Mae Bae. Makala (Mamee Napakpapha Nakprasitte) is a very hot tour guide, but she lives with a really jealous King Cobra that bites at the slightest provocation. Chanachom (Akara Amarttayakul) is a handsome and successful businessman, recently returned from overseas, married with... » MORE

1:99. An anthology of eleven short films designed to give Hong Kong people hope during the SARS crisis. But the best all the talent in Hong Kong can produce ends up being about as uplifting as a Claritin commercial, with each... » MORE

20:30:40. The title refers to the amount of years that seems to pass while waiting for the movie to end. Basically the same story as Sex and the Beauties, only instead of thinking it's a comedy, this movie thinks it's an... » MORE

6 AM. The corpse isn't even cold yet but here's a parody/knock off of Jiang Hu. Steven Cheung and Kenny Kwan are Noodle and Bowl respectively, two lazy students who stumble into a triad lottery where the unlucky winner will have to... » MORE

Ab Kya Hoga. Ram (Shatrughan Sinha) is a highly successful businessman with an international company (at least we assume as much, given his luxurious mansion and his awesome office with a map of the world behind it). A trip to his friend Rajesh's... » MORE

Angel Cop: Final Crisis. If you asked who you had to sleep with to get a decent part in a Hong Kong film, the answer is most decidedly not Jackie Chan, since Elaine Ng, recent mother of his illegitimate child, ended up in this... » MORE

Anna in Kung Fu Land. Miriam Yeung stars as the daughter of an ex-Shaolin Monk, who comes to Hong Kong to win a martial arts championship and prove her father's righteousness. Ekin Cheng is the organizer of the tournament. It's love at first sight, only... » MORE

Armageddon. Director Gordon Chan pulled out all the stops on this one, creating a big budget, high concept snooze-fest that should have been much better than it is. Perhaps he should have left a few of the stops in. It might... » MORE

Attractive One, The. These cookie cutter romances deserve a cookie cutter response. Perhaps I should review them using a standard template. Writer/Director Matt Chow shovels up more of the same for a tired, bored audience.... » MORE

Autumn Diary, An. There are a lot of points to recommend this film, if only it didn't just boil down to the same tired, formulaic tripe that we've been served so many times before. Nicola Cheung is a spoiled rich girl who has... » MORE

Beast of Tutor. A tutor (Ng Ting) rapes his students, and Sophie Ngan is the cop that brings him in and forces his confession. The story is told in flashback. He started out just fantasizing, but then his young tutee caught him whacking... » MORE

Black Mask vs. Gambling Mastermind. I have a very high tolerance for garbage. So it comes as something of a surprise that I quite simply could not finish watching BLACK MASK VS. GAMBLING MASTERMIND: not after shutting it off and returning to it a few... » MORE

Blood of Fu Manchu, The (aka Kiss and Kill). Fu Manchu meets Pancho Villa, sort of, in this, the unspeakably bad yet strangely compelling fourth outing for Christopher Lee as Fu Manchu. Jess Franco directs, in his own inimitable style.... » MORE

Bloody Cops. Bloody awful, more like. Veteran actor Roy Cheung, who can often turn in memorable and exciting supporting performances, is dull as white toast as the star in this mystery about a murdered teacher stuffed in a box. Roy Cheung is... » MORE

Boxing King, The. Fan Siu Wong plays a dim witted construction worker who knows how to fight. He gets into boxing, and gets his brains bashed out. This doesn't make him smarter, but neither does it have any other noticable effect, other than... » MORE

Boy Met Girl. Not a bad story, for once, with occassionally complex emotional relationships. But for some reason it was shot as a Category III movie, despite the fact that none of the main characters reveal anything. So you have a movie which... » MORE

Call-Girls, The. Who knew that 2008 would be the year that Hong Kong learned, in great detail, Edison Chen's sexual proclivities? Oral sex, thankfully off of the front pages of newspapers ever since Bill Clinton left the White House, shot up and... » MORE

Castle of Fu Manchu, The. I can't believe I watched the whole thing. The fifth and last Christoper Lee Fu Manchu film, driving the final nail into the series coffin, although it felt more like it was being driven through my skull. ... » MORE

