Some mainstream critics have complained Greyhound is too steeped in naval-combat tactics and lacking in depth of character and story, which is funny, as that's the whole point of Tom Hanks's new World War 2 movie. This is a slice of military history; a film that attempts to capture the harsh, and often frightening, reality Allied convoys faced as they crossed the Atlantic, knowing Axis U-boats lurked beneath them and could strike at any time. Greyhound is based on the 1955 novel The Good Shepherd, and details an inexperienced captain's first wartime mission guiding troop transports to Europe. They ended up relentlessly hunted by four U-boats, which resulted in one of the longest, largest, and most complex naval battles in history. I love military history, especially World War 2, so Greyhound is right up my alley.

I love tanks, I love war movies , and I'm a fan of Brad Pitt . That makes the superstar's upcoming Second World War action/drama Fury a must see for this Basementite. We'll forgive the presence of Shia LeBeouf of course.

Toward the end of World War II, Russian soldiers pushing into eastern Germany stumble across a secret Nazi lab, one that has unearthed and begun experimenting with the journal of one Dr. Victor Frankenstein. I have but one complaint with this movie, and that's that it's yet another entry in the found-footage genre. But it has a traditional score etc. Why? What's the point? The film would have been better served as a straight-up narrative, in my opinion. End of short rant. Everything else about this flick is bad to the ass. In fact, there's an entire sequence where I was glued to the screen, my jaw wide open, shocked and awed at what I was watching. This is an old-school monster movie, with multiple monsters the likes of which I've only seen in nightmares. And they do terrible things to people over...
