The Easie Precis: John Carpenter directing Kurt Russel, Kim Cattrall with ancient Chinese magic - but set in Chinatown. Just about the most rad movie ever.
Compatible Movies: Nothing even comes close
The "for what it's trying to be" score: 97%
Watch the Trailer? Sure! Watch it here. It's a good taste of what it's about. Just don't take it seriously.
A Little More Detail...
I'm not entirely sure if this entire movie is a joke or not. It's certainly light-hearted... well, it doesn't matter because this movie is more radical than Milhouse.
You will probably watch this movie and then immediately dismiss my abilities as a movie critic. However, this movie is almost exactly what it is trying to be. It is ridiculous and it is brilliant.
What's it About?
Regular guy just trying to do his job gets sucked into an ancient world of Chinese magic. There's the big bad guy who kidnaps young women, etc.
Best Viewing Company: Small group of friends. Should also be fine with family
