Review by Mario Melendez ★★★★
Its story time: yesterday Wednesday I went shopping with my mom and my sister to my local Best Buy near my house (which fortunately they haven't closed yet) and by pure chance, I found myself on a shelf of recent releases released in import DVD format and among all that was there was this movie, and I don't know why but for some reason the cover attracted me and I decided to read the synopsis that was on the back which made me think "oh, this one sounds so interesting". I feel surprised with myself because it has been a long time since I had this experience of being easily attracted to a movie that I could find in any…

‘point defiance’ review: a tale of two brothers.
Point Defiance is a well done thriller that reminds audiences of the most important part of the genre: the movie does a lot of things right before losing its way at the end. So, the next question becomes, if a thriller does not nail the landing, is it still good?
Point Defiance has a fairly small cast. The two brothers are the focus here. Therefore, it is incredibly important they work well with each other. A lack of chemistry runs the risk of ruining the immersion of the film.
Phillips and Cotty do a great job as the brothers. The normal dynamic plays out here. Peter is calmer and more level headed; Alex is much more aggressive. It sounds too familiar, especially with some of the cliche ridden dialogue. Thankfully, it never feels like that since writers Justin and Timothy Foia have written a story about two siblings that are much more alike than even they realize.
The mystery will engage audiences. There is the immediate question regarding Peter’s ankle bracelet. Before long, it becomes clear that is just one of many secrets between the two brothers. Before long, Point Defiance introduces a missing woman (or two) and the ramifications of a traumatic childhood. True to form, the twists keep adding up.

| | | May 18, 2020 when the screenplay's long game becomes clear. It's more of a mounting realization that there is no other way that fraternal screenwriters Justin (who also directed) and Timothy Foia's story could be resolved. That's a common trap among such twist-based tales: An air of mystery may be vital to the story's atmosphere, but when it overwhelms everything else, we can start to sense, not only the way in which filmmakers are toying with us, but also what the end result will be.

Director – Justin Foia (Doe, The Double) Starring – Derek Phillips (Longmire, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), Josh Crotty (Isle of the Dead, Grimm), and Lauren Elaine (Party Monsters, Criminal Minds) Release Date – 2020 Rating – 3/5
Tagline – “You can’t bury the past”
I never know what is going to show up for review. Sometimes I get movies that I’ve been following for months that I truly want to see and other times I receive movie’s that I’ve never heard of. Last week I received two movies from Bayview Entertainment to check out.
The first film was a drama titled Waterlily Jaguar that featured an amazing cast but the story took a winddown on the second half. The second film was the 2020 thriller Point Defiance. The artwork made me think this one would be painfully generic and not that entertaining. I was wrong. I want to thank Bayview for sending this one over.
**Spoiler Alert** The film follows Peter (Phillips) who is on house arrest for an unknown crime. His brother Alex (Crotty), a veteran, pays him a surprise visit after the two go more than a year without seeing each other. Things start out smoothly but soon Alex’s erratic behavior leaves Peter on edge. One night Alex orders an escort and starts drinking which is something Alex is against. The next day his life is turned upside down when he makes the connection to the escort and a missing woman from the area. Then his brother’s secret business in his barn makes him suspicious. To make matters worse, the police are now questioning him about her disappearance. **Spoiler Alert**
I went into this one with an open mind but I wasn’t expecting the much. However, I was very surprised by the film and it’s quality. I enjoyed it for the most part but the final act did make me face palm. With that aside, I was pleased with the film.
The acting in this one is fucking fantastic. I loved the two Allen brothers. Phillips and Crotty worked so well together. They have great chemistry on film and they absolutely crushed their scenes together. Honestly, this film would have failed early on if it wasn’t for them.
The story for this one has me sold during the first portion of the film but once we enter the third act I found myself rolling my eyes due to the predictability of the story. The brothers struggling to accept each other and the people they have become was a solid story line. However, the second part of the film changed that up and delivered a predictable and chaotic story that is not as fun on screen as I’m sure it was on paper.
Finally, the film does have some blood but if you are looking for a straight forward horror flick you will be disappointed. The film is focused on the story and not blood and gore so true horror fans will not find the effects they are looking for. Overall, Point Defiance is a solid thriller but the flow of the film is dampered by the predictable twists that are tossed near the ending of the film. Even the most inexperience genre fans will see these coming from a mile away. However, that doesn’t ruin the film but does take away from the impact. You can check the movie out on DVD now from Bayview Entertainment.
(Staff Writer) Lover of all things horror and metal. Also likes boobs and booze.
As was stated in the review I just read after watching the movie I did see all those things and it was so predictable I can’t recommend it nothing exciting acting was okay this is just too many variables too much left out information is is the key to everything in movies and this slack that information.

