Yuen Biao, "On the edge of the law"

Notice: This review may contain spoilers

Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao , friends since they met children in the Peking Opera school, sharing the stage during the 80 in movies like "Pirates of the seas of China "or " The 3 dragons . Biao is known of the three, at least for Western audiences, and often is associated with the films he intervened Chan, Hung or both. However, in his films alone, has enough interesting titles like this takes us.

"At the edge of the law" also known by the title of "Stronger than the law" , was directed by Corey Yuen in 1986 and Biao her debut as producer. It plays the Crown prosecutor Jason Chan, who after seeing two dangerous criminals are acquitted for lack of evidence after the assassination of key prosecution witness, decides to take justice into their own hands. Meanwhile the Inspector Cindy Si (Cynthia Rothrock ) will try to chase.

Other characters are more or less relevance to the plot are the inept fellow inspector, ( himself Corey Yuen), the father of this, played by veteran Wu Ma , a regular in the films of Jackie Chan and superintendent of police, who gives life Melvin Wong , another usual Hong Kong action film of the 80. We also have a martial arts experts and casual players Peter Cunningham and Karen Sheperd, with brief papers but noted for his fights with Yuen Biao and Cynthia Rothrock , respectively.

In this film we have good Hong Kong style fights, where the main characters show their skills. Yuen Biao shows his great talent for fighting, especially in the final fight takes place in a hangar. As Cynthia Rothrock, we can say the same thing. It's a shame that after wasting his talent in his American stage, in productions of lesser quality than those that took part in Asian stage.

Moreover, we must mention the viewer can freak out a bit by the contrast in the film and I mean that we comic moments featuring mostly by the couple Corey Yuen and Ma Wu , other moments of high drama, with an abundant number of deaths. In fact, in assembling the character of Hong Kong Cynthia Rothrock died at the end of the film. In the Western version survives but the protagonist ends up behind bars.

This film was once released on VHS in our country by Lauren Films today but still unreleased on DVD, which is a shame because the action movie fans should not miss, despite be a film that has aged badly.

best: fighting, such as Yuen Biao in the hangar or the Cynthia Rothrock with Karen Sheperd

worst: the uncertainty that produces its balance between comic and dramatic scenes

"Resident Evil: beyond the grave", the weakest of the series

I must admit I'm a fan of the series of "Resident Evil" . The first three movies without being masterpieces, they managed to pierce a little fun while Milla Jovovich killing zombies. I must also confess that director Paul WAS Anderson in the black list of many critics, does not bother me at all, at least in the action genre is concerned. His first installment of the series I liked, "Soldier" I think a movie very undervalued and "Mortal Kombat" and "Death Race" are quite entertaining. So with this background, in my opinion this new release the balance should tilt toward the positive side, but that has not happened.

The film starts where he finished third, Alice ( Milla Jovovich ) is endowed with powers and also has an army of clones, with which assaults the base of the Umbrella Corporation in Tokyo. Prior to destroy everything, Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts instead Jason O'Mara) gets injected with a vaccine that takes away his powers. Furthermore, all clones die in the assault. So Alice goes to Alaska, where the survivors fled the third installment. There is only an amnesiac Claire Redfield (Ali Larter ). Later the two head to Los Angeles where he found a group of survivors, which is Claire's brother, Chris ( Wentworth Miller ).

The main problem with this fourth installment is that there is little action, and there is filmed in slow motion. In addition, the undead are in the background, like the second installment. And this is a problem, since the series is geared towards action rather than to terror and if two elements are scarce, it goes wrong. Yes're grateful not skimp on the violence.

The best sequence takes place at the beginning, with the assault on the "Matrix" Alice and building replicas Umbrella. Subsequently, the action fell to the undead led by the giant ax man, burst into the building of the survivors. There if no action but an abuse of slow motion. Furthermore, one expects a epic showdown between Alice and Wesker but it is not mutated. And on top gets more interesting when the film is just as the credits begin and there is a scene with Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory ), which appeared in the second half.

as regards the distribution that the two pretty actors are the most commonly look on screen. The two male leads (Boris Kodjoe and Wentworth milllo ) are eclipasados \u200b\u200bfor them, especially star of "Prison Break" , which is quite wasted in the film. Yes out among secondary Kim Coates ( "The Last Boy Scout" , "Black Hawk Down ) in one of his paper from his estilo.También must mention the presence of English actor Sergio Peris -Mencheta .

Regarding the use of 3D, then it must be recognized that not disappointed. Unlike other recent productions as "Clash of the Titans" or "Airbender: The Last Warrior" , was shot in three dimensions and not adapted later. This means that in its three-dimensional viewing, the viewer will throw various objects, which is ultimately what is intended with the use of 3D in a film of this nature.

Finally, a weak quarter and hopefully many defects remedied in the fifth installment, but considering that this is the more money you raise in the series, it seems clear where to go to get the shots (pun intended) in the next chapter.

What mejor : la violencia del film.

Lo peor : la escasez de escenas de acción y el abuso de la cámara lenta en dichas escenas

For Finally we have in Spanish the trailer for "Machete"

A menos de un mes para el estreno en nuestro país de "Machete" (Id, 2010), por fin nos ha llegado el trailer en castellano. Recordemos que el origen de "Machete" está en un trailer falso que acompañaba a aquel experimento del año 2007 de  Quentin Tarantino y Robert Rodríguez llamado "Grindhouse" . Due to the good reception given to this fake trailer, Robert Rodriguez decided to shoot the film.

"Machete" tells the story, despite the redundancy, Machete (Danny Trejo ) a federal police in Mexico expelled from the body after a blackmail that has made him the boss Torrez (Steven Seagal .) No terms of taste, Machete will be forced to accept an offer from a doctor ( Jeff Fahey) who plans to assassinate a corrupt senator called McLaughlin (Robert De Niro ). Between two fires, and while escaping, Machete recurirá the help of light ( Michelle Rodriguez ), specializing in spicy remarks of Father ( Cheech Marin), their "holy" brother, and April ( Lindsay Lohan) a high society girl with a penchant for guns. While the plot unravels all be haunted by Sartana ( Jessica Alba), a sexy ICE agent.

Besides those mentioned above, are also among other Don Johnson and Tom Savini , makeup artist and film actor is usual for Rodriguez. We must also say that the film is co-directed by Ethan Maniquis , editor of some of the films of Mexican director. This last figure appears to obviate both publications as the publicity of the film itself.

The film premiered on September 3 in the U.S. and although it was hoped he could match or at least close to the figures of "mercenaries" at the moment we have to settle for a meager 20.9 million dollars the two weeks leading into the lineup. Of course, as its budget was 20 million (excluding advertising) because it can not be considered a failure, although it seems unlikely that second half. Among us is released on 1 October.

"bloody Promise," a little gem

Last August came to our video stores, without even go through the big screen, the film Promise bloody " ( Blood and Bone, 2009). Do not be fooled by its English title (more appropriate for a desktop telefilm Antena 3) because we are dealing with an action movie and good, despite not having a budget too high.

The film tells the story of Isaiah Bone (Michael Jai White ), an ex-convict who on leaving prison is dedicated to participating in illegal fights. His path crosses with that of James ( Eamonn Walker), a criminal with which it seems that Bone has an outstanding bill.

first thing that stand out are the fights, good choreography and no videoclipero assembly, which allows us to appreciate all the details. This is where Michael Jai White looks ( "Undisputed 2" , "Universal Soldier: The Return" ), an actor who, despite being a great martial artist is lavished little on gender, which is a penalty. What I do have to say is that the fights are mostly very short, since Bone defeat their opponents with overwhelming superiority.

What makes this film is above average, is not just the action scenes, if not the story and characters. In fact, there is a much higher percentage of dialog scenes of fighting, without this it boring or slow the film. We must also acknowledge that they have not got a love story with a shoehorn, although it is well surrounded by Bone Nona Gaye (daughter of singer Marvin Gaye ) or unknown Belegrin Michelle.

The villain of the film is well played by Eamonn Walker ( "Tears of the Sun" ), to avoid falling into the overacting. The British Julian Sands ("Warlock"), despite being the second in the credits, only appears in three scenes.

As a curiosity, mention that in the cast appear authentic wrestlers such as Bob Sapp huge that we have seen in "Elektra" , or in minor roles, the UFC fighters like Kimbo Slice or Gina Carano, future star of "Haywire" , the latest from Steven Soderbergh .

