- Running On Karma (2003)
- Funeral March (2001)
- 2046 (2004)
Didn’t know that this movie actually came out in 2000. This is Wong Kar-Wai at his best. Imagery of the 60s is luscious, story telling is simple and how lovely the movie looks.
Triad crime thriller sort of revived the Hong Kong film industry. Which was remade for Hollywood called The Departed. I prefer Infernal Affairs over the Hollywood remake.
Funny comedy and showed that Sammi can acted and why we loved her.
The last 10 minutes of the movie is priceless just hearing that Danny Chan song.
Cecilia can show she can really do drama in this heart-wrenching film.
During the height of SARS, this movie is still enjoyable to watch and its sad at the end.
Took him nearly five years to make. Its a sequel to In The Mood For Love. Great to see Faye Wong in this film and nearly less than 5 minutes with Tony and Carina.
