Liam Neeson Once Again Says He’s Retiring From Action Movies

Liam Neeson has had a strange career. For the longest time, he was thought of as a serious dramatic performer – the type of actor who starred in titles like Schindler’s List. Then came Taken, the 2008 flick that inexplicably turned Neeson into an action hero. Ever since Taken, Neeson has stuck with his action star status – a move that sometimes backfired, like when the bleak drama The Grey was incorrectly marketed as a movie about Neeson fist-fighting some wolves instead of the harrowing medita...

Don’t answer this CQ

Yesterday, my wife, Silvia, and I sat down to watch a movie on Amazon. As I flicked through “Movies we think you’ll like” I happened to run across a movie name CQ. “Hey, look at this,” I said jokingly. “Let’s watch it,” Silvia replied. It looked pretty cheezy, but I thought that I’d give it a shot. Here’s how IMDB describes the movie: A young filmmaker in 1960s Paris juggles directing a cheesy sci-fi debacle, directing his own personal art film, coping with his crumbling relationship with...
