Release Year: 1997

It not only shows that Yuen Biao can still bust a move, but is one of the late 90’s better dramatic action movies.

Another one to add to the dust gathering pile of DVD’s – and recommended only for Koichi or Shannon completists.

‘Kitchen’ is watchable, of course for Jordan Chan’s first-rate display, though it tends to languish in pretentiousness when a firmer hand would have been far more effective.

The plot definitely leaves a lot to be desired but I’d say the final fight is worth the admission price alone.

It’s hard to think of a film that attempts to mix so many elements together, trying to please just about every potential viewer.

The action and the winning persona of the lead are reasons to give this four stars, but the obvious deficiencies means it’s only a three.

A delightful adventure that has belly laughs weaved together with the odd moment of social commentary.

A rather unremarkable and unsatisfying debut from writer and director Song Neung-han, ‘No. 3’ is neither as funny as it thinks it is or as hip and entertaining as it wants to be.

Fans of the first two will be sorely disappointed by ‘Once Upon A Time In China And America’ and will no doubt feel somewhat short-changed.

A fantastical story filled with a meaningful narrative and superb characters. Truly another masterpiece from the mind of Miyazaki.

Despite not getting the rhythm completely correct throughout, it still reminds the viewer that Korea has an understanding of the quiet desperation of loneliness that has rarely been achieved in the West.

‘The Hunted Hunter’ never aspires beyond the limitations of the sub-genre – it remains content to bulldoze through the plot-holes with its action sequences.
