Jackie Chan - The Myth (2007)

Jackie Chan, Hee-seon Kim

Sony Pictures, 2007

One of Jackie Chan's Better Releases, of Late.
Lately I'm on a martial arts kick (no pun intended). Very much enjoyed the visual artistry of fare such as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Curse of the Golden Flower, Hero, Iron Monkey and House of Flying Daggers. But, I've always been a fan of Jackie Chan's "modern" work. Can't wait to pick up The Forbidden Kingdom, too... I think this movie does a beautiful job blending the old-school and ...

If you want to see the special effects X-men should have had
This MOVIE is way ahead of its time. The special effects, or fireworks as some reviewers put it were well in advance of anything I've seen in Matrix, X-men, Hulk, Spiderman and the like. If your looking for a storyline, plot and all that pick up a book instead of watching a MOVIE. For action packed, VISUAL ectsasy this is one of the greats. CGI is the wave of the future for movies my friends. ...

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 ...

Better than Fast n Furious
This is way better the only reason fast n furious could be considered better is because of all the visual candy they give you in the movie. Atleast in The Legend of Speed we have a solid plot to enjoy while watching racing and it does have it's funny moments especially Sky's dad. N e ways give this movie a bigger budget and then I bet you wouldn't think F&F was better then this movie

Cutthroat Island

GREAT MOVIE ENJOYMENT
This must be my weekend for pirate movies, first THE SPANISH MAIN and now CUTTHROAT ISLAND. This DVD has been selling recently at mark down prices at WalMart but did not buy a copy. However when one of the cable movie channels had it on I decided to skip a pro-football game to watch. I was rewarded with an action packed, non stop explosive movie filled with great acting and great special ...

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 ...

...
A very impressive and entertaining movie, with the characters being the chief virtue, and the image of the world it creates a close second. The characters are definately human beings, not perfect, nor are their follies unsymathetic (with a few exceptions), and they really feel like part of the world in the film... which is also a testament to the quality of the acting (it really is a relief ...

Patrick Tam, Eric Tsang

Tai Seng, 2004

Tries To Be A Tragic Drama And A Comedy!
One of the problems with the film, "City of SARS," is that the director, Cheng Wai Man, put too many disjointed elements into the film, and as a result, was not able to bring a cohesive enough film to the screen. First, the film begins as a tragedy, where patients are dying, including the medical staff running a hospital. Then the film segues into an alarming drama where the citizens are caught ...

not as good as A True Mob Story...
Triad action drama from Wong Jing(uhh...i despise him sometimes) features Andy Lau as Fei-Lung, an aging legendary triad boss who's been straight for years. accompanying him is his right-hand man, Sing (Louis Koo), who's really an undercover cop assigned to watch Fei-Lung. Sing develops a respect for Fei-Lung and doubts his current involvement in anything shady. However, everything is brought to ...

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, ...

Very Funny!!
This is a very funny movie which brings out the acting ability of it's star Lau Chin Wan. Previously I was familiar with him potraying only the cool and deadly cop image but this was a pleasant surprise.. The story tells of a company who wanted to create the ultimate bra. They felt that only a man could offer advice in this area as he stands to benefit the most from this creation. To this end ...

(3.5 STARS) Terrorist Who Lost His Memories: Above Average Hong Kong Action
Hong Kong action film `Purple Storm' has one clever idea at the center of it, but you may not like it exactly because of its total implausibility. Still the idea - turning an amnesic terrorist into a secret agent working for the police - is an interesting one, and Daniel Wu playing a young terrorist who begins to be aware of his better side of personality did a fantastic job together with capable ...

Rutger Hauer, Robert Patrick

Lions Gate, 1999

TYPICAL B-MOVIE
Ok, as much as I hate to say it, this film is nothing special. I think Rutger Hauer is a phenomenal actor, but the movies he's been in over the past five years really stink. The film is bearable but don't expect too much. Special effects are minimal and the filming of flight scenes are not very convincing - poor version of Top Gun. If you are a Rutger Hauer fan stick to movies such as the ...

It's OK, not that awful but not that fantastic...
Hmmm... This movie was definiely not up to my expectations. There was such a lot of hype about it and from the many trailers that I watched, I already had a, you know, a sort of opinion of what I was going to get from the movie and so you can say that I got a surprise. Which was no good. A friend of mine who also watched this show said that the plot was moving too fast and he is right. I ...
