Description

The Long Kiss Goodnight is a 1996 American action thriller film directed by Renny Harlin and starring Geena Davis and Samuel L. Jackson. The film follows Samantha Caine, a schoolteacher suffering from amnesia, who discovers she was once a skilled assassin. As she tries to uncover her past, she teams up with a detective named Mitch Henessey to confront her former employers and prevent a terrorist attack.

The film received mixed reviews upon its release but has since gained a cult following for its over-the-top action sequences, sharp humor, and Davis's charismatic performance. The Long Kiss Goodnight also subverts gender norms by portraying a strong, capable female protagonist in a traditionally male-dominated genre.

Despite its initial box office disappointment, The Long Kiss Goodnight has become a beloved film among action movie fans and is often cited as an underrated gem of the 1990s. The film's blend of humor and intense action, along with Davis's memorable performance, have helped it to stand the test of time and continue to entertain audiences over two decades later.

Action & Adventure
Life of Pi, directed by Ang Lee and based on the Booker award-winning novel of Yann Martel, which was rewritten by David Magee for the movie, telling as a story about Indian boy survived shipwreck alongside with hyena, orangutan, a wounded zebra and a beautiful White Bengal tiger. Yann Martel have explored and studied lots of facts about an ocean life to give credence to story. That's why, despite the unbelievable storyline, the situations and solutions described in the movie could really take place in real life. The boy named Pi was raised in Indian family owning a zoo. At one day they decided to migrate in Canada with all of their animals and boarded the Japanese freighter. Soon after the leaving India, a shipwreck has killed all the people and animals except for little boy and four animals including furious tiger. All of them take a shelter on one small lifeboat. The boy has managed to survive in this uneasy situation for 227 days. A strong will to overcome the deadly perils, a faith in life and inexhaustible optimism leaded him to long journey adrift by the Pacific Ocean. The journey fortunately ends when their boat reaches the Mexico coast. The tiger (named Richard Parker, by the way) escapes to the nearest jungle, leaving the boy alone. Years after, Japanese Maritime officers interviews Pi in order to investigate the circumstances and consequences of shipwreck. Pi tells him as story about his peregrination, but no one believes him. Pi, feeling the lack of confidence, tells them another version of his wandering, without animals, instead of which a sailor, a cook and his mother act. In this butcherly version a cook kills a sailor and Pi's mother to use them as bait and food. After he tells the second story, Pi asks Japanese officers which of two versions they like most. When he gets the answer, confirming that story with animals is better, Pi says "…and so it goes with God".
