Week 4

This week, we have Bangkok Dangerous



Starring: Nicolas Cage, Shahkrit Yamnarm, Charlie Yeung




Synopsis:
The life of an anonymous assassin takes an unexpected turn when he travels to Thailand to complete a series of contract killings. Joe (Nicolas Cage), a remorseless hitman, is in Bangkok to execute four enemies of a ruthless crime boss named Surat. He hires Kong (Shahkrit Yamnarm), a street punk and pickpocket, to run errands for him with the intention of covering his tracks by killing him at the end of the assignment.




Strangely, Joe, the ultimate lone wolf, instead finds himself mentoring the young man while simultaneously being drawn into a tentative romance with a local shop girl. As he falls further under the sway of Bangkok’s intoxicating beauty, Joe begins to question his isolated existence and let down his guard …just as Surat decides it’s time to clean house.

It's been so long since we last had a good musical (Does Hairspray count?), so next week, in an attempt to bring back the musicals, we have one in store for you, coming to the cinemas soon.

Also, let's increase your vocabulary for the f-words. We can actually find some unusual but definitely useful f-words which have been neglected far too long in the literature books and the dictionaries.
