This Week on movie!!


As many of you didn't know. that is there's a movie out this week, Screening start in the Asian country first. Asian audience get to watch this film before the US or European. and to me It's not a Chow Yun Fatt Movie, it's not a Michelle Yeoh Movie. but it is a great Jonathan Rhys Meyers, and his best to date.
Anyone who know Jonathan most of his movies are British Indie movie but in recent years he appear in Woddy Allen's and Mission Impposible have makes his career most prossible. and of course before he crosses the pacific he is already a famous face in modelling in UK. Regardless of of it as we all say that's all history.
His performance in "The Tudors" the TV show (18PG reminded) are remarkable and he is one of the few young and good actors that's been over looked by the American studios.
His career is doing great now.
back to Huang Shi, "The Children of Huang Shi" a.k.a. "Escapre from Huang Shi" is a movie about the revolution Red Flag War in China and how a foreign reporter manage to saved the children from being drafted into the civil war. It is a great story, a great character story. and Jonathan's performance is never before this phenomenal. I will say some people that's looking for a action movie is going to be dissapointed. If you are looking for action, go for Forbidden Kingdom. this one is going to be as OSCAR as they can get, it's more like "The English Patient" only the backdrop is China. and the culture and manor of the character and story is more Chinese.
