One I don't think I had my my list earlier was "The Way of the Gun", maybe not as good as "The Usual Suspects" (same writer) but definitely underrated.

Man, it is historically fairly accurate and well acted. What more could you ask?bubbacatfish said:I saw The Warlord years ago on TV & remember liking it. I wouldn't mind seeing it again, don't know if I'd buy it though.

You really think Jackie Chan fights like that in real life? As in jumping everywhere, using chairs and all?
Even Bruce Lee in real life fought slightly differently than in his movies.
Ong Bak is great 'cos you know he doesn't use any wires.
Oh Yeah I've seen this classic many times........and the music score is among the best all time...of course Ennio Morricone...who did so many great music scores on Spaghetti Westerns!Nakano 2 said:Many of us here have no doubt seen the popular spaghetti westerns from the master Sergio Leone. The trilogy includes "A Fist Full of Dollars", "For a Few Dollars More" and "The Good, the Bad and The Ugly". All starred by the man himself, Clint Eastwood. But has many of us seen the "other" masterpiece- "Once Upon A Time In The West"? A near 3 hour classic with both humor and violence using sounds in the background to great effect. Starring Henry Fonda, Charles Bronson, Jason Robards and Claudia Cardinale. A movie worth seeing even if you aren' t quite the western buff. :thumbup:
