2 azn films ^____^

[DeadKennedys]

I just rented and watched, not one, but two foreign films, and liked them both. That has to be some kind of record!

The first was Ong-Bak the Thai Warrior. To sum it up, ong-bak buddha's statue's head gets stolen, Ting (I know) [Tony Jaa] goes to Bangkok and finds himself taking on the underworld to get it back. Your typical martial arts movie, nothing sensational. But with no wires or anything, he effortlessly jumps over and splits under cars, cartwheels between parallel panes of glass, jumps through barbed-wire wreaths, and puts on an amazing display of Muay Thai, things that would tear Jackie Chan a new asshole. He's more than an acrobat. And except for the girls' english dubbed voice, I liked it alot. Jaa lacks the presence and character of bruce lee or jackie chan, but is an incredible artist nonetheless.

Next up was Oldboy, a movie about a man imprisoned for 15 years without knowing what he did, and then given 5 days to get revenge. This is a very complex movie and I can't say too much else without ruining it. I fell asleep for 10 minutes (no offense to the movie, I was just very tired) and missed a huge part of the movie. I highly suggest seeing this. It's got humor, romance (kinda), action, and everything in between. I will leave you with this thought: If you see someone doing incest, walk away. Just walk away.

p.s. I don't care if these have been posted before I'm the first to put them in the same thread nyah
