Bio: I look for fast action martial art movies. A five star movie to me consist of great choreography such as Legendary Weapons of China, The Rebel Intruders, and Long Step Mantis just to name a few. Further more about my movie ratings, I don't really look for story, I just look for the boxing.
I think the (HK Flix) staff is great to give us the delight to share our thoughts and comments about certain movies we select. Now, we are an offical community sharing with each other our love for film.

 |  |  | |  The Secret Rivals 2 (see film details)
Martial Arts / Action/Adventure
I really enjoyed this film better than I did the first one. "Secret Rivals 2" was better choreographically than the first film. I recommend part 2 as the better choice to buy because it was more entertaining.

If you can see not a lot of people think u review good. again both make a good movie. | Rambo part 5 please | | Y | I agree that Secret Rivals 2 is much better than the first one. | DW53911 | | N | I agree Kungfumaniac- both make a good buy. The movie is worth more than 3 and half. Your review makes no sense. | Black Belt Ninja | | N | both make a great purchase | KungfuManiac |

| | | |  The Forbidden Kingdom (see film details)
Action/Adventure / Martial Arts
I believe this movie is basically for young kids, inviting the young generation to respect the elders. Quite frankly, this is not my kind of movie, but the scene with Jackie and Jet going at is worth watching this film for.
| | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! | | AGREE? | READER COMMENTS | AUTHOR | | N | This was an all right movie- But saying the fight scene is worth watching it does not mean to give it 3 stars- thats crazy talk. | Rambo part 5 please | | N | Did we watch the same Forbidden Kingdom. because when I saw it....it was a big let down for every fu fan. This is not a 3 star movie at all maybe like 2 or 1 but nomore than 2 and half. Watch the real version of the movie. | Black Belt Ninja | | N | did you watch the whole movie or just the fight scene with jackie & Jet, because this movie is not that good or even all right. | KungfuManiac | | N | nothing about this film is all right. I do agree with you that this flick is for kids. | JV47842 |

| | | |  Millionaires' Express (see film details)
Action/Adventure / Martial Arts
What a big disappointment--I mean, literally everybody and their momma was in this movie. And this movie was like this!!!! WOW, you got to see it to believe it. Because this film, especially at this budget, should have been the best movie in history for all martial arts movie lovers. This movie, as slow as it was, could not make up for the lost time of the final scene. I am very, very unhappy right now.
| | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! | | AGREE? | READER COMMENTS | AUTHOR | | N | The movie as a whole is well done, with nice action & great humor. This film is for the true fans. | Ashley | | N | The movie has it all. | Rambo part 5 please | | N | You gave Forbidden Kingdom 3 stars and this you only gave 2 and half. Are you serious? this movie is great, did you see the fight scenes. I don't think you saw the movie. | Black Belt Ninja | | N | did you watch the film, because the version I saw had a lot of good fight scenes. | KungfuManiac | | N | Whenever Millionaires' Express is brought up in a discussion among fu fans there is always 2 sides- people tht love it or hate it. I found the film fun & enjoyed the fights. The fights at the end are terrific. & the stars being silly is always nice. | JV47842 | | N | I have to disagree. The last twenty or thirty minutes is one long, beautifully chaotic, explosive fight-fest. I found the filler between fights to be more compelling than most kung fu movies. I'll admit, some of the comedy antics are over-done. | Mad Monkey | | N | Nope. You seem to be disregarding how well done and plentiful the action is toward the end. I also thought that there was enough humor and plot development throughout the film the keep things interesting. | Bastard Ronin | | Y | I agree that the film was a let down, but I do think it had a lot of really cool fights and stunts in it. It was a bit bloated and meandering, but if you can look past that, I think you'll find the action to be quite enjoyable and noteworthy. | Choco |

| | | |  The City Of Violence (see film details)
Action/Adventure / Crime
This movie was just too violent. I know the director tried to give his interpretation of what it looks like from the inside of violence, but I wanted to see action with style like every other good martial arts film. In my opinion, this movie was meant to satify the thirst of European moviegoers and not so much that of the American ones. So if you are American and you like European style filmmaking, well then this is the movie for you.
| | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! | | AGREE? | READER COMMENTS | AUTHOR | | N | The film is excellent it mixes great genres after genres. The action is crowd-pleasing & offbeat. The film is recommend for everyone. | Ashley | | N | this film wasnt all the european style and more crime and old school hong kong styled,which explains why the action is more raw and brutal and i believe that this film is actually not that violent | Movie Freak | | N | The movie was intense and a good story too. It was like little kill bill | Rambo part 5 please | | N | I did not understand your review, but I thought this was worth more than 3 stars. The story was good & the action scenes were nicely done for the low budget it had. | Black Belt Ninja | | N | The film was good | KungfuManiac | | N | I didn't think this movie was suppose to satisfy European moviegoers or fans of Euro films. The director Seung-wan Ryoo is highly influenced by American films. The film shows a lot of American film references. I didn't find this film too violent ither | JV47842 | | N | Too violent? I think you might be confused about the nature of the movies that you watch. | Bastard Ronin |

