A community for entertainment industry news and general discussion about movies and TV shows.
Rules:
I'm kind of limited in that I'm really only aware of films that have been exported for American audiences, the Jackie Chan/Sammo Hung/Jet Li/Bruce Lee/Shaw Brothers/Crouching Tiger type stuff. I'm sure there's better that I just have not seen.
But my favorite is Kung Fu Hustle.
And Shaolin Soccer.
Huh, guess I do know a film from Hong Kong.
All good recs so far but haven't seen anyone mention Infernal Affairs.
The goat. Hong kong triad/ Mafia movies are so good.
In the Mood for Love dir Wong Kar-wai. Some of the most beautiful cinematography ever.
Chungking Express.
Fist of Legend.
Legend of the Drunken Master.
Hard Boiled
Ashes of Time, notably Maggie Cheung's scene. The friend that recommended the film to me prefers the original version, but I like the redux version.
God of Cookery
No way. XD
I rewatched it again recently, after it's finished, I was thinking: what the hell did I just watch. XD
The first God of gamblers definitely deserves mentioned.
