If you like Jackie Chan and prefer newer movies you should watch New Police Story. It's dark, gritty, action packed and exciting. You're missing out on a lot by disregarding Oldboy though.
Leon is absolutely fantastic, good choice.

Not Police Story, New Police Story (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0386005/). It's a kind of updated version of the Police Story franchise. Jackie Chan's character is less 'action hero' and more 'drama', but of course it still has a load of stunts and action in.
Also, Pulp Fiction isn't fifth in the IMDb Top 250 for no reason. I doubt anyone would regret watching it.

yeh i think i've seen that, is that the one where jackie chan goes into the building with his team and everyone of them die apart from him, so he gets drunk etc until the dudes in masks start robbing banks n jackies girl gets half her face blown off or something along those lines?

Reservoir Dogs is probably better for action actually, if that's the road you're going down.
Misawa
03-10-2009, 07:32 PM
For action yes, in comparison. Though neither are action films. Pulp is the better of the two by quite some way, as good as Dogs is.
Beowulf
The hours
The golden age
Troy
The secret garden

Did you know it's a remake of, naturally, an Asian film? And have you seen the poster art for it? I'll give you free air if you can name all the things that make no sense:

No idea. I subscribed to them, got one issue, they glitched my subscription, and didn't send me the free gift.

Have you watched... "The Curious Case of BEnjamin Button.."...
Although some of you might think that it's a boring film.. but
seeing it's plot.. the message is nice..
I just love how Cate Blanchett and Brad took their part..
Another good film I recently watched is " Knowing"..
Although I sees some flaws but I just love how the movie
goes....
