TWISTING TIGER | Omeleto

[@CamboMeng]

Beautifully shot pun intended. The journey to redemption paid off for the Monk. I can’t help but think of the switching of roles with ethnicity made for a powerful story. Kudos to all involved this delivered a karate chop to my brain.

[@undead9999]

a perfect blend of "boyz n the hood" and "shaolin temple". I love this so much, deserves a full feature film release.

As a lifelong fan of martial arts movies, I have to say I really enjoyed this. Well done! Cool story with emotional impact, but still feels like a tribute to the classic king do movies I've always loved. Great fight choreography in the climax.

[@millionsofideas]

I’ve never stopped to watch a short movie on KZbin but this is my first time. Totally worth it. Love it. We need more like this

[@TeamRedProductions]

Welcome :)

[@jeffffro7674]

30 minutes, how long does anyone think was spent to capture this HALF HOUR???? I am gonna guess close to a year! It wouldn't surprise me if it was even more than that!!! At the very least, I would say a minimum of 6-8 months, of daily work. Even when not on set, these folk are at home, practicing in front of a mirror, or practicing lines, trying to find the emotion they need to have to deliver the lines!!! I believe this is why we all love movies so much, some part of us understands the passion, the dedication, the motivation, the insane drive to get it done to the best of their ability!!! This one, is a wonderful example of all of that put into a perfect story. Twice it had tears on my cheeks, that's what great art does! It takes ahold of us in such a way that we lose ourselves, even if just for the moment we're watching, but sometimes that's all we need to continue our day to day, extremely mundane and un-extraordinary lives!!! Without art in this world, it would be a place NO ONE wants to be a part of! Thanks to everyone involved in this project! You ALL should be very proud of what you accomplished. I've been an artist for over 40 years and somehow I have not found the drive inside myself to do anything half as amazing as this piece. You all have my utmost respect!!!!!

[@Jaidritz9285]

I totally agree 👍.

[@justinmagee2203]

Beautiful choreography, typical inner city story. Simple message, martial arts have nothing to do with violence or the streets. Those things simply fall in line with everything else low when you rise above.

[@RedSplinter36]

As an avid kung fu fan and martial artist myself... this is pure brilliance! Such a throw back yet its own thing!!! Amazing talents and a beautiful film!!!

[@mark24soal1]

"A true throwback to the Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, and other iconic Kung Fu films and characters! I hope to see a series made!"

who ever that brother is with the cornrow hairstyle (Which I'm Going To Look Him Up) with real Shaolin kung Fu i presume, Michael J White have nothing on him and he needs to sit down with his weak sparing training match talking bout he can hit you fast and move nothing like that. this guy should be cast in the new "The Last Dragon" movie but i heard it's being made already. this guy impressed me and i'm going to save this video so i can watch it over and over and over and over.

[@harrietcampbell7115]

Each time I watch one of these short films I think that they can't possibly get any better but then one like this comes along. Surely nothing can top this.

[@Jaidritz9285]

It was an incredible short Movie, The fighting scenes, a beautiful dance of excellent choreographed movement. The story was told with compassion and the Acting was to me a standing ovation. I sincerely think this deserves an award. Thank you 😊 💓.

[@jeffffro7674]

Omeleto usually starts my day off in a good way, but today is going to be the day that Omeleto changes my life for the better!!!! Thanks to Allen bringing this film to me at the perfect moment in my off track life. I'm getting up right this second to change the path I'm on to the one that benefits me, the ones I love, and the ones I've never met. I hope at least one other person can understand this and do the same......it's not as difficult as you may think.

I can't find words to say how beautiful this movie is, its story line, its plot, the actors, the action scenes and and choreography... ...WOW!!! ...THIS MOVIE DESERVES A THEATRICAL SHOWCASE, AND GRAMMY AWARDS! I fought back tears while watching this. The message in this movie is about Forgiveness of one's self and forgiveness of others. because Holding Back is Thoughtfulness toward self preservation. When we act impulsively we destroy ourselves and others around us. Forgiveness is the way to true Peace. 💝

[@JimmyGeniusEllis]

This is true new age African American cinema. This is a perfect blend of ghetto themes mixed with peaceful martial arts themes. The choreography was beautiful. The quality of this film is as good as a Wesley snipes blade or a Micheal j white blood & bones. This movie should be fleshed out to 90 minutes or more and put in the cinema. I’m glad it has the millions of views it deserves.

[@stephaniedouglasaviewfroma9596]

20:36 What I like about this part is that it shows how street fight actually is if you’re fighting against a group of people no one is going to wait for their turn like in movies everyone will attack you at once

[@Joseramos-fw1nj]

This reminds me of my situation too when I used to be hanging around with the same people doing stuff that I wasn't supposed to do I ended getting beat up twice by 6 people at first and the last was with a person who knew how to street fight I got mad and depressed I didn't know what to do that I didn't want to hangout with the people I hanged out and starting learning how to teach my self how to fight too to get revenge on them all but one day I was exercising my situps and something so calm in my mind hit me telling me that that wasn't the answer but the mistakes and the efforts I was doing in my practice of skill was to become a better person and pass on the message to others from the same mistakes as I've done

I believe that calmness that came upon you that you felt was God. He has a peace that surpasses all understanding the Bible say’s. I remember I use to say a lot, “ something told me “ Like for example, something told me to not go, or something told me everything will be all right etc. Usually that something is God talking to us. He always wants better for us, he wants the best for us & I’m thankful he did that for you. 🙏
