Foot Fist Way

#96.The Foot Fist Way

Director/Writer
: Jody Hill
Producers
: Jennifer Chikes, Erin Gates, Robbie Hill and Hill
Distributor: Paramount Vantage

The Gist: Written by Jody Hill, this is about self-control, perseverance, integrity, indomitable spirit – that’s what it’s supposed to be all about at the Concord Tae Kwon Do Studio, where boys are turned into black-belts and suburbanites are chiseled into great warriors, all under the proud tutelage of proud sensei Fred Simmons. That is, until Fred discovers his wife has been unfaithful and instantly descends into a blubbering mess.

Fact: David Gordon Green discovered main actor Danny McBride, in 2008 we'll see him in three comedies Drillbit Taylor, Pineapple Express (DGG) and Tropic Thunder.  

See It: Low budget comedy played at Sundance. Bruce Lee would have been proud!

Release Date/Status?: Paramount Vantage releases the film on April 11th.

Review: The Kid With a Bike

Review: The Kid With a Bike

"Despite the one-dimensionality of its anti-patriarchal theme (appeasing the knee-jerk expectations of European film fest audiences), the Dardennes avoid cheapening the story with ideological smugness, achieving an emotional resonance without easy sentimentality."

Review: Wrong

"Encoded in the outlandish humor that pervades the film are bits of commentary on everyday life. The most overt is Dupieux's urging to appreciate the relationships around you, which is manifested in the dog kidnapping, but also in a subplot in which a woman from the pizzeria moves between men without even realizing they have changed. Another cultural critique is found in the rainy office, an instantly recognizable visual metaphor for how dreary a 9 to 5 job can be."
