• Big Brother

    Apr 12, 2019

    ‘Big Brother’ is a wasted opportunity. It is enjoyable enough for its duration, but every scene seems like it’s been pinched from the genre book written with Dead Poets’ Society strokes.

  • Changing Partner

    Feb 28, 2015

    ‘Changing Partner’ has enough moments of genuine amusement to help paper over the cracks.

  • Her Fatal Ways

    Mar 23, 2015

    Widely seen as Carol Cheng’s finest hour, ‘Her Fatal Ways’ manages to combine a number of qualities to create a very satisfying experience.

  • Her Fatal Ways II

    Mar 23, 2015

    It’s important to remember that this is nothing out of the ordinary though and, if you didn’t enjoy the original, it’s unlikely that you’ll enjoy this weaker sequel.

  • Her Fatal Ways III

    Mar 23, 2015

    The themes may have dated, but the opportunity to see Cheng and her three able co-stars play off each other is not to be passed up.

  • Hero Of The Beggars

    Mar 24, 2015

    ‘Hero Of The Beggars’ is not a patch on ‘Security Unlimited’ or the many other classic Michael Hui hits, but it still achieves its simple edict of entertaining the audience.

  • I Love Hong Kong

    Mar 27, 2015

    ‘I Love Hong Kong’ doesn’t steer too far away from the usual New Year hi-jinks – it is an entertaining 2011 release, but will probably not be remembered come 2012.

  • Paper Marriage

    May 11, 2015

    Although Sammo and Maggie rarely create any convincing chemistry, the film contains enough action and laughs to entertain most Hong Kong fans.

  • Pom Pom And Hot Hot

    May 13, 2015

    ‘Pom Pom And Hot Hot’ is a film where a fast forward button is a necessity. Too much of the film is bogged down in very tired routines that drastically slow down the pace.

  • Star Runner

    Jun 1, 2015

    This leans more towards the quick-cut close ups of more recent Hollywood efforts. Most of the fights are also glossed over as short “highlights” rather than letting us see the full action.

  • Truant Hero

    Jun 16, 2015

    There is actually some entertainment to be derived from ‘Truant Hero’ and it exists on its own strengths rather than being completely reliant on its influences.

  • Twin Dragons

    Jun 18, 2015

    In truth, this is not a great movie, with nothing new added to the age old “separated brothers” story and some bad special effects.
