FACE/OFF: Stupid fun, an absurd premise, and Hong Kong style - Four Play Ep. 13
Episode 1
Published 2 years, 11 months ago
Description
John Woo's 1997 film Face/Off kicks off a fierce debate among our hosts about whether or not the film succeeds in a fun, yet stupid, premise or if it's too ridiculous to be considered good. The film's Hong Kong style seems out-of-place in a Hollywood movie, but can a viewer buy into its heightened style and find enjoyment. Thorin, Richard, and Monte fiercely debate if watching Face/Off is a pleasurable experience considering the total lack of subtlety as well as the memorable nature of the premise.
