Bullets 'n' Babes

Chicago (The Musical) 5/5

Love the (lack of) costumes.

I'm seeing it!

When?

I meant more "I want to see it" due to what you said

Chang Cheh takes a break from actual cinema to make a Thailand travel documentary with David Chiang and Ti Lung. Boy is it fun, irrelevant stuff from the legend. It's a mess too but once you acknowledge what you're in for, you'll be amazed at the poor pacing, prolonged sequences and David's groovy wardrobe.

Fun, isn't it? How they go from Thai box arena to the final showdown on that parking lot or whatever that was, with the fountain in the middle of the place.

Actually, that's all I remember from that film. According to my DVD Profiler I gave it 3/5 too back then (like 4 years ago or so). I think this was the film that made me realize that Ti Lung used to have hair.

Death Note (live action film) - 2/5
Bad casting ruined this for me. Light is supposed to be an over-the-top cunningly evil motherfucker, Battle Royale's Nanahara comes off as a stoic retard. Otherwise not too bad of an adaptation at all. I hear that the sequel is an absolute travesty though.

I don't recommend anyone actually purchasing this film though, just download it.

Father Ted: Season 3 - 4/5

Very funny, especially the Speed 3 episode

Now and Then, Here and There - 4/5
Very impressive.

Above The Law AKA Nico - 4/5
Hadn't seen this in over 10 years. Still the best.

Hard To Kill - 4/5
I enjoyed.

The Corruptor - 3/5
Decent effort. I just couldn't help but notice that the home video version has edited out bits of violence. Wierd.

hey,

Running On Empty 1/5

Poor real life retelling of a 1970s bank robbery in HK. Sloppy and rarely involving.

Majestic Thunderbolt 3/5

Godfrey Ho cut & splice fun.

Requital 2.5/5

Chu Yen-Ping in thievery/emulating mode again but rarely is it irritating plus his ultra gory take on gangster genre matter is enjoyable. Quality cast.

The Matrix HD-DVD 4.5/5

This looks simply stunning in HD.A classic movie,shame about the inferior sequels.

Under Siege - 4/5
Hilarious! I found the brutality of this film to be quite amusing. Seeing Tommy Lee Jones get a knife jammed, full blade, into his skull totally made my day!

Mickey Mouse in Living Color 1 (first few cartoons - 4/5

I enjoyed Interesting to see some early stuff. Donald is funny in "The Band Concert"

I remember liking this.

Considering the tripe you normally watch I'm surprised you picked on this one. 8)

hey,

Mark liked a movie I hated...aaaaaah....world is still tuned and allright. Bliss. 8)

Triple Cross - 4/5
Late Fukasaku delivers the best car chase film of the past 15 years. The amazing 10 minute street fight /chase sequence near the end is like Michael Mann meets William Friedkin. On the downside Keiko Oginome gets irritating at times.

Kalifornia - 3,5/5
Some problems around the halfway but the rest is great. Nice cast too, I especially loved Juliette Lewis.

Octopussy - 3/5
Moore's worst Bond. Still good, though.

You mean Moore's best Bond??

That'd be 'The Spy Who Loved Me'.

Nah, Octopussy is the most entertaining Moore Bond IMO.

Moves incredibly fast for a 2-hr movie and is packed with action set-pieces.

Spy Who Loved Me is OK, though it's pretty lackidascial in the first half.

worst, worst yes worst. The order would be
1) Live and Let Die
2) For Your Eyes Only
3) The Man With the Golden Gun
4) Moonraker
5) A View to a Kill
6) The Spy Who Loved Me
7) Octopussy

Die Another Day should be on that list and at number 1.

No Mercy for the Rude - 4.5/5
First thing I thought when I heard about this film: "Hmmm... Shin Ha-kyun playing another mute role!"
But boy was that film cool. Funny, violent and tragic.

But then, that's not Roger Moore...

Ah, ratings of just the Moore films. Nevermind then.

Deja Vu - 4 / 5
Very cool film, I enjoyed it, liked how the ending tied up with the beginning, pretty good time travelling movie.
