Ninja Hunt (1986)
Best action movie of the century!
Man I can't get all the hate on this movie. This is my all time best favorite film. I've seen it over a hundred times. Geodfrey Ho is brilliant! This movie should have won several Oscars. There is so much drama and passion in this that I cried several times when I first saw it. Trust me this is movie making at its best! I would recommend this film to anyone. Hollywoods latest offerings are no where near the depth and quality of this film. The acting in this film alone is enough to warrant repeat viewings. If you rent or buy (I recommend buying!) you will NOT be disappointed. This is the crown jewel of all ninja movies. American Ninja? No where near. If you really want to change the way you think about action films please do watch.
Hot Summer in Barefoot County (1974)
Bad movie - good vibes
I have to admit that HTIBC is really a train wreck of a movie if you consider its low budget and shoddy cinematography. The fact that the movie doesn't take itself seriously makes up for these shortcomings. Don Jones' character is that of a state investigator who is sent down to a remote, hick inhabited county named "Barefoot". The county Sheriff evidentally has a problem containing the proliferation of local moonshing which is pretty much done out in the open and sold at the only establishment in town that you can buy anything. The incompetence of the sheriff and deputy in not being able to see the forest for the trees makes up the comic element of the film. After watching HSIBC one seems to sympathize with the main character's dilemma and long for the simplicity of the rural life he has enjoyed during the course of the investigation. An academy award winner it's not but its not a waste of time either.
