• Beloved Son Of God

    Feb 22, 2015

    If you can ignore some of its minor quirks, ‘Beloved Son of God’ is highly recommended viewing thanks to the wonderful and touching performances from Cheng, Wu Ma and Cheung.

  • Bomb Disposal Officer: Baby Bomb

    Jan 31, 2023

    The comedy is hit-and-miss and as it takes up the majority of the running time, it slows the pace right down after a promising start.

    Starts out as a fairly happy-go-lucky comedy but eventually culminates in an all action finale that is surprisingly violent for a film of this ilk.

  • Road Warriors

    Jun 16, 2023

    This isn’t a masterpiece of the genre by any stretch, but it’s a more than adequate drama with some well shot chase scenes.

  • Rumble In The Bronx

    May 19, 2015

    The action is far superior to that of any American made film on ten times the budget, and shows Chan at his best shortly after the excellent ‘Drunken Master 2’.
