  • Curry And Pepper

    Mar 4, 2015

    The film is a genuinely well-made buddy cop outing that has two great leading performances and a healthy helping of Hong Kong-styled heroic bloodshed.

  • My Father Is A Hero

    May 3, 2015

    ‘My Father Is A Hero’ provides some adrenalin pumping set-pieces, notably a classic scene where Li takes on a dozen of the villain’s lackies with a pair of tonfa.

  • One-Armed Boxer

    May 29, 2021

  • Shaolin Ex-Monk

    May 23, 2015

    Liu lights up the screen with his explosive bootwork while Jack Long and the endearing Blacky Ko provide extra physical presence.

  • The Boxer’s Adventure

    Feb 26, 2015
