Not only a good Martial Arts movie but a great movie in general.
It takes its time, it displays a great care for the subject and it has a very likeable main character. Highly recommended.

- N+, a pure plattformer, nothing but jumping and getting killed. Very short and fulfilling levels. Perfect for the DS. To get an idea, here is the flash version!
SPIDERMAN 2, good mechanics, good use of the "GTA" open world style, had fun just swinging through New York. Did not finish the end fight though BECAUSE IT SUCKED!
- PSYCHONAUTS, good voice acting, has a nice weirdness and fun level design. Stoped playing during a boss fight because of pretty much the same reasons as with Spiderman 2. -> dieing because of bad camera, no fun
- did not like the new HULK movie (mostly because the trailer already had managed to show EVERYTHING! that was in it) - saw "Bigger, Stronger, Faster" and was impressed by it (a documentary about steroids. Well made and highly entertaining) - saw "No end in sight", also well made and often times painful to watch. - read "Pattern recognition" by William Gibson and liked the mood. - currently re-reading "Kafka on the shore" by Haruki Murakami. Liking even more the second time.
This could be a WIP but i dont really know how to bring it further at this point. Could be "COLORING TIME!" Or it may be in need of more accents in his "backside". Tomorrow may bring an answer.
I´m just back from the theater and wanted to write some words. But then i saw this review from CHUD and it basically says everything i would have written but with good spelling and grammar.
(...) "I don't think that film transcends that genre as much as it seeks to not be in it; Nolan's made a crime movie that has a guy in a stupid suit smack in the middle of it. Of course that's the beauty of superhero stories, much like westerns or science fiction stories - you can meld them with other genres. A cowboy can investigate a murder just as two people can fall in love on a space ship. There's an even more condescending notion that The Dark Knight takes itself more seriously than other superhero movies - as if this is an inherently good thing." (...) LINK
