The Jericho Mile
This is an 80s TV movie which is also the debut of my king <PERSON>, and all of that shows. This movie is really corny and cheesy at a lot of different points, mostly because of the music choices in certain scenes. This often makes most of the scenes feel really melodramatic and dated. But that's also part of the charm of it? I don't know why, but the mostly low stake conflicts and relatively pocket sized scope gives this weird sense of comfort and enjoyment. 952
But that doesn't mean it's completely devoid of weight as it deals with opportunities and dreams that people are destined for yet are completely uninterested in and vice versa, and this is the emotional core for this film and the base for the rest of the movie. Plus it's a <PERSON> movie so obviously most of the scenes are fully realized, believably realistic and effortlessly suave and smooth, especially in the delivery of the dialogue. <PERSON> is an Absolute master at putting you into this environment, you can feel the rush of the running scenes and there's just so much testosterone radiating from this movie which I also really dug.
This is my least favorite <PERSON> I've seen so far but it's just his debut and his trademarks are evident here. So yeah if you just want a cheesy 80s movie to watch, this one's probably for you. 698
