Hamlet 2
I went into this movie with high expectations, based on not a whole lot really, and came out a little disappointed. Too much time was spent on the set up and creation of the play, and the actual staging of Hamlet 2 was really short. I think it would have been much better to have the bulk of the film be the Hamlet 2 performance, and just bookend it with a short set up and conclusion. Steve Coogan was hilarious, but most of the supporting cast were kinda boring and forgettable. Worth a look, but I probably won't be watching it again anytime soon.
Bangkok Dangerous
The basic plot of this movie, ruthless assassin has a change of heart, has been done plenty of times before, so pretty much the main reason, for me at least, to watch this movie is for the action sequences. Unfortunately, Bangkok Dangerous falls pretty short in that department. For one, there aren't that many action sequences to begin with. In a movie about a hitman I expect the bullets, or blades, or whatever, to be flying frequently. My second complaint is that the quality of the action that is in the movie varies greatly. Some scenes are awesome and fun to watch, while others seem very poorly planned and executed(almost a pun.) I wouldn't recommend this one, also, Nic Cage's kinda long, greasy hair is gross. Cut that shit.
