Hmmm...favorite movie?, favorite movie?
Its a tough call for me. I have two favorites.
My favorite action movie is without a doubt Kiss of the Dragon(Jet Li). This movie is action packed witch of coarse doesn't leave alot of room for a good story, but if your a kungfu fan like me then you can see past the predictability and lameness to the beautifully choreographed fight scenes done by Cory Yuen. I have to say that out of the modern day kungfu movies this is definitely the best I've seen. If anybody out there has seen and enjoyed Black Mask, The Enforcer, or Hitman you will not want to miss Kiss of the Dragon. One thing that gives this movie that extra spark is that it was made in English so you don't have to deal with cheesy dubbing.
My other favorite, but for different reasons is the Planet of the Apes. I haven't seen the original, but from what I hear this remake strays from it quite a bit. I did think the attitude of the main character(Mark Whalberg) was a little strange, especially toward the end. However the apes were terrific. The costume design was very realistic and that added with the ape-like movements of the actors made some very believable apes. I was a bit disappointed at the lack of romantic involvement between Mark Whalberg and Estella Warren, but I guess you can't please everyone. Look in
this thread to see some pics I posted of Estella Warren.
