One Minute too Long: Bangkok Dangerous: Do You Want To See the Hits or the Man?

If Scorcese was able to take "Infernal Affairs", and make it the best picture of 2006, what prevents a Coppola produced retooling of "Bangkok Dangerous" from being worthwhile. Sure, BD is using the original directors, the Pang Brothers, who have proven that Japanese horror isn't the only Asian cinema that won't work in the States (these Chinese minds were behind "The Eye"), but this film can certainly overcome this because we have an R-Rated Nicolas Cage.

I'm not expecting "Hard-boiled", I'll settle for "Shoot 'Em Up" in Southeast Asia. The DVD menus seem to promise that at the very least. We have a versatile A-Lister and the original directors, so cultural differences shouldn't bog this flick down. Perhaps the stars have aligned for what can only be escapism with "Bangkok Dangerous".

Read the rest of this blog other stories at Main Event of the Dead.com and determine if this thought process can be translated into a B-movie comedy about pro-wrestling zombies.