China's Next Top Princess. The title promised a sort of parody of the "Next Top Model"-type reality TV shows, a thin subject for parody as the reality shows themselves are already parodies of themselves. It doesn't matter, anyway, as the movie itself is totally... » MORE

Chinese Orthopedist and the Spice Girls. Another shot on video cheapie from Small Siu and B&S Creative Films Workshop, and not even the presence of mid-level talent like Cecilia Yip, Kenny B, and Shing Fui On can save it. Four girls live it up and get... » MORE

Chiseen. Cut rate quickimart version of JACKASS. As if the world needs such a thing. Apparently these short clips ran on MTV Asia, and have been compiled into a DVD by Taiseng for sale in the U.S. It does not appear... » MORE

Chocolate: Deep Dark Secrets. Who is Kaiser Sosei? Er, no wait, this time it's "who is Murtaza Arzai?" But really, now, we're just quibbling on details. This is the kind of recycled garbage that writers about Indian cinema always point to to underscore their... » MORE

Cocktail. Candy (Candy Lo) owns the bar "Half-Mortal" (or Heaven/Hell, depending on whether you believe the subtitles or read the sign out front). Her employees, Stella (Race Wong) and Paul (Endy Chow), serve drinks at the bar to a seemingly... » MORE

Cohabitation. A contemporary social drama about lovers (Lin Chen-Chi and Tsung Hua) who live together before getting married. Scandalous! Or presumably, it was more so at the time. He's a writer of fiction columns in the newspaper, she ran away from... » MORE

Computer Superman aka Yod Manut Computer. THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN, Thai-style. And no, I don't mean he is a katoey. But, he does have a horn growing out of his butt. How to explain? I think I'd better start over from the beginning.... » MORE

Conman 2002. Nick Cheung stars as the unluckiest man alive. When he starts dating the sister of a top gambler (Stephen Fung), the gambler decides to use his bad luck to make him his student. Some moments are mildly amusing but gambling... » MORE

Conmen in Vegas. Never has a gambling movie contained so little actual gambling. But there is some poo shaped like Mickey Mouse, if that's any consolation. ... » MORE

Cop Shop Babes. Eason Chan is pretty entertaining sometimes as the slob in a buddy picture, where the other buddy is a straight man, or at least more handsome. The mistake here, is pairing him with Jerry Lamb, who is even worse. The... » MORE

Cop Unbowed. Lam (Alex Fong) and Fung (Michael Tse) were best of pals, until Fung accidentally kills the girlfriend of Mr. Dick (Eddy Ko), the mob boss. Fung blames it on Lam, which cuts their friendship short prematurely, and permanently, as Lam... » MORE

Crazy Scum Dicky's Journal. Well, I'm not quite sure who Dicky was, nor am I sure why he is supposed to be crazy scum. The movie concerns an advertising agency headed by a sex crazed boss (Grace Lam), and an undersexed employee (Samuel Leung... » MORE

Cream Soda & Milk. It starts out promising enough, with a divorce separating a brother Ding Dong (Yen Chiu-hua) from his sister Ding Ling (Lee Yin Yin). Dad, raising Ding Dong solo, promises to do well, and that they'll be together like Cream Soda... » MORE

Crime of Beast II. Category III sex kittens Grace Lam and Sophia Ngan star, but, no doubt due to costs, only one gets naked. ... » MORE

Crying Fiddle. What a sad fiddle. But why? Why is this fiddle crying? Perhaps, if you sit down and watch CRYING FIDDLE, you will learn why. Perhaps, the fiddle cries because the movie made about it was shot cheaply on digital video... » MORE

Cyber Cafe. When an IT professional (Ng Ting) loses his job, he decides to start a cyber cafe, thinking his background would be perfect. Little does he know that the popular cyber cafes are more like cyber brothels, and the computers have... » MORE

D7: Dangerous Duty. For a movie supposedly starring Max Mok Siu-Chung, there is surprisingly little of him in it. In fact, he dies in the opening scene. He does reappear later though: in a flashback repeating the first scene, but this time in... » MORE

