DVD: wong     DVD:       National Lampoon Presents - Mr Wong13 reviews National Lampoon's Mr Wong Maverick, 2004 If you want politically incorrect humor that will make... ...you laugh out loud, just purchase this DVD. Mr. Wong is an 85 year old Chinese houseboy who worked for Bing Crosby for 37 years. When Bing dies, his estate is purchased by Miss Pam, a super wealthy socialite, who soon learns that she has also purchased the services of Mr. Wong. Simply put, it is in your face humor that is funnier than hell. Of course, there are Asian groups who dislike it as ...             The World of Suzie Wong50 reviews William Holden, Nancy Kwan Paramount, 2004 An excellant love story Holden is great, and Nancy Kwan as beautiful as she is just dropped out of sight after this movie. A tear jerker, but a good one as to the way the real orient is!             Duncan Wong Yogic Arts - Awakening Level16 reviews Duncan Wong Acacia, 2006 Great for this novice with joint issues I've got a few health issues that limit the types of exercise I can perform while at the same time require me to be sure I stretch well on an almost daily basis. Given that, I'm so grateful to have stumbled upon this DVD. When I've tried yoga in the past, too much strain was placed on my wrists and other joints. I like Pilates, but my neck takes a beating. Wong has ordered and styled his moves ...             Wing Chun - The Science of In-Fighting24 reviews Wong Shun Leung Cav Distribution, 2003 Wing Chun: The Science of In-Fighting This instructional dvd on Wing Chun is dated, but don't let that keep you from buying it - appreciate this dvd for the time it was produced. Even though it was produced in the 70s, it was very-well filmed and even a novice can learn from it. I would rate this dvd superior to many instructional martial arts being produced with today's technology which seem to be more about theatrics & CGI than ...             Chungking Express (Blu-ray) - Criterion Collection [Blu-ray] Tony Leung, Takeshi Kaneshiro Criterion Collection, 2008 The whiplash, double-pronged Chungking Express is one of the defining works of nineties cinema and the film that made Hong Kong filmmaker Wong Kar-wai an instant icon. Two heartsick Hong Kong cops (Takeshi Kaneshiro and Tony Leung), both jilted by ex-lovers, cross paths at the Midnight Express take-out restaurant stand, where the ethereal pixie waitress Faye (Faye Wong) works. Anything goes in Wong s gloriously shot and utterly unexpected ...             Mr. Wong, Detective - The Complete Collection (Mr. Wong, Detective / The Mystery of Mr. Wong / Mr. Wong in ...14 reviews Boris Karloff, Keye Luke VCI Entertainment, 2008 MR WONG ITS HARD TO CONCEIVE BORIS KARLOFF AS AN ASIAN, WITH HIS SPEECH AND HEIGHT. BUT HE PULLS IT OFF WITH SOME GOOD MOVIES. SOME OF THE SCRIPTS WERE USED IN OTHER MOVIES OF THE ERA, BUT ITS STILL GOOD VIEWING.             To Wong Foo Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar108 reviews Wesley Snipes, Patrick Swayze Universal Studios, 2003 To Wong Fu Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar I have treasured this movie for years. I own the vhs version, but rarely want to take the time and trouble ( all that rewinding) to get it out. With the new and used option at Amazon it is very simple to find your favorites at great prices with just a few clicks of a button. Who can imagine those three hansome guys posing as women? Hard to believe but they do it well. Even with those bulging ...             Wong Kar Wai Collection (As Tears Go By / Days of Being Wild / Fallen Angels / Chungking Express / Happy ...2 reviews Andy Lau, Maggie Cheung Kino Video, 2004 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 ...             In the Mood for Love - Criterion Collection135 reviews Maggie Cheung, Tony Leung Chiu-Wai Criterion, 2002 The seductive quality of restraint There are only three romance films I will view time and time again - Casablanca, Cinema Paradiso and In the Mood for Love. To dismiss the third as simply a pointless art house film is, in my opinion, undeserved because I regard it as a prime example of cinematic art at its best and most accessible. A reviewer has termed the appreciation of this film as "cult following," and if that's the case, ...             