First up movies!

MEMORY follows Alex Lewis (Liam Neeson), an expert assassin with a reputation for discreet precision. Caught in a moral quagmire, Alex refuses to complete a job that violates his code and must quickly hunt down and kill the people who hired him before they and FBI agent Vincent Serra (Guy Pearce) find him first.

Take a look!

Memory is in theaters now and I can tell you, this is nothing new, you can pretty much figure out everything – but if you like these types of movies you will not be disappointed.

My underdog movie I’m picking as my favorite is Green Ghost and the Masters of the Stone; In a Texas border town, a car salesman moonlights as a masked wrestler going by the name “Green Ghost.” When unknown assailants arrive seeking an otherworldly emerald, Charlie discovers that he has superpowers. I love this movie and it has a lot of recognizable faces including legend Danny Trejo

Take a look!
