"Kiss of the Dragon": Amazing what a needle can do!

I am not doing anything now, for all my cases are solved and there is no case on queue that needs any action. So I’ll just write something about the movie I watched last night.

I was able to connect my small laptop to my plasma TV, and believe me it was far more exciting now to watch all the downloaded videos I got from the net. Considering my subscription does not include any international cable channel, my only hope was to be patient enough to download videos from torrent websites, even if it always took like forever before I could completely get hold of them.

OK, back to the movie I watched last night… I tried to look for something unfamiliar and decided to check out KISS OF THE DRAGON starring Jet Li. It was shot mainly in Paris and thank God it was in English! Even the Chinese characters in the movie didn't speak in Mandarin, so that really made it less exhausting to understand. Hahahahaha. I think it’s the only movie I had seen Jet Li acting so cute even if it’s action film, and even if I found THE FORBIDDEN KINGDOM funnier because he was with Jacky Chan. I think it’s one of the old movies stored in my disk I dared not to touch yet because it was unpopular, I never expected I would love it. Actually, I loved and “liked” it at the same time…

The movie had no boring scene, could not blink for a second, just trying not to miss any of the fight scenes and Jet Li’s inexpressive face. His slight gesture really affected the mood of each scene because we wouldn’t really often see him doing drama in any of his many films. In the movie, his calm moves when fighting really stressed his character as a pro and the best among the league of reinforcers of his generation. What more could I say than “Two thumbs up!”.

I long waited for the scene that would explain to me why it was titled KISS OF THE DRAGON. Guess why? I think you should have a little knowledge on acupuncture to be able to guess it without seeing the entire movie.

At this point, I am looking forward to seeing another Jet Li movie. Just the English version please!!!
