Movies with BM/WW Couples

Seen The Rhythm Section earlier and here is my short review of it:

I thought it was a pretty decent thriller with a unique and more realistic take on a revenge movie. It had some Alias feel to it with her changing of identities. I was surprised to learn that Stephanie(Blake Lively)

Spoiler

was a drug addicted sex worker in the film. Although they never really showed her doing any of it.

She turned of course as we seen in the trailers into a female hellbent on revenge after her family was killed.

Spoiler

They had parished in a plane bombing by some terrorist who had a specific target on the plane so unfortunately they were collateral.

When she contacted B(Jude Law) for training so that she can go on her revenge tour he put her through the ringer in some very tough training exercises that left her at times wanting to give up.

I like how everything played out with this because it doesn't make her out to be some super badass right away. She fumbles and appears nervous throughout her revenge tour and it really gave the feel of a newbie to this new lifestyle.

As far as her relationship with Marc Serra(Sterling K Brown) goes

Spoiler

they meet while she was looking for specific knowledge on U-17 aka Reza who's supposed to be the mastermind behind the plane crash. He plays an ex-CIA agent that is able to help her in finding intel on U-17. She met him under another identity named Petra. Their relationship was tease heavy from the start with them both being attracted to each other. The ''sex'' scene between them was not what it seem. So I don't know WHAT the rating for "sexual content" was about. She took her shirt off they were hot and heavy for a minute before being interrupted by a phone call by B.

Marc winds up being the main bad guy in the end who when she finds out she eventually kills... or did she? lol. Some here might not like that part. But if you were looking for some ride off into the sunset, falling in love type ending it is not here. Although me and my girl was disappointed with that reveal I think the film overall was pretty decent. Blake and Sterling gave great chemistry before that and could've made for a MUCH better sex scene. Maybe when it comes out on blu-ray, DVD or online there was actually more to that. Wish there would've been more, but I hope to see these two in future films.

 

@darkcurry thanks for the info!

Spoiler: As for Marc

The hallway scene we see in the trailers doesn't last long? A minute? Dang, I hope we see more than the dark, fuzzy shots. Her legs up and around Sterling was so erotic! I have read "heavily implied sex" in other reviews and why it didn't go further is a slight disappointment since the director is female.

 

Spoiler

Yeah the build up was pretty hot have you thinking that good thing my theatre had only about 20 people in it. lol. But it was just one big tease of "sex" scene. lol.

 

Had to admit it feels like a flashback.

 

Just like my reply.

 

How long of a scene do you feel it is? Being short was my fear

 

Several about 3 to 4 minutes.

 

ALL THE BRIGHT PLACES (sneak peek)


Full Trailer debuts tomorrow.

 

I'm in! This looks beautiful.

Keegan-Michael Key as Justice Smith's Dad is perfect casting!

 

As a rule, I don't care much for YA fare, but this film could be to some degree significant and inspiring. It is also reassuring that the author co-wrote the screenplay.

 

That's always a good sign.

 

The latest key art for All The Bright Places.

 

The woman in the window trailer was disappointed Anthony Mackie play husband Amy Adams but he never show in trailer!! We will be lucky if they have just kiss

 

Here's the trailer:

 

LMAO

 

If I remember right he plays her ex husband. And they have a child together.

 

Not sure if this is the most appropriate place to ask, but I've been looking for Rhythm Section online and I still dont see places that have it. They have other new ones but not that. Kinda confused why not.

@ColiBreh1 any suggestions? I saw you might know a lil more about these sites.

 

May I ask...if you tend to not like YA fare why would you think the author of the YA novel would make its movie adaption work better for you by co-writing the script?

 

I always wait till after the Blu-ray/DVD release to download a movie, so no.
