Me: Always an Up-to-the-Minute Part of the Zeitgeist

So this came out years ago, my friends sang its praises way before me, etc...Nonetheless, a delightful flick full of hilarious choreography; it's refreshingly light-hearted and a great antidote to the mindless thugfests to which we're so often subjected. Sometimes you don't need your dark knights to be so airlessly dark. Chow likes to compare himself to Fred Astaire and why not? The movie is relentlessly playful and a joyous reminder that movies can still thrill and entertain as sheer spectacle. So what if it doesn't always make a lot of sense? It's Tarantino without the cloying need to be hip and an unabashed geekfest that cleverly weds Chaplin, kung-fu, and Stan Lee. Looking forward to checking out Shaolin Soccer and CJ7.
