@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gy*Sees the mountains in the background*
Somewhere in this town, John Rambo is being abused in jail.
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyNobody is going to convince me this hot nurse couldn't better deal her now divorced cop husband with a nice eligable doctor at that hospital.
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyThis is starting to look like a failed #SilkStalkings extended episode. 😖
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyWow, Parker's boss is a real piece of work.
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyI could go for almost anything #JamesSpader from the late 90s early 00s. He's one of my favorites. 👍
I take it this was a direct to video effort?
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyThat wasn't bad. 👍
Little dark and absurd, interestingly contrasted with that bright 80s movie lighting.
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyI'm no terminal cop, but if 40 year old #TerriGarr was my new lover I'd probably stick around for a couple more days.
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyOut-of-control 80's gangbangers tearing up the mean highways of midday Seattle! Who would have guessed?
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyI mean... there's a guy out there with 2 weeks to live, and it's not Bert. 👀🤦♂️
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyI'm 30 minutes in. This does eventually get funny, right? Or is it just a really, REALLY dark comedy that doesn't know itself?
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyI'm going to ignore the subtitles for the ending credits and assume this melody is about Kung Pao Chicken.
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyYeah, I coulda told you stopping to have a dramatic heart to heart in the middle of a gunfight was a bad idea. 🤦♂️
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyThe blew the budget on explosions and squibs, so we get... this🤷♂️... as a soundtrack.🤦♂️
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyMan, Kit is an idiot. Where is his freakin' backup?
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyI don't think John Woo really liked the protogonists in these movies because, it's only 2 movies, but he just effed with them relentlessly.
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyDid you see that? That silly man jumped right into a bullet!
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyCorrupt cops. Corrupt ex criminal partners. This town needs an enema!
@kcarr2015.mstdn.social.ap.brid.gyFacebook has saved me SO many times from this particular problem!
