Genre: Comedy

The cast is packed with the usual gallery of stars that one associates with a Sammo production and of course the action (when it happens) is expertly choreographed by the man himself.

‘Snake Deadly Act’ is a typical example of a good, but not great independent kung fu flick.

‘Snake In The Eagle’s Shadow’ gave Jackie his first chance to shine outside the reigns of Lo Wei, and under the expert guidance of Woo Ping and Ng See Yuen delivers a classic of the genre.

Those with a spare couple of hours and a penchant for attractive women shooting up enough plate glass to build a large greenhouse should rent this today.

A really entertaining ride that delivers thanks to a pacey script, genuine moments of amusement and enjoyable performances from everyone involved.

Hong Kong has always spliced genres together with aplomb, but this is an example of where things go wrong.

‘Speed Dating’ is a fast and funny short blast of action-comedy that nicely sets proceedings up for a potential full-length feature – which would be very welcome.

While far from perfect and lacking the polish that was applied to Chan’s later vehicles, ‘Spiritual Kung Fu’ is still a solid effort that has a distinctly old-school charm.

‘Spy Games’ is packed with 80s excess and ebullience, yet forgot to include the countless other elements that so many of its contemporaries included.

‘Spy Girl’ is broad, then at times subtle while also throwing together slapstick and satire in an interesting blend.

‘Still Human’ is everything that good Hong Kong cinema can be. It tells a good story without pomp, grounds it in reality and focuses on ordinary everyday folk.

It is a stain on the ‘Street Fighter’ name and I would be extremely surprised if any of the people responsible had even heard of the game prior to making the film.
