A BRONX TALE - TAKING OUT THE TRASH - ONE BUM AT A TIME

"Here You Go M*ther F*ckahh !!!"

Thats probably not the most quotable line in the entire movie but its in there. I have to snigger somewhat uncontrollably when I watch this clip because it is so incredibly vile. There is a lot of cussing in this clip but its mixed into the soundtrack and your eyes dance nervously over the entire spectrum -- so you tend to MISS IT.

A Bronx Tale - go rent it.


NO no, better idea, better idea,.. go BUY IT. Pop it into your DVD player and watch it over and over again... just certain scenes may apply. Get yourself a loaf of crusty Italian bread and make a big mess of linguine and clams. Enjoy yourself.... G'head!

Its worth it.

I am disappointed that nothing of this stature has come out in the last ten years. Nothing has really toppled it. DeNiro disappeared as a director. I found his latest offerings contrived. But I found this camera work exciting, fresh and hard hitting. I liked it.


It gets away from this whole nausiating notion of ... IM RED HOT, YOUR RED HOT, LETS MAKE RED HOT LOVE !!! CRAP OF THE 2000'S. All this glitter and diva crap is non-existant in the 90's.... thank God. We didn't have much to work with in the 90's but it is apparent now in the 2000's that we have NOTHING to work with.... THE END. Every chick we see in entertainment is supposed to be "HOT" AND Every guy is supposed to be "THE IN THING". And every special effect is supposed to be, "THE BEST EVER" which is a load of shit. There are more crappy horror films on the market now that could rival the 70's and early 80's. Its enough to make the. "Incredible Melting Man" seem like, "Gone with the Wind".

But I'm getting ahead of myself here.....

In the 90's you had a struggling amount of style trying in VAIN to keep afloat. This film captures that. If you were angry in a film you could just let it out and bash someone with a trash can lid, (sort of like Sonny Corleone).

The Biker thing is RIGHTEOUS. I watch it once a week, (If I'm honest). Its easy to do because its hypnotic and its on AMC like every day this month. I must admit that I really like seeing these guys beat to peices. I like seeing their bikes beat to pieces too.... its refreshing. This whole entire movie.... well most of it.... is refreshing. I can do without the love scenes personally. But the violence thing is right on the money. MAN !!!

I like Chaz as SONNY. He may not be my favorite mob boss of all time in cinema but he is up there. I like the uptight Michael mob guy from Mean Streets and Vito Corleone from the Godfather. But what difference does it make.... this is brutal cinema. They don't take three hours to decide about "feelings" or whether or not who should go up and take the first punch like our limp movies do these days. They just walk up to the enemy and bash him with a bat.

Enough with the feelings... up with the bats.


If you can't join em' -- bash em' with a bat.

To enjoy this film to its utmost potential you need one of those plastic hats that hold two cans of beer with a straw in them. Wear one of those why don't cha..... and enjoy this thing ovah here.


I'm getting tired of rambling on and on.... Trust me, its great.
