  • I´m so happy to read those positive reviews. They confirm my gut feeling :-).

  • @CraigMooreOHMSS, @bondjames, if it has bits of Black´s trademark comedy, that could be an important factor to make it work with this rather uncharismatic cast. I´m hoping for a film that saves budget on big names and instead spends money on the pr…

  • It took them all these years to figure out how to effectively shut down the drug traffic, when the solution was right under their noses since the 80s? Now if only Rocky would travel America and educate the kids that drugs are crap!
