Review:
I don't care what you people, critics or my mum, think, this film is
amazeballs. Seriously, though, it really is pure family fun. Its
witty, its cute, its stupid, and overall just hilarious. I want to
put my foot down and call it laugh-out-loud funny. Plus, Jay Chou is
adooooorable and a pronominal actor, a new and young Jet Li maybe?
That man is getting on... and still kicking butt. What was I talking
about? Oh right, this film.
Seth
Rogan even co-wrote this and I am, as a lot of you are too I'm sure,
a huge fan of pretty much all of his movies. He's so talented and
funny! Its a whole different kind of humour.
I
am, as you may have guessed, actually a bit of a nerd, and this film
really hit home with me in a whole different way, right in the
childhood. It kept so close to the old characters and their kind of
personalities, even with Jay Chou playing legend Bruce Lee was so
close!
Also,
who doesn't love Christoph Waltz as a bad guy? Amiright? Hell yeah I
am! I mean, he even just won an Oscar! Whoooo! He's pretty amazeballs
in this, too. I mean, to be fair, he kind of MAKES this movie as
awesome as it is.
Quotes:
'Kato:
You know Shanghai? Britt:
Yeah,
I love Japan.'
'Britt:
I will blow this guy in any proportion I want!'
'Britt:
Girls are a drag... I'm so glad we have each other Kato.'
'Chudnofsky:
You said I'm boring. My gun has two barrels. That's not boring.'
'Britt:
Kato,
I want you to take my hand and I want you to come with me on this
adventure. Kato:
I will go with you, but I don't want to touch you.'
'Chudnofsky:
Ha!
I'm ungassable!'
Pluuuussss
that whole scene at the start with James Franco saying Chudnofsky's
name, that shit is HILAIR.
