    I really like the main baddy in this one. He’s like the Joker, and the hero is like Batman without his suit or weapons.

And in order to save that girl., the Gurkha regiment soldier fought alone with 40 criminals and killed & injured mny of them.

    It looks like The Raid meets Train to Busan. Probably gonna see it today. A lot of the Indian movies near me only have like a weeklong showing. I hope the good ones start to get a little more of a chance in the market at large, ya know?

    bishnu shrestha fought with 40 robbers in a train from ranchi to save a girl who was going to be raped in front of everyone in train, he was a Indian soilder from gurkha regiment, He killed three of them in the fight and injured eight others. The remaining robbers got scared of Bishnu's brave attack and fled the scene. this movie is based on real event with just movie plots.

    Sounds like what I wanted from Monkey Man. Not that Monkey Man was terrible but this sounds exactly what I thought it was going to be. Also James I’m not sure how big of a fan of you are of the zombie genre but if you haven’t seen Train to Busan I highly recommend you watch it is a little on the sappy side some people might think. But it’s probably the best Zombie movie I’ve seen in a long time.

    • @geekinwithJamesHancock
      @geekinwithJamesHancock  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +11

      Massive fan of Train to Busan. Definitely one of the best horror films of the last decade. I should have given it a shout out in the video.

      MM is more emotional & hefty with the serious topics and themes it tackles. Kill definitely scratches that itch for the action buffs looking for that fix.
      Both solid but pretty different flicks.

    I’m a hardcore mma fan in addition to being a cinephile…when those two totally different identities of mine cross wires, ie occasionally seeing you in that Morning Kombat shirt, saying words like Jiří Procházka,
    my brain short circuits and I wonder if the architect of the Matrix is fucking with me

    • @geekinwithJamesHancock
      @geekinwithJamesHancock  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I know the feeling. Years ago I considered doing some MMA commentary, but I finally decided just to let my interest in the sport remain a hobby instead of a job. That said, I love taking opportunities to give some much deserved shout outs to total badasses like Pereira and Procházka.

  • @fids54
    @fids54 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I am glad you made reference to Hitchcock's LADY VANISHES. For me, its absolutely the best of all train thriller films till date. Speaking of Kill, the speed, screenplay, and action impress. but they could have introduced more variety among the bad guys. Only one big guy stands out, all others are assembly line. the main bad guy is awesome though.

    • @KindlingEffect
      @KindlingEffect 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      _Is this movie more violent than "The Night Comes for Us" ?_
      No.
      It's violent by Indian standards, otherwise the amount of violence is about the same as a R-rated Hollywood movie.
      The fact that the violence isn't over-the-top (i.e. it's more grounded) contributes to making the action feel realistic and hence more brutal.
      _Which movie do you think is better?_
      I like them both. They are kind of different, though:
      The action in 'The Night Comes for Us' is of the 'smooth, skilled martial arts' variety.
      The action here is more akin to a street brawl between really angry and desparate people.

    An unmatched movie. This movie teaches us about human instinct, when a man or woman pushed to their extreme position. You may have missed a scene where two ladies killed a baddy with hockey stick and iron ball madly . The situation makes a person beast i.e. basic instinct.

    • @shanmukh747
      @shanmukh747 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      It's not a B-movie. B-movies are low quality movies (not just the budget). This one cannot be put in that category. I'm not telling this as a fan, so relax. And surprisingly this movie got lesser melodrama than I feared. Although I admit the dialogue exchange between the lead and his fiancée should've been better and they should've taken a li'l bit of extra runtime to setup the characters properly in Act 1 (before everyone got into the train) to deliver that emotional punch at the intermission. The worst is the trailer that gave too much away. All in all, a quality entertainment it is.
