Likable trio of art thiefs mastermind elaborate heists in Paris. Afterwards they toast their laurels and have a jolly good time. You almost forget you're watching a John Woo film. Never fear. Guns start ablazing. Things blow up real good. Bad guys eat lead. It's soon revealed that Joey(Chow Yun-Fat), Jim (Leslie Cheung), and Cherie(Cherie Leung) were ...             Once a Thief1 review Leslie Cheung, Cherie Chung Platinum Disc, 2004 Great Title, but find the series The DVD is a powerful story with a great deal of humor, but the TV series produced out of canada is hard to find, but makes a great addition to any cops and robbers/ super spy series lover             The Postman Fights Back6 reviews Yun-Fat Chow, Ka-Yan Leung 20th Century Fox, 2004 "One must have skills to travel the world" -- Fu Jun Many of Hong Kong films have a backdrop of historical intrigue in the Qing Dynasty (circa 1644 to 1911).

Jackie Chan, Jackie Chan, Jackie Chan... You Bak Guis didn't get it, did you? This was a Sammo Hung movie and if you were brought up in the 60's, 70's and 80's with the genre you would know that not all Chinese movies are about Jackie Chan, Jackie Chan, Jackie Chan...

This movie paid ...             Fatal Love2 reviews Cherie Chung, Melvin Wong Tai Seng, 2001 Better left for late night cable viewing... There are two HK films with this title. I'm reviewing the version starring Michael Wong and Ellen Chan. Wong plays a businessman and murder suspect. Lovely Ellen Chan is the undercover cop out to nail him for a string of murders. She forgets her duty and falls in love with him. Lots of sexual content, frontal nudity and violence. I liked the story and the ending. I could have done without much of ...             Once a Thief18 reviews Leslie Cheung, Yun-Fat Chow Sony Pictures, 2003 Caper Film Woo Style The film starts out breezy enough.

While the theme of this movie is not new, I must say that this movie is a classic and stands on its own as it is Asian Movie Queen Ivy Ling Po's final movie before her retirement. Indeed she breaks out of her usual famous male impersonator roles to play an evil witch with great expertise surpassing the evil spirit in A Chinese Ghost Story. The female ghost as played by Cherie Chung flies around ...             The Dead and the Deadly1 review Cherie Chung, Fat Chung Tai Seng, 2003 Good Followup To 'Encounters Of The Spooky Kind'. I'm not sure if this was intended as a sequel to 'Encounters of The Spooky Kind'. I enjoyed this film a lot. Basically, it was about Sammo's character trying to avenge the death of one of his friends, played by Wu Ma, who he suspects was murdered. There isn't much fighting in this one, compared to the previous film. Sammo has one big fight scene in the middle, and that's pretty much it. But ...             God of Killers4 reviews Yun-Fat Chow, Cora Miao Beverly Wilshire, 2000 Chow Yun-Fat's first starring role in a motion picture "God of Killers" is yet another in a long line of retitled Hong Kong films designed to get the unsuspecting public to either rent or buy a title that they may have previously seen. This 1981 film was Chow's first major starring role and he's excellent here. But why change the name of the film from the original "The Story of Woo Viet?" There's really no need to do so. "The Story of Woo Viet" ...             Fatal Love Leslie Cheung, Cherie Chung Tai Seng, 2003             The Postman Fights Back6 reviews Yun-Fat Chow, Ka-Yan Leung Tai Seng, 1999 "One must have skills to travel the world" -- Fu Jun Many of Hong Kong films have a backdrop of historical intrigue in the Qing Dynasty (circa 1644 to 1911).

However, I've become a big fan of HK movies lately, and many critics consider this the quintessential Hong Kong movie. The story centers around the escapades of three women (played by Brigitte Lin, Sally Yeh and Cherie Chung, all popular HK starlets), with plenty of action, ...             Zodiac Killers2 reviews Andy Lau, Cherie Chung Tai Seng Entertainment, 1998 Disappointing I saw this last night at an Ann Hui retrospective, and after seeing several excellent films anticipated that I would be able to get in a fight with Luke's .. er, lukewarm .. review. But he's right. Hui, and stars Andy Lau and Cherie Chung, have all done better, much better. I give it three *'s only because Cherie Chung is so pleasant to look at even in a bad role like this. Plus, there are ...             The Eighth Happiness2 reviews Yun-Fat Chow, Bak-Ming Wong Tai Seng, 2001 Non-stop fun - and CYF in drag. While the plot of this movie is funny unto itself, the one true reason to see this film is the *incredible* performance by Chow Yun-Fat. You've seen him as the ruthless cop, the compassionate assassin, the toughened prison inmate. Now you can see him as "a sissy girl" (to quote the subtitles in the plot) - but it's all a sham to cover the fact he's a shameless womanizer. Well, it makes ...             Wild Search6 reviews Yun-Fat Chow, Cherie Chung Mei Ah Laser Disc Co., Ltd., 1999 Subtle performances, appealing characters Chow Yun Fat plays Hong Kong Police Sergeant Lau Chun Pong, nicknamed "Mew Mew". Mew Mew is a man on the ragged edge. He is, we learn a widower whose wife and child were killed by a robber, he is a man in a downward spiral. He seems numb to life that swirls around him--when he is first introduced, he's sitting in a car, chain smoking cigarettes and drinking from his flask, watching the drama of ...             Zong heng si hai [Region 2]18 reviews Leslie Cheung, Yun-Fat Chow Caper Film Woo Style The film starts out breezy enough.
