A pleasant suprise.
I saw this film at a film festival which has midnight screenings of Hk movies. I was there for the Chow Yun Fat film festival, but the last film was cancelled. No one was told. I sat down and almost died when the film wasn't 'Peace Hotel'. However, I had paid my eight bucks. I also was intrigued by seeing a Hk film i new nothing about. I was pleasantly suprised. The film was no masterpiece, ...

Another Gambling Movie
Andy Lau stars as a conman in this movie. Don't be mistaken by the title, this film has no correlation to his role in God of Gambling series. Released from jail for a crime he committed during a gambling game with a mob head where he killed him, he came out searching for his lost wife only to find Cheung Ka Fai, an admirer of his, to be around when he was released from jail. The story goes and ...

Classic Jackie Chan
Jackie Chan is back again in this fast paced action comedy. The action starts in Hong Kong, where Jackie works as a sales assistant selling exercise equipment. The viewer is immediately thrown into an action packed chase scene where Jackie pursues robbers in a shopping mall. Jackie Chan always makes good use of the props surrounding him, which is always a delight to witness. The action is then ...

Run of the mill
This week's inevitable asian horror review from me, is "Shiver", a "Eyes of Laura Mars" imitator with some neat moments, but some tired ones as well. The wife of a cop who is getting ready to leave him, is delayed in her departure by being shot in the head by accident when he gets out of their car in traffic to deal with some robbers. When she eventually comes to, she has apparently gained some ...

Not as good as part 1, but still worth watching
After being transported back in time 500 years Stephen Chow is given a certain mark on his foot by an Immortal woman. She is a very nice lady, but her sister also lives in her body. So while she is nice in the daytime, her evil sister is the one who lives in her body at night. Stephen Chow falls in love with her. Honestly I couldn't follow the story very well. The Longevity Monk is trying to ...

Donnie Yen at his best
the best donnie yen movies right now! The fighting scenes are fanstatic. This movie is all about Donnie Yen. His martial art styles might not be as great as Bruce Lee but it flawlessly more beautiful and enegertic than Jet Li and Jackie Chan. He the real deal. I know my kung fu movies and this is one of my all time favorites.

Stephen Chow was born to play Monkey King
I bought both these movies because of the rave reviews from Stephen Chow fans. Their biggest drawback: substandard English subtitles. However, the movies pay you back for sticking with them in spite of this. The first one was kind of tough -- lots of broad physical humor -- a few brilliant Stephen Chow gags. And the second one is connected to the first one in only a haphazard way. But you ...

The Fox Keeps Flying
This is a multilevel, multifaceted tale of courage and honor in the face of almost inconceivable treachery. The scope of the story is certainly Shakespearean in breadth as well as in its characterization. If the "good guys" are a little too good at times, the "bad guys" are really bad! One of them could easily be a stand-in for Iago in "Othello." This series is well worth the money and the ...

Great movie
"A Chinese Odyssey: Pandora's Box" and "A Chinese Odyssey: Cinderella" is a two-parts series movie. Together, it is my favorite Chinese movie of all time. It's a modern and humorous twist on the famous Chinese story of "The Journey West" (also known as "The Monkey King"). In the first part, the Monkey King has been reincarnated as Joker, the leader of a group of bandits... However, I'm ...

Easy Money

Universe Laser & Video Co., 2001
A quite nicely assembled "international intrigue" heist picture from Hong Kong, Easy Money is a thinly disguised 1987 riff on The Thomas Crown Affair . It was one of the first films produced after martial arts star Michelle Yeoh (then Khan) became engaged to Dickson Poon, the tycoon who owned the D&B production company, and marked a conscious effort to soften her image. As a result, action-oriented Yeoh fanciers are likely to be ...

Better Than the Original
I was inspired to see this after seeing the original, and this one falls into that rare category of "Sequel Good As / Better Than the Original". Stephen Chow is truly hysterical; I can't remember laughing so hard in a long time. Check this out, it is well worth your while.
