Is there anyone cooler than the landlady?


Especially when she does her Bruce Lee move (cracks knuckles) in the car and runs Brother Sum out of town? :-)



Sedagive?!!!

She's a real martial artist. She's still kicking ass.

there's thousands of people cooler, i felt like she didn't do enough to be remembered for her role in this film.

reply

I beg to differ. I thought she was tremendously awesome, too!

she was great. no doubt about it. they all were. her lion roar into the bell amplifier should be well-remembered. this movie doesn't get the love it deserves on U.S. cable stations.

I have seen maybe 10,000 movies in my 70 years of movie-watching, and she is certainly one of the more distinctive and memorable characters.

Great movie. I liked the first half better before it degenerated into extreme fantasy and the supernatural. The realistic shots of town life were beautifully filmed. I would like to see a naturalistic film by this director without CGI or fantasy elements. I think he has one in him.

If you mean the lady with the cigarette, she was damn cool & sexy.

I loved her. Laughed so hard when she catches that axe thrown at her.

reply

she would have defeated the beast with the amplified lion's roar had she not backed down.

reply

Haha I cracked up when she did that! My friends didn't get the reference to Bruce Lee though, but it's ok. :)

My favorite scene is when the fat guy tried to throw the knife at her, and threw the handle by accident, then it hits her on the face and she freaks.

reply

That was funny! I loved her pose when she's chasing Sing (Stephen Chow) Bugs Bunny/Roadrunner style.

She is the Solid Snake of kung fu movies. That's how cool she is.

She had a small role in the James Bond Film "Man with the Golden Gun". She played one of the school girls that came to Bond's rescue at the karate dojo.

reply

I love her too. She is such an idol!

I went to see the movie twice in the theatres, with two different sets of friends. The first time, my friends and I all laughed at the Bruce Lee tribute. The second time, I was with two girls, and THEY LOVED HER. That Lion's Roar was such a surprise the first time it happened. Pretty bad*ss.

But one thing always puzzled me: at the end of the Bugs Bunny/Roadrunner chase, when we see her fly off screen and hear her body THUD into the billboard, we see a bunch of things flying off her body. One of them being her bra. HOW THE HELL DID HER BRA COME OFF???

reply

Better question: How the hell did a dude get knocked 3-4 football fields up in the air, dived back down head first and not die? It's a movie man. Enjoy it!

reply

Best part was when she smacked the kid up the side of the head when he was just standing there begging for water.

Best scene is the amplified Lions Roar.

I love that lady ... and her husband ... and the Matrix effects they use throughout the movie ... this movie is really good and very hilarious.
