Jonathon Alley's Top Ten Hong Kong Movies
OK: fer what it be worth:
1. DRUNKEN MASTER 2
Show me more exhilirating martial arts.
2. THE KILLER
Personifies the Woo trip.
3. BULLET IN THE HEAD
Story+action+woo - minus cheese factor stops it being No 1.
4. FONG SAI YUK
Jet's best and that peasant's head has never been the same.
5. ZU WARRIORS
Tsui busts out and how.
6. BRIDE WITH WHITE HAIR
A fairy tale for grown ups that deserves its classic status.
7. ONCE UPON A TIME IN CHINA 2
For Jet, for the story, for the end, and for the umbrella.
8. FALLEN ANGELS
The Wong Kar Wai 'thing' at its best.
9. ICEMAN COMETH
First HK flick I ever saw, so it's special.
10. MR VAMPIRE
Blue hopping guys who bite people are funny. Argue with me.