Directed and co-written by Justin Foia, Point Defiance stars Derek Phillips, Josh Crotty, Lauren Elaine, Sarah Butler, and Steven Swadling and was co-written by Timothy Foia.
The film begins in the home of an online stock trading, Peter Allen , played by Derek Phillips, obviously a man who has done quite well for himself with a home overlooking Commencement Bay in Tacoma, Washington. Allen, an online stock broker, is a creature of habit, same routine day in, day out.
On this day, the local news is playing in the background and a story about a girl missing for more than a year. Without thinking he turns off the TV and begins to work again.
Waking to noises in the house, he makes his way to the kitchen, armed with a bat for protection, he stumbles onto his brother, Alex , played by Josh Cotty, who is home from active duty in Afghanistan and just wants to hang out for a few days.
The two, who are polar opposites, begin to catch up and we find out that Peter has given up drinking, has an active house arrest ankle bracelet monitoring his every move, and uses a portable breathalyzer to provide an analysis as required.
Alex is party ready at the drop of a hat. Active duty has left his with PTSD and booze is the painkiller. Soon he has a crate of liquor delivered and begins a binge. Next on his agenda is sex, after finding an online escort service on his brother’s computer, he orders service for two with a party favor treat to begin the evening.
Crystal , played by Lauren Elaine, arrives and the evening begins with Peter, shell shocked and shy, as he watches his older brother, a smooth operator take control. The morning arrives and another report on the television news of the missing girl. In over a year the trail and been cold. The news reports her car had been found.
After a brief confrontation with his brother about the night before, the doorbell rings and two Detectives Barnes , played by Sarah Butler, and Fripp , played by Steven Swadling, are at the front door. They hand him a flyer on the missing girl, as they are just out canvassing, and are wondering if he saw anything. They also note his ankle monitor which they know limits his ability to leave the boundary of the property.
As his brother is still living the wildlife, the temptation for the booze becomes almost blinding until he dumps out the remainder of Alex’s stash and is taking out the bottles when the detectives return. He ends the questions by explaining he is home alone, no one is here, and he hasn’t left the property, and this feels a bit like harassment and please leave the property.
Suddenly the two brothers, each understand the other is hiding a secret. As the film progresses, the lines blur between reality as each of the brothers are haunted by their childhood abuse, an alcoholic father who committed suicide and the fallout from their personal injury.
The final break occurs when Peter’s escape property in Mexico, which he sent the owner a large down payment, falls through and he finds out his entire life savings was diverted to an irrevocable trust.
The taut suspenseful drama captures the attention and holds on, winding through the dark recesses of repressed memories, leaving the viewer to determine what is reality and what is the manifestation of deeply disturbed mind.
The casting is perfect, creating an ensemble that also delivers strong, convincing, authentic performances. Point Defiance is a riveting must see psychological thriller, holding the viewing as the story moves closer to an unexpected and shocking truth that resonates long after the film is over.
Point Defiance will be released on DVD May 19, 2020. See it.

Violent battle scenes from beginning to end. Piles of naked bodies lie in a dry river bed; babies and children are wrenched from parents' arms and slaughtered; bombs are dropped on fleeing victims. There are many instances of cold-blooded, point-blank shooting, including the execution of entire families. There are also vicious fist fights, stabbings, and a lengthy scene in which an angry mob beats and stomps a Nazi soldier to death.

