At its core, the model is still the Phil Connors self-improvement plan. In trying to finally make it to tomorrow, will Roy become a better father, a better ex-husband, a better version of himself? 28 years ago, Murray and writer/director Harold Ramis wrung this ingenious conceit for everything it was worth. All a diverting riff like 'Boss Level' can do is throw a few sword fights and bazookas in with the recycled pleasures and hope they look like its own. It's inchoate, but mostly fun. - Jake Watt Read Jake's full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-boss-level-nostalgic-action-and-quirky-foes

"Live Die Repeat" with less sense and more beheadings. The movie had us, lost us, had me, lost me... but I stuck it out till the end. The name of the Big Bad company is DYNOW Industries. If that makes you snort, you know what type of movie this is. I did break my "No-Mel Gibson Movie" streak. On the plus side, you get to watch Mel Gibson die more than once. Much prefer the Joe Carnahan Frank Grillo film "Cop Shop" - see that instead.
