The Whisper Man - An OK Enough Crime Thriller Drama Novel Adaptation

There were so many new options available on Netflix this week and I chose to watch this crime thriller movie that was released on Friday. It has interesting premise plus it has well known lead cast that I believe would be good. All right then, let's just get on with the movie.

Brief Story Line

When the body of a missing child was found by the search team led by Detective Amanda Beck (Michelle Monaghan - Little Brother, Bad Monkey TV series etc), it was a major surprise as it was similar to the cases decades before done by the Whisper Man Francis Carter (Michael Keaton - The Flash, Birdman etc) who was already jailed for life. Beck decided to seek advice from the person who caught Francis last time, retired Detective Inspector Pete Willis (Robert De Niro - Zero Day mini series, Raging Bull etc) but he was not interested in helping. 

Motor City - A Stylish Action Thriller Drama with Minimum Dialogue that might not be for Everyone

This movie was put under Coming Soon section of various Indonesian cinema chains since few months back and I was looking forward to see due to its lead star. I think it was scheduled last month but somehow changed to two weeks ago and finally released mid of this week. As I was having other things, I only got the chance to see it yesterday with my wife. All right then, let's find out more on the movie.

Brief Story Line

Story was set in the 1970s Detroit where ex convict John Miller (Alan Ritchson - War Machine, Reacher TV series etc) was just free from probation and planned to marry his girlfriend Sophia (Shailene Woodley - To Catch a Killer, The Divergent Series: Allegiant Part 1 etc) who used to be in relationship with crime boss Reynolds (Ben Foster - The Contractor, Warcraft: The Beginning etc). 

(Mini Series) Lucky - A Solid Enough Series About the Struggle of Grifter Adapted from Best Selling Novel

I have heard about this mini series released on AppleTV+ since mid of last month which intrigued me. But as it was only made available once a week, as usual I would wait till its completion before started watching. However I did not realize that its final episode was released on 19 August until two days ago while browsing for new series. So I began watching then and just finished last night. Without further ado, here's more on the series.

Brief Story Line

Lucky (Anya Taylor-Joy - The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga etc) and her husband Cary (Drew Starkey - Outer Banks TV series, Queer etc) had just finished the task given by her father, the con-artist John Armstrong (Timothy Olyphant - Over Your Dead Body, Havoc etc) who was imprisoned for embezzling fund. Unfortunately something went terribly wrong and she became the target of crime boss Priscilla Masterson (Annette Bening - American Beauty, Being Julia etc) & her right hand man Dusty (Clifton Collins Jr. - The Bricklayer, Jockey etc) and the FBI led by Agent Billie Rand (Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor - Quantico TV series, King Richard etc) who wanted to capture her.
