  Us And Them

  3.5
  Drama, Romance  •  China

  The pacing is just right, the locations are skilfully used and Liu has taken a deceptively simple story and given it layers of interest beneath.

  Redcon-1

  3.0
  Action, Horror, Martial Arts, Thriller  •  UK

  Mixing the zombie, martial arts and men-on-a-mission genres, ‘Redcon-1’ adopts a take no prisoners approach and rarely lets up over its almost 2 hour run time.

  The Way Home

  4.0
  Drama, Family  •  South Korea

  A truly beautiful tale of personal growth and self-discovery that is more than perfectly in tune with many Asian ideals of family and the implicit importance of such.

  The Unity Of Heroes

  2.0
  Action, Drama, Martial Arts  •  China

  ‘The Unity of Heroes’ is a slipshod update of the Wong Fei Hong myth, a film wholly lacking in not only chemistry but also everything else that made the Tsui Hark chapters so influential.

  Black Water

  3.0
  Action, Drama, Thriller  •  USA

  Low budget, straight-forward, though with a couple of unexpected twists and turns, this was a fun and surprisingly action packed ride.

  Red Eye

  3.0
  Horror  •  South Korea

  A modest South Korean ghost story, albeit one that retains vestigial hints of promise that only serve to indicate how great it could have been.
