  Fight For Tomorrow

  4.0
  Action, Crime, Drama  •  Hong Kong

  ‘Fight for Tomorrow’ is a fine Hong Kong drama with occasional smatterings of action and I would recommend seeking it out.

  Dragon Fire

  3.0
  Action, Drama, Martial Arts, Sci-Fi  •  USA

  Utilising the minimum of sets and boasting a roster of national and world kickboxing champions as fighters, ‘Dragon Fire’ gets straight to business, offering oodles of 90s American-based kickboxing action.

  Mission Kiss And Kill

  3.5
  Action, Comedy, Drama, Martial Arts  •  Hong Kong

  ‘Mission Kiss and Kill’ rewards patience with even the fight choreography getting better as the story continues, a duel on empty wine jars being an obvious highlight.

  The Manchu Boxer

  3.0
  Action, Drama, Martial Arts  •  Hong Kong, South Korea

  A rather by-the-numbers old school Golden Harvest produced fight flick, ‘The Manchu Boxer’ is nevertheless worth a watch thanks to some decent martial arts action and a fun bad guy role for Sammo Hung.

  Yojimbo

  5.0
  Action, Drama, Thriller  •  Japan

  From the opening frames to the triumphant ending, every frame in this work of sublime cinema is an unbridled joy, an ingenious mixture of excitement, character and dry humour.

  The Old Woman With The Knife

  4.0
  Action, Crime, Drama, Thriller  •  South Korea

  ‘The Old Woman with the Knife’ is a worthy adaptation fuelled by a dark tone, punishing action, and a fantastic lead performance from Lee Hye-Young.