Martial Arts / Action/Adventure
SURPRISE!!! This is a good dam movie. Cliff Lok in this movie, is in my book, the most underrated martial arts actor of all time. Also, Wilson Tong absolutely outdoes himself with his martial arts direction in this film. This is a true classic--BUY QUICK!
| | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! | | AGREE? | READER COMMENTS | AUTHOR | | Y | Again with rating funny, Man ya need to calm down. Watch the films you review, then write about them. | Rambo part 5 please | | N | It was all right but not a surprise ya know | Black Belt Ninja | | N | not that good, it was all right but not 3 and half stars all right. | KungfuManiac |

| | | |  Gang Master (see film details)
Martial Arts / Action/Adventure
Phenomenal!!! This movie is a hidden, underrated classic that I insist people to have in their collection; it's unlike any other martial arts movie with the same old snake, crane, Wing Chun, and tiger style. This movie brought different martial arts techniques; in addition, this movie offers an amazing story.
| | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! | | AGREE? | READER COMMENTS | AUTHOR | | N | The movie was all right but nothing to get out of your seat about. Man, you rate films funny. | Rambo part 5 please |

| | | |  My Lucky Stars [Dutch Special Edition] (see film details)
Action/Adventure / Comedy
This movie is so slow, but there is a nice ending to wait for. Not so bad!
| | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! | | AGREE? | READER COMMENTS | AUTHOR | | N | The film went over-budget and it resulted in a very zany story & some bad action sequences. The film is not good just because the last 10 minutes is exciting. For a reviewer 2 rate a movie like this w/ 3 stars is inaccurate & a disgrace 2 real true fans | Ashley | | N | The movie was all right- it has a lot of goofiness to it, but just beacuse the ending delivers does not mean to give it 3 stars- You rate funny. | Rambo part 5 please | | Y | The ending is very good for 3 stars. | Black Belt Ninja | | N | The whole movie was crazy-bad, a last action scene does not save a movie for being 3 stars | KungfuManiac | | Y | I agree with you on this. My Lucky Stars is a mixed bag of peanuts. It has a lot of zany & odd moments but the fights at the end saved it from being trash. I agree it's not so bad at all. | JV47842 |

Martial Arts / Action/Adventure
WOW! I was pleasantly surprised. I've learned about the history in an Asian course I was taking, and I must say that most of this movie is accurate. But what made this movie 5 stars (in my opinion) is the martial arts. Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The first 45 minutes of the movie was very slow, I must admit, but after that--man!
| | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! | | AGREE? | READER COMMENTS | AUTHOR | | N | it was all right, I give it 4 and half because the beginning was slow. But it was enjoyable. | Rambo part 5 please |

| | | |  Revenge Of The Shaolin Master [PanMedia] (see film details)
Martial Arts / Action/Adventure
According to other reviews, I must say (in my own opinion) this is a classic. I've never seen anyone get their butts kicked over a bag of rice like this. Wow! The ambiance of this film is pretty gloomy, but the fighting scenes (and there are lots) gives it this weird dichotomy of entertainment. Not to be missed for all kung fu fans.
| | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! | | AGREE? | READER COMMENTS | AUTHOR | | N | Never seen anyone get theor butts kicked for a bag of rice...ya need to watch more fu movies, because it sounds like ya don't know what your saying. | Rambo part 5 please |

| | | |  The Brave Archer And His Mate (see film details)
Martial Arts / Action/Adventure
I am confused, but there are some nice fight scenes to watch, especially the ones with the frog style. Anyway, I believe that they should of left it at part three and called it a masterpiece trilogy. But NO, they have to mess it all up with this! The story is all over the place and I am not kidding. Buy at your own risk.
| | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! | | AGREE? | READER COMMENTS | AUTHOR | | N | The film is for the true fans. | Ashley | | N | It wasn't that bad- it's for the fans | Rambo part 5 please | | Y | I actually agree with this review- your points are all right. | Black Belt Ninja | | Y | Too generous of a review. As with the rest of the movies, this is too confusing and we get the grating, annoying Fu Sheng instead of the Fu Sheng of "Heaven and Hell" and "Chinatown Kid." | MS10197 |

| | | |  Hand Of Death [1973] [5-Movie Set] (see film details)
Martial Arts / Action/Adventure
Not so bad. The fight scene were okay--halfway decent--but most of all, the flying and jumping made it less believable. Other than that, it was a pretty good movie.