Multiple scenes of Russian soldiers, victims, survivors, and partisans drinking vodka. One leading character drinks heavily. Several scenes in which men drink until they become very drunk.

Classic good-versus-evil situations. Bravery and selflessness are shown to be powerful forces against the enemy. Meanwhile, the Nazis wreak havoc on the Polish Jews -- rounding them up, killing them, bombing them, and spraying bullets into large groups of people (including women and children).
Most of the characters aren't clearly "good" or "bad." For instance, Russian soldiers are shown to be heroic but also anti-Semitic. And the Jewish victims who fight back are shown to be both honorable and selfish, just and unjust.
Parents need to know that this war movie isn't for kids. There are many fierce battles and violently graphic killings, as well as executions of unarmed citizens. Other images include hand-to-hand combat, mob beatings, point-blank shootings, and barbaric, inhumane treatment of the Jewish population. The language is very strong as well, with lots of harsh swearing. There's some suggested sexuality, but nothing explicit and no nudity. Soldiers and resistance members drink vodka in many scenes, sometimes to excess. But if they can handle the intense content, this movie could offer mature teens and young adults a valuable look at a momentous period of recent world history and a vivid example of heroism -- as well as power and prejudice run amok.

What's the story.
At the height of the Nazi occupation of Poland, three Jewish brothers find their family slaughtered and other Jews being rounded up in the countryside -- with mass killings or extermination camps their sure fate. The brothers escape into the dense Belarussian forest; on the way, eldest brother Tuvia Bielski ( Daniel Craig ) comes to the rescue of a small group of terrified Jews on the run. The refugees follow the brothers into the forest, against the better judgment of volatile middle brother Zus ( Liev Schreiber ), who's certain that their presence will make them all more vulnerable. With Tuvia's help, more and more displaced Jews find their way to the constantly moving Bielski encampment, and a fragile community is established. Some of the able-bodied join forces with the Russian resistance, while others remain with Tuvia, fighting the Nazis and disrupting their brutal purpose. Lives are lost; relationships are built; bravery and sacrifice are rewarded.
Edward Zwick wants to make passionate movies, and DEFIANCE is no exception. The story of a Jewish arm of the Resistance hasn't been told before, not like this. The film is exciting, shot with skill and a singular ability to show the harrowing savagery and heroic behavior that lived and breathed in the early 1940s.
Defiance is less successful when it zeroes in on the stories of the individual people who make up the refugee community. Then the filmmakers rely on certain stereotypes: the intellectual chess players, the leering hothead, the sibling rivalry. Still, it's well worth seeing, if only as an important reminder of where the world has been and how much care must be taken never to return there.
Families can talk about why so many movies about World War II and the Holocaust are still being made so long after the events occurred. What connection do stories about these events have with today's world?
Are there still instances in which strong beliefs set people apart and against one another? How do you think the media will end up treating current conflicts further down the line?
Why do you think the Bielski brothers were heroic? What made them different from the people who were afraid to stand up for themselves?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.

