Day 38: Lord of War

You know, Lord of War was pretty damn good!

This movie was basically the movie Blow, only instead of Johnny Depp selling coke it’s Nic Cage selling guns to sierra leone. So I guess it’s the exact same as Blow, only much much darker and with a way worse soundtrack. The Blow soundtrack kicks ass:

But I digress….

Lord of War had Jared Leto in it, which is always a good time! This time he plays Cage’sĀ insane coke addict brother with a heart of gold, and his heart of gold is what leads to his demise, and of course it’s Cage’s fault so he learns the error of his ways. So the moral of the story is: don’t sell guns to waring african governments, mmmkay?! That sounds easy enough!

So I’ve glanced ahead at my schedule of what’s to come, and it’s starting to look like the good times are over. We’ve gone through all of the awesome Brukheimer movies, all of the killer action movies, the super fun weirdo shit from the late 80s, early 90s, but the horizon is looking grim my friends. It’s time to start trudging through the mud. I’m kind of specifically talking about World Trade Center coming up later this week. Woof.

Next up is The Weather Man!
