The Blade (product link) Swordplay/Sword(s) / Action/Adventure Unbelievable movie. Not non-stop action, but still one of my favorite martial arts movies. Tsui Hark (director) is a genius. Vincent Zhao and Hung Yan Yan are great.
A Better Tomorrow 3 (product link) Action/Adventure / Bullet Ballet Ok movie. I think only for hardcore Chow Yun Fat fans. Not nearly as good as the first one.
Bichunmoo (product link) Drama / Action/Adventure Awesome movie. Story is a little too sappy, but if you like some wire work, bodies being sliced in half, solid martial arts, this is a cool movie. Definitely recommend it.
Big Bullet (product link) Drama / Bullet Ballet Kind of disappointing. Won one award at the Hong Kong Film Awards and was nominated for quite a few others, but I didn't think it was anything special. Ok story, ok acting, ok action.
Blade Of Fury (product link) Martial Arts / Swordplay/Sword(s) Ok martial arts movie. Watching the dubbed version may have made it worse. Pretty good action and fighting. Sammo Hung plays a strange prison guard. Recommend as an addition to a martial arts collection, definitely not a necessity.
The Chinese Feast (product link) Comedy / Drama Great non-martial arts movie with martial arts-type feel. Cool story, yummy food. I'm not a big Leslie Cheung fan, but I like this one. Vincent Zhao and Hung Yan Yan are great too. Another awesome Tsui Hark creation.
Dr. Wai In The Scripture With No Words (product link) Martial Arts / Fantasy Much better than expected. Billed as a Jet Li Indiana Jones movie but supposedly not nearly as good. I thought it had a great story, some humor, impressive action. A definite for Jet Li fans.
The Eagle Shooting Heroes (product link) Fantasy / Martial Arts Maybe I missed something, but I did not enjoy this one. Great cast, but really stupid, confusing, not funny, poor use of wires, completely absurd. I usually like this type of movie, but I don't want to even watch this again.
Flying Dagger (product link) Martial Arts / Comedy I was disappointed with this. It was confusing, strange, funny in parts, but I expected a much better movie overall. This is rare for me, but I don't want to watch this movie again.
Friend [2001] (product link) Crime / Drama Great growing-up-on-the-streets Korean movie. Not a "gangster" movie, but gang-related. Moving story, brutal, heart-breaking scenes. A Korean classic.
The Lovers [1991] (product link) Romance Ok movie. Cheesy story but not that bad. Not one of my favorites from him, but still a decent Tsui Hark movie.
Nowhere To Hide (product link) Action/Adventure / Crime Ok movie. A couple of big names from Korea, but a little absurd. People say the Matrix took one the fight scenes from this movie. A little disappointing but still not that bad.
