Mob Busters
5/10
An American in Hong Kong battles mobsters.
A Book of Heroes
6.8/10
In one of her first film appearances Yukari plays an undercover Japanese criminal police officer investigating the gang led by Yamashita (Yasuaki Kurata). As in most of these Taiwanese films, slapstick comedy alternates with intense action. An absurd plot has something to do with missing bullion and a treasure map. Yamashita’s gang wants it, and so do an unlikely band of heroes, including an incompetent traffic cop, his cop wannabe girl friend, and a couple of card sharks who have teamed up with an infatuated gas station owner. Some of Taiwan’s best action actors provide excellent kung fu action.
New Pilgrims to the West
Chan Jun-Leung's 1982 film based on The Journey to the West.
Five Pretty Young Ladies
5.4/10
Five pretty girls go to Hong Kong to stay with their uncle who is a police superintendent. Soon they run into a gang of thieves, which gives them a chance to put their excellent kung fu skills to good use. This Bod Squad will kick your ass!
