Review: IP MAN - THE FINAL FIGHT Displays Both Humility and Strength
Herman Yau directs Anthony Wong in this low-key but enjoyable drama focusing on the twilight years of Ip Man's life. Less an action movie than a love letter to 1950s Hong Kong, the film nevertheless cements the man's position as a modern day folk hero.
Johnnie To Sees Red in First BLIND DETECTIVE Teaser
Hong Kong's Johnnie To is showing no signs of restraint in the wake of his violent mainland-based thriller, Drug War, which has its domestic at the 37th Hong Kong International Film Festival later this week. The first teaser trailer for Blind Detective was revealed today at Hong Kong Filmart, and it appears the director is keeping things bloody. The film stars Andy Lau as the titular handicapped sleuth, who is called in by Sammi Cheng's cop to track a vicious killer on the streets of Hong Kong. The Media Asia-backed production includes numerous familiar faces from To's Milkyway Image, and hints at a typically stylish & surreal affair similar to To's earlier Mad Detective, that sees Lau getting all introspective about his disability, while also pulling him into an increasingly dangerous game of cat and mouse. Check it out below.

Have you guys seen the new Star Wars trailer! It's amazing! I love the part when Han Solos boys and landos daughter are flying the millennium falcon through that narrow space. The new Sith Lord seems super power even without a lightsaber.
Oh wait that's a new Star Trek trailer...
I'm on a phone just look it up came out today. The movie looks crazy awesome and much more Star Wars than Star Trek.
Star Trek is about exploration, diplomacy and documentation. None of this new shit is Star Trek at all. When I think of the videogame coming out from this disastarious shit movie a little piece of me dies inside.
GodModeEnabled said:Star Trek is about exploration, diplomacy and documentation.
And all that is boring. Yay new Star Trek!
Star Trek is about Deanna Trois BOOBS poking out of her outfit.
This movie is on my recommended asian film list, it's pretty light hearted fun
