It seems completely uncalled for, what did Lee ever do to piss anyone off? But that adds to the value it has. This movie simply disses Bruce Lee for no apparent reason.
Wow. The first hour I was thinking that he might really have lost it. But the plot tightens like a lasso. The pace at which meaningful, satisfying moments follow each other increases until the highly wholesome finale. Hours later reflecting on it, I think its his best since Pulp Fiction.
This is some good old Zed gets it laugh out loud cinema violence. None of that suffocating Netflix sadism. Ugh, I hate Netflix violence. Its all about making bad memories for the audience. And honestly I don't like the violence in Tarantinos idealistic revenge movies either, Im talking Basterds and Django. It just wasn't funny in any way, it was like he wanted to make a point with it. And Kill Bill had, to my kung-fu schooled eyes, only one powerful moment of violence, which was when the little Japanese girl handled the ball and chain with her neck. But here man this is all real. Pitts palm strike is instant classic not to mention his dogfood-fu.
And yeah its a movie about how awesome an actor Leondardo Dicaprio is. And how an actor really works, I guess.
Very weird. I was thinking about the ending of the Sopranos, and then decided to watch either True Detective or Moneyball. I chose Moneyball and hit the cursor where I more or less had left off before, and its a shot of the bleachers before an A's game and there's a song playing and guess wha song it is.
Fuckn film man. Magic.
