Man With The Iron Fists
Rza writes/stars/directs (altho apparently Eli Roth did most of the directing) an homage to old shaw brothers kung-fu flicks.
It certainly seems like it is, with bad acting, oddly told plot, ridiculous names (Golden, Silver, and Bronze Lion for example), and of course, fighting.
The precious stuff, I dunno whether it was intentional or not. So take it with a grain of salt. The fighting however, it seems like they have some good choreography, but it does suffer from close camera syndrome. It's not too bad, but it's irritating.
And damn has Russell Crowe gotten fat :/

Interesting movie about an insanely nice guy, like the nicest guy you've ever known, who ends up killing the most hated woman in town. The townsfolk however, don't want to convict him because he's such a nice guy.
Based on a true story which is apparently fairly accurate, altho it doesn't really tell the womans side. All the cut away shots to talking with the townsfolk, are the actual people who were living there when it happened.
Also, best performance of Jack Blacks career.
