I figured it out. I was thinking of Re:Born where he, like...shoots a guy in the neck...with a pistol magazine...and a pen...but no pistol.

This was a fun movie, but the plot takes the hero and his small squad off into a forest about 3/4 of the way through and the scene goes on too long by about double, I think they shot a bunch of ‘cool’ stuff and then didn’t have the heart to cut any of it.

Actually it was 12 in the initial meeting. :barf: And knowing that sure makes the scene read grosser.

The final script doesn't mention her age, but Karen Allen played it as if she'd been 15, which is still very very gross, even making allowances for the period.

Anyone else see The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion..? I don’t know if I could really recommend it as the first three-quarters of the runtime is like some shot-for-tv twee Korean drama about a schoolgirl winning a talent show and it drags interminably but then the last half-hour goes bonkers, maybe the s-l-o-w start makes the sudden violence all the more :eyepop:

I liked Tak Sakaguchi's quick, brutal style in RE:BORN so I took a look at his filmography; I didn't realise he's been in a lot of the mid-00's 'splatter gore' genre that came out of Japan. I picked one I hadn't seen before - YAKUZA WEAPON - and was quite thoroughly amused. As a manga adaptation I was expecting some silliness but it was exceptionally ridiculous - the fistfight scenes themselves were a little roughly lit and shot, and the whole move has a cheap DTV feel, but if you want to see an insane yakuza have his dead sister turned into a nude cyborg who shoots a machinegun from her mouth and rockets from elsewhere, this may well be the film you have been searching for.

The early Seagal stuff where he did a bunch of Judo-style throws and shoves was an eye opener when all the other martial arts stuff I had seen was very kick-based.

Of course these days if you could somehow Judo from sitting in a chair he would be absolutely unstoppable.


This is a re-use of the Yojimbo / Fistful of Dollars plot, but it is in no way a good movie.

Just watched 48 hours and most of Another 48 hours for the first time and other than the first movie's insane amount of racist dialogue (INSANE), there was a deep drop off in the quality between the two, and I'm not sure why. Same director, same set-up, I guess there's more of a focus on inert bad guys? I don't know.

Also Eddie Murphy's arc in the first movie is to get laid, with him just barking at random women to gently caress him and trying at one point to pretend to be a lawyer to gently caress some ladies in a closet.
