defending his people with wushu, Ip escapes the wrath of the
Japanese by fleeing to Foshan. Failing to find peace even in his own
homeland, Ip relocates his family to Hong Kong in 1949. Once there,
Ip begins teaching Wing Chun to a group of pupils that includes Wong
Leung (Huang Xiao Ming), who soon clashes with Cheng Wei Ki (Dennis
To). Embarrassed at having been beaten so badly by Wong in a fight,
Cheng kidnaps his rival and takes him to a fish market owned by
Master Hung (Sammo Hung). Blaming Ip for the damage done by Wong,
Master Hung demands that the other teacher defeat practitioners of
all wushu varieties in the time it takes to burn a single joss
stick. Incredibly, Ip meets the challenge, impressing Master Hung,
who then gives him permission to open his own wushu school. When
Master Hung gives Ip a ticket to the King of Boxing Competition, a
friendship is forged between the two former rivals. After a
competitor nicknamed Twister is named the winner, he beats Cheng and
friends for celebrating with wushu, and claims he can defeat Master
Hung with three simple blows. Though Master Hung maintains the upper
hand throughout most of the fight, Twister eventually lands a punch
that knocks his superior down. In the wake of the fight, tensions
between the locals and Westerners begin heating up, and the local
superintendent responds by announcing a kung fu competition. When Ip
defeats all challengers, including Twister, Wing Chun gains
popularity throughout Hong Kong, and the highly respected master
begins teaching a young disciple named Bruce Lee, who will bring the
art of Chinese wushu to Westerners before dying tragically at the
tender age of 32.

Format: WIDESCREEN
Rated: R
Genre: COMEDY
The improbable but true story of a spectacularly charismatic

the law and on the lam, brilliantly escaping from the Texas prison

severe car accident that leads him to the ultimate epiphany: he's
gay and he's going to live life to the fullest - even if he has to
break the law to do it. Taking on an extravagant lifestyle, Steven
turns to cons and fraud to make ends meet and is eventually sent to
the State Penitentiary where he meets the love of his life, a
sensitive, soft-spoken man named Phillip Morris (Ewan McGregor). His

LITTLE FOCKERS (2010)

BEN
STILLER
ROBERT DENIRO
OWEN WILSON
Minutes: 98
Format: WIDESCREEN
Rated: PG-13
Genre: COMEDY
Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro return as the comic duo of a hapless,
eager-to-please son-in-law and an overbearing father-in-law in Little
Fockers. Despite the title, there's not much of the kids in this
sequel; like Meet the
Parents and Meet
the Fockers, Little
Fockers is all about
the tension-fraught relationship between crusty ex-CIA agent Jack
Byrnes (De Niro) and male nurse Greg Focker (Stiller). This time,
Jack has decided that Greg just might have what it takes to replace
him as the protector and guide to the family, if he can provide for
and properly educate the children. From there it's a series of
scenes in which Greg tries to meet Jack's expectations and fails
spectacularly, this time complicated by the presence of sexy
pharmaceuticals rep Andi (Jessica Alba), who hires Greg to represent
an erectile dysfunction drug and gives him a bag of samples… which
leads pretty much where you think it might lead. This time around,
the jokes are broader (the movie starts with projectile vomiting and
ends with a fistfight in a bouncy castle) and the plot is even less
important, but the cast (including Dustin Hoffman, Barbra Streisand,
Owen Wilson, and Teri Polo) executes everything with professional
skill. Fans of the previous movies will enjoy this latest
installment.

TRON: ORIGINAL CLASSIC
(1982)

JEFF
BRIDGES
BRUCE BOXLEITNER
DAVID WARNER
Minutes: 96
Format: WIDESCREEN
Rated: PG
Genre: ADVENTURE
The surprising truth about Disney's 1982 computer-game fantasy is
that it's still visually impressive (though technologically quaint
by later high-definition standards) and a lot of fun. It's about a
computer wizard named Flynn (Jeff Bridges) who is digitally broken
down into a data stream by a villainous software pirate (David
Warner) and reconstituted into the internal, 3-D graphical world of
computers. It is there, in the blazingly colorful, geometrically
intense landscapes of cyberspace, that Flynn joins forces with Tron
(Bruce Boxleitner) to outmaneuver the Master Control program that
holds them captive in the equivalent of a gigantic, infinitely
challenging computer game. Disney's wizards used a variety of
cinematic techniques and early-'80s state-of-the-art
computer-generated graphics to accomplish their dynamic visual
goals, and the result was a milestone in cyberentertainment,
catering to technogeeks while providing a dazzling adventure for
hackers and nonhackers alike. Appearing just in time to celebrate
the nascent cyberpunk movement in science fiction, Tron received
a decidedly mixed reaction when originally released, but has since
become a high-tech favorite and a landmark in special effects, with
a loyal following of fans. DVD is a perfect format for the movie's
neon-glow color scheme, and the musical score by synthesizer pioneer
Wendy Carlos is faithfully preserved on the digitally remastered
soundtrack.
