    The Ides of March (2011) An idealistic staffer for a newbie presidential candidate gets a crash course on dirty politics during his stint on the campaign trail. Look at that cast!!! Should i go on? A politician hides shit and his right hand finds out… and grows a fuckin’ conscience. Death before betrayal? or survival of the fittest? Written, directed and starring George Clooney! A political drama with nerve. The face of politics will never be the same - it’s been that way for ages. People are starting to open their eyes. Philip Seymour Hoffman, Paul Giamatti and Ryan Gosling. DAMN. Marisa Tomei and Evan Rachel Wood. DAMN! Trivia: The Ides of March was the day (March 15) that Julius Caesar was assassinated. In Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar” before being stabbed to death, Julius Caesar is told by a Soothsayer: “Beware the ides of March.” A nice film with big stars and a story not too far from reality. Somethin’ for mature audiences and followers of political conspiracies. We all have a conscience to deal with.

    Killer Elite (2011) When his mentor is taken captive, a retired member of Britain’s Elite Special Air Service is forced into action. His mission: kill three assassins dispatched by their cunning leader. Inspired by the book “The Feather Men” by Sir Ranulph Fiennes. - This isn’t a remake of The Killer Elite (1975). WOW! Jason Statham, (Spike) Clive Owen and the living legend Robert De Niro - What the fuck more can i say??? AC-fuckin’-TION! The chase and fight scenes were superb, the story was enticing and the cast was pure GOLD. A handful of mercenaries go head to head. And we have the SAS agents and their hidden government agendas. A lot is going on here… and the kicker is it’s based on a true story - “actual” events during the 80s, conspiracy theories and secrets. I admit, this wasn’t the best i’ve seen… but it’s good enough. I was thrilled from start to end, though there was a tiny slump midway through. My brother pointed out Statham and Owen should have traded roles - i agree. Nevertheless this packed a punch! Meat, in a genre full of hollow ass-kicking. A story about men who do dirty work… Someone’s gotta fill those shoes.
