RabidChihuahua posted a Quick Tip about Out for Justice.
January 20

FM_ALEX posted a Quick Tip about Shaolin (film).
December 13, 2012
In the end I would say that this film is an epic but falls just a little short of classic status in my opinion. But who knows time may be a good thing for this film as it is already good. I may change … more
