The Shopaholics

From Beijing with Love

Pauline Chan, Joe Cheng

Tai Seng, 2001

A funny and touching action film
This is one of my favorite Stephen Chow movies. Some say this film marks a change in Stephen Chow's style. His prior comedies were really funny but also mostly tongue-in-cheek, where rarely did Chow's characters display any sincerity, and his tears were always fake. ...

King of Comedy

Jackie Chan, Joe Cheng

Universe Italy, 2001

biography of Stephen Chow
This is one of Stephen Chow's best movies. Only second to his "Chinese Odyssey" series, in my opinion. The whole movie seems like his biography as an actor who started small and because of his "professional spirit" or non-stopping pursue achieved his goal of ...

A True Mob Story

Andy Lau, Gigi Leung

Tai Seng, 2001

wong jing finally made a good movie!...
Wong Jing is a good director, (if you love commercial movies). But in A True Mob Story, which he directed, wrote, and produced. And it surprised me with its complexity and emotions. Andy Lau is Cheung Dee, a low-level triad boss( kinda like ChanHoNam in the First ...

Expect the Unexpected

Simon Yam, Ching Wan Lau

Tai Seng, 2004

ONE OF THE BEST POLICE THRILLERS OF RECENT YEARS
I saw this not expecting much but good Hong Kong action. Imagine my surprise when I watched how it took cop films seriously. It's well acted by Simon Yam and Lau Chen Wan, but the surprising element is the writing. The characters are all real people with real ...

Fighting For Love

Sammi Cheng, Sammy Leung

Tai Seng, 2002

Poorly developed yet oddly real...4
Director Joe Ma and star Sammi Cheng stage a Feel 100% reunion. The new face: newly crowned Cannes Film Festival Best Actor Tony Leung Chiu-Wai. This mundane romantic comedy is an odd follow-up to his award-winning turn in Wong Kar-Wai's In the Mood for Love, but he ...

Too Many Ways to Be No. 1

Ching Wan Lau, Francis Ng

Tai Seng, 2002

Lau ching Wan, my favorite fat guy of HK cinema
This is one wigged out flick. It tells the story of a low-level gangster with a developing code of ethics marred by rotten luck. The film takes on the story from a crossroads in the young thug's life. His choices reflect his fate. The camera angles will surely ...

Sixty Million Dollar Man

Dion Lam, Joe Cheng

Tai Seng, 2001

* * * PURE INSANITY * * *
This is a crazy dumb exciting mind-blowing amazing movie. I've never seen anything like this before... This movie has many turns in the plot that make the story really interesting. I have all SC's movies and this is one of my fav (along with "God of cookery" "From ...
