The Red Shoes normally isn’t my sort of movie, namely a musical not to mention a ballet musical, but I can admire the direction, cinematography and the performances from two leads.
Busting is a fairly average crime-drama from the 1970s that features a respectable performance by Elliott Gould and a decent enough chase sequence, but otherwise not a whole stands out especially compared with others from the era.

Hard Target was John Woo’s first foray into Hollywood and while not a rousing success as this one doesn’t quite have his visual flair, there are some incredibly hilarious scenes that would make this good for roasting amongst friends.
No Time to Die is a fitting finale to the Daniel Craig era as James Bond and while I personally still love Pierce Brosnan mainly because I grew up during his reign, Craig brought his own style to the longtime character and for the most part delivered a high-quality selection of movies.
