Three Movies

Saturday · 26 Apr 03 · 01:39 AM IST | Posted by Karthik | Category: Movies

I watched three movies today, the first one being Cold Harvest in the afternoon on AXN.  Now this is a futuristic action-kickboxing movie, done in a western style!  Never thought I'd see such a strange genre combination but here it is.  Starring Gary Daniels and Bryan Genesse, I found this to be a pretty silly movie with action scenes (using wire stunts) that looked suspiciously like I'd already seen them before.  To top it all off I have absolutely no idea what the title was supposed to mean.

The second one I watched was Project A, on STAR Movies.  Now this is a movie I have seen several times (I know a lot of the dialogue in the dubbed version by heart, even the way it's pronounced in the dubbing) - and it is my favourite Jackie Chan movie.  Thoroughly entertaining!

The next movie on STAR Movies today was The Hurricane, a fine film with Denzel Washington as Rubin "Hurricane" Carter - a boxer who was wrongly convicted for murder and spent 30 years in prison.  It is based on a true story (though some events have been fictionalised), and it was a nicely made drama, with excellent acting from Denzel Washington.

The last few days I did a little work on my Doom maps, most notably I started a new E4M1 for The Ninth Gate, since my existing one is very old and not good.  I've already finished a lot of the level!  And I'm next waiting for a review of my Dark Fate to be done in Doomworld's /newstuff Chronicles this Sunday.

Some more (non-Doom) things that happened: I went to TIME on Wednesday to meet Mr. A. R. K. S. Srinivas, and thank him personally for all the training that the institute has given me.  I also got my voter's identity card the next day.  And today, I also learnt to make a nice cheese-pepper-chilli sandwich filling thanks to my mother!
