Mods: I know this needs to be in the movie talkbalk thread, but I argue that because this film wasn't a box office success and wasn't too big when it was first released it deserves it's own thread.
Oh god. I hadn't heard of this movie untill this summer, when 10 friends recommended highly that I see it. I bought it on recommedation.
Holy shit.
This movie is amazing. If you haven't see it, do so.
Storyline: In the future, people live in a city that has no crime or war. This accomplished this by using a mass sedative that suppresss human emotions. To enforce this law a new type of police officer, called the Grammaton Cleric, is invented. To empower this new officer, a new martial art is created. By studying thousands of action movies and gun fights, the masters of this new art have determined the mathematical averages for bullet locations and speed. This name of this incredible new form? Gun-kata. What does that mean to you the movie goer? Kung-fu mixed with automatic pistols. ^_^
The movie has a great story (while one COULD argue it's not the most original) and AMAZING action. GO BUY IT NOW NOW NOW!

Mr. Bo Speaks the truth.
See this movie at all costs.
It died a slow suffocating unjust studio death over the past two years.
Low budget, high Awesome.

| The movie is very good. Could've been better, with a bigger budget, and marketing the likes of The Matrix. |

I remember seeing trailers for this, and it looked impressive. But I dont know what happened to it after that; I dont even remember it being in the theaters. I'll try to find it for a rent.

It reminded me alot of Orwels 1984. Except without the people's faces being sliced off in sword fights.
