Zi yu feng bao [VHS] Review

Hong Kong action film `Purple Storm' has one clever idea at the center of it, but you may not like it exactly because of its total implausibility. Still the idea - turning an amnesic terrorist into a secret agent working for the police - is an interesting one, and Daniel Wu playing a young terrorist who begins to be aware of his better side of personality did a fantastic job together with capable supports and terrific actions.

Khmer Rouge terrorist Soong (Kwok-Leung Gan) arrives in Hong Kong with his faithful and deadly men. His mission is twofold: one is to accomplish his `revolution' in Asia, and the other is to retrieve his own son Tod (Daniel Wu), who is captured alive by the Hong Kong police after he got shot, and lost completely his memories.

While Soong prepares for the plans, Ma Li (Emile Chau) leader of Anti Terrorist Force decides to adopt an audacious plan suggested by Doctor Shirley Kwan (Joan Chen). That is, master and manipulate the unconscious part of Tod's mind, and create the false memories of the past for him as an undercover agent working for the government. This could be naturally an ingenious plan to kill Soong who is searching for his lost son.

As the film is set in today's Hong Kong, the actions of the film do not use much wires or kung-fu, but during the running time tension almost always prevails all over the scenes. There are numerous plot holes and incredible situations, and the CG images should have been brushed up for the finished version, but the actors' superb acting and good photography convey the intense atmosphere that this kind of action needs. Among many good things about the film, the most memorable is the acting from Daniel Wu, Kwok-Leung Gan, Emile Chau, and Josie Ho as deadly female terrorist.

And `Purple Storm' is also a "welcome back" work for Joan Chen who returned to the Asian film industry after so many disappointing projects like `Judge Dredd.' Though her work here is slightly better than a cameo, Joan Chen went on to appear in a series of acitically acclaimed films like `Jasmine Flower' or `Sunflower.'

`Purple Storm' is an above-average action film, which might look slightly Americanized. But the basic part of the film is that of Hong Kong films, and for those good parts the film is worth seeing.

Fail Safe [Region 2] Review

As someone who grew up in the shadow of the Cold War, this movie has always intrigued me. A truly scary premise especially now that the machines have taken over (sorry, that's a Cyberdyne joke).

This made-for-TV remake was broadcast live in 2000 and I was most impressed. I am a technical flaw-spotting fiend and I only spotted one glitch - I'll let you find it.

The plot is already explained so I'll address the cast - well chosen, and the production values - top-notch. Live TV is most unforgiving and this was pulled-off in good fashion.

Sadly this scenario has been supplanted by terrorism but nevertheless, for those who recall the truly excellent 1964 version, this modern take still manages to grip you with suspense. Once I finish this review I am ordering a copy. You should do the same.

Ging chaat goo si juk jaap [VHS] Review

Police Story 2 was made to be the sequel to Police Story 1. Jackie directs this (and PS 1) and keeps the same type of serious tone but adds in more humor. The story is not as tight or gripping as the first but most Jackie fans will enjoy this.

Unlike PS 1, this is sort of a mindless movie. It starts out with the bad guy who Jackie sends to jail at the end of PS 1 (famous Shaw Brothers director Yuen Chor) out for revenge now that he is out of jail. He hires a guy to constantly harass Jackie and get into fights with him. It gets more complex than that and there is a real plot but the movie drags along too much before the fantastic ending sequence finally comes.

It was cool to see old school star John Cheung ('Snake in the Monkey's Shadow' and 'Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story') in a major role as one of the bad guys. Ben Lam ('Legend of the Wolf') also has a major part. Even one of Jackie's very best stuntmen Benny Lai is given a big role as the deaf mute. Benny Lai is a little guy but his kicking abilities are spectacular. I think the movie could have been a lot better but Maggie Cheung is even more enjoyable than she was in part 1 and it is a very fun film. Michael Chow and Lau Ching Wan also have cameos as cops. Both being fairly new to the movie scene at this time. And of course it is always great to see Bill Tung playing Uncle Bill and Mars as one of Jackie's cop buddies. You have to love Uncle Bill.

