I had heard great things about "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" so decided to watch it when it came on cable.
As I did I was struck with the similarities between it, and a porno movie.
The only difference was that the scenes connected by the loose dialogue and horrible acting were fight scenes, not sex scenes.
That was the only difference.
The similarities: bad acting, a script that made no sense, well choreographed action sequences, a girl-on-girl scene, a girl with 12 guys scene and a bonus for TON only, lots of good looking Asian women.
That movie is regarded as fucking fantastic by everyone who 'gets it'. If it's not your thing, that's totally fine...but I dont really see how you can say the acting was bad when it was in a different language. House of Flying daggers was also excellent, if you want to give this thing another try sometime.
ReplyDeletePaul prefers the great acting by Shaq and Penny in his favorite movie Blue Chips
ReplyDeletePaul is the only one out of the three of you to star in the silent film The Wrong House. However, he was severly overshadowed by his co-star, whose presence was incendiary despite his lack of voice.
ReplyDeleteAs for Crouching Lady Hides The Dragon, I have not seen it.
It was a movie about flying Chinese people, what's not to get?