Danger Zone. The young girls who became cops in BRUSH UP MY SISTERS are back, in a digital video production better than the original, but saddled with a much less evocative title. This time around, the girls (Teresa Mak, Jade Leung, Pinky... » MORE

Dare Ya!. A documentary about the Cantonese hip-hop group LMF (LazyMuthaFuckahs, for the uninitiated). Bandmember talking heads tell us why they love getting high and playing video games while the documentary utterly fails to provide any context as to why we should... » MORE

Dry Wood, Fierce Fire. Miriam Yeung and Louis Koo turn on the charm in this romantic comedy, to no noticable effect. About twenty minutes into the picture, the subtitles drop off of the DVD. Nothing I had seen thus far made it look like... » MORE

Dumbly Agent. Kent Cheng heads up the cast in this story of a security agency run by a woman being driven out of business by the man who heads up the competing agency. But the dedication and loyalty of the guards, including... » MORE

Dummy Mommy without a Baby. It's not that I hated this light situation comedy about a woman who pretends to be pregnant in order to keep her job, it's just that there isn't anything special about it. I remember a time when Hong Kong comedies... » MORE

End of the Stumer, The. What the hell is a Stumer? Did they mean the End of the Summer? The Stunner? The Stoner? The Stammerer? No, turns out they really sort of mean "The Stumer," defined as a forgery or I suppose a forger. This... » MORE

Fall In Love Too Easily. Why is it there are so many masturbation scenes in independent productions? Perhaps because the masturbatory nature of the entire enterprise is so much more readily apparent. In mainstream cinema, masturbation is played strictly for comedy. In the indys, it... » MORE

Fashionoholic. Shot on video. A candidate for the worst Hong Kong video I have ever seen. A woman gets a job at a clothing store, and has an affair with the owners husband. But who cares about the plot? It's a... » MORE

Final Detention. Thai movies explore every lowbrow genre of film, so when I saw a Thai Women-in-Prison film, how could I resist? Maybe I could have resisted by recalling Thailand's draconian censorship laws. Another good way would have been to recall that... » MORE

Final Winner. Jackie Lui is a mean, tough, unscrupulous triad baddie, Michael Tse is a nice righteous one. He and his brothers form the smallest, wimpiest triad gang I've ever seen, their elder brother teaches them forbearance instead of action, and the... » MORE

Finale in Blood. A radio announcer (Lawrence Cheng) finds an umbrella that contains the spirit of a dead girl (Ruth Winona Tao). Not quite what I expected from the title. He gets the spirit on the air where she tells her love story,... » MORE

Haunted School. The story begins with a 'Cryptkeeper' type narrator (a hopping vampire), introducing the tale. Lots of paper flutters everywhere, there's lightning and thunder, and the camera zooms and floats and turns all over the place. Spooky music plays. And then... » MORE

He Lives by Night. Po-Chih Leong's film JUMPING ASH (1976, HK) is often mentioned as the first, the earliest example of Hong Kong's "New Wave." It is spoken of reverently, and it's a film I've long wanted to see. I still want to see... » MORE

Heat Team. Completely ludicrous buddy cop picture that tries to combine serious action with completely unrealistic police procedures and behavior. Eason Chan is the slovenly cop who gets all the chicks, while Aaron Kwok is the uptight cop who is slightly dim,... » MORE

Himalaya Singh. Before seeing HIMALAYA SINGH, all I heard about was how awful Lau Ching-Wan was. After seeing the movie myself, I discover there is a lot more to the movie, but all of it, ALL OF IT, is overshadowed by the... » MORE

Hong Kong Night Guide. Hilariously crude pseudo documentary about brothels, massage parlours, and naked women. It's a trashy movie version of a trashy, but very successful, magazine which rates all the sex shops in Hong Kong. The founders of the magazine would later be... » MORE

House of Devil Evil Sledge. Behind the great title lurks a good contender for the worst Hong Kong movie ever. Shot on video without style, and populated by non-actors, HOUSE OF DEVIL EVIL SLEDGE is certainly almost as low as you can go. ... » MORE

House of Mad Souls, A. To forget her ex-boyfriend Man, Jitty (Cindy Sirinya Berbridge) moves out of the city and into the suburbs. But wait -- it's even more horrible than that! While she's there, she keeps getting haunted by a little boy. From there,... » MORE

