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.
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.
Jiang Hu [LE 2-Disc Box] (product link) Action/Adventure / Crime This is a Hong Kong gang movie. I kind of like Ekin Cheng, so I got this. I didn't like it. If you don't like the gangster-style movies, you probably won't like this one.
Police Story 2 (product link) Martial Arts / Comedy Definitely not one of my favorite Jackie Chan movies. A little old for my taste (I like the early-, mid-90s stuff), and not the greatest action.

I agree. Other than the fantastic fight in the playground, there wasn't a whole lot of action. This one pales in comparison to the first Police Story.
Azumi (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Weak action. This reminds me of one of the new style movies with singers (non-actors and actresses) in the main roles. These kids had no business being in a swordplay movie. If you're looking for good martial arts action, don't watch this one.
The Raid (product link) Action/Adventure Disappointing. I expected much better from Tsui Hark. A few big names, but kind of lame action, not a great story.
Tri-Star (product link) Comedy / Action/Adventure I guess if you're a Leslie Cheung fan, you'll have to see this one. It's okay. Kind of a cute story and has a few funny parts.
Attack The Gas Station (product link) Dark Comedy / Comedy This wasn't as funny as I expected. It's a little dark. Lots of famous Korean actors, but I wasn't very impressed.
Memento Mori (product link) Horror / Ghost Not much new in this high school horror/thriller. I didn't see the first one in the series (Whispering Corridors), but this one's still a little scary.
New Police Story (product link) Action/Adventure / Martial Arts I was disappointed. I had read that this was Jackie Chan's best movie in a long time, but I didn't like it very much. A little too dramatic.

Like many of Jackies later films, this one follows a familiar pattern: strong begining, boring middle and terrific ending. Three stars is about right for this one.
What Price Survival (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Artistic martial arts movie. Just ok fighting. The camera moves too much, and the screen cuts from one view to another way too often. You can't really see what's happening, so not good for pure martial arts fans. Interesting revenge story.
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.
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.
