Resurrecting my old thread. Saw 3 good Asian flicks recently and decided to share.

Death Trance - Here's something to note. The guy fighting the buff dude at 1:40........Steven Seagal's son. Don't see the resemblance though. lol.

Two more AWESOME flicks.....

The Rebel - Thai martial-arts at its finest.

Inside - Probably the most gut-wrenching horror movie I've ever seen. Do NOT look for this one if you're squeamish.

I thought B13 was BAD, WICKED SWEET. I don't think I've ever seen a free-running movie before (as opposed to sports and martial arts). I liked it. Leito FTW.

LOVED Shinobi. Gennosuke was a BOSS. There was also this dude that reminded me of Ukyo (long white hair, regenerative abilities). The varied ninja in this movie kicked ass for me. Does anyone know if a KOF live action movie exists? If not, I have a cast all lined up. Mark Dacascos as Kyo FTW.

ah Mark Dacascos - still love the movie DRIVE

Theres b13 part 2 - b13 ultimate http://www.thefreerunningmovie.com/ check the trailer...

2 more goodies....

Butterfly Lovers - Like Romeo & Juliet with swords.

Fatal Vacation - Note to self: Never vacation in Thailand.

rassmatic · « **Reply #29 on:** February 18, 2010, 12:48:23 PM »

Add another 4 to the list.....

Truck - Didn't expect much from this one, but it turned out pretty damn good. If you're in for a good thriller, you can't go wrong with this.

Sex Is Zero - Probably the funniest asian film I've ever seen. It's like an asian 'American Pie' or 'Dorm Daze'.

There's a part 2, but it wasn't as funny as the first.

Princess Aurora - A story of a mother, grieving the death of her child, who goes on a murderous revenge spree. Highly recommended.

The Chaser - I saw this one some months back and forgot to post it. Absolutely amazing thriller. A remake should be hitting theaters soon. If you have to see one of the 4, make it this.

Lol romeo and juliet with swords..
Is there gonna be a matrix with guns anytime soon?

I kid.

TriniXaeno · « **Reply #32 on:** February 18, 2010, 06:58:29 PM »

Keep 'em comin, Keep 'em comin.

Not sure if So Close was mentioned in this thread already. I know I saw it on GATT somewhere, but that's another gem of foreign cinema right there.

rassmatic · « **Reply #33 on:** February 18, 2010, 08:48:45 PM »

ROFL @ Matrix with guns. I meant samurai swords. jeez

and @ Wyatt, u really liked So Close? I thought it was OK, but far from a gem. But I'd watch anything with Qi Shu. She's puuurty

TriniXaeno · « **Reply #34 on:** February 18, 2010, 11:06:54 PM »

yeah, well gem might be a strong word but I was thoroughly entertained, moreso than with some other "gems"

Heavy on the action gains points in my world. I come from the ArnoldDolphSlyDamme generation.

TriniXaeno · « **Reply #35 on:** February 20, 2010, 05:00:25 PM »

Just saw Shadowless sword. Not bad, not bad....in the vein of crouching tiger hidden dragon.

I'd say 6 hovering swords out of 10.

rassmatic · « **Reply #36 on:** February 23, 2010, 12:33:02 PM »

hmm....a 6? ur a hard man to please Wyatt. lol. anyhow, look at Brotherhood of War and The Chaser next.

I'm sure u'll give them both much higher scores.

TriniXaeno · « **Reply #37 on:** February 23, 2010, 08:14:23 PM »

Very well, Chaser is next up to bat as per your recommendation.

rassmatic · « **Reply #38 on:** February 23, 2010, 08:22:34 PM »

Nice. Tell me what u think.

TriniXaeno · « **Reply #39 on:** March 02, 2010, 11:30:21 PM »

chaser kicked ass man. Serious thriller iwmc

A real shocker too.

9 out of 10 hopeless hooker victims.

It was almost cliched but they put in enough twist and turns to keep it a very on the edge of your seat experience.

Damn good recommendation there Rage. Damn good indeed.
