I got a trailer for this with Saw X. Looks like a fun revenge thriller.

Perfect holiday movie, really.

Same, got it with my showing, too. Supposedly this movie will have ZERO dialogue in it. Kind of a ballsey move on Woo's part.

 

[OrbOfConfusion]

No dialogue, huh? I like the sound of a good old Show, not Tell every once in awhile.

 

[Gothamsknight]

This looks fantastic. Between this, and violent night, it looks like action Christmas films will become more frequent. I'm here for it!

Wait, NO ONE talks in this movie? I figured the protagonist didn’t because is voice box gets mangled but the other characters don’t talk either? Wow that’s going up be weird. Like a modern, street-level version of an old Aeon Flux short.

I hope this starts a US comeback for John Woo.

Could be a gimmick that gets old after a while, or it could make things a lot more fun. Woo has always been a great visual storyteller.

I saw the trailer last night, looks like a potential return to classic form for Woo, one of the all time great action directors. The gimmick of having no dialogue might turn this into a cult classic at least.

 

[Deck Rickard]

If this is a hit, then the next thing I want to see is an old school, black and white silent movie (a la The Artist), only with gory violence like this.

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

Definitely sounds intriguing

I watched the Trailer for this last night. Man, I'm actually excited for this. It looks like a dumb and fun 90's style action film and I miss those kinds of fun films.

I got a mix of Die Hard and Mission Imposible II Vibes from the trailer (MI2 of course due to John Woo).

I'll definitely be seeing this one.
