The Wrestler

So supposedly the new Mickey Rourke film "The Wrestler" is going to be his comeback vehicle. It's been getting rave reviews and a lot of hype, so we're excited to see how he does in this film. The plot is about an aging WWF wrestler long past prime and looking to find the lost limelight. Os something like that. With his overly tanned skin, bleached blond locks and buffed-out old man body he certainly looks the part. Hmmm….a story about an over-the-hill entertainer who suffers innumerous humiliations as he tries to struggle back to the top. Sounds like any other film out right now? That's right! JVCD..Jean Claude Van Damme's new "comeback vehicle" is out and kicking ass at theaters now. Although I admit, it'll be a little hard for ol'
Jean-Claude's movie to compete with any movie by the critic darling Darren Aronofsky. Whether "The Wrestler" turns out to be a great film or a burning pile of camel dung, Mickey Rourke's gotten a great amount of exposure and it's nice to see someone who's been screwed over by Hollywood get a break once in a while…

Here's an New York Times interview with Mickey Rourke, where he aggrandizes and over-embellishes pretty much through the whole thing

What would Hollywood do without Asian Movies?

In yet another attempt from Hollywood to mooch off the success of a Asian film, Steven Spielberg and Will Smith are working to produce an American version of the Korean film "Old Boy". This critically acclaimed 2003 Korean movie is based on a Japanese comic book. In the story, the hero (Dae-Su) gets kidnapped and is locked in a hotel room for 15 years without explanation. Suddenly, one day he's released and given money, a cell phone and clothes and is set on a path to discover who destroyed his life so he can take revenge. His own quest for vengeance becomes tied in with romance when he falls for an attractive sushi chef. The Korean version of the movie won the Grand Prix prize at Cannes in 2004. What I don't understand is why can't American directors look at these films as inspiration to become more adventurous and experimental with something of their own creation, instead of going "Oh-hey, cool here something else I can rip off!"