Duncan Wong Yogic Arts - Source Power8 reviews Duncan Wong Acacia, 2006 Intense! I originally borrowed a copy of Source Power to try it out. I've done martial arts since I was a child and yoga for about nine years, the idea of a fusion of both is fascinating to a fanatic of both disciplines like me. I had tried Budokon with good results but it is simply a good yoga session followed by a basic karate session. (Budokon is highly recommended but hardly the fusion it promises to ...             Piccadilly12 reviews Gilda Gray, Anna May Wong Image Entertainment, 2005 (4.5 stars) wonderfully fresh British silent film Fantastic film. I won't repeat what others have said about this film. It is a very refreshing silent. It doesn't drag. Beautifully shot and so modern with its images. Needless to say, Anna May is so beautiful in this film. Perky, defiant, and exotic. It was wonderful seeing how good a silent film actress she was. Her facial expressions were timeless! The story had some holes and the ...             The Mysterious Mr. Wong7 reviews Bela Lugosi, Wallace Ford Alpha Video, 2002 One of the Best of the "Bad" films. This is one of the best of the cheap "Chinatown" mysteries. A real classic. The more you watch it, the more it grows on you. DVD picture quality is pretty good, the sound is OK, but what can your expect from Monogram pictures. Buy it!             My Blueberry Nights (The Miriam Collection)14 reviews Jude Law, Norah Jones Weinstein Company, 2008 Diners, Trains, Gamblers, Love in Slo-Mo "My Blueberry Nights" represents Wong Kar Wai at the peak of his craft. Not the stylistic transition I had expected as much as a translation of a directors vocabulary into a different spoken language. Which seems to make little difference, as Mr. Wong speaks a cinematic language that is both all his own and universal. Each slow-mo blur and obstructed frame has as much poetry in it as a line of ...             Days of Being Wild9 reviews Leslie Cheung, Maggie Cheung Kino Video, 2004 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 ...             204678 reviews Chen Chang, Maggie Cheung Sony Pictures, 2005 One of my favorites.... ever. Subtitles. Might keep people away. But it shouldn't phase you a bit. This is a truly excellent movie. A well crafted adult movie, that reveals so much on how love is affected by time.             Chungking Express - Criterion Collection Tony Leung, Takeshi Kaneshiro Criterion Collection, 2008 The whiplash, double-pronged Chungking Express is one of the defining works of nineties cinema and the film that made Hong Kong filmmaker Wong Kar-wai an instant icon.

They were worth the money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!             Chungking Express96 reviews Brigitte Lin, Tony Leung Chiu Wai Miramax, 2002 Best romantic comedy ever I've rated over 1700 movies. Only 49 of them got 5 stars. Chungking Express is the only romantic comedy in that group. If you don't fall in love after watching this flick, you're just creepy, and possibly a Klingon.             As Tears Go By2 reviews Andy Lau, Maggie Cheung Kino International, 2004 Building Blocks to Greatness As Tears Go By is the pure `Ah Fei' offering from Wong Kar-wai. Stephen Teo writes that you take one part Scorcese's "Mean Streets," and you add one part Jarmusch's "Stranger than Paradise" (Teo 16) and you have one heck of a Triad film. A triad sibling Wah (Andy Lau) has his little brother Fly's (Jackie Cheung) back. Fly is constantly in trouble. Added to the mix is Wah's cousin Ngor (Maggie ...              search for DVDs angels, awakening, blu-ray, blueberry, chinatown, chungking, collection, complete, criterion, detective, double, duncan, everything, express, fallen, feature, fighting, in-fighting, lampoon, mysterious, mystery, national, newmar, nights, phantom, piccadilly, presents, science, source, together DVD:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
