The Hui brothers combine efforts to create another outstanding piece of canto-comedy that mixes clever satire of the entertainment industry and slapstick comedy.

‘The Convict Killer’ is held together by the confidence of the man behind the lens and the excellent cast gathered together.

‘The Corruptor’ makes for an enjoyable ride that is far superior to Chow’s previous introduction to an international audience.

‘The Daredevils’ is a fine opportunity to savour a great team of performers who always appear to be so comfortable together.

All in all, another quality Sammo production that deserves a wider audience.

A refreshing reminder of how action films used to be made where brains, brawn and banter all play a part in shaping a satisfying story.

‘The Diary Of A Big Man’ is not ‘laugh-out-loud’ comedy, but is recommended to all Chow Yun-Fat fans as it contains enough elements to make it a highly entertaining film.

Bi serves up familiar twists and turns, yet the way they are presented raises them above expectations, successfully mixing the elements of the triad drama with something quite the opposite.

‘Carry on Wuxia’ it may be, but in execution and energy ‘The Eagle Shooting Heroes’ is the most polished in-joke ever made.

If you are a fan of slasher films and gory splatter fests, then this is not for you. However, if you like your horror with a more subtle edge and a strong narrative then this comes highly recommended.

Despite a slow and at times wearisome first half of the film, it eventually blossoms into a distinguished genre work that is recommended to any fan of the Jade Screen.

Ultimately, ‘The Fighting Fool’ is so captivating because, alongside the superlative action, there is a real chemistry between the two leads.
