    Mixed feelings...

    Started off really good them went downhill fast with too much emphasis on 90s action movies for some weird reason missing out on tons of 80s classics that weren't even mentioned ie- Invasion USA,Big Trouble in Little China,Avenging Force,Delta Force,Rocky 4...very strange documentary

    Exciting Topic

    Impact of exciting topic - told from (several, but not all of) the horses' mouths - lessened by bland talking head/spastic A. D. D. "structure". End credits hint at a (potentially) more interesting version. #nitrosMovieChallenge.

    Ok but far from perfect

    I like the classic action films but this doco falls short in some aspects at the start they mention bond and Bruce Lee which felt out of place than later they talk about 90s films speed the matrix I thought this was about the 80s but they mention films like alien which was a sci fi film not action and jaws which isnt a action film I think the director rather than saying it was about the 80s should of said its about the genre as a whole

    So good. Lots of fun.

    Excellent documentary. Covers the the chronology of the genre with a shout out to the early action stars such as Steve McQueen and Clint Eastwood. Progresses on on through the 70s into the 80s with buddy cop thrillers, and the ever evolving muscle bound action stars like Stallone and Schwarzenegger. Then follows the trend through the 90s where more grounded actors were brought in doing their own action in films like The Matrix and and The Rock. progresses on to the modern day with with recent successes in the John Wick franchise and Deadpool. Loads of fun with a lot of valuable insight from some of the best filmmakers that this great genre gave us.

    Very well edited with lots of footage from the movies in question. An impressive list of film stars from behind and in front of the camera. You can clearly tell that this project was a labour of love.

    Part of me thought only give this 9/10 because it would have been nice to see some more of the the main stars such as Stallone or Schwarzenegger interviewed on camera, but I feel that would have changed the tone. This is a fan documentary made by the fans for the fans. Even when this this includes many of the actual filmmakers themselves.

    I cannot say fairer than that so 10/10.

    The director Oliver Harper is is hands down one of my favourite YouTube content creators when it comes to movie retrospectives and reviews. An absolute gentleman that knows his stuff and has a a great future ahead of him if he continues with work like this.

    I was born in 1983 and this was nostalgic.

    If you're a film junkie like myself then you'll appreciate the time and effort that Oliver Harper and everyone else put in to make this happen.

    I enjoyed it. Not my place to say where it could have been improved. It is what it is.

    Thank you.

      Vernon Wells: We are a society - especially the female part of it - we are a society that likes to look at things like that. At muscles. It was like: "oh, look at those muscles".
