Movies You May Have Missed Vol. 1

I rarely find people who have seen these movies. So I thought I'd take a little time to tell you about them and hopefully convince you to take a look at them.

Judgment Night- Four friends are on their way to watch a boxing match. There is major traffic so they take the first exit they can to try to find another way around. Bad move, they witness a murder and now the killer doesn't want any witnesses. This day suddenly turns from a planned day of fun to a race to live. This movie is really just a good get lost in the suspense kind of movie. It will keep you on the edge of your seat, and wondering what's next. 'Judgment Night' stars Cuba Gooding Jr., Emilio Estevez, Denis Leary, Stephen Dorff, and Jeremy Piven.

Blood In, Blood Out- 'Blood In, Blood out', is the story of two half-brothers Paco and Cruz and their bi-racial cousin Miklo. They are members of an L.A. gang known as 'Vatos Locos". The story takes a turn when Miklo is sent to jail for murder. Cruz becomes and artist and Paco becomes a cop. The story revolves around the three. I loved the multiple story telling in this movie and the acting was amazing. You will go through lots of emotions in this one, from happiness all the way to anger. 'Blood In, Blood Out' stars Benjamin Bratt, Damian Chapa, and Jesse Borrego.

Leon: The Professional- Leon is a professional hit-man, living a routine life in New York. When a young girl comes home to find her family has been killed, she runs to him for help. When she discovers he is a hit-man, she asks him to teach her the skills to take her revenge. The story line is very touching. Matilda transforms Leon's life and gives it meaning, the relationship between them is beautiful and it feels real. 'The Professional' stars Natalie Portman, Jean Reno, and Gary Oldman.
