Street of Pain

This film is told without words and is a truly strange movie. Steve Carell, dressed a lot like Dick Tracy, is walking down the street and comes upon a group of three thugs who begin throwing dodge balls at him--reminding him of a childhood dodge ball trauma! However, the very straight-laced Carell shows that he's learned a lot over the years and is amazing with his skills--quickly knocking two of the thugs out--sending them running. However, with the final thug, the film begins to look like a John Woo film--with Matrix or Jet Li-like moves that are fun to watch. A good film with some interesting scenes, but probably not worth the entire 10 minutes--the story did seem a bit overly long considering how minuscule the plot was. Still, it's worth a look.
