"R" rating for the A-Team movie would have been so, so, so wrong. You admitted to never watching the show. It was a teen show and I watched it as a pre-teen. No one ever died, even without blood. They made cool stuff that won the day, the had cool jokes and they were the good guys fighting outside the silly laws. Again, no killing. And then repeat for several seasons. It was great and so was the film. Even having a female co-lead in there didn't seemed forced like it is so much today. There were several times they made cool stuff so it kept the movie going forward.

I would argue that Pain and Gain is Bay's best movie, but only because it's a break from his usual action fare.

Hi Darren, I enjoy your channel and picks. Thanks for all the great videos. I do have a question about movie rentals. I watched one of your 20 Hidden Gems or something like that videos for Prime. It was one with a lot of picks that I wanted to check out. All of them were rentals. One of your videos that I recently watched like that was 11 months old and one was 4 months old. Does that have anything to do with that? Or when you say that it is included with your Prime membership, do you mean they also might be rentals? That would be a good disclaimer, lol (unless I missed it somewhere - sorry if I did). It's not you, but I find it really lame to be paying Amazon $139 a year and then still have rentals on there. Ugh. I'm guessing that has to do with copyrights and licensing and things I don't know much about. Anyway, that's my question. Are you including rentals in your recommendations or am I just watching older videos of yours and something has changed? Anyway, thanks for all the great videos>

One that is hard to find (not on Prime or Netflix) but definitely worth checking out is Shotgun Stories. It's not as action packed as it sounds, just a great film.

That Scott Adkins trailer makes me want to see him star in a film based on the game Target: Renegade.

Lawless omg one of the best movies in the past 15 years I’ve seen and I just love Shia Lebouf. Been a huge fan since even stevens. I told my family on end back then that he would be a big deal one day and he was even though it was short lived I am praying he makes a gigantic come back because he’s one of my favorite actors. Criminally underrated as an actor.

As usual with your lists, 14 of 20 are in my library... LOL... You have excellent taste in movies. I won't comment on all of them, but I will mention a couple. I love Black Snake Moan. And especially for one reason. Samuel L. Jackson sings (if I remember correctly 3 songs) on the soundtrack! And of the songs he performs, Stack-o-Lee is definitely "in character" for Samuel. LOL Lawless is a GREAT prohibition period drama and yes, all the cast give top notch performances. The A-Team... LOL... I'm in my 60's and did watch the series when it was popular and I have to say, the cast for the movie version captured the flavor of EVERY CHARACTER! Liam Neeson as Hannibal Smith, Bradley Cooper as "Faceman", and Quinton Jackson as BA Baracus were all PERFECT choices. But Sharlto Copley as Murdock. That was INSPIRED GENIUS. I've always loved to loonies in TV and movies.... Characters like Bull from Night Court or Lowell Mather from Wings always steal the show for me. So, I have to give special recognition to Copley for his Murdock performance.

2 of my Go To Movies when I can't find anything watch is your #3 No Way Out and Your #1 The Rock. You have put together a really good list ...... And My Favorite Sleeper Movie that "No one has heard of" "Lone Star" 1996 staring Chris Cooper , Elizabeth Pena and a young Matthew McConaughey. A really good murder mystery with several other story lines with an ending that will leave You speechless

Ed Harris is fantastic in The Rock. That movie made me notice how good Ed was.

Thoroughbreds starring Anya Taylor Joy is on Prime and is absolutely phenomenal, given her recent rise to stardom this is one that a lot of people might have missed and need to go back and see. For fans of Jessie Eisenberg and Kristen Stewart I think Cafe Society is another good movie that I think might have flown under some radars as it was released as an Amazon Original Pre-pandemic and Pre people really appreciating Amazon Original content. Great video, love what you're doing also you're looking good man nice arms 👀💪🏼

You ain’t kidding about that interface! Half the time, it resets and I wind up going thru a whole listing again just to get back to where I was last looking for a flick. Or it randomly list a whole other category. There’s no telling what will happen

This is a Great list with movies I have enjoyed watching and movies I now plan on watching but I read the list top comment 1st before watching the video and got excited when I read the Wave 🌊 because I thought you were talking about the Norwegian Disaster movie 🎥 from 2016 and so just wanted to say for any one who has not watched it yet that's a Great movie 🎥 too and it's on Knopy and the Roku channel and Fubo ! I Highly recommend watching it for anyone who Disaster action movies and doesn't mind reading subtitles 😁!

Black Snake Moan is one of my favorite movies of all time. But also, I love pretty much anything that Christina Ricci is in.

Everyone should watch Black Snake Moan so they can fully appreciate Andy’s reference in the Office, while talking with Erin at the arcade. Also because it’s a great movie!

IIRC Roger Ebert said No Way Out was the best movie he had seen the year it came out ('87?) Really great movie.
