GOOD movie to watch
EPIC FANTASY-MARTIAL ARTS DRAMA WITH A COMEDIC TWIST This was a really great movie; the perfect marriage between spectacular swordplay and special effects. Set in imperial China, this movie has everything a martial arts/fantasy fan could want - love, ambition, honor, martial arts, magic and wonderful production values with the added bonus of a wise cracking protagonist. The movie smoothly shifts ...

Woo me, baby
This is one of the more visually stylish genre pics that I saw at this year's Seattle International Film Festival. Although the story is pure pulp and could have stood a little script doctoring, it's shot with the rich tones of a Bertolucci film and plays like a 90-minute dance mix of Sergio Leone's greatest hits. Produced by Hong Kong cinema legend John Woo, and signaling a directorial debut by ...

The GREATEST movie I have yet to see!
Infernal Affairs has to be the greatest movie I have seen. It was brilliantly directed, wonderful storyline and such great acting by Andy Lau & Tony Leung Chiu-Wa. We need more beautiful, crime, thriller movies like Infernal Affairs instead of that cheap stuff we get from Hollywood. I will not get into the details about the movie, but I think it's a movie for those who love drama, crime, and ...

Enjoyable action flick
Andy Lau is good at playing menacing and does so with great abandon in this film. Okay, the plot is kind of predictable and the film isn't the greatest ever made, but I still found it enjoyable. Basically the film is about the "competion" between two assasins. One wants to move on from being a killer and the other wants to kill the competition and be numbero uno. It has the over-the-top, ...

Two words: Get it
I don't have a lot to add to "Randroid"'s review. Wong Kar-Wai is one of the world's premier directors, making audacious, complex films that grab one's heart. Influenced by the French New Wave, bent through the prism of Hong Kong cinema, his is a stylish and unique vision. This box set contains five of his seven films that have been released to DVD: -- As Tears Go By -- Days of Being Wild ...

I can't decide which I like better, the story or the beautiful costuming, settings, music, etc. And then there's the exquisite dancing and breathtaking action, precisely and interestingly choreographed. The story is about a woman, on an extremely important mission, who falls in love with the enemy. However, she was already bound to another man. Enter the classic love triangle but this is so ...

Corny, but who cares?
As said in the title, Jackie Chan movies require a specific taste in acting and dialogue. That being said, this movie still is awesome. Jackie Chan is a god, and could take on Bruce Lee AND Chuck Norris. This movie is only trumped by the prequel.

I have not laughed so hard at a movie in many years. This is an excellent comedy. Andy Lau and Sammi Cheng were both very funny. Having to read the subtitles did not detract from this movie at all.

Hot
Contrary to other reviewer's notions of the film, "Days of Being Wild" does have a plot. The movie is a tale of existential angst. Stephen Teo places the movie in the area of quasi gangster cum romance. In short "Days of Being Wild" is, in the tradition of "Rebel without a Cause" an `ah fei' movie - a story of lost youth. A large portion of the movie centers on dysfunctional relationships and ...

Jackie Chan's great bit part
This movie followed the typical 'jail house' plot line with both a cop and a gangster's murderer on the inside forming an unspoken, unportrayed alliance. The cinemography was average for a high budget martial arts flick (better than I expected it to be), and there is a delightful selection of great actors present. The title is quite misleading, as Jackie Chan may well be the least represented ...

Love Stuff
"Yesterday Once More" is a film that I really liked. Hong Kong director Johnny To gives Andy Lau the chance to perform in an amazing role and performance. Lau has starred in over 60 films and probably should be a household name in the U.S. too. I really enjoyed "Fulltime Killer," and this film gives him a chance to show quite a different side of his acting talents. He starts as a kind of ...

Sets a screen on fire
Heavenly King Andy Lau gives a rather corny performance in "Saviour of the Soul", and yet this movie still manages to be striking. An excessively melodramatic romance that proves a typical theme - the one that says, "Love never dies." Another Heavenly King on the screen, Aaron Kwok, is reason enough to buy this film. Aaron plays the "bad guy" - the only "bad" role he has taken in his acting ...

Karmic Visions Of The Past , Present, And Future!
"Running On Karma," has to be one of the most entertaining films that I have seen in a long time. I truly enjoyed this film, and highly recommend it to everyone. Not only is this film very entertaining, but there are an equal amount of funny scenes in this film as well as tragic. The film stars a character by the name of Biggie (Andy Lau) as an ex-shaolin monk with Karmic visions. Biggie gets his ...

An almost perfect Hong Kong movie
Running Out of Time is probably as close to a perfect film as you're ever likely to see out of Hong Kong. All the elements click: a terrific script (by French writers Julien Carbon and Laurent Courtiaud) that even manages to subvert the odd clich?, reliably imaginative direction by Johnnie To, and excellent central performances by Andy Lau and Lau Ching Wan, the latter displaying his great comic ...

"The Departed" meets "Mulholland Drive" meets "Infernal Affairs"
I don't think this is overrated one bit; a travelogue of madness, corruption, and the looming shadow of slain innocence, "INF3" is damn near perfect. Andy Lau definitely takes the cake here as the corrupt and just about totally crazy Inspector Ming, now head of Internal Affairs. The dreamlike flow of the film takes it's cues from David Lynch; and you can tell that the director was very ...

Most of this movie is about nothing but jokes about ...
