[Kaius]

Judging by the poster this looks unwatchable.

I agree.

[Kaius]

I'm sure plenty of you will pick an art house drama or true story thriller or a 3-hour international war epic, so I thought I would keep it light.

I love dat moobie

i loved it when it first came out, but i'm way more picky about stupid humor now than when i was a teenager

[VinylGuy]

Got this one. Ill be watching this tonight.

[Rangi Guy]

What a cool film, but let me start by saying that I fucking love Kung Fu


The story wasn't anything original, but that's not what Kung Fu movies are about. The fight scenes were spectacular, the story moved along at a pace that kept you interested. Dialogue was kinda clunky though.
I liked what they'd done keeping colour to a minimum to give that bleak slum feel

[epilogue]

Pretty sure I won't get to this this week. Hopefully, next week, though.

[bada]

I watched the first ten minutes. I kinda hate everything about it but I am committed to watch everyone's picks and Kaius is good people.

[Rangi Guy]

This club is so lonely

[epilogue]

I have a feeling this is pretty much how this is gonna go. At least for the first three months. Then it'll stop all together.
