Outstanding opinions of some of the best motion pictures that you may choose from starting here.

Gordon's War - While a Vietnam vet comes home to find his spouse caught on drugs, he trains a gentleman army to wipe out the pushers. Brilliant action, although gets lost toward the end. Cast includes Paul Winfield, Carl Lee, David Downing, and Tony Baron.
