DRIVE remains one of the best North American made martial arts movies ever made. Dacascos and Hardison are terrific together. The choreography and action direction by Koichi Sakamoto is chef’s kiss. An absolute action classic!!

Here is my latest piece for Polygon. In honor of “The Accountant 2,” I rank 20 films about working class action heroes. But the rank is not by quality, it’s by how much the heroes’ job affects the movie itself. It’s all a bit tongue in cheek but I’m very proud of it.- www.polygon.com/action/55176...
Action heroes, normal jobs
Are they working hard or hardly working?

Gareth Evans long awaited film is his homage to the heroic bloodshed genre though he does get some gnarly hand to hand action in that he’s known for. Hardy is great and I liked the story. I felt like there were some character beats missing that would have pushed it into the next level for me.

Following up The Raid the first fight scene of part 2 had to be amazing and mission accomplished. The tension is palpable and the action so inventive showing the close quarters effectiveness of Iko using his surroundings along with Evan’s camera work and visceral violence. 🤌🏻🤌🏻

Still one of my favorite fight scenes from The Raid. The moment it cuts to Iko jumping on the table I’m in action movie heaven. Amazing camera movement, fast and furious blocking and tracking followed by an awesome fall as the exclamation mark to the scene! Masterclass.

Caught this screening last night, this movie holds a special spot for me as it was the first anime I ever saw. Quality of the transfer was good but bit blurry in some shots. It was a new dub that was……..not great. Was disappointed about that but still had a good time.

First time watch over the weekend, ashamed to say I’ve never seen it as a long time Jackie fan. Instantly made its way into the top 5 for me. Hilarious and action packed as many of his movies are but this hit different. Made me nostalgic for my trip to HK last year and want to go back soon if I can
