  Keep Calm And Be A Superstar

  3.0
  Action, Comedy  •  China, Hong Kong

  There are some genuinely witty moments in there and they prove the perfect covering for the many more that end with a whimper.

  A.f.r.i.k.a

  3.5
  Action, Comedy, Drama  •  South Korea

  ‘A.f.r.i.k.a’ isn’t rocket science, but if you like a good laugh and are conversant in the basics of Korean pop-culture and society, it should prove an enjoyable treat, nonetheless.

  The Night Comes For Us

  4.0
  Action, Crime, Martial Arts, Thriller  •  Indonesia

  If one is not a fan of bloody carnage, one may want to stay clear but for fans of full throttle Indonesian action then ‘The Night Comes for Us’ should surely sate the most ardent fan.

  Ring Of Fire III: Lion Strike

  2.0
  Action, Martial Arts  •  USA

  All of the fun confrontations against wacky opponents are noticeably absent, and the film feels like a much more run-of-the-mill low budget actioner.

  Wrath Of Silence

  3.5
  Crime, Drama, Mystery, Thriller  •  China

  ‘Wrath of Silence’ builds up well after a slow start and, while not quite bringing the viewer to the edge of their seat, evolves into a more than decent mixture of arthouse aesthetics and nuts-and-bolts action.

  Unlucky Stars

  4.0
  Action, Adventure, Comedy, Martial Arts, Thriller  •  USA

  A glorious tribute to the Hong Kong action films of the 80s and 90s, ‘Unlucky Stars’ is a hoot and a cracking martial arts film to boot.
