Honest Thief - Movie Review


 Liam Neeson

Let's face it. Liam Neeson has been doing a lot of action movies since Taken back in 2009. His has done voice work as Aslan in the three Chronicles of Narnia movies. He has even played the villain in movies like Batman Begins and The Haunting. Although his movie credits go back even further, the first movie that I remember him from is the original Darkman. I have to admit I have many movies with Liam in. I have not seen ever movie he has been in but the ones I have seen are either good or great. Let me know if you have seen him in a bad movie.

Review

I was drawn to this movie as the plot was something I had not seen. With Liam Neeson, Jai Courtney, Kate Walsh, Robert Patrick, and Jeffrey Donovan in it, I imagined it would be at least a good movie. Honestly, I didn't realize Jeffrey Donovan was in the movie until I started watching it for those who are Burn Notice fans. The movie did not disappoint. The story was something I had not seen before and moved at a good pace. The cast provided great performances. The only disappointing part was the end. They provided foreshadowing of events after the final scene but it would have been nice to have seen it. Overall a very good movie that will take you on an adventure.

Rating

I would give this movie a HD rating. I recommend adding this movie to your collection if it is under $10. I picked my HD copy up from Family Video for $8. See my post about Family Video closing.

Protecting Your Online Collection

 Protecting Your Collection In this time of cyber crime, you want to protect your investment of digital movies. I will be focusing this page on the primary retailers that connect with Movies Anywhere. At the time of this post, I am only aware of Google and iTunes are the only two retailers that offer secondary authentication. Technically, Amazon offers a secondary authentication with the use of a pin for digital purchases. I highly recommend you use these security feature provided by Amazon, Google, and iTunes. This provides great protection for your collection and any saved credit card information that you have with the retailer. I would not advise keeping your credit card information with a online retailer but I understand it's convenience. With that said, I will point out that users have the ability to removed their credit card information from Amazon, FandangoNow, Google, iTunes (provided you are not using Family Sharing), and Microsoft. This is convenient when one of the retai...

Avengers: Endgame - Review

Movie Review - Spoiler Free I will try to keep this a spoiler free review. First, I would like to applaud Disney/Marvel for making a movie over the 2 hour limit that most movies have kept themselves to lately. The movie would have felt rushed if it was only 2 hours. The movie starts out appropriately timed to the events of Avengers: Infinity War. The movie kept you emotional invested throughout the entire movie. There was some predictability with the story but for the most part, I was able to enjoy the ride without knowing what would happen next. This to me made the movie extremely enjoyable. We get see how the characters deal with the aftermath of the Infinity War and what their options are moving forward. Each character was given their opportunity on screen during the movie. This is obviously easier to do since there are fewer characters after the events of Infinity War. I felt that many characters had an appropriate conclusion to their stories. The movie did leave me with a couple ...

Digital Ownership

 What Is? With the digital revolution, digital media has been sweeping the world. My memory of digital media was back with iTunes in 2001. There you could download music with a touch of a button from an actual retailer vs illegally with the bonus of malware to your computer. I actually had digital music from iTunes before I had a iPod or iPhone to play it on. In 2005, Apple released their video iPod and started to "sell" digital TV and movies. I am not saying Apple was the foundation for the digital revolution but it was my first positive experience with digital media. My first digital video purchase was the unaired Aquaman TV pilot as it was the only place to get it. What does purchasing something digitally really mean though? Apple and Amazon are coming under class-action lawsuits for their digital ownership definition of "buy" an item. The lawsuit stems from the fine print where retailers cannot guarantee you own the product but merely have unlimited streaming. T...
