Gerard Butler, like Jason Statham, but in a different way, has found a way to crash his own corner of the concept realm while still delivering box office. Seemingly "Greenland", bolstered by the pandemic, did well to allow the story to move on. "Greenland 2: Migration" is bigger in scale and obviously takes on a different locale in a way. Beginning in Greenland where the last film ended, utopia, or what the inhabitants were hoping for, doesn't turn out in the way they hoped.

The essence of action is seeing with the eyes of your protagonist. "Ballerina" does very well in this regards though it does require a little bit of set up to get the idea going. The structure works in this way because you can't simply drop Ana de Armas into killing mode without showing in some basic way, shape and form how she got there.

The consistency of an old school action film depends on how seriously you take it and also what the expectation is. "Den Of Thieves 2: Pantera" is the second in another action franchise starring Gerard Butler who had settled in, comfortably and with producing credits, to a series of franchises that are lean and mean and deliver in many respects.

The progression of a horror film that is both in the mind and on the ground is an interesting juxtaposition. The problem with “Never Let Go” is that it never quite defines what it is. Mama (Halle Berry) and her children are seemingly the only survivors of a world gone mad. But the actual perpetrator, even in the finale, doesn’t quite come to bear.

The essence of “The Crow” is always going to be shadowed by Brandon Lee. “The Crow” [1994] was a product of its time and had a mythical edge of sorts to it which is understandable which was only heightened by its circumstances. The new iteration starring Bill Skarsgard and directed by “Snow White and the Huntsman” helmer Rupert Sanders is remarkably beautiful in many ways.

The aspect of making history both entertaining but also prevalent in character is a balance, especially when it involves action and comedy. With "The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare", director Guy Ritchie uses his approach to again make something off-the-cuff.

The context of creation and eventuality is at the core of "The Hunger Games" prequel: "The Ballad Of Songbird & Snakes". Smaller in scale in certain ways than its predecessor, its essence of its love story per se is what drives the humanity of what it shows.

The context of a would be heist/spy thriller all reflects in the tone of a film. Guy Ritchie has always been great at balancing the aspect of bug budget with scrappy independent-feel pieces. With "Operation Fortune - Ruse De Guerre", he finds the best balance so far because the approach is both humorous, dynamic, fun and doesn't take itself too seriously.

The texture of "Plane" has not been unseen in movie memory but its effectiveness is undeniably sound. Instead of more CG or heightened thrillers, Gerard Butler has delivered a more grounded, economical but also well paced and well acted action movie.
