    Oy vey, David Ayer’s “The Tax Collector” is a big let-down | REVIEW

    I really enjoy David Ayer’s work. His screenplays can occasionally bring about intense and powerful portrayals of cops and street criminals.

    When he hits, he hits hard such as with his screenplay for Ron Shelton’s excellent crooked cop drama “Dark Blue” starring Kurt Russell, and his sensational police drama “End of Watch” with Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Pena. I even found Ayer’s 2014

    Adapted from the namesake Norwegian novel, “Out stealing horses” | REVIEW

    “We decide for ourselves what will hurt.”

    “7500,” there’s trouble brewing on the Berlin to Paris flight

    It is rare when a Hollywood thriller can glue us to our seats. These days, big budget films in this genre are too concerned with creating big action set-pieces meant to be eye candy, rather than crafting smart and interesting situations where the tension comes out of the moment and the characters.
