I love a good movie, and I especially love festival movies. Hollywood trash is ok if you just want to vegetate in front of the telly, but you can’t beat a good story.
Watched The Road Home by Yimou Zhang the other day. It stars Ziyi Zhang who is that cute Chinese girlie that kicks butt after complaing the food is too salty in that visa ad. Yimou Zhang has made some excellent movies like Raise the Red Lantern which I think is one of his beast and Not One Less which I enjoyed so much I brought the DVD.
Video Ezy in Ponsonby has these on DVD. In fact they have a really large collection of rare movies on DVD. So does Videon on Dominion Rd.
One Hollywood movie that I did enjoy recently was Resident Evil staring Milla Jovovich. If you have played the game on Playstation like I have you will appreciate it even more.
