Quick Change – Quickie Review
Underrated Bill Murray vehicle, the first half is among his best work. After a blazing start, it fizzles somewhat during the second half. All in all, still entertaining.
Jacob’s Ladder – Quickie Review
Most fun you’ll ever have being confused while watching a movie. A real mindf*ck.
