Collection of six short films from Nova. "Hayracker" — Morning at the ranch finds one of the hands asleep in the hay rack. and the foreman decides that discipline should coincide with his own lusty needs. "Lonesome Cowboy" — Hunky cowpoke and macho bartender match one another stroke for stroke. "Tenderfoot" — A greenhorn gets a pleasant demonstration of bunkhouse protocol when he inadvertently catches an experienced hand in the midst of his midnight ritual. "Midnight Cowboys" — Evening can be a solitary time but it's not too bad if you have a warm fire in the fire pit, a guitar to strum and a horny buddy to keep your interest up. "Horseplay" — Unloading bales of alfalfa leads into some heavy sex for a couple of very cocky ranchhands. "Corralled" — A couple of horse-cocked studs begin at ease on a corral fence but they are soon taking hot turns at breaking in one another's watering mouths and twitching assholes.

Spiral could easily spawn new sequels and will most likely churn a decent profit. Is it a good Saw film? Absolutely. Could it have been revolutionary though? Also yes.
In addition to the cast being delightfully diverse this time around, the film was just loosely-plotted and action-packed enough to keep a casual fan like myself entertained. While I do agree that the writing of Cole left much to be desired for an original character thrust into a preconceived universe, none of the characters seemed particularly fleshed out in terms of personality; however, I think that's to be expected when you're watching a film literally inspired by a video game.
Given a choice between a man and a mountain, it’s safer to choose the mountain.
Like millions around the world, I've been waiting four years for the renowned #SnyderCut. I'll never forget sitting in the theater on opening night, witnessing a CGI mouth on Henry Cavill's face about five seconds into Justice League. That's a thing of nightmares if I must say. Anyways, right then and there, I knew I desperately needed Zack Snyder's film.
Even without the messaging, Mercy does not hold up as a movie. It's sloppily done and the mystery doesn’t tie together at the end.
Overall, Sand Castle was another lack luster war drama that will eventually fade into the many similar war dramas I have seen throughout my life.
