Wonderful character development!
Highly Overrated But Still Good
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

View MoreBullets of Love was a great movie. I originally bought it because it just sounded like a cool, shoot'em up cop drama, but it turned out to be more. It has a great cast, everyone did really well acting-wise, and a (in my opinion) very good storyline- with a couple nice twists and turns. Even though there's a few things that while you're watching it make you think "what? but how did that happen?" in the end everything makes sense. Some people might say that the story is too convoluted, and complicated but if you actually pay attention it makes perfect sense. If you find yourself confused, watch it again it won't be a waste of time and you'll see things that will make it all make sense. It's worth it. It's also very touching, not just you're average cop drama. I loved it and would recommend it to anyone.
View MoreSolid, violent thriller starring Leon Lai, who plays a cop whose wife is assassinated in retaliation for his arresting Night', a dangerous mob boss. He quits and starts a quiet life on a scenic island, but when a mysterious Japanese girl who resembles his dead missus appears on the scene he finds love again. His peace is shattered when Night is released from jail and seeks revenge! Cue a bloody and tragic finale.OK, it's a touch melodramatic, and you can tell there isn't going to be a fairytale ending, but this is an enjoyable romantic thriller that looks great and is well worth watching. Lai is always good value and Asaka Seto is a beautiful and enigmatic actress. Recommended.
View MoreTypical HK movies are bad!! However, this movie is not so typical. There is an extra element in this movie that makes it glow from the rest. Seto Asaka, the Japanese actress, helped save this movie from being another typical, bad HK flick. Asaka has the ability to light up the screen and she's why I decided to see this movie. Indeed, Asaka shined even in the not so perfect world of HK films.
View MoreA classic Asian romance story where the most beautiful love relationships, just as flowers who were on the brink of blooming, can never fully open up and prosper peacefully. Even though I saw the plot twist coming from miles away, I couldn't bring myself to believe it; this movie is very intense and the emotion maelstrom continuously raging throughout the film finally explodes in the end into one of the most powerful moments since books I've read from Hugo. I might still be under the movie's spell, but I really did find the main characters extremely well developed and I really felt for each of them; I recommend this movie to fans of 'true' romantic love stories with some punches and a few gun shots. Movies like these prove to me that the best movies often don't come out of Hollywood.
