Boss Level

March 29, 2017

First of all, I love me some Frank Grillo, dude is a BEAST! Most will recognize him as Rumlow from Captain America: Winter Soldier and Civil War. He was also a force to be reckoned with in a few of the Purge films, but he busts his ass and has built himself quite a career as an actor.

In his latest venture, Boss Level, he plays a retired special forces officer trapped in a never ending time loop on the day of his death. If that wasn’t enough to warrant a watch, the film co-stars Mel Gibson and Naomi Watts.

F9

March 29, 2017

From director Justin Lin, who helmed the directors chair for a number of the previous entries, Fast & Furious 9, otherwise known as simply F9, continues a franchise that to be quite honest helped shape my youth as it arrived in theaters in 2001 during my sophomore year in high school.

In this latest entry, Cipher enlists the help of Jakob, Dom's younger brother, to take revenge on Dom and his team.

f9 1.JPG

I remember watching the original over and over again, to the point where I’d just hear the soundtrack in my head, and as I was not yet a licensed driver just thinking how cool it would be to eventually be able to drive a car myself. I also nearly fell into the trap of buying a civic to match the cars they used to jack trucks, but went with an Integra instead. I for one can’t wait for the latest entry to hit theaters this summer after suffering a number of COVID-19 related delays.

F9 is set to hit theaters on June 25th. Buckle up and watch the official trailers below.