Hurt. Johnny Cash sings, on his last album, "I hurt myself today, to see if I still feel; I focus on the pain, the only thing that's real." I can now relate, having subjected myself to HURT. An anthology film based... » MORE

I Want to Get Married. Regular TROUBLESOME NIGHT director Lam Wai-Yin steps up a notch with this romance about a young rich man (Ken Wong) who falls in love with a fishmonger (Kristy Yang) because she looks like his deceased fiance. Sam Lee is the... » MORE

If U Care. Eason Chan is a complete dick who gets into a car accident, which gives him magical powers to empathize with whomever he touches with his hand. All this empathy, along with the sudden appearance of his childhood sweetheart Gillian Cheung,... » MORE

Immortal Enemy. Blood sucking vampires, immortal evil, a Wizard-like shaman, a ring of power, and a host of shuffling zombies -- all rendered with cheesy special effects, and a plot that shambles forward like a half-resuscitated corpse.... » MORE

Internet Disaster. Released in 2003. So why does it look like it was filmed in 1995? No matter. At least it wasn't shot using digital video. A housewife (Vivien Chen) is married to a wealthy, attractive, but older and always busy husband... » MORE

Invincible, The. Fan Siu-Wong is "The Invincible." I guess. Though he talks about entering a martial arts contest and winning the gold medal to prove his strength to his missing father, who left before he was born, we never actually see him... » MORE

Irresistible Piggies. While part of the appeal of HK movies is their often insensitive nature, being politically incorrect is not enough to make a successful picture. Written and produced by Wong Jing, the avatar of adolescence, Irresistible Piggies concerns four homely women... » MORE

Jungle Ki Nagin. The Snake Goddess genre hits rock bottom with this regional production. Anjali is a chubby girl who keeps hearing voices and seeing snakes, while her husband Rahul (Amit Pachori), a beefy guy stuffed into an overly tight shirt, tries consoling... » MORE

Killer 2. Odd to have a sequel to a film that was really quite modest, and not particularly well regarded or even well known. No, this isn't a sequel to the world famous THE KILLER (John Woo, 1989, HK), starring Chow Yun-Fat.... » MORE

Killing Skill. Mark Cheng, Lily Chung, Law Ka Ying These days, low budget filmmakers who still use film apparently have to shoot in the Phillippines to cover costs. Lily Chung is a "guitar killer", determined to kill all the drug traffikers in... » MORE

Leaving Me, Loving You. I imagine when making the film there was a sleeping baby in the next room and no one was allowed to speak above a whisper. The director, Wilson Yip, must have been on so much Vicodin that he didn't realize... » MORE

Lion Roars, The. Louis Koo plays an ineffectual scholar poet, the classic Chinese male hero archetype. Cecilia Cheung is a super-strong woman. Neither can find a suitable mate until fate throws them together and they marry. A nice premise completely underminded by a... » MORE

Love Undercover. I like Daniel Wu, and even here, when he's completely on autopilot, he retains some charm. Miriam Yeung, however, continues to confuse me by starring in movies without having any charm or ability. She mugs for the camera for nearly... » MORE

Love Undercover 3. Miriam Yeung and Daniel Wu didn't come back for the third entry of the LOVE UNDERCOVER franchise, so why should we? Fiona Sit is the Miriam Yeung stand-in, which is basically all she does, unable to bring anything different to... » MORE

Maid from Heaven, A. The back of the DVD states that it "took two directors, three assistant directors, and four cinematographers to capture the remarkable epic..." which seems hard to believe considering that all together about all they did was set up a camera... » MORE

Mantis Combat. I feel like I've seen hundreds of nondescript, low budget kung fu movies like this one. Usually, I don't review them -- I have nothing to say, really. I am not a practicioner of martial arts, so commenting on the... » MORE

Marriage with a Fool. A new record for romantic comedies, the loving piggyback ride occurs within only the first ten minutes. I swear, Robert Crumb would love watching Hong Kong movies. Wah (Alex Fong Lik-Sun) and Bobo (Stephy Tang, from the girl band Cookies)... » MORE

