100 Words or Less – Run All Night (2015)

The latest entry in the ‘Liam Neeson holds a gun’ sub-genre is more A Walk Among the Tombstones than Taken 1/2/3 (which is a good thing).

100 Words or Less – Blue Streak (1999)

An action-comedy starring Marmite comedic actor Martin Lawrence, and a decent supporting cast. A bank heist gone wrong leads to a series of increasingly unbelievable situations. But it’s not awful.

100 Words or Less – Wild Hogs (2007)

Tim Allen, William H. Macy, Martin Lawrence and John Travolta (not to mention Ray Liotta and Marisa Tomei!) star in what Google says is an “Action/Outlaw biker film”. There must have been some trepidation about putting “comedy”.

100 Words or Less Games – Platypus

Title – Canabalt Genre – Action, Horizontal Shooter Developer – Idigicon Publisher – KISS Ltd. Release Date – 2 June, 2004 Platform – PC (Steam) Review – Platypus is already over ten years old but that doesn’t mean it’s dated.
