Stunning images, enigmatic stories -- an exceptional and exciting film about love and longing in Hong Kong
Three individuals whose lives intersect and parallel form the core of this stunningly photographed, moody and intense cinematic masterpiece. A hitman who is getting tired of the messiness of his job; his partner, who plans everything out for him in meticulous detail but would really like to cross the line with him between business and pleasure; a mute, who breaks into other people's businesses ...

"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 ...

Two Good Short Films and a Great One
As others have noted, this was the first omnibus film in the *3* series produced by Peter Chan. While the Korean and Thai sections do not quite reach the standard of "Dumplings" and "Cut" in the second film, they are not too far off the mark and are certainly not horrible films as others have said. "Memories" would probably take this viewer at least two more viewings to get hold of what is ...

Beautiful, sad, classic love story!
I have just recently became a fan of Hong Kong movies. I picked this one up because I love Leon Lai's movies. This is a tragic love story that involves college sweethearts who go their seperate ways only to meet again almost 20 years later. Although both are married with children, you cannot help but want them to be together. And, as their children put the pieces together, you begin to see ...

The movie's basically about a cop (Ekin) trying to catch a mob boss. This cop find the mobster's partner, who use to be a cop, gets him out of jail so he can help with catching the mobster. The ex-cop was taught by the mobster how to hyponize people just by using their weakness and the person would do whatever they were told to do. I was expecting to see a martial arts movie with little acting. I ...

The comic book action is what makes the backbone of this movie that is based on the manga. The plot involves a woman from another dimension and a human policeman from earth who are trying to keep the peace between their races by preventing an assasination and staying alive in the process. There are subplots involving policeman's partner being part human and part preturnatual beastie keeping his ...

it's not exactly great, it definatly didn't look too fake as, crouching tiger hidden dragon. i first watched this movie while i was in afghanistan, so i recommended it to my cousin. we now both enjoy this movie, because of the fact that they tried to keep away from making people fly.

Bullets = Three, Love = Zero?
Wow. Typical Hong Kong fare transplanted from overseas onto American soil is generally virtuoso gunplay punctuated by splashes of blood, mayhem, and explosions. This is not to say that these films are bad; rather, it is only to say that -- after several releases -- most films tend to blend together in plot, substance, acting, and theme. In my opinion, BULLETS OF LOVE has only a single ...

Eccentric but Awesome
Ill agree that this movie may get a little fuzzy, and jump around timelines like nothing.. but it is in my top 10 list of favorite movies.. I believe it potrays honor and sacrifice over great odds.. but you dont have to take our word for it. Give it a try. -Jarred

Funny, moving, filled with twists
Moonlight in Tokyo is a very odd film. A man in debt to Japanese gangsters comes across an old childhood classmate of his, a retarded-yet-earnest and good-looking fellow searching for his brother. When the man discovers his friend has a certain way of hugging people that puts them completely at ease, he transforms him into a gigolo in an effort to earn the money back. There are bound to be ...

Everything you have seen before and nothing like anything you have seen before.
One thing is for sure - it is everything you have seen before and nothing like anything you have seen before. As a Wong Kar-wai junkie, I have to admit - it is getting harder and harder to find a favorite - Fallen Angels is among the top three. In one sense I really loved Fallen Angels because it is full of the same urban angst brought up in Chungking Express. There is something utterly and ...

It's a sequel to Comrades, almost a love story
Maggie and Leon back again! and the outcome is simply great/ amazing/ irresistable. Maggie Cheung plays Ellen, a single mother who drives a cab by day and paints expressionistic artwork by night. One night she falls into a one-night stand with Mike (Leon Lai), an Internet mogul who needs to grow up in a big way. You see, he's one of those guys who doesn't like women leaving stuff at his place, ...
