Reviews for Jun 2013

  1.     China Amazing | 神奇
    Messy, splashy VFX drama centred on a basketball computer game is no credit to anyone.

    Mon, 17 June 2013

  1.     China/Taiwan Tiny Times | 小時代
    Super-glossy, very Shanghai tale of four girly friends and their loves and careers.
  2.     China The Deadly Strands | 咒・絲
    Above-average horror entry is more than just a serial murder mystery.

  1.     China Redemption | 殺戒
    Psychodrama centred on a child-custody battle is a bumpy ride dramatically.

  1.     Japan/US It's a Beautiful Day | クソすばらしいこの世界
    US-set, Japanese slasher movie deliriously pushes the borders of the genre.

  1.     South Korea Fists of Legend | 전설의 주먹
    Cliched drama centred on mixed martial arts batters the audience into submission.

  1.     China/Hong Kong Switch | 天機・富春山居圖
    Big, trashy, pan-Chinese action drama is entertaining enough at a popcorn level.

    Tue, 11 June 2013

  1.     India/UK/Netherlands Monsoon Shootout
    Precision-tooled, what-if crime drama entertainingly melds the arty and mainstream.

  1.     India Ugly
    Violent, confusing crime drama has individual moments but remains uninvolving.

  1.     South Korea New World | 신세계 | 新世界
    Terrific saga of gangster power-play, driven by three gripping leads and sleek packaging.

  1.     Hong Kong Golden Gate Silver Light | 金門銀光夢
    Fascinating but disorganised portrait of pioneering US-born filmmaker Esther Eng.
