Movie Reviews

User Review - 10/10 by Darren HWhen people ask me what's the best film I've seen few have heard of, this is one of the films I usually bring up. Fruit Chan is the Hong Kong Martin Scorsese.
User Review - 10/10 by H BLittle-seen masterpiece that needs a US dvd release.
User Review - 8/10 by Mattias ELittle Cheung concludes Fruit Chan's trilogy about the days leading up to the transfer of sovereignity over Hong Kong in 1997. This time we witness the events from a child's perspective, allowing Chan to drop earlier flirtations with genre films, focusing instead on presenting a pure slice of life. It's also the most locally rooted of the films in the trilogy, referencing personalities from Hong Kong celebrity culture and the tabloid press during the time. The attention to locale is also transmitted visually via Lam Wah-Chuen's excellent camerawork, with images that enhance an actual sense of cultural and class-bound belonging. Like it's two preceding movies, Little Cheung is a film about disappearances and the conflict between old and new, but the feeling of loss is decidedly less burdensome in Little Cheung, since it's also a film about growing up and all the hopes for the future that come with it.
User Review - 8/10 by Abigail KGreat film, but I felt like it could have ended before it did.
User Review - 8/10 by Angie NOne of the best HK movie I've seen, brought back lots of childhood memories. The kid is brilliant, in fact all of the cast are well chosen
