Unstoppable - OUT OF CONTROL Tony Scott
COMMENT: A classic film by Tony Scott, a lot of great action! Here, the U.S. director manages to give the room a speed that you "live" experience of the train out of control. The plot seems optional in a movie where everything is based on the action very well made. Denzel Washington may be wasted in a movie like this but quietly makes his good figure. So, disconnect the brain and being dragged by speeding train decisamante because it is fun! Rating: 7 CAST: Denzel Washington, Chris Pine, Rosario Dawson, Ethan Suplee, Kevin Dunn, Kevin Corrigan, Kevin Chapman, Lew Temple, TJ Miller, Jessy Schram PLOT: A controller of the railways have to jump on a speeding locomotive with a young driver to be able to stop a runaway train, laden with highly toxic chemicals. TAGLINE: 100,000 lives in danger. 100 minutes to save them.

Shibumi of Trevanian
COMMENT: After reading the "prequel" recently published by the great Don Winslow could not resist the temptation to read the original . I must say that I slightly preferred the two to Winslow (probably because it focuses more on the action) but also that of Mr. Trevanian is a book! A very exciting spy story, full of action but also of Eastern philosophy and a truly legendary character! In short, I highly recommend the combination of books! PLOT: in the ancient Japanese game of Go, the image of the cranes that are returning to the nest and take refuge laurel symbolizes the struggle for the withdrawal of one of the contenders. Nicholai Hel - the protagonist of this novel - you know very well. Last descendant of a noble Russian family emigrated to Shanghai, which was adopted by a noble Japanese warrior ideals and polite oriental Nicholai is opposed to Western values \u200b\u200b- money, interest, success - rampant after the war ended. Exercises his inner strength, aiming to balance that leads to action unrepeatable. Using his skills and his almost mystical deadly fighting technique, becomes a decisive pawn, but invisible above which is involved in the game. Hel is indeed capable of "naked kill", a system that allows you to use common everyday objects as deadly weapons.
