Laser Lemming's Chris Patton reviews the sharply metaphorical Out of the Furnace starring Christian Bale. He writes:
"As the Deer Hunter showed the price of America after Vietnam, so does Out of the Furnace show the modern cost of believing any single thing the U.S. Government spoon-feeds to the babies of media. More jobs, healthcare and Jesus saving you are non-existent. Rodney and Russel’s father is immobile and dying on the couch. Career choices teeter between shoveling gravel, working at the mill, or taking up bare-knuckle boxing with lowly bookies at the local bar. This is America 2014."
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
Rebel Moon Part 2 Review: This movie doesn't feel anything new or worth remembering, which is a shame.
Once the Deer Hunter training wheels come off, the audience is left with a wonderfully horrific ride. It’s all at once too honest to appreciate and too personal not to step into.
