With the action sensibilities of John Wick blended with a thrilling Taken-esque story, and hugely entertaining martial arts action throughout, Furie is an absolute riot from beginning to end. It may slow down a little in the middle period, it’s a mostly rapid-fire, relentless affair that takes simple action thrills and turns them into immensely enjoyable popcorn viewing. There’s a lot to love about Furie, … Continue reading Furie (2019)
Two-thirds of the way through the film I was tempted to call this a great movie, but sadly things kind of didn’t gel for me in the third act.

A true cook understands that preparing a dish is a sacred art, honorific in the exchange of life. Excellent preparation and strategically calculated ingredients make for a perfectly balanced marinate sauce over succulent (yet crispy) chicken.
