The Karate Kid 2010

Posted on July 16, 2010 by OGR

I can’t for the life of me think how this is a 2 ½ hour film, I just can’t work out how they managed to do it. It is either sleight of hand or mismanagement of film but all I … Continue reading →

Gorgeous

Posted on June 28, 2010 by OGR

New Police Story (Police Story 4)

Posted on June 25, 2010 by OGR

Thanks to some young, annoyingly “hip” criminals who rob banks, wait for the cops and then shoot the cops, Jackie has become a drunken piss-head has-been Supercop. This is because the troubled rich and privileged kids laid a trap for … Continue reading →

Miracles

Posted on June 15, 2010 by OGR

It is the 1930′s (ish), and poor old Jackie is broke, especially after he is hoodwinked into handing over his life savings with the promise of a job. After he foils a moider, in a (frankly) ridiculous turn of events … Continue reading →

Who Am I?

Posted on June 3, 2010 by OGR

Jackie’s last truly “great” film, but he goes out with a big bang. Someone has discovered an amazing, albeit extremely volatile power source. Of course bad guys want it for evil purposes so Jackie is a member of a mercenary … Continue reading →
