27 May 2012 4:59 PM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
What can I say about director Gordon Chan’s upcoming period kung fu endeavor “The Four” that I have already said already? If you missed our previous coverage of the flick, I’ll give you a quick breakdown. First, it has monsters. Second, it would appear there’s no shortage of martial arts mayhem. Always a good thing. And, last but not least, it looks awesome. That’s pretty much all you need to know. Monsters, martial arts, awesome. Fantastic! Here’s a handy synopsis to help set the stage: An undercover agent is assigned by his corrupt chief to infiltrate a rival department and sabotage their investigation of counterfeit currency. What he discovers is the counterfeiter’s real plan. To overthrow the capital. Not by flooding it with funny money, but with an army of undead. If case you haven’t heard, “The Four” stars Colin Chou, Anthony Wong, »

What's old is new again. Exactly two decades ago, notorious filmmaker Wong Jing produced Naked Killer, a "Girls With Guns" film that became a Hong Kong cult classic due to its graphic violence and explicit sexual nature. He then followed it up a decade later with Naked Weapon, an unrelated film but containing similar themes. Now he's at it once again in this decade with Naked Soldier and while times have changed, the level of sex and violence continues to stay the same. The director is Marco Mak with Corey Yuen serving as action director. In the cast is Jenn Tse, Sammo Hung, Anthony Wong, Philip Ng, Ankie Beilke, Lena Lin, Andy On, Luxia Jiang and Ellen Chan.Interpol agent Ck Long busted a billion-dollar »

Film Review: ‘A Simple Life’ Celebrates the Transcendent Beauty of Human Selflessness
4 May 2012 7:06 AM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – The inherent drama of reality is trickier to capture on camera than one might suspect. Cinéma verité failed as soon as filmmakers utilized manipulative techniques to contrive on-camera drama. The staged shouting matches, comedic barbs and tearful breakdowns prevalent on Reality TV are as phony (or, dare I say, phonier) than the human behavior witnessed in scripted productions.
Rating: 4.5/5.0
So many films that purport themselves to be realistic depictions of life rely on clichéd misunderstandings and third act revelations to fuel the dramatic conflict. This is an easy alternative to exploring human relationships unbound by the limitations of a formula. As one of the essential figures of the Hong Kong New Wave, Ann Hui avoids such constructs like the plague. There’s more reality-per-frame in her new film, “A Simple Life,” than there is in TLC’s entire programming schedule.

Teaser Trailer for Gordon Chan’s The Four Will Haunt Your Kung Fu Dreams
25 April 2012 7:10 PM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
Magic, monsters, and martial arts — that’s a damn fine recipe for cinematic bliss, especially when it’s seasoned with a little Anthony Wong. That declaration sounds a lot more deranged than I thought it would, but it’s the only way I know how to adequately describe my excitement for director Gordon Chan’s upcoming kung fu orgasm “The Four”. The teaser is only 60 seconds long, but it’s the best minute you’ll spend watching crap online all week. Trust me. This synopsis should help explain things a bit: An undercover agent is assigned by his corrupt chief to infiltrate a rival department and sabotage their investigation of counterfeit currency. What he discovers is the counterfeiter’s real plan. To overthrow the capital. Not by flooding it with funny money, but with an army of undead. “The Four” stars Colin Chou, Anthony Wong, Crystal Liu, Deng Chao, and Ronald Cheng. »

White Vengeance (2011) Movie Review
9 April 2012 8:07 AM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
Although its odd English title might suggest some kind of racially themed thriller, “White Vengeance” is actually Hong Kong director Daniel Lee latest Chinese historical epic, following up on “Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon” and Donnie Yen vehicle “14 Blades”. This time, Lee has chosen a weighty subject in the Hongmen Banquet, a landmark event which took place over 2000 years ago when various factions were vying for control after the fall of the Qin Dynasty. The prestigious blockbuster has a typically all-star cast, headlined by Leon Lai (“Bodyguards and Assassins”) and television star William Feng (“Palace”), with support from the legendary Anthony Wong (“The Untold Story”), Zhang Hanyu (“Assembly”), Jordon Chan (“Once a Gangster”), Andy On (“True Legend”) and actress Crystal Liu (recently in the “A Chinese Ghost Story” remake). The film begins in China during the last years of the Qin Dynasty, with the capture of the fallen »

The Woman Knight Of Mirror Lake: DVD review
6 March 2012 1:35 PM, PST | 24framespersecond.net | See recent 24FramesPerSecond news »
Director: Herman Yau. Review: Adam Wing. Underrated Hong Kong director Herman Yau (The Legend is Born: Ip Man) takes to period kung fu for his biopic about late-Qing revolutionary Qiu Jin, who in case you didn’t know, was pivotal in bringing about the downfall of the imperial regime in China. Crystal Huang brings The Woman Knight of Mirror Lake to life, supported on her journey by a star-studded cast including Anthony Wong, Kevin Cheng and Lam Suet. The truth is in there somewhere, that goes without saying, but a sweeping action epic wouldn’t be much fun without spectacular battle sequences orchestrated by veteran action director Leung Siu Hung (Ip Man). Two timelines run side by side in Herman Yau’s inspired (and inspiring) offering, with the first one depicting Qui Jin’s arrest, trial and eventual demise. The other timeline - which is afforded most of the running »

Punished DVD Review
23 January 2012 7:00 AM, PST | FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news »
Punished Directed by: Law Wing Cheong Written by: Chi Keung Fung Starring: Anthony Wong, Richie Jen, Janice Man, Maggie Cheung Ho Yee Punished is another entry in the revenge genre that continues in its ongoing popularity. A kidnapping occurs with the film non-linearly unraveling the mystery of who is involved. Although there are a few depictions of brutal violence, this film concerns itself mainly with the psychological toll on the perpetrator of revenge. An interesting change is that the physical revenge is performed by a hired-hand of the victim's father. Some people expecting an action film will likely find the character scenes rather bland, but I thought they were interesting in the context of the mystery of revealing who was involved in the kidnapping. The violence is not stylized at all. There are rough and tumble fights rather than wire-work martial arts. And the gunfights are straight ahead "keep shooting until you get shot" matches. »
