- No no no. "Once Upon A Time In china" has no Brandon Lee.
- The movie you are thinking of is "Showdown In Little Tokyo", and I enjoyed
- that one a lot. I thought it came off like a souped up episode of
- Starsky and Hutch, and I liked it a lot. I didn't think the acting was
- all that bad. There is very little real acting going on in movies today,
- and this is no worse than most big studio spew.
-
- And Dolph is the king of cheesy action flicks. Van Damme can go to hell.
- "universal Soldier" only proved that Dolph might not be a great actor,
- but he is still yards ahead of Van Damme. Seagal is in a category by
- himself, it seems. <Bad, egocentric, action stars with too much time on
- their hands.>
- At least Dolph isn't going to make us sit through "sensitive love stories"
- to show us he really CAN'T ACT, like Van Damme is threatening to do!
