There’s loads of action in Cheetah On Fire and it’s got plenty of fun stars like Shing Fu-On, Ken Lo, Carrie Ng, Gordon Liu, Donnie Yen, Michael Woods, John Salvitti, and Eddie Ko, but I can’t seem to […]

In The Line of Duty II AKA Yes, Madam may be dominated by the ghastly comedy stylings of a rogues gallery of the worst nonsense comedians that Hong Kong had to offer, but director Corey Yuen pulls the film […]

In The Line Of Duty III is far from an unqualified success, but it does have it’s compensations.
Often, with girls with guns flicks, plot and character are given short shrift, merely being a scafold on which […]

If you go into Women On The Run with the idea that you’re going to see a lot of naked women kung fu fighting, you’re apt to be disappointed. Oh, there are a few scenes where […]

Yet another early 90s Hong Kong flick with awesome fighting and stunts, She Shoots Straight has something extra — a peak into another culture.

If you’re looking for emotionally hard-hitting Hong Kong drama, In The Line Of Duty 4 probably ain’t gonna do it for you.

With a title like Sex For Sale, you’d think you’d be in for a sleazy examination of Hong Kong’s massage parlors and hostess bars, which are run by the triads. Sorry, sucker.

I’m going to break with tradition in my review of Naked Weapon. Normally, I only review movies that I’ve seen recently. It’s been years since I’ve seen Naked Weapon, but I’m not willing to put myself through that kind of torture […]

How do you stock a girls with guns flick like Lethal Angels with gorgeous women, exotic weapons, abundant T&A, partial nudity, and graphic violence and still manage to put people to sleep?

TRASH CINEMA ESSENTIAL MOVIE
Naked Killer is 95 minutes of pure delirium disguised as a movie. The characters’ motivations bear scant relationship to those of actual human beings, the plot casually eviscerates logic, and a good twenty minutes of the movie is […]