Akin to Jackie Chan's other movies, expect the best of the best stuntwork from Jackie and his team. Very inventive as always. I can't even imagine how much it would hurt trying to lay down every night during the shooting of this. In PS 1, Jackie came up with his own type of action choreography. He went away from long matches where each opponent throws hundreds of punches and kicks with 1 person barely coming out alive at the end. Jackie tried to give the fights more realism since it is a modern day film. Combine the amazing stuntwork with the real type of fighting and it is just a pure joy to watch. I actually like Jackie's old school kung fu movies better, but the new style of action that he developed has been featured in his movies ever since PS 1 and he hasn't done too bad for himself. There is nothing like watching Jackie in action, and his skills are on full display in this classic.

Dragon Dynasty releases this in widescreen with almost perfect picture quality. It has 5.1 sound in Cantonese and English. It also has the original mono track which I prefer. They still can't figure out how to fit the subtitles into the black bar on the bottom of the screen, but this is minor and really the only fault of the DVD. The Japanese 122 minute cut is used which I have heard is inferior to the shorter Hong Kong cut. I always choose the uncut version no matter what but I suppose this could have been trimmed down a bit.

If you liked the special features for PS 1 then you will love this special edition. There is another full length audio commentary from Hong Kong film expert Bey Logan and 'Rush Hour' director Brett Ratner. I don't like rating commentaries but this was not quite as enjoyable as PS 1. There are a few good topics brought up.

Special features include a 34 minute tribute to Jackie Chan and his team's stuntwork on the movie. This is even better than the similar tribute on PS 1 and of course this is the best special feature. It has interviews with 6 stuntmen (and woman) including Mars and Benny Lai discussing their experiences on the set and the extreme amount of work that went into the making of this.

There is an alternate version of the closing credits which shows Maggie Cheung getting a HUGE gash on her head.

'Police Story 2 Location Guide' gives a look at all of the locations where the movie was shot with Bey Logan explaining the scenes and giving info on actors. 12 minutes long

'Celebrating the Sequel' is an 8 minute interview with Ratner and Logan. I didn't get this. What was the commentary for? Did they just need 8 more minutes to talk? So basically, there is 2 hours and 10 minutes of commentary. That is the only way I can try to explain this special feature.

Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers Review

This movie has everything any red-blooded American male B-movie buff could ever ask for. Beautiful women. Killing. Beautiful women. Comedy. Beautiful women. A wiseacre detective a la Mike Hammer on valium. And all of it on the cheap. If you're one of those PC Nazis, you'll hate it, but if you can take low-brow comedy with a grain of salt it'll be a fabulous movie-going experience.

Forrest Gump - � dition Collector 2 DVD Review

Forrest Gump is a rare movie that succeeded on all levels. It was a box office smash ranking among the top five highest grossing movies of all time. But it was also a critical darling, garnering across the board praise and a truckload of awards. The movie became a cultural phenomenon, spawning cook books, quote books, a top ten soundtrack album and lines like "stupid is as stupid does" and "life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get" have permeated our dialect. The movie has a nostalgic, feel good vibe thanks to the dimwitted Forrest's trek through 60's and 70's touchstone events. Underneath all those warm feelings lies a darkness. Bad things happen to just about everyone Forrest comes in contact with. His best friend Bubba is killed in Vietnam, his other friend Lt. Dan loses both his legs, his mother dies of cancer and his beloved Jenny dies of AIDS. Even the famous people Forrest comes across meet with disaster, President Kennedy & John Lennon are assassinated, George Wallace is shot and Elvis Presley dies young. There are superb performances all around. Sally Field is feisty as Forrest's mama, Mykelti Williamson is funny as Bubba, Gary Sinese as Lt. Dan is a perfect rough edged foil to Forrest and Robin Wright as Jenny portrays the confusion that young people of the times felt perfectly. While all those performances are of high quality, Forrest Gump is Tom Hanks' tour de force. He is utterly brilliant as Forrest. He is in virtually every scene of the movie and never once does he fail to astound. He becomes Forrest and makes you care what happens to him. Mr. Hanks deservedly won his second consecutive Best Actor Oscar for the role and cemented himself as the best actor of his generation and one of the best of all time.
