BuyBust - Drunk Monk - 11-25-2018 Fresh ultravi from the Philippines. A PDEA team get lured into a labyrinthian shantytown into a drug kingpin's trap and have to fight their way out. After a few minutes of set up, the rest is just fight scenes. The poor folk living in the shantytown attack them in droves, more like a zombie horde. Would a mob of people armed with clubs, shivs, molotovs and the occasional firearm go up against full-auto armed trained officers? Sure, why not? Most of this is shot in the dark, in the rain, with weird neon light. It's hard to see the choreography, but it's a lot of shanking. Repeated shanking. Shank fest. There's some good stuff - not crisp but muddy, rolling in mud and wet. Gritty and brutal. There's an extraordinary single-shot sequence towards the end. I wouldn't mind seeing lead Anne Curtis, in another actioner. RE: BuyBust - Dr. Ivor Yeti - 11-25-2018 But how is she compared to Hammer Girl? RE: BuyBust - Drunk Monk - 11-25-2018 No comparison. Estelle would crack Anne’s noggin before she could say ‘shank’ Anne is one of those heroines that has the ubervillian in her sights and then hesitated to chat. But she did deliver that continuos shot scene, so I give her cred. |
