On I was gonna mention this, presumably would make a good double-header with the Ray Winstone one. But it's just so weird, the way he keeps doing those somersaults, it's like they filmed him doing that somersault once and they kept cutting in that same somersault footage again and again when he's fighting, regardless of whether it was appropriate to that part of the fight or if it would somehow offer him some kind of advantage. All the time I was wondering what on earth they were thinking... seriously, like how could anyone think that that improved the film? Although admittedly it did need improving.
The link you put to the trailer isn't working for me Version so I'm putting another here cos everyone should watch those somersaults at least once - actually once and only once - cos they have to be seen to be believed. But if the trailer Version put above works then don't watch this as well, no point in putting yourself through it twice.
That trailer is actually pretty deceptive cos it doesn't have nearly enough somersaults in it to truly reflect the amount in the film. Also, what the fuck were they thinking with that font, it looks like it was some kind of a consolation prize in a "design the writing for Beowulf competition" held in a primary school for blind children with learning difficulties.

Well who would? It's a no-brainer, really. Wish it was 2016 again so I could change my vote now.

No no, I voted Remain, obviously. I'm saying that the thought of a Frenchman telling me how to eat [/I]my[/I] pork chops is such a watertight argument for Leave that, for the sake of my own self-respect, I wish I'd voted that way.
