SPL: Sha Po Lang (product link) Crime / Drama
 This film is truly a modern classic and I don't write this lightly.
It has everything that should make it work: a great story, brilliant drama, outstanding action, exceptional cinematography, and directing--and it works.
Did I forget to mention it stars Donnie Yen and Sammo Hung as the villain (yes, the villain)? And yes, they have an unbeliveable final fight scene which you won't forget.
It also has the best knife fight sequence I've ever seen.
This film blew me away in a way that I haven't been blown in a long time (the last film to blow me away like this was "The Killer").
Donnie's once again in top from in this one. If you liked "Flash Point" you'll love this movie; and if you don't add it to your collection, you're not a true fu fan.
This one lives up to the hype and surpasses it. |
