Bunshinsaba (product link) Horror / Thriller I loved this movie. Excellent dark horror revenge ghost story! This film may keep you guessing who possessed who!
Dragon Fight (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Nice to see Stephen Chow and Jet Li in a movie together...before superstardom. Also, the film's real-life locations and relatively plausible plot makes this picture remarkably "realistic".
All For The Winner (product link) Comedy / Crime Excellent action set pieces (courtesy of Corey Yuen) and comic timing of Stephen Chow and Ng Man Tat is unbelievable, Highly recommended!
Curry And Pepper (product link) Action/Adventure / Comedy Excellent Film! I loved it! Chow and Cheung work very well as comic double act. Also featured the Police Chief from "Fight Back to Back 1&2" and "God of Gamblers 3", the notorious 'scissorlegs' who sends Chow to find his wallet this time. Eric Tang makes an appearance as a dodgy watch salesman. Finally, Blacky KO plays the demented killer and Directs.
Curse Of Lola (product link) Horror / Thriller Li Hong successfully mixes dance and drama for this beautiful stylish thriller. Remarkably, Hong uses very few words to assist the international viewer to focus on the cinematography. However, this film beatuy in dance/drama/thrills is worth viewing. Featured players are Tian Yuan (Luxury Car) and Francis NG (A Man Called Hero, One Last Dance).
Flirtong Scholar (product link) Nonsense Comedy / Fantasy Fun little romatic comedy (flaws and all). It's worth the watch. It's basically a boy-meets-girl story, with some song and dance numbers and a lot of comic kung fu. Very silly! Light amusing film! A MUST SEE CHOW FILM!!!
Ghost Delivery (product link) Horror / Thriller This is an excellent film. It's Thai fantasy thriller with a mixture of horror. It has comedy and romance. It's not a Scary Film but worth the purchase.
Excellent and colorful film (Fairy Tale revisted successfully). Its reminds of the 1948 "The Red Shoes" (Drama/Romance/Musical), where a ballerina is torn between diffult choices of marriage (to composer of "The Red Shoes") and her career. There is a lot of similarity between both films.
In the play, "The Red Shoes" and this film, women have obsession with the shoes and make sacifices to get the shoes.
Both locations are dark. "The Red Shoes" in both cases take control. In the play, "The Red Shoes" the ballerina is forced to dance and she has no control of where nor can she stop until death. The ballerina (off stage) was stressed by the pull of mentor and husband the same as "The Red Shoes", she felt as in the play death was the solution. She tries to choose death whether chose between marrige or career.
This film is a moderm woman's obsession with a pair of nice shoes. The photograpy is excellent in highlighting the shoes. The diffulty of getting rid of them...and as always death...is the only escape. This film is worth the purchase and watch. I don't want to give away too much.
Who Am I? (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure A secret agent loses his memory after falling from a crashing helicopter. He is then chased by a number of other agency operatives, but he has no idea why.
This film is one of Jackie Chan's best, ranking 'high' with the "Police Story" films and "Drunken Master II".
Also, has it all: action, comic relief (mix of goofy slapstick/jaw-dropping action), and a great storyline. Highly recommended to all fans of Jackie Chan.
War (product link) Action/Adventure / Martial Arts This film was very well done! It was a surprise what role Jet Li was playing and that's why this is a great film. It wasn't easy to guess the who the killer was and his relations and purpose. And the role the FBI surviving partner played. The ending is a great surprise! All questions are skillfully answered and it's different! I've seen the film four times and I want to watch it again and again. It's like the films "The History of Violence" and "Eastern Promises", "Rear Window", and so forth. It makes you think, and you want to see it again and again.
