  4. Watched The Furious in the cinema.

    The plot is fairly simple. Sadly it's yet another HK movie that reinforces the image of Thailand as a wretched hive of scum and villainy, the English parts of the dialogue read as written by a highschooler, and are dubbed in the worst way that sounds like someone in a hurry to go to lunch is just reading the lines.

    It is not the 1980s anymore. Why do you even dub? It really drags down the immersion. I don't get it.

    But this is a martial arts movie, and wow, the martial arts.

    Not only is the choreography varied, interesting and creative, where different people have distinct personalities and unique styles, and the fighting is creative, making great use of environment and props, but the fighting is really part of the story arc, tells the story, develops the relationships between the parties fighting.

    It is also, and you may count this as a positive or a negative – as for me I'm neutral in terms of enjoyment but fascinated at the decision – the absolute bloodiest and goriest I have seen in a high-quality martial arts movie.

    Fun to see Joe Taslim, whom I previously saw in the Chinatown Wild West TV series Warrior, where he was triad right-hand man Li Yong. Highly recommended show, btw, sadly canceled too early.

    The movie has several ideas I really appreciate, which get overshadowed by the lack of effort in dialogue and writing. It's cool that people speak Mandarin, Thai, Filipino, Indonesian and English. It's even more interesting that the main character speaks sign language. Even more could have been done with this, where he and his daughter could have used this skill, caused by a disability, to their advantage. There are also conflicts and moral ambiguities that are interesting, but get resolved too quickly or are underused.
