Action!

Everytime I see a great film, I am truly humbled by this art form, which despite all its pretentious pop-schmaltz, has this great power to play out real life, often our own, before our eyes with the brute force of reality.
And then there are action films, mafia movies and the gambling ones. My favourites. I recently saw the most chilling fight scene ever. It was so raw even a blood and gore veteran like me had goose bumps. The movie is Eastern Promises, starring Vigo Mortensen. You will think twice about messing with Russians after watching it.
