Red Days (2019)
Certainly as good as or better than many higher budget flicks
Watched it on Amazon Prime after getting tired of hunting for stuff. Seemed like a student flick but really not bad, kept my attention much more than a lot of movies!
The Last Thing He Wanted (2020)
Learn some history before watching this
I've never written a review before and wanted to up the rating on this one as I read the other reviews. I totally understand why people find this movie incomprehensible, I think the producers/director assumed people would know about the Iran/Contra days of the 80s, when US Government sold weapons to Iran to fund large scale killings and related militia activities in Central America. This became a sprawling and almost incomprehensible web of crap that consumed America in the 80s. Read about the rape/murder of the Maryknoll nuns, CIA cocaine smuggling to LA, Freeway Ricky Ross (no, not the rapper, but the guy the rapper took the name from and got sued by), the Kerry Commission (yes, Senator / Prez / Married Well John Kerry), Ollie North, Charles Schultz (now of Theranos fame!), and a whole bunch more crazy stuff. Much the current poverty and migration from Central America today is partially rooted in this story, and the many crazy and horrible stories that came before in this region. So, apparently this movie assumes you'll know the story / follow the plot, and if you do it's not a bad flick.
