...give you a break on the talent part if you're willing to videotape yourself getting shot with a Taser. Case in point: prankster JOHNNY KNOXVILLE, of Jackass infamy, has no fewer than five movies in the works, and he just scored the lead in the upcoming Farrelly brothers' flick The Ringer, about a guy who pretends to be retarded so he can enter the Special Olympics. If that doesn't make you want to give up on Western culture, consider ASHTON KUTCHER, host of the MTV prank show Punk'd and Knoxville's heir aberrant. Not only is Kutcher...
...Heroic Duo's plot, however, is as creaky as any martial artsploitation flick. Leon Lai makes his action-hero debut here, playing a police hypnotist drafted to foil evil Francis Ng, who is trying to get his hands on some precious gems. Lai, perennial romantic-comedy star and one of the original "heavenly Kings" of Canto-pop, makes a sympathetic leading man. When we find that Ng has taken Lai's family hostage, we eagerly anticipate his inevitable revenge. For an action movie that lingers over a few touchy-feely scenes, Lai is an inspired selection. Lai for the most...
...office draw. And in the next nine months, audiences will get to see the latest results of his relentless workload. First up is the well-reviewed Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, which opens across Europe this month.

Finally, next May, comes Troy. You don't need to be a lovestruck...
Nervous is perhaps how Weinstein felt five years ago when Rodriguez came to him with the idea for Spy Kids. After all, this was the former University of Texas film student who burst onto the indie scene in 1993 with the bloody Mexican action flick El Mariachi. Desperado, the 1995 Hollywood version of El Mariachi, had a sky-high body count but was in turn seriously outgored by Rodriguez's next movie, the 1996 vampire pic From Dusk Till Dawn. His upcoming film, Once Upon a Time in Mexico, due in September, is about a bloody coup. Weinstein's response...
...Aoshima swaggers along Tokyo's glittering waterfront, headed for action. With disheveled hair, necktie loosened rakishly and a cigarette dangling from his lips, he looks every bit the renegade cop. But when Aoshima reaches his destination, he hesitates and looks around sheepishly?there's no place for him to flick his cigarette! It's not nice to litter. What if someone sees him? Or complains? He sighs, pulls an ashtray from his coat, stabs out the butt, rolls his eyes and heads inside...
