December 13, 2025December 13, 2025 by garethmyles

In 1983 Smokey and the Bandit Part 3 dropped and the mighty Bandit franchise didn’t just slow down; it stalled completely, becoming a bizarre, frustrating, and ultimately baffling detour into cinematic misadventure.

Snake Eater (1989)

Posted on December 6, 2025December 6, 2025 by garethmyles

Lorenzo Lamas is the Snake Eater, a cop and wants to avenge the death of his parents and the kidnapping of his sister in this light hearted action comedy!

The Pawn (1999)

Posted on November 22, 2025November 30, 2025 by garethmyles

A movie so obscure it barely exists. Come for the low-budget 90s action, stay for the scene where the main character screams in total silence because they forgot to add the audio.

Smokey and the Bandit II (1980)

Posted on November 19, 2025November 19, 2025 by garethmyles

A nostalgic look at Smokey and the Bandit II (1980). It’s juvenile, chaotic fun, but seriously flawed. Burt Reynolds was detached; Jackie Gleason was tired. Jerry Reed is the undeniable heart and best part of the whole absurd, over-the-top sequel.

Smokey and the Bandit (1977)

Posted on November 12, 2025November 12, 2025 by garethmyles

Time to look at how to smuggle beer across state lines while evading a relentless sheriff in a high-speed chase with lashings of humour, stunts, and Southern charm.

The Last Shark (1981)

Posted on November 5, 2025November 9, 2025 by garethmyles

The Last Shark is an Italian ’81 Jaws knock-off, infamous for its US block. An author (Franciscus) and shark hunter (Morrow) track a great white terrorising a coastal town, battling a stubborn mayor. It’s a fun, low-budget effort with B-movie charm.

Play Dirty (2025)

Posted on November 1, 2025October 31, 2025 by garethmyles

Parker is the name, and he is back in this latest outing, not based on any book in particular Shane Black holds the reigns and Amazon Prime writing the cheques.
