That's an accurate assessment of the movie, it's modern day exploitation. I liked it but I can 100% see where people who don't are coming from.

Man Headshot sure loves to show the murder of random innocents. Left a bad taste in my mouth. How's The Night Comes For Us in that regard?

What is it with all those Netflix movies that sound great on paper but end up being forgettable in the execution despite the obvious talent and money behind them?

Not to sound too edgy, but I was led to believe that The Night Comes For Us would have considerably amped up levels of gore, but I'd say it's a step down from Raid 2 or Headshot.

Awh, Lady Snowblood is much worse than I expected, which I guess was far too much. My feelings constantly changed from hopeful to disappointed and it never quite got to the point where I felt like it was doing anything really well or interesting. Female Prisoner Scorpion is just so much better in every single category and the movie made me wish I was watching that.

Ok how about this, you go see Aliens and then lock yourself into your home for 2 weeks, never coming into contact with anyone. Worth it? Not worth it, Aliens is overrated

Olympic Mathlete posted:Uwais is in Beyond Skyline, how is he in that and how bad is the movie? I saw the first and aside from the weird poo poo at the end it sucked rear end. It's loving amazing, no joke. It goes exactly where you would want an alien invasion movie with the crew from The Raid to go. I was hooting and hollering to myself all throughout the ending.

I actually thought the first one wasn't that bad, but there's really no reason to watch it if you only want alien vs machete action. edit: Thinking about it, it's sad that basically everyone who will watch this movie will know about the Raid connection. It's definitely set up to be a huge surprise when it finally, and very randomly, happens. married but discreet fucked around with this message at 15:53 on May 29, 2020 |

Female Prisoner 701 is so much better than Lady Snowblood in literally every measurable and unmeasurable way, it's not even funny. The downside is it's absolutely a skeevy exploitation film full of sexual violence. Sequel is less good, still better than Lady Snowblood, third one is almost as good as the first again.

Nemesis 2 is the sequel to Albert Puyn's strangely dope and influental 1992 cyberpunk action movie Nemesis. It trades genderfluid cyborg gunplay with being bizarrely horny for an extremely muscular white East African tribal bikini babe and a weak predator knockoff sent back in time by the machines to kill her. It could have been way worse for such a disastrously sounding pastiche of many better movies, but I was entertained throughout.

I'm watching Korean action movie The Villainess right now, and while it's quite boring and just not very good overall, I am incredibly impressed with some of the camerawork/editing. That motorcycle fight scene is mind-blowing.

Is Asia still making low budget wuxia movies nowadays or is everything an epic Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon affair? Amazon Prime's huge backlog of Shaw Bros and associated studio movies is so drat soothing to watch.

A clip of The Final Master was posted a while back and made me watch it, and it's an extremely dope blend of classic wuxia choreography with a very arthouse sensibility for moviemaking. This is exactly the kind of movie I was looking for. Give me more modern, non epically scaled kung fu movies about rival schools, nerding out about fighting styles and masters teaching students the ancient arts.

Halloween Jack posted:Terminator Salvation was a troubled production that resulted in a convoluted mess of a story, but it looks great. It's worth watching for the production design and cinematography. Was that scene in the theatrical cut? This looks great. I remember absolutely hating it when it came out and this is making me want to rewatch it.

The movie would also be over very quickly. Alternatively the writers would have to think of some other way to convey danger to the protagonist other than them getting thrown around.

Neo Rasa posted:Same with The Butterfly Murders, this was Tsui Hark's first movie and it starts out seeming like a sort of typical wuxia flick and then...becomes like an almost giallo/slasher movie with a an all black armor-clad killer whose identity is a mystery and everything. Late to echo that recommendation, with the additional note that the subtitles on Amazon are laughably bad. Like, I was crying from laughing so hard. And the ending is absolute batshit.

I totally checked out of John Wick after the second, the worldbuilding was so cringey. They really forgot what made the first one so good - the concept of a man insanely brutally slaughtering hundreds of people cause they killed his dog.
