  Moscow Mission

  3.5
  Action, Crime, Drama, Thriller  •  China

  Bookended by two outstanding train-based action sequences, ‘Moscow Mission’ starts with a bang before settling into a more standard, yet still entertaining, police procedural.

  Crystal Fortune Run

  3.0
  Action, Crime, Fantasy, Sci-Fi  •  Hong Kong

  Despite its strengths and a bit of nostalgia for those of us who remember that early-90s aesthetic, ‘Crystal Fortune Run’ is less than the sum of its parts.

  A Man Called Tiger

  3.0
  Action, Adventure, Crime, Martial Arts  •  Hong Kong

  Not the best star or director have done but an entertaining slice of super cool 70s style nevertheless and certainly entertaining once Wang Yu erupts into action.

  A Light Never Goes Out

  4.5
  Drama  •  Hong Kong

  A beautifully shot portrait of grief, redemption and family, ‘A Light Never Goes Out’ deserves the plaudits it is receiving and much more.

• 

  The Valiant Ones

  4.0
  Action, Drama, History, Martial Arts, Wuxia  •  Hong Kong, Taiwan

  ‘The Valiant Ones’ really does deliver on its promise of a group of gifted fighters going after a never-ending swarm of rampaging pirates and fighting them all to the death.

  The Crippled Masters

  3.0
  Action, Drama, Martial Arts  •  Hong Kong, Taiwan

  Few genre films have achieved the cult status that ‘The Crippled Masters’ has and, thanks to a lovely remastered release from Film Masters, it can finally reach a wider audience.
