Secret Of Tai Chi (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Another mainland great. One thing I disliked was the typical anti-Manchu theme. The action quality and quantity is huge, the choreography is the flowing wushu type. There are a lot of people with huge ability. Everybody can fight in this movie.
Holy Robe Of Shaolin Temple [Crash Cinema] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Where should I start? I did have big expectations for director Tsui Siu Ming, as he worked on "Born To Defence" (Jet Li), "Mirage", and "Bury Me High". Everything was better than a mediocre movie--the choreography especially got the flow and shapes but not the fire as in "Mirage" and "Born To Defence". Yu Rong Guang's Tai Chi style was supreme, this guys is nuts. I wish the movie had a role for Tsui Siu Ming the man himself, then it maybe could be a little better.
Daggers 8 [PanMedia] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Again a Wilson Tong-directed old schooler. This one wasn't rare like the others, this is a typical "Drunken Master" wannabe, but was much better in acrobatics because of Meng Yuen Man as the main star. We also see Lily Li and Alan Tsui, and they fight very well in this movie. The choreography here flowed very well also. Wilson Tong is bad ass as always, and we also get Chan Lung fighting here, better than the other fights he had in "Snake Deadly Act" and "Kung Fu Genius". Cheng Kang Yeh again makes an appearance with a copy of a typical Dean Shek role. I don't know what others say, but Wilson Tong knows his stuff. One thing nice to see was Billy Chan fighting Meng Yuen Man with the old school background in the beginning.
Drunken Master 2 (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure What can I say one of the best Chan movies? Filled with energetic fights, especially the finale, watch out for Ken's kicks. The movie is great in every way, don't miss it. I recommend this movie for any action movie lovers. Very good Wong Fei Hong story...don't wanna spoil it any more. JUST DON'T MISS IT.
