Never enough Cynthia

There's never enough of Cynthia's fighting or her lovely face. I love watching her fight.

I think that she's so beautiful. She would be a great candidate for a long shot of her face. Notice the long shot on Shu Qi in Millennium Mambo, or the shorter long shots of her in So Close. Tarentino used that well with Pam Grier in Pulp Fiction. The 8 minute opening of Natalie Portman's face in Free Zone was pure bliss.

The scene at the beginning where she rips her skirt to fight the bad guy, wow.

What I couldn't tolerate was the horrible dubbing. I didn't know they spoke Cantonese in Japan.

The love scene was so HK. I'm from HK. It wasn't sensuous, it wasn't realistic, it wasn't believably passionate. The love scenes in Tampopo were shockingly erotic and passionate. The sex scenes in Korea's Bad Guy made me feel such genuine disgust, but it was real.

Logic, are at least a semi-smooth flow of credible story line, was missing.

That leaves nothing but more Cynthia. I don't know, maybe I'm just gushing. For me, never enough Cynthia.
