Review 4K Movie

The last castle is unbelievably entertaining.

That may sound like high praise but when I say unbelievably , I mean I didn't believe a thing that I was seeing but it was definitely entertaining.

Robert Redford plays a court-martialed General who rallies together twelve hundred inmates to rise against a corrupt and sadistic warden played by James Gandolfini.

Robert Redford is a true movie superstar and he's pretty good in this considering his age but the star of this show is the brilliant James Gandolfini. His acting is subtle yet his every sound and facial movements say so much .

The story is ridiculous. Extremely ridiculous.

You could put this in the same bracket as Con Air , Face/Off and The Rock .

Extremely Entertaining but when you try to delve into the plot it makes you laugh .

The whole scene when the prisoners rise up and roll out a sling shot , hook a helicopter with a rope and have hand held catapults made me laugh out loud .

The prisoners were not believable either .

I know they were all military inmates but how they went from thugs to disciplined men was just silly .

Having said all I have I really enjoyed it . The time flew by and I was never bored and it's probably the last action film Robert Redford made and for 65 year old as the time he looked really good .