A 17-year-old’s perception of her father is forever altered on a three-day backpacking trip in India Donaldson’s excellent debut “ Good One ,” in theaters Friday .
Something happens. And then something doesn’t happen. But that’s more of the tear point on the already delicate fabric of a relationship that has been deteriorating from neglect for years.
The trip to the Catskills was envisioned as a joint family trip. Chris (James Le Gros) and his daughter Sam (newcomer Lily Collias) planned to go with Chris’s old friend Matt (Danny McCarthy) and his teenage son. But when they pull up to Matt’s place, there’s an argument taking place between the father and son, who retreats to the apartment as Matt stomps to Chris’s car. The teenage son is no longer joining them.
Donaldson focuses her camera on Sam, whose face and deeply expressive eyes tell you everything you need to know: This is weird and it doesn’t feel right. Suddenly she’s on a boys trip with a pair of sad middle aged men who have known one another for decades and whose lives haven’t worked out the way they thought. Both are divorced. Chris has moved on and has a new baby. Matt is still in the early stages of having his life upended. And, boy, do they talk about their failed relationships, one of whom is obviously Sam’s mother. “I couldn’t make her happy.” “She was the one who started doing things first.” “I didn’t want to get divorced.”
Sam rolls her eyes a lot of the time; Other times she responds insightfully. The guys seem to half hear her, but also not. They long ago decided on their own narrative, their victimhood, and Sam is not going to change that with a bit of innocent truth.
Are they always this honest with their disappointments, failures and shortcomings around their kids, you wonder? Or is this a new thing happening on this trip? Chris, in particular, has forgotten that Sam, as worldly and wise as she seems, is still ultimately just a kid. You sense that Sam has already started to realize that her father is as flawed as anyone; but on this trip, his full self is on display.
All of the acting is terrific and so naturalistic that it’s easy to forget that these are actors performing lines that they’ve memorized in front of a camera. Le Gros as the fastidious super camper, who freaks out about his daughter’s safety from bears when he discovers that Matt was eating in his tent, but does little later on; And McCarthy as a failed actor and now failed husband who can be charming and fun but is mostly annoying and gross. But the real breakout is Collias. Her face and presence, empathetic and knowing, carries the whole film in an unforgettable depiction of modern girlhood with all of the dreaminess, awkwardness and boredom.
Donaldson, like Kelly Reichardt , has a keen eye for the smallest of details; A reaction, a wince, even a blank expression that says everything. She also knows when to turn away from the dialogue and the people and give the audience a nature break. One of many great decisions was to have Sam on her period during the trip, something she deals with silently behind trees and bushes as the guys wait impatiently.
At one point the guys are dreaming about what they’d do differently if they had a second chance at life. Matt would be a philosopher. Chris would own a bookstore. What about Sam, they ask. She responds that hopefully she still has a shot at deciding on this life. Indeed.
These stakes might seem comparatively small in a movie landscape of deadly tornadoes, apocalypses and multiverses colliding. But that’s what makes it so special. It is humanity, with all of its beauties and disappointments, as most of us experience it. And it’s one that will likely stay with you for some time.
“Good One,” a Metrograph pictures release in limited theaters Friday, is rated R by the Motion Picture Association for “language.” Running time: 90 minutes. Four stars out of four.
A week after the biggest foreign incursion into Russia since World War II, The New York Times visited one of the spots where Ukrainian forces stormed into Russia and surprised the defenders.

Reported from the Sudzha border control post in Russia
All that remained of a Russian border post was a tableau of destruction: Sheet metal flapped in the wind, customs declarations fluttered about, and stray dogs roamed under a road-spanning sign that said, “Russia.”
Kicking up dust, Ukrainian armored vehicles rumbled past, unimpeded, as the flow of men and weaponry carried on in the biggest foreign incursion into Russia since World War II, an offensive now nearing the end of its first week since the breach of the border here in Sudzha and at several other sites.
At the crossing point, a Ukrainian soldier posted on the roadside waved at the forces passing by, days after Russia’s head of the general staff declared that the attack had been rebuffed.
At the border, the detritus of a losing battle — and signs of soldiers caught by surprise — were scattered about: bullet cartridges tinkled underfoot, discarded body armor lay on the asphalt.
Taking the fight to Russian soil was a weighty moment for Ukraine in its war with Russia, coming two and a half years after Russia launched a full-scale invasion and 10 years after Russia intervened militarily to seize territory and support separatist client states in eastern Ukraine.
Within the first month of the war, Ukraine did strike back with a cross-border helicopter assault and has regularly bombarded Russian oil refineries and airfields with a fleet of homemade drones. Two smaller, earlier forays into Russia by Russian exile groups backed by the Ukrainian Army ended in quick retreats.

Movie score: 7.5/10. "…Peter hasn't left Point Defiance in months, thanks to a prison ankle bracelet." Like a good roller coaster, the thriller starts slow and steady until faced with a long uphill climb. The higher you get, the coaster's vista is a preview to the complex mystery that unravels once you reach the apex.

The main message of the film is that people should stand up to those who are trying to do them harm. It was an engrossing story as well as being uplifting. The Jews were resourceful and brave. They were being hunted like animals and chose to live as humans. There is one particularly brutal scene, but no actual blood.