Master Q: Incredible Pet Detective. The beloved character Master Q returns in a full length animated movie. Like many Hong Kong comedies, it's a creative pastiche of Hollywood ideas, including Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and the Matrix, complete with a "bullet time" parody. The story... » MORE

Maybe It's Love. Maybe it's love, but it looks a whole lot more like deceptive marketing. The sexy, sweaty, Cherie Chung in a nightgown on the front cover and bed scenes on the back give way in the movie itself to a quiet... » MORE

Medallion, The. Jackie Chan is an international action hero. But sometimes, his movies look like they were made for someone who desperately wants to be an international action hero, but doesn't know how to go about it. This movie tries so hard... » MORE

Miracle Box, The. Within the first ten minutes, I've learned that a rainbow is actually a full circle, half on earth and half in heaven; and if you write all your troubles on a piece of paper and put it in a box,... » MORE

Miss Du Shi Niang. Michele Reis is a prostitute looking for love, Daniel Wu the object of her affection. The scenes of the brothel, which includes modern song & dance numbers, are obviously inspired by MOULIN ROUGE, a movie so much more inventive with... » MORE

Money Kills. A group of dimly intelligent provincial types come across a dead body and a big bag of money, and decide to keep the bag of money. There's Ken Wong, the "smart" one, whose business has failed and sort of wants... » MORE

Mong Tak Cho 2: Snake Goblin. Because there were so many unanswered questions after the first one. A terrible, shot on video Cat-III softcore film featuring the cast that is usually the second string in these things as the stars. Chow Ka Yu is the Goblin... » MORE

Mong Tak Cho: Virgin Power. Direct to video sleaze about a monk with special sex power having a sex competition with a woman. Shot on video, artistically barren, and without a moment of eroticism, this is Category III filmmaking at its lowest point. Porn actors... » MORE

Mr. 3 Minutes. Ronald Cheng has the same combo of manic comedy and Bruce Lee worship that made Stephen Chow's career such a smashing success. But if Cheng keeps making middle of the road romances like this, his career will start heading in... » MORE

My Baby Shot Me Down. Looking for some female vengeance in this movie whose title was obviously inspired by the KILL BILL soundtrack? Not really here. Instead it's the story of an actor turned serial killer -- as we all have long suspected, there's really... » MORE

My Horny Girlfriend. Grace Lam fans, rejoyce. She disrobes early and often, and, unusual for an erotic Hong Kong film, some of the sex scenes are actually intense and erotic. The plot, on the other hand, is disposable. ... » MORE

My Sweetie. Hong Kong DJ Sammy Leung was pretty funny as an idiotic, child-like model in this year's Ronald Cheng megahit Supermodel. But I was little put off by his starring role here, as an idiotic, child-like shampoo company office worker. Since... » MORE

My Wife is 18. When did Hong Kong comedies suddenly start to resemble the Carol Burnett Show? MY WIFE IS 18 is only one of many comedies that think comedy is better if the actors are laughing at themselves, too. Unfortunately, when that happens,... » MORE

Mysterious Murder, A. When Japan remade the Korean black comedy THE QUIET FAMILY, about a family that opens an ill-fated inn at which all most of their guests end up dead, Takashi Miike directed and the result was the insane THE HAPPINESS OF... » MORE

Naag Devi. A Telugu version of Rajkumar Kohli's 1976 film Nagin, from 2002. You might think the film would benefit from the advances in film production in the 26 years that separate the two films, but instead it achieves a quality in... » MORE

Naked Poison 2. A highlight of Category III sleaze last year was most certainly the darkly nasty NAKED POISON. This is a sequel in name only, but does star the most talented girls from the previous picture, once again taking off all of... » MORE

Night Club on Fire. It only takes about five minutes of watching this garbage that you wish the night club really does catch fire, killing everyone inside. Alas, no, instead it's a drama about the girls of Golden Pond nightclub, with hearts of gold... » MORE

Nightmare from Snake. Where there's a will, there's a way, to get drug smuggling into any plot. Reminiscent of the Taiwanese hopping vampire film KUNG FU VAMPIRE BUSTER, in which a group of men are disguised as hopping vampires as a way to... » MORE

