Butterfly & Sword: Donnie Yen and Michelle Yeoh - Enough said! You only need mention the names of these two superstars in relation to a Hong Kong movie and you know you're dealing with a quality production. Such is the adrenaline-charged swordplay fantasy Butterfly & Sword (18) - a hugely impressive showcase for the dazzling skills of both - which also stars Hard Boiled's Tony Leung.
Directed by Chin Siu-Tung (who choreographed Jet Li in Swordsman II), this breathtaking spectacle explodes into action from the very first scene and continues at a mind-blowing pace until the stunning climax. During the ride, viewers are treated to jaw-dropping locations, awesome fight choreography and surreal violence with all the key performers in top form throughout.
Butterfly & Sword is full of the stylish, sweeping action which later would make Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (Michelle Yeoh again) such a huge worldwide hit. Characters routinely spin upside down, through the air, use soccer balls as deadly weapons, run up walls with ease and, in one particularly memorable sequence, use each other as human bows and arrows - sending Tony Leung flying straight through the bad guys like a hot knife through butter!
Such a sumptuous visual experience as this tends not worry too much about plotting and this is no exception. The story is sufficiently convoluted as to be unfathomable, so we'll just say this: Michelle Yeoh is a loyal defender of her King's empire under siege from an army of revolutionaries. That'll do! This is Hong Kong cinema at its most exuberant: an action adventure which bombards the viewer with amazing images and gorgeous cinematography but isn't afraid of delivering some startling scenes of violence and gore to boot.
The Blade: Legendary Hong Kong Director Tsui Hark blends violent action and stunning swordplay in his remake of the Shaw Brothers classic "One-Armed Swordsman".
"The Blade" is a sweeping epic which highlights the incredible fighting talent of Chiu Cheuk, Hong Kong's latest action start. When a master sword-maker adopts the son of a murdered friend, (Chiu Cheuk), the boy learns the master's craft well. As a young man he learns about his fathers death at the hand of a mysterious tattooed killer (Xiong-Xin-Xin). He takes fathers broken blade and sets out to seek vengeance. The daughter, Ling, follows but is caught in a bloody ambush. When he tries to rescue her, his arm is hacked off in the battle and he is believed dead by all except Ling and his friend who set out in search of him.
But he is saved by a hermit girl who nurses him back to health where he finds an old kung fu manual and practices with the broken blade to perfect the art of one armed swordfighting.
In a breathtaking finale, unlike anything you have seen before, our hero sets off once again to find the tattooed assassin, a quest that leads to an explosive and spectacular showdown.
What Price Survival: 'What Price Survival' is the stunning reworking of the Shaw Brothers classic 'The One Armed Swordsman'...... An eye for an eye... An arm for an arm...
