When Did Chow Yun Fat stop being a badass?
| Posed to me by my friend Andrew, when was it that Chow Yun-Fat stopped being a bad-ass? |  |
As a man so steeped in baddassery, one would think that there would be no way for Chow Yun-Fat to ever not be a bad ass, but after his lackluster performance as Captain Sao Feng in Pirates of the Caribbean 3 – At World’s End, and a flat performance in Dragonball Evolution, one is left but to wonder where is Brother Mark from A Better Tomorrow 2 where Chow Yun-Fat makes you forget the laughable plot device that he is infact the twin brother of his character from A Better Tomorrow. Or how he pulls off the extreme revenge mindfuck in God of Gamblers 2, and no need to describe Hard Boiled and The Killer.
Chow Yun-Fat lost his Mojo at the hands of the “I don’t know what” destroying Jodie Foster in Anna and the King.
His repertoire after “coming overseas” included The Corruptor and The Replacement Killers… But after…meh.
So thanks Jodie, for making Chow Yun-Fat not be a badass anymore.
