The riddick films were alright, harmless actioners.
Im not going to repeat my views on Taranteeny's limitations and excesses. Suffice to say, a leone or peckinpah he aint.
Cue Thor to tell us hes an auteur genius.
Sometimes Oldman's overacting works, true romance, dracula, fifth element, state of grace, But hes good enough now to tone it down a tad and be 10 times more effective.
Speaking of shite, did I ever tell you that I will forever associate the "John Wick" films with Tall Guy? I'd never heard of them until he enthused over one that time.
Meanwhile, I have some bottom-feeding Tarantino wannabe films on the way--looking forward to watching and reviewing them to absolutely no reaction from anyone here.

Just in case I'm away or miss it you can have my reaction now - '?! '

I can't take anyone without a sense of humor seriously.
This one looks to be the worst of the bunch. I remember when the film was released--who could ever forget that title?--but the trailer looks dire! Pesci looks like he's regretted ever signing to do the film, which was weitten and directed by the Oscar-winning author of Dead Poets Society.
The bald guy in the thumbnail even resembles Tarantino...
The 2003 hatchet-job documentary, Overnight (2003) looks to be fascinating, indeed. You know a guy has to be a jerk when you find yourself siding with convicted monster Harvey Weinstein!
Tried watching Freeway (1996), which stars a young Reese Witherspoon--whose name I always forget--seems like she always voices her characters in that "Southern Fried Trash" voice Paul Newman always used to critical acclaim and which Leonardo DiCaprio now frequently employs.
Anyway, the film is (intentionally?) bad from the start. Danny Elfman's awful main title accompanies "children's storybook" credits, as the film fancies itself a twisted take on "Little Red Riding Hood." The guy who plays Reese's stepfather is such a bad actor, and Amanda Plummer regurgitates her Pulp Fiction characterization. The film attempts to be kooky and irreverent and tries so hard to be vulgar--it usually succeeds.
