Release Year: 1989

‘China White’ is not as accomplished as Yu’s later films and hasn’t dated the best either but still remains an entertaining thriller with some hard hitting action scenes.

All in all, this film has little to recommend it unless you are a big Cynthia Rothrock fan.

A movie worth seeing if you need bringing down a peg or two, but not recommended for those with a depressive nature.

While it is undoubtedly just a filler footnote in the ‘Dragon Ball Z’ universe, ‘Dead Zone’ still makes for an enjoyable watch that is likely to please fans of the franchise.

The film suffers from inconsistent pacing with a good opening, a relatively slow middle section and an excellent climax – featuring some blistering fight action.

‘Eight Taels Of Gold’ rewards those not looking for emotional fireworks or melodramatic denouements.

‘Gift From Heaven’ is a low-key comedy, but a very watchable 90 minutes.

It is a true genre-defining classic that will go down in Hong Kong cinema history as one of the greats.

A partial remake of ‘Eyewitness’, the flawed, but diverting 1981 William Hurt/Sigourney Weaver thriller, ‘In Between Loves’ starts with promise only to quickly lose it all.

You really feel a lot of the hits in this film which is all in all, a hugely enjoyable action flick, jam-packed with trademark Woo Ping fight scenes, thankfully sans wires!

‘Kickboxer’ is excellent old-school action entertainment, filled with top-notch fights, classic training sequences, and a sublime soundtrack.

Another superbly constructed piece of cinema that really captures the imagination and warms the heart.
