Danny The Dog.....and other things

I am a big fan of Jet-Li. I try to make sure I never miss any of his movies.
He is a very good actor and no doubt about his amazing martial arts skills.
Just yesterday I saw his movie: Danny The Dog.
A very good movie, and a very underestimated one indeed. It so good that I think I won't mind watching it more than once. And to top it all, the movie has Morgan Freeman in it, doing what he does best. Still this movie is all about Jet-Li doing a role I have never seen him do in another movie. Yes, he did act in somewhat similar manner in a few scenes of his Chinese flick (Tai-Chi Master). But that was only a small part in a different way, this was more wholesome. Do watch it, if you don't mind little bit of fighting, as it has got soul.
Another weekend coming to an end, with two back to back posts. wow!
A quick mention: I am a big fan of rose flavored peppermint pellets called ColdStar. They are sold mostly at Mumbai railways station food stalls. They are manufactured by Volga Confectionary, Bombay 11. For those who still don't remember them, they are small pellets packed in an pen-drive sized packing. They are also available in the standard flavor(peppermint) or the one I like rose-flavored.
Thats all for now. Take care!

I don't like much of the kung-fu legendary movies, so not much of a Jet-Li movies, but this movie, it's different. It's got a soul, it's innocent, it's beautiful.
I liked the concept more, do not believe what others make you think you are. Believe in what you think you are.

I don't like rose falvoured peppermint.