Nine Girls and a Ghost. The hot new nine member girl band "Cookies" get their movie debut in this rather mundane story of a ghost (Edison Chen) who helps the girls in school while they help him discover his identity. Some really poor CGI enhanced... » MORE

Ninja Dragon, The. In modern day Japan, Ninja heroes defend a high school girl from men who bite people's faces off and aliens from outerspace. ... » MORE

Ode to Gallantry. With a title like this, it can only be a Chang Cheh film. When it comes right down to it, ALL his films are odes to gallantry. But this movie confounds expectations by being very little about gallantry at all,... » MORE

Our Dream Car. A lovesong to capitalism, and the pinnacle of human desire: the car. It will spice up your life! Make you feel rich! Improve your sex life! Make you a movie star! Yes, all this -- and more! -- can be... » MORE

Point of No Return. There are about a dozen Hong Kong films titled POINT OF NO RETURN. This is the worst. A direct to video production. Jackie Lui is a cop who enlists Grace Lam to work for him as an undercover to avoid... » MORE

Police Case. Boring shot on video production starring Elle Choi as a police secretary who sits around bored at her job all day while beat cop Ken Wong is out all day doing his rounds. Wong appears to be the only cop... » MORE

Prison on Fire - Plaintive Destiny. Lam Suet takes center stage as a man sent to prison for raping and killing his own daughter. But then, after being subjected to 'penis dragging' and various other abuses by the other inmates, he forces them to listen to... » MORE

Prison on Fire - Preacher. Utilizing the same three prison sets used in TROUBLESOME NIGHT 17 (a cafeteria that doubles as a visiting room, solitary cells, and a group cell), B&S CREATIVE FILM WORKS whips off another shot on video cheapie leaning on the PRISON... » MORE

Prison on Fire: Life Sentence. Of all the B&S Film Workshop franchises, the PRISON ON FIRE films are consistently the best. This one is about a man who gets life in prison because he stood up to the small time hoods who were threatening his... » MORE

Professional, The. An impotent man (Keung Hiu-Man) goes to see a happy, but very professional, prostitute. She gets naked, dances around, but nothing works until eventually, they fall in love. Every scene cuts to a dripping tap at the end to symbolize... » MORE

Protege de la Rose Noire. How can a film star the charismatic, popular, and peppy Twins (Charlene Choi and Gillian Cheung), be directed by action star Donnie Yen, concern costumed crimefighting against a sexy villainess and her hitwomen, combine action and comedy, and yet still... » MORE

Psychedelic Cop. This movie has become legendary for its low box office. After a week in the theater, it screened to exactly 10 people, giving it a worldwide standing as one of the poorest performing films of all time. You can joke... » MORE

Pyaasi Nagin. A complete rip off of the classic 1976 film Nagin. While it isn't quite scene-for-scene, a la Gus Van Sant's PSYCHO, it is pretty damn close. As if pretending otherwise, the movie opens with a disclaimer that "All the characters... » MORE

Return from the Other World. Another shameless grab for your immortal soul by Media Evangelism, who brought us last year's Ultimate Intelligence. This time around a gambler strikes a deal with the Devil, becomes a billionaire, but then hits bottom, and after attempting suicide, sees... » MORE

Sai Teri Maya. A devotional film praising the strength of Sai Baba and celebrating his glory, though you'd have to be pretty devout to overlook the flaws of this slow-moving, silly film that advertises itself as having "a lot of computer graphic scenes".... » MORE

Saint of Gamblers. Ng Man-Tat searches for a new gambling king in this sequel to All for the Winners. It should have been a wonderfully fun action-gambling Wong Jing extravaganza. ... » MORE

Sajan. SAJAN spends its first hour as a fairly typical Bollywood romance, then ends up a whodunnit in which a police inspector tries to untangle a murder that somehow manages to incriminate the entire cast. Rajni (Asha Perekh) is a young,... » MORE

Scaremonger. Sam Lee and Jerry Lamb star in this pathetic horror comedy about a couple writers looking for new stories, who encounter a woman who lures men to her home where they are eaten by her husband. The appearance of Jude... » MORE

