Until the Day I Die: Part 1

OK so usually I post reviews of movies that are under the radar and most of the time these films have been misleading by other critics or they were overly praised or hyped up. So when I read a review about this movie that I never heard of and actors who I heard even less of I was expecting to not agree with the reviewer who said this was a great movie, But I was definitely wrong and I agree this really was a good movie. The plot and character set up of this movie was pretty much ingenious.I'm not saying that this movie was on the same level as Training day or a Hollywood production but this indie film in some of the scenes gave me that feeling just a little bit.I gave it a 8 out of 10 because in the beginning there were a couple of things that happened and it gave me a feeling of kinda unbelievable or they were stretching it just a bit to give us more character development. But the movie undoubtedly did need this for comprehending & understanding the mind set of someones actions. all in all however the dialogue and the acting of the main character surprisingly was brilliant. There is so much anger in our world today and a lot of writers and directors hide behind different truths we are faced with in society or take the easy way out by showcasing prejudice or racism by one character towards another,But this film does the exact opposite by showing anger and emotion all stemming from one single event regardless of race color or creed. I like that this movie didn't hide behind any of the usual excuses of why we are angry but it shows that the same circumstance inflicted by a tragedy will lead different people down different paths. The speed & execution of the writers and directors in this movie along with a twist and surprise revealed at the end makes this movie a great sleeper to introduce to your friends.A quick sex scene not to revealing, Violence, and vulgar explicit language, but in todays world I have seen more on cable stations at 9 o'clock at night.Get past a critical but sort of flimsy first 10 minutes And the rest is a well paced joy ride that I believe a lot of action movie fans would enjoy.

Knowing I'm one of the first reviewers for this movie, I will try very very hard to withdraw from putting out any Spoilers! Let's start with the marketing of this movie. Shot in 2014? I never ever heard about it until this month! (March 2016). I saw this DVD in Walmart, and like most "less popular" movies, I try to get a decent non-spoilering review of the film. Their was absolutely nothing that I could find on the web. The only promo for this film was an uploaded video on a Youtube page. The page is under the name "Plus Urban" and that is in fact the production company, that I also never knew existed. The movie itself, story-wise is extremely well done. It has everything that most others try to throw into their films, and sadly are not able to capitalize on. "Until The Day I Die" is a "revenge" film. So yes, their have been many other "Death Wish"-Pseudo films out there. The story of vengeance and redemption is definitely not new to us movie-goers. Story follows Officer Gomez in the LAPD, who has a grudge against a ruthless criminal boss. The Good vs. Bad grudge match was extremely personal and intense. Gomez, believes that all the criminal drug dealers, murderers, rapists, gangs, etc. are filth polluting society and victimizing the innocents. He, indeed lets those believes effect his job. The violence is petty graphic. The Language is strong and constant. There are drugs and alcohol present in the movie, some of the story lines revolve around drug dealers. As far as Sexual Content goes, there is a short non-graphic sex scene. Also a lot of the course language is dirty innuendos. (Both English and Spanish curses). I give this 9/10. I really enjoyed this film right from the opening to the closing credits!
