Thank god there's Sammo to balance up this very local kung-fu comedy that comes with an overload of Dean Shek. When he's at it, there's no stopping because he was a creative force behind the scenes usually. Who's to protest but us Westerners because I'm sure crews and audiences in Hong Kong could stand this a lot more. Director Karl Maka does try and be clever by injecting modern movie references into this period piece, mainly from Westerns but it's mostly tiring humour. Just because you feature it as an element, doesn't make it funny. Example: Eric Tsang has an easy 2 minutes of work as the Chinese Clint Eastwood. I'm not snickering even.

Bandits and heroes both come looking for the legendary fighter known as ‘The Shadow Whip’ (Tin Fung) who lives in seclusion with his apprentice Yang Kai-yun (Cheng Pei-pei) and the truth about a crime committed fifteen years ago.
Lo Wei, former film star-turned-director and the self-proclaimed discoverer of Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan helmed The Shadow Whip, one of his last films with Shaw Brothers before moving on to Golden Harvest and eventually striking out on his own. This wuxia pien set in the fabled martial world re-teamed Asia’s top martial arts queen Cheng Pei-pei with Yuen Hua five years after the pair wowed audiences and became action superstars in Come Drink with Me. It’s loaded with old school swordplay action that hasn’t aged as well as its contemporaries, but memorable snowy locales and lots of entertaining bullwhip usage, coupled with the stars’ charisma makes this effort worth visiting.

Panahi's gripping and controversial film is further confirmation that Iranian cinema is now among the most original, vital and exciting in the world.

Set in southern China during the Song Dynasty (1127-1279), Panda Express tells the story of Wang Laoji, a dart seller who is tasked with escorting a giant panda to Lin'an city, where it will perform at a party in honor of an important general. During his journey, Wang meets a variety of characters including a female thief who is anxious to get married, a Mongolian warrior who believes that eating the panda will make him invincible, a woman in search of animal smugglers, and two assassins who are planning to murder the general. All of this leads to a journey that promises to have audiences in stitches with its perfectly timed one-liners, ridiculous side plots and captivating digital effects.

Wind and Cloud find themselves up against a ruthless Japanese warlord intent on invading China.
It has been a long wait, but better late than never. When the first Storm Rider film was released I remembered it caused a stir, for its relatively seamless combination of special effects and martial arts, and for its departure from the established mythos by creator Ma Wing-Shing. Then there is the casting, with popular idols Aaron Kwok and Ekin Cheng in the leading roles, overshadowed by the magnificently charismatic Sonny Chiba! That was some 11 years ago, and given its box office success, a sequel was thought to be expected and imminent, with big name stars like Andy Lau even thrown into the hat at one time as Nameless, but alas the project got stuck in development hell.
It was during an interview session for movieXclusive.com that my friends and I had the opportunity to meet up with Ekin Cheng, and toward the end of the interview he had revealed to us quite candidly that the next Feng Yun film would be made soon, which was why he's keeping his locks after a bald turn in the television serial Huo Yuanjia. We thought he was kidding, or we had heard it wrong, but here we are now, with the Pang Brothers taking over the helm from Andrew Lau, and no, there's no Andy Lau, but long-time-no-see Kenny Ho taking over the role of a pugilist master.
