A few from over the last week+:
This docu tells the story of young ladies disappearing in Cleveland and how there really was no police action taken until......
Survivors, family members and locals recount what they saw/noticed and even smelled in the neighborhood!
Good watch. I would go 3.75/5.
Contrary to the movie poster above, Denzel is not the star of this flick.
James Farentino plays a father overjoyed that his daughter has just graduated high school and is headed off to college. His wife and their other daughter also are very happy and the youngster has already claimed dibs on the older's room.
Older daughter heads out to meet up with her boyfriend on his birthday. Local businessman is leaving the club after several drinks. You guessed it....he crashed into the girl and she is killed.
Was he drunk? Well....the father wants justice and that's where Denzel comes in. He plays a young DA trying to maneuver around in the courthouse vs an experienced defense lawyer.
The dad of the teen is furious that it is taking so long to find out if his family will get justice. Will they? Not a bad watch.
3/5.
A brand new Canada World Airways plane takes off from Montreal headed to Edmonton. W Devane plays the lead pilot and is told by the pilot who just flew the plane in that there are a few tech issues.
Devane and his co-pilot head out on the runway and speak to the ground staff. They can't seem to figure out how to measure how much fuel is needed for the flight.
Ok......shortly after takeoff....$hit hits the fan. Computers are beeping.....lights are blinking and they realize that they have nowhere enough fuel to reach Edmonton.
They reach air traffic and ask to be diverted to a closer airport......when they realize that they are out of fuel and they are basically gliding trying to put the plane down somewhere.
Much of this was filmed from the cockpit and I actually did like as the tension builds. This is based on a true story and the pilot on the original CWA flight has a small role at the beginning of this flick.
3/5.

I caught all of these on Youtube. The last 2 are not groundbreaking flicks, but I felt that they were worth a watch.
