Iron Ladies

we watched this thai movie last night...

damn, if those crazy thais don't have the longest last names ever!

but that's beside the point.

iron ladies is a volleyball movie based on a true story about the thai male volleyball team that competes in the national championship... but with a twist! they're all gay, oh, with the exception of one straight guy with a girlfriend...

some are a little more feminine than others... and one is a transexual.... i think the actor is actually a woman. i hope. because she's hot. and it would be a huge blow to my ego if she were a he... i've decided that i need to go to thailand...

but, anyway, yeah... if you've ever watched any asian sports-themed movie, you've seen this one... underdogs fight against all odds ... and we all know how it's going to end...

despite the formulaic plot, the movie doesn't suck. the actors are great... and it's a fun movie. it's no shaolin soccer, but it's all right... and when they roll the end credits, you get to see the real iron ladies... i love to see the real people ... just because. i don't know why. i just do.

anyway, worth a netflix rent... if you like asian and/or sports movies...

hey! there's a prequel/sequel to the movie... hrm...
