The One

I watched the MATRIX, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith and Kung fu Hustle last weekend and guess what was common in all the films.. 2 words .. 2 words... "The one ". In Matrix it was Keanu Reeves as Neo In LOR it was Frodo (the ring bearer) In Harry Potter: of course it was Harry Star wars: Obi wan screaming at Anakin Skywalker" You were the chosen one! It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them. It was you who would bring balance to the force, not leave it in darkness! " Kung Fu Hustle: Stephen Chow is "the One “. Revenge of Sith is awesome, if and only if you have followed Star wars 1,2,4,5 and 6.Things to watch out for apart from the amazing graphics, the Vrrrooom sounds, yeah the colorful tubelights...the fight between Obi Wan and the devious four-armed Count Grievous. The count has 4 light sabers, yes 4, and all in different colors (No its not a popins AD).You have to check out Darth Vader's breathing.. Awesome. Alas the Saga comes to an end. Saturday Night I watched "Kung Fu Hustle", it was around 11 pm and the film was in Chinese with English subtitles. At 11:15, my mom rushes into the hall and is surprised to see me laughing my head off .
The last time I laughed so much was in the year 1983 ...We, my bro, sis and cousins were given Cholera shots and they pained like hell. We were watching " The God's must be Crazy " and every time we laughed we would punch each other's arms. The pain and laughter aaaah.. I nominate "Kung Fu Hustle" the film of the year. Not only is "Kung Fu Hustle" funny, it is action packed, moves like a bullet train and, most surprisingly, is beautifully shot and edited. Stephen Chow (he’s the hero and director) looks more like Bruce Lee. The kung-fu battles in this film are quite simply some of the most inventive and exhilarating that you will ever see, period, with a capital Pee.This is one of the films that it is almost impossible to watch without smiling through the entire thing. Oh and it has a heroine, she's hmm hmm and the best part is she never speaks (Hats off to the script writer). Smiles but nope not a single word.... I loved it :)
