User Reviews

Pretty good

As a fan of Chow Yun-Fat and Hong Kong-movies I saw "Rich and Famous" yesterday, and I thought that it was pretty good. The movie wasn`t as good as "The Killer" and "Hard Boiled"(both 10/10), but then nothing is.

"Rich and Famous" had what I like about Hong Kong-films, namely cool characters and well-choreographed action, but it wouldn`t hurt this movie if it had more action.

A pretty good film, and Chow Yun-Fat is cool as always. 7,5/10