Secret Society, The - Boss. Ng Chi Hung is a small time boss who had to leave Hong Kong, and can only wistfully look at it from across the border in Shenzhen. Probably it was a mistake to rape the drugged out young woman at... » MORE

Secret Society, The - The Best Hack. Continuing right where The Secret Society - Boss left off, with gang leader Ng Chi Hung on the lam in Shenzhen, and Lee Siu Kay living it up back in Hong Kong. Or at least, he should be, but his... » MORE

Set Up. One can only assume that the title of this disappointing film refers to the glaringly obvious, contrived, and totally illogical set up to the story. It's too bad, too, as director Billy Chung can usually deliver a satisfying genre film.... » MORE

Seven Days in Coffin. Mali was killed, drowned in the river. She flirted with lots of guys, so the cops have lots of suspects. And her girlfriend Pikul, devestated by Mali's death, is determined to get to the bottom of it. Oh, yes, and... » MORE

Sexy Playgirls. "My sister is dying of leukemia" is an odd way to start a film about sexy playgirls. In fact one might be forgiven for thinking that there has been some mixup at the plant; the wrong title pressed on to... » MORE

Shadow Mask. I was fully expecting to enjoy this low budget action fest. Cheng Pei-Pei is the villainous Red Goddess, sprung from jail by her gang, and intent on revenge for the man who put her there, Shadow Mask. Only thing is,... » MORE

Shaolin vs. Evil Dead. A new hopping vampire film primarily for the U.S. market, expressly designed to piggy-back on the appearance of Gordon Liu in KILL BILL. Presumably producers hoped that viewers of KILL BILL would be curious about Liu, and wonder about how... » MORE

Shopaholics, The. Wai Ka Fai's latest Lunar New Year comedy is neither very funny, nor very good. Yet, several layers below the suffocating artiface of the production, some basic truths struggle for air. There is a story to tell here, about our... » MORE

Sky of Love. A boring remake of the not-very-interesting-to-begin-with Korean film DITTO, which was itself heavily inspired by the better-than-both-of-them-but-still-not-very-good American film FREQUENCY. They all involve talking to someone from a different time via some kind of magical ham radio. This time, Gigi... » MORE

Source of Love, The. Shoddy Christian evangelism at its most desperate. A young man who stutters and is looked down on by his father redeems his family and teaches them the love of Jesus Christ. Others in his family yell hilarious comments like, "Quit... » MORE

Stolen Love. A young architect (Raymond Lam) gets hit by a car and cannot draw anymore unless he is near a mysterious girl (Rain Li) that he believes he has seen before, somehow. She finds him familiar as well, and both of... » MORE

Tajmahal. Indian DVDs are always full of surprises. This one delivered a subtitle-drop smackdown, after two hours of watching the grainy, washed out, scratched, occasionally green picture in desperate need of restoration, and following poorly timed subtitles that drifted as far... » MORE

Taste of Killing and Romance, A. Andy Lau and Anita Yuen are killers for hire who meet and fall in love while the cops, led by Waise Lee, try to hunt them down, and the people who hire and pay for their hits (Christine Ng and... » MORE

Tattooed She Killer. When Lin comes home to find her mom having wild sex with a gangster in the bedroom while her wheelchair bound father sits dejectedly in the living room, she runs away from home, gets raped and tattooed head to toe... » MORE

Teenage Gambler. Sort of a sequal to BLACK MASK v. GAMBLING MASTERMIND, as once again a chubby kid acts like a gambling master. Could be the same kid, thankfully I don't own the earlier film and have erased most of my memories... » MORE

Temptation. It's hard to resist the temptation of this Ocean Shores VCD, which claimed to be a Category III movie and had a ravishingly beautiful woman on the cover, clutching her pillow, her pouty lips open, eyes closed. Oh, but wait.... » MORE

There Is a Secret In My Soup. Based on a true story -- a bunch of punks kidnap a girl, torture her, rape her, kill her accidentally, then stuff her remains in a Hello Kitty doll. The Hello Kitty copyright owners were none to amused by all... » MORE

Thou Shall Not Commit. A cheap and nasty little film about a jealous man (Anthony Wong) who suspects his wife (Maggie Cheung) is sleeping with a younger man, and is willing to go to great lengths to prove it. A pawn in his game... » MORE

