Hong Kong Films

Hong Kong films are a genre of their own. They are internationally famous for their incredible action flicks and brilliant cult movies.

My favourite Hong Kong actors are Jackie Chan, Michael Hui, Jet Li, Chow Yun Fat, Jacky Cheung, Samo Hung, Yuen Biao and Eric Tsang.

Every industry have their own 'cult movies', and the ones which are 'classics' (according to me!) and I believe depict Hong Kong culture are:

A Chinese Ghost Story
Mr Vampire
Chungking Express
God of Gambling
Once Upon a Time in China
Ringo Lam's film series:
Island on Fire;
City on Fire;
Prison on Fire;
Prison on Fire II

As I mentioned before, I have some further information about about three of my favourite stars, Jackie Chan, Michael Hui, and Jet Li. I'm open to any suggestions or criticism about my Hong Kong Films page (unless its someonewho has a prob w/ Jet Li!!).

Jet Li Lian Jie

Jackie Chan Sing Lung

Michael Hui Koon Man

For a brilliant archive of Hong Kong movies and actors, check out the best HK film library I've seen: Hong Kong Cinema
You can look up most of the movies I've mentioned on this page, including their summaries and reviews. Kewl! ^_^

Hopefully, I will soon put up some more info about HK movies and stars. Of course, my taste is very different to some of my friends (not-mentioning-anybodies-names but can u believe that some of these ppl don't like Jackie Chan?!?!?)
