The Land of Saints and Sinners, Asphalt City, Mea Culpa

Movie 1: The Land of Saints and Sinners

Once again Liam Neeson delivers a good performance in a very good Irish drama. Set in 1974 Ireland, at the height of “The Troubles,” the peaceful coastal towns of Donegal are rocked by bombs and revenge. The cinematography is beautiful, yet lonely and brooding, much like the movie. Subtitles would have been helpful as the Irish accent can be difficult to understand at times.

Movie 2: Asphalt City

This is an intense drama, set in NYC, as emergency paramedics work the night shift. This is one of the most tense, gritty and raw movies we have seen in a long time. While very well done, acted and interesting, this movie is not for everyone. Once you’ve seen it, it is very difficult to unsee it.

Rating:

Movie 3: Mea Culpa

This is an erotic thriller written and directed by Tyler Perry. Set in Chicago, this film is full of twists and turns. Many critics did not care for this movie, but we found it entertaining. Good acting by Kelly Rowland. On Netflix.