Three of a Kind. Michael Hui and Lau Ching-wan played opposite each other briefly earlier in the year in the Hui Brothers tribute film FANTASIA. Here Hui plays Dragon Lone, a famous kung fu novelist, who has suffered from writing block for 13 years,... » MORE

Time 4 Hope. The next time I see an autobiographical movie of someone's life, I sincerely hope they are either more interesting or just lie a lot. As it stands, this is the story of Yuen Kai-Chi, (played by Nick Cheung) an unlikable... » MORE

Troublesome Night 18. The series that won't lie down and die is now officially old enough to vote, or enlist in the army, but not yet responsible enough to drink alcohol (at least, such are the laws in the United States. If anyone... » MORE

Troublesome Night 19. By now the most interesting part about the series is wondering if they are going to get to 20. Now, they've got only one more to go. This time around, the cast takes a beach vacation and films it. Anita... » MORE

Troublesome Night 8. Simon Loui is Bud Pit, an out of work movie maker. He moves his family to the New Territories to save on the rent. So we put up dramatic non-scares like a crummy landlord, a barking dog, taoist prayer slips... » MORE

Twins Mission. I can't help it -- I like the Twins (Charlene Choi and Gillian Cheung), and have often found their performances enjoyable in the many Hong Kong films they have appeared in over the past half-dozen years. But alas, all good... » MORE

Two Individual Package Women. I miss Sharla Cheung Man, heroine of early nineties Stephen Chow films and one of my (admittedly many) international cinema crushes. She still works, though regular Hong Kong moviegoers would hardly know it. So it is with some pleasure that... » MORE

Ultimate Fight. Directed by Tony Leung Siu Hung, Chairman of the HK Stuntmen's Association. Starring Lau Kar Wing, the old Shaw Brothers action master, as a retired Jujitsu expert. I'm telling you all this so that you can be as profoundly disappointed... » MORE

Ultimate Intelligence. Good lord. Or should I say Lord, since this evangelical film is all about God's love. I wouldn't be surprised if they had priests at the exits during its theatrical run to baptize new converts. When a young man gets... » MORE

Ultimatum. This one starts promising with a nice CGI shot following a bullet across a restaurant, through an open flame, into a man's neck, out the back, and into the glass door behind him, which shatters. But it's a trick --... » MORE

Unarm 72 Hours. Shot on video production in which a veteran police officer (Danny Lee, as always) tries to capture some jewelry thieves right as he nears retirement. Only trouble is, they sock away the jewels, and one of the bastards (Lam Wai)... » MORE

Vampire Combat. Every hundred years or so the planets align and this evil demon guy can pop up and take over the world, provided he has the right sacrifice. A few hundred years ago, his plans were foiled by former disciples, and... » MORE

Vampire Controller. Here's a throwback to the old hopping vampire comedies of the eighties, which even tries to add a little hopping-vampire lore. Two sifus, two disciples, driving two different groups of corpses through the woods, stop at the same temple for... » MORE

Wedding or a Funeral, A. Sam Lee is about to get married, but that night, his beautiful fiance (Paulyn Sun) is abducted and he is forced to capture a series of ever more hardened criminals for the abductor or she will be killed. The movie,... » MORE

White Dragon. It's rare that I see a Hong Kong movie in the theater. But this one ran at the Gene Siskel Film Center in downtown Chicago, and I popped over after work this evening to catch it. The movie was shown... » MORE

Woman of the Night. Another anthology film, of the kind that Shaw Brothers made regularly when they couldn't come up with any story actually worth telling, but still needed to fill their theater chain. The three stories contained in this film all concern themselves... » MORE

Yah Nark. Another cheap, shot on video, Thai ghost film. But wait! It's in 3-D! And so, another regretful impulse buy is made, and there's nothing left to do but watch what is advertised as the first 3-D Thai movie ever.... » MORE

Young Ones, The aka Half Past 15 Years Old. Definitely not the hilarious British comedy series of the same name, this film follows the lives of four near sixteen year old girls as they cause trouble in school and have troubles at home. One is molested by her uncle,... » MORE
