Run Lola run is very good and if you haven't seen Amelie, then its definately worth looking at. I'm sure there are others on the forum who love this film as well. Yes, Chinese/Hong Kong films are very good for martial arts, action and period dramas/martial arts (ie Hero which stars Jet Li). I haven't seen Infernal Affairs 2 + 3, but am keeping an eye out for them. City of God is a brilliant film. I truly loved the film and own it. Last edited by ACMILAN1983; 17-08-2004 at 10:45. |

I don't know much about it, but it definately sounds cool and I do rate Zhang Yimou highly. Ps - I've only ever seen him in one film (The Returner) and only really know him from videogame series Onimusha, but Takeshi Kaneshiro is quite a famous Japanese actor isn't he? I also hear he's quite popular with ladies, lol |

To be honest, if you really have a problem with gore and violence, then I defiantely don't recommend them. However, if you have a slightly twisted sense of humour, or just enjoy black comedies, then they are actually quite funny and disturbing at the same time. I checked out the site j.lew. It was quite interesting with quite a number of films I haven't heard of. Is The Eye 2 good, as the original was very good. Audition is a classic and I also love the work of Hideo Nakata. He's famed for Ring (the original Japanese version) and Dark Water (many misunderstand this film as they think its a straight horror, when its just as much a drama, making it less scary). On the subject of Ring, most here will probably know of the American version. However, I definately recommend watching the Japanese original, which I still rank as one of the greatest horrors I have ever seen. I remember watching it because I was in a dark and cramped room and was watching it on video by myself at 2-3am and the sound was very loud. That is really the best way to watch scary films as you can really immerse into it (although I don't recommend it to those who scare easily). Also, those who like Hideo Nakata's work, you will be interested to hear he is directing the American version of Ring 2. phew, sorry for so many posts, but its really difficult to know who I am replying to unless I reply to them individually. |

Can't say I've ever heard of Irreversible, but I checked out a trailer for it and thought it looked interesting. I'm definately going to keep an eye out for it. I've never really had a problem with watching a movie more than once, no matter how disturbing or badly it affects me the first time. The sexual violence theme of the film reminded me of a French film called B@ise moi, which I found to be HEAVILY overrated, so I hope the same isn't with this. |

yeah, Takeshi Kaneshiro is a famous Japanese actor out of his own country... In Hong Kong and Taiwan of course. If I'm not wrong, he got Chinese blood also in his origin... When he speaks Mandarin, it never come across my mind that he's a Japanese... And yeah he's hot.... see his pic :http://www.jdiscshop.com/popya/star/...eshi/index.htm

American Beauty was quite good, I think Kevin Spacey is a great actor.
I saw Romeo and Juliet last night (the one with Leonardo Di Caprio). I was very impressed with the directors work, although I doubt I have to say much about how great the story and characters were. |

I saw an anime called Grave of the Fireflies last night. Its quite famous, although I'm not sure how many here would have heard of it.
Its set during world war 2 in Japan and shows the struggle for survival of a boy and his younger sister in the tough times. Its an excellent show and I recommend it to everyone here. oh, almost forgot to mention...I saw Harold and Kumar Go visit White Castle earlier and it was quite funny. Those who like Dude where's my car will probably like it (I personally thought it was a little better) and is similar in style and jokes. I have another film to add...Requiem for a dream. I'm sure many here have already seen it, but its a brilliant film that shows the effects of addiction on a persons life. Last edited by ACMILAN1983; 21-08-2004 at 10:10. |

Surprise to see no replies about Grave of the fireflies, I thought some people would have seen that.
I saw mallrats yesterday, it was ok, but nothing memorable. I also watched God of Cookery. Its by Stephen Chow (shaolin soccer) and is excellent. Its really funny. So no one else been watching films? Seems like I'm the only one posting in this thread nowerdays |

Just saw Alien vs Predator, a true high-budget B-movie. It was a fantastic movie experience though, because I saw it here in Barbados. You may wonder what difference that would make, so here it is:
- The predator looked like a dude in dreadlocks and body armour - Early during the showing a clearly high man in dreads, stood up and shouted "Ya mon, de Predator is a Rastafarian". For the rest of the movie everybody laughed and cheer for the Predator And who said talking at the movies was a bad thing? |

I just saw AVP too yest. It was alright. I'll probably give it a 6/10 or 2.5/5. It seemed way too short IMO. It's like I didn't feel the movie. It just passed by. But I guess I passed it because both sides, especially Predators, were so cool!But *spoiler alert*, I thought the director spoilt the atmosphere and just riduculed the whole of both series with the Predator trying to communicate with the human about the bomb, though it was funny. And the part where the Predator cut off the Alien's head was extrememly lame as well.
