Lovehkfilm (one of the few hk movie sites i read) recently did a feature for the best 200 Hong Kong movies ever. It's more of a internet fanboy list than a definitive list, but it's a good place to start if y'all ever want to get into HK cinema

This is probably the best Korean film ever. And I'm Korean.

Shogun Assassin - I've never seen the movie but know what you're talking about because it's a sample in the beginning of 4th Chamber on GZA's Liquid Swords album.

Way late, but he isn't talking about Shogun Assassin. The ball and the sword part was in Shogun Assassin but the kid was actually his son and he never taught it to become an assassin.

I'm not sure what movie psk is thinking of.

 

[omgitswes]

I'm looking forward to seeing this

need more recommendations!!!

The White Storm....a throwback to the old John Woo movies, definitely inspired by Bullet to the Head and A Better Tomorrow. Anchored my some good performances too



MMA movie...the main actor won a ton of Best Actor awards for this role.


The latest Donnie Yen movies:

The Monkey King
Special ID
Iceman

....are all TRASH, avoid at all costs

Must watch. Such a messed up movie.

Yuo could check the ratings on IMDB, but these are my favorites.

 

[Josizzle]

I'm all about the asian horror films. What are the best ones?

top of my head, the best I've seen have been these two:

Ju-on

Ring (199

I wasn't really feeling Noroi though, it dragged a lot.

Edit: Also, I loved the Eye
