The bad things first. Because that's how I want it to be. The music is occasionally a bit loud (or the dub is too soft), creating a couple of moments where it's really hard to make out what people are saying. But as you said:
<Esh> it's the dub, it's too quiet in places. i tried to sort it out but i only had two days after filming to both edit the film together and put the dub on before college closed so
The second bad thing is that there are no birds. What is John Woo without birds. Or a church? Tssk tssk.
The rest however. Brilliant. This is bloody brilliant. From the very beginning with the unconvincing dub you had me hooked. I didn't even consider waiting to watch the rest later as I often tend to do and never going back. "And it was good food", the delivery is great. Not to mention the laugh. All those moments of repressed anger in the dub. Oh... How it lifts the film.
The fighting sequences are also wonderful. They remind me a bit of that opening scene in one of the Spaced episodes. But I guess the inspiration is the same for both. I also think it's a very clever way of getting around the whole gun thing. And the slow motion. And the freeze-frames "Loyal to the end" had me going "fuck yes".
It doesn't get a whole lot better than this. There's also the fact that it doesn't seem to laugh AT John Woo, but instead it's really a wonderful homage filled with respect despite being hilarious.
This might be a five out of five if I handed out points for these kinds of things. And you know what? If I hadn't started with the bad and forgotten about it by the time I wrote "This might be a five out of five" it wouldn't have been. There's the good side of beginning with the bad.