We should also mention that the director is Ben Ramsey who had previously only directed "By profession murderer" and had written the script absurdity of this thing called "Dragonball Evolution" . To his credit, here is to say he's captured so successful fights with enough time flat. This also helps that we are facing one of those films that any fan of action movies should miss.

best: almost everything

Worst: to put some glue the short duration of some fights

"From Paris With Love", action and humor in the French capital

Go ahead I was not expecting much from this film. Reading from her Internet site, whose name I will keep, seems to be an attempt to see a film. Nothing is further from the truth. Mind you, I'm not saying "From Paris With Love" ( From Paris with Love , 2010 ) is a masterpiece, but is neither meant to be. Simply it is another Luc Besson production and Corp Europe, which despite its many detractors, continues to show that in Europe (well, more in France) can be made effective action films and entertaining, and in turn can compete with that comes from Hollywood.

The first 20 minutes are the most sedate and boring film. We are introduced to James Reece (Jonathan Rhys Meyers ) who works for the American ambassador to France. Reece occasionally does small favors for the CIA such as changing a license plate or put a hidden microphone. But he wants is more action and that is what you get when you meet Charlie Wax, played by John Travolta that has a great time. Wax is a CIA agent with unorthodox methods and trigger-happy. Together they will carry out the mission entrusted to them.

We face a very funny buddy movie with a loose and histrionic John Travolta is the best of the tape (care homage to "Pulp Fiction "). Jonathan Rhys Meyers , like his character, ranging from less than on the tape: it starts boring, until little by little seems to have spread the enthusiasm that follows Travolta.

Its director Pierre Morel is responsible for "District 13" and Venganza , both produced by Besson . Morel proved once more that knows film more than effective action scenes, especially the multiple shootings and explosions. We certainly have one of the most promising directors in the genre. So far it seems that Hollywood has already knocked on his door and entrusted the remake of "Dune" .

addition, the film boasts is a total irreverence and political incorrectness. It's something to be welcomed, in these times we live in, as politically incorrect (too tell me), but certainly there are people who do not sit too well the fact that the villains are in the Muslim and Chinese. Others can simply enjoy a good action movie, full of gunfire and explosions, which is important.

best: Travolta and staged by Pierre Morel

Worst: takes a while to start

"Salt", a pleasant surprise

view a film like "Salt" (Id, 2010) there are two options when you see it. The first is to find fault the script, to show skeptical of what is being told and look deep into characters who do not. The second option, best is to get to her, getting caught up in its web of espionage and explore great entertainment. After all, we're only at a Hollywood summer blockbuster, which is what many seem to forget. The objectives of this action thriller, is entertaining the public and pass blank If a few million. The second thing is getting it, and as the first, depends on each one, but I did spend some more time and a half as entertaining.

The film begins with the CIA, Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie ) being accused of spying on North Korea to be released shortly after. Then the story moves to the present, where Salt questioned a Russian defector accuses her of being a Russian spy is going to kill the president of that country. These are the first fifteen minutes of film. From there begins the escape of the protagonist and shootings occur and persecution almost until the end of the film, with Angelina Jolie which is like a fish in water. After seeing the film, it seems impossible that the original protagonist of the film was Tom Cruise and they had to rewrite the role for her, when the actor left the project. Assisted in the distribution Jolie, two good actors fulfill their mission as is the case of Liev Schreiber ( "X-Men Origins: Wolverine ") and Chiwetel Ejiofor (" 2012 ").

The film is shot fairly classic by Australian Phillip Noyce all a specialist in the action genre thanks to films like "Patriot Games" or "Danger" . This classicism is to be welcomed especially in regard to the action scenes, because we can clearly see all what happens, something quite difficult today.

The script, which is signed by Kurt Wimmer ( "Equilibrium" ) is perhaps the weakest of all, not for its implausibility, but because the supposed going to be surprises along the plot are not so surprising. This is what makes this film is below the Jason Bourne trilogy , with which it has been compared to this film and its protagonist.

summary is a very entertaining film that will not go down in film history, but if you get us to spend time entertaining than seeing this as the picture is a lot.

best: Angelina Jolie action hero and the staging of Phillip Noyce.

Worst: The surprise twists of the script, which are easy to guess.
