a movie is either well-made or badly made, nothing more, etc
The 'etc' is the key bit of the above.
Most films that make it to the cinema are 'well-made' in a boring kid of manner I suppose - but the types of content, for one, are of a variety: so w/Dirty Harry the good content are the action-y bits that are worth youtubing and the bad is the right-wing claptrap that surrounds it.
Not worth moving anywhere, its just some 'light' filler before the end of the poll tomorrow.

re: TLADILA, the character arc for Chance in this film (w/r/t viewer perception, what we're allowed to discover) is pretty singular as compared to other films i've seen w/similar morality.

haha true. i still think that having a cab driver actually manage to kill a professional killer, all the while protecting some hot chick he drove around before is bullshit. but i don't really care cos the movie is fun. also, love the fact that STATHAM! is in this but just for a few seconds.

IIRC the premise is really, really ridiculous but it is egregiously entertaining. righting wrongs is another good rothrock movie from HK.
corey yuen gets some flack from "hardcore" kung-fu dudes for indulging in "wire-fu" but i think he's a total master. that clip above is a great example. the editing is precisely choreographed with the action.
if you haven't, y'all need to see the legend a.k.a. fong sai-yuk w/ jet li.

Okay TLADILA is awesome. Goddamn that is one nihilistic motherfucker of a movie.
A+ car chase, with the train and all, damn. Also glad they did it no-music, love that shit.
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 20 February 2012 04:42 (twelve years ago) link
friedkin is def king of awesome car chases. between the one in french connection and tladila, he really knew how to handle those well. first time i watched french connection i was really impressed with the chase so i watched that scene again with the commentary. iirc friedkin was saying that they shot that scene in real traffic (not on a blocked street) and that at one point you actually see a car having an accident or almost.
― Jibe, Monday, 20 February 2012 04:57 (twelve years ago) link
(hides) I haven't seen French Connection. I will remedy that shortly.
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 20 February 2012 04:59 (twelve years ago) link

that car chase is one of the best ever
