Can't... see... picture.

And, if it is 'Kinky Boots', yes I have. It is an awesome film. Chiwy put so much heart into his role. Usually when you see a drag queen in film, the performance is almost on this side of mockery. He let Lola have the last laugh, cry, and hug.

Absolutely. I thought it was a very fine movie. I loved "Take the fight out of your face."

K, Chris, have you seen him in:


Was my favorite film of that year.

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.


Chris' picture is from Redbelt, but it won't allow a hotlink. I have not seen it yet.

Redbelt was a fantastic flick. Kinda atypical for films featuring martial arts.

Yeah, it's worth seeing. But certainly not a typical fight film. It's a David Mammet fight film.... a whole different creature.

Sadly, I was unable to stand watching 2012 all the way through. (I suddenly have a new appreciation for Michael Bay's work!)
But Chiwetel was the best one in the cast!

I'd rather gut sturgeon, but then who doesn't feel the need from time to time?

Halfway thru Redbelt & I have to say it IS delivering, mostly due to it's star.

Okay, a classic martial arts movie with a very literate Mamet twist.
Loved it.
Not a totally happy ending, but great nonetheless.
Chiwetel was amazing, as usual.

ETA: The Ju-Jitsu was excellent. May be a new high in recent films featuring the art.

SEE IT!

No, I haven't.
Are there cool fights?



Seriously, is it a film my Wife would like? If so, I'll be sure to rent it.

I originally thought it (Redbelt) to be a cheesy looking low-budget indy film (not very good in other words) but, based on your say-so, I will see it.

Catch Chiwey opposite Denzel in Inside Man. An entertaining film, although he's co-starring, he's solid as always. Well, time to go to Netflix and place it on the queue.
