Edge of Darkness
Mel Hath Much Fury
Trailers & Mo | Official Website
Welcome back Mel Gibson! And we really do mean that, since yer on-screen exploits are far more entertaining and applaudable than yer off-screen ones (seriously Mel, what's up with being so open and outward with hating the hand that feeds you?). Has it really been 8 years since you were the lead in a movie? In Martin Campbell's big screen take on his own 1985 TV mini series, he certainly shows no sign of rust. Guess he doesn't share in his old partner Roger Murtaugh's words of wisdom: I'm too old for this shit! It's unfortunate then that the movie itself could use a WD-40 spray down. It's a Death Wish political thriller, that we wish had more thrills, better politics and tons mo carnage than it ended up wit. That didn't stop the audience we were surrounded by from being udderly pleased as punch at seeing Mr G back in action, as they cheered hard when he got mad as Mel! Ya know what, we kinda did too, but den again, wees quickly grew tired of the forgone conclusion that his character would hunt down all those responsible (including a smarmy as usual Danny Huston) for the death of his daughter (the cute-a-cool Bojana Novakovic... see below) before the credits roll. Guess what happens? Give you a hint, he goes a bit over the edge of darkness!!! Lettuce hope that his next project has a lil bit mo edge to it
Bo'Nique: we stillz gots a on hard for Mellie Mel's screen daughter Bojana Novakovic, and spanks to the film's pre-mear, we have mo pics of Bojana to drool over!!
Verdictgo: Sum Merit But No Stinking Badges
