Drunken Master 2
(1994)
directed by Chia-Liang Liu, Jackie Chan!
I chose this movie because in my opinion Jackie Chan is one of the most enjoyable and most respected asian crime fighting actors that we have today. I really enjoyed how the camera just completely attracted Jackie Chans way of movement especially during important and entertainng fight scenes. the camera captured the other peoples emotions and reactions during the fight scenes. it represent pain and amazement and almost disappointment. I also noticed that during fight scenes the camera was either placed high or low to get the effect of the whole thing. for instense during one scene were Jackie Chan is fightin this guy in some sort of a warehouse Jackie has hit him at least 3 times and the camera is set low looking upwards at them to get the effect of the hits and get the expression of the hits from the guy that he in than fighting.

Another really awesome thing that i discovered by watching this movie is that during the fight scenes the amount of hits seem counted and timed and completely layed out almost with the music. Every hit or shot that was made during the movie was set at a louder sound to get the full power and passion behind every hit that had been performed. I counted some of the hits and the hits were almost sets in set of 3 or 4. 3 was the number that i got most often

The music that is played during the movie is your ancient chinese music very smooth and interesting to listen to. To me its interestng to listen to because i feel like it tells a story and it represents the right mood no matter what pace its going on. even during like a normal scene the music doesnt exaclty need to speed up or slow down and during the fight scenes it seems like it doesnt need to do change a thing. For that i seriously admire the music. The music in this movie made me pay attention more to certain aspects of the movie. Even when Jackie Chan is drunk all the time it still fits Jackie chan just still being a drunk and beating the crap out of everyone without any problems or anything just makes it one of the best type of action films that you could watch in my opinion. I mean come on now what guy do you know who is completely drunk and still have the technique and endurance to beat the mess out of everyone.

I couldnt just chose one certain thing for this movie because there wasnt exactly just one thing that i liked/ enjoyed. But i give serious thumbs up for this movie@!
