  All U Need Is Love

  3.0
  Comedy, Drama  •  Hong Kong

  It has to be admitted that there are some decent moments within the film and it certainly brings more smiles to the face than many a Chinese New Year comedy of the past.

  Blade Of The Immortal

  4.0
  Action, Chanbara, Drama, Fantasy  •  Japan

  Billed as Takashi Miike’s 100th film at the time of release, ‘Blade of the Immortal’ sees the enfant terrible deliver one of his best films of recent: both violently excessive and beautifully crafted.

  Breakout Brothers

  4.0
  Action, Comedy, Crime, Drama  •  Hong Kong

  This is a surprisingly exciting and often blackly comic thriller that borrows from ‘Prison on Fire’ but does so with real skill.

  Silat Warriors: Deed Of Death

  3.0
  Action, Martial Arts  •  Malaysia

  A mixed bag unfortunately but if you stick with it there is some incredible fight action come the second half which is a great showcase for some very gifted screen fighters.

  Keep Running

  4.0
  Documentary, Sport  •  China

  It’s hard not to come away from ‘Keep Running’ with a feeling of awe for those involved, but also a sense that we’ve come to really get to know the participants by the end.

  Raging Fire

  4.0
  Action, Crime, Martial Arts, Thriller  •  China, Hong Kong

  A bit of ‘Heat’ mixed with Chan’s own ‘Invisible Target’, ‘Raging Fire’ hits hard in both the action and drama, the much-missed director delivering one of his finest.
