Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

I streamed a mediocre, poorly dubbed French film last night titled "Chrysalis". It took place in the future and Albert Dupontel was a "Europolice" investigator trying to locate a machine that could erase and implant memories.

Point being that hand-to-hand was the primary altercation throughout the film. I found it interesting that juxtaposed to Asian-Anglo films there was none of this flying around the room with tumbles, twists, and twirling face kicks. It was toe-to-toe arm "fencing". Most flying about came from a shove or being slung into something. Brutal but refreshing over the typical "Hollywood" fight scene. I have noticed this form of "combat" in French and other Euro films mostly and find it much more realistic than dancing across rooftops.

Btw, I am not recommending "Chrysalis".

No, that finely tuned, delicate organ easily offened by the stench of the barrio. * - mr grits 10:58:37 04/13/11 (0)
