By Peter Kowalke on September 26, 2020

I haven’t been watching quite as many movies lately since it is American football season, but I still found some time to watch a few lately. Here are some of the better movies I’ve seen lately.

The Pool (2018)

Day is stranded in a partially filled deep pool next to a crocodile farm.

Train to Busan (2016)

A father and his daughter are on a train to Busan on the latter’s birthday to see his wife. However, the journey turns into a nightmare when they are trapped amidst a zombie outbreak in South Korea.

Escape from Pretoria (2020)

Two white South Africans, imprisoned for working on behalf of the African National Congress, are determined to escape from the notorious Pretoria Prison.

Also Seen Recently (Honorable Mention)

These are some of the other movies I’ve seen recently that are worth a watch. While not quite as good as the films above, they still are well worth your viewing time. Consider these honorable mentions.

The Raid (2011)

Operation Odessa (2018)

In the early 1990s, three friends set out to hustle the Russian mob, the Cali cartel and the DEA for the score of a lifetime.
