Good, perhaps better than good, but certainly the lesser of the three films in the Vengeance trilogy.  It had some nice references to SFMV in it, and some nice casting, but didn't have the thematic weight the previous films.

The scene where Lee Geum-Ja has to re-create the murder of the child is arguably my favorite.

Oh, also it had Min-Shik Choi in it, which, as Bish will agree with, makes it worth paying attention to.

Of course, now that I've said that, many others come to mind.  The opening credit sequence, for one.  GORGEOUS.

Do you think you can keep this thread going with only one person, yourself, interested?

It's certainly worth a shot, I'd say.

So what somewhat obscure but not really foreign film adventure will you be embarking on next?

A good question, indeed.

I still haven't viewed Azumi 2 since I got it.  I also purchased a copy of that Chinese movie that links sex with watermelons that I linked to in some thread some time ago.  So perhaps one of those.

Not true.  It just takes a little imagination.  For example, we could create a six minute claymation short of Margaret Thatcher riding around in a circle on a unicycle in the middle of downtown Boise whilst farting and repeating the word "gorgonzola" over and over again until she goes hoarse.

I bet that's an original thought.

Of course.  I'll get back to it here in a second.

I'd hate for you to interrupt your procrastination.

Yeah well... whoops.

I find that if you resign yourself to feeling like a buffoon all of the time that these individual occurrences carry much less weight.
