that chinese broad doing the striptease was thicky thick, she aint miss nary a rice cake
Bruce lee steered the martial arts action genre from the dancey balletic style of wuxia into the more gritty street fighting style we are all accustomed to today with the big boss. The Chinese connection or fist fury kind of pattened that in what is arguably his most iconic movie. It's been remade multiple times and spawned various spin offs both good and bad (the remake with donnie yen being bad and the sequel with bruce li being surprisingly very good) Some of the action still holds up aside from a few hokey bits here and there (him spinning two dummies around in the dojo) The slow bits can be killer and they try to infuse comedy at weird times during the movie, which I chalk up to lo wei who butted heads with Bruce many times during the making of the movie until they eventually had a falling out. Shytty director aside, bruce still Carrie's the film on his charisma alone.

I liked this one. I'm a sucker for uplifting kids in movies.
This sums up most of my experience with Fellini, lol.
Well made and decent enough once you get used to the episodic format, but I'm not seeing what everyone particularly "loves" about this film.
Felt like it was repeating itself at times, and it certainly didn't need to be nearly 3 hours.
I watched Purple Rain & Ferris Beuller's Day Off in the theaters.
But yeah, can't believe any cinephile doesn't jump at these opportunities. If I lived in LA I'd be at a rep screening more than new releases probably lol.
Cinemark/Fathom Events are a godsend.

it's obvious and it has merits of being a Horror without being labelled a Horror.
It's like, I get it. The movie is called "The Sweet Life" but Rome's elite are actually miserable and empty people but godamn...how many dinner parties is Marcello going to be a part of before we move on?
