Killer Angels

An adjustment to the score will be made due to having to watch the dubbed version. The action and acting are pretty good here definitely one of the better looking Moon Lee films. Gordon Liu is great as a love struck heavy and it was awesome seeing a young Ng Man-Tat. This also feature a bevy of guns...

Interstellar

Altogether a pretty great film. I alternated between love it and being impatient with it, Most of the space scenes were really great and I found most of the acting during the space scenes to be really well done. I can't say the same for the earth scenes however. Every time the film switch to an eart...

Ninja Gaiden

As far as generic one shot OVA anime goes this one wasn't that bad. It seems to have been based of the old NES game Ninja Gaiden 2, which I'm not too familiar with, the anime assumes that you know the characters and doesn't spend a lot of time establishing them. The action is a bit sparse and the fi...

Cosmo Police Justy

This is very much a carbon copy of "Locke the Superman" an animated film that came out the year before with basically the same story and the characters even looked alike. That being said, this short 44 minute has a decent story and an interesting character who witnesses her father being ki...

Savior of the Earth

The English Dub it atrocious and I wonder just how different the dub is from the original script. The terrible English dub aside this movie is still a rip off of the movie TRON. The animation is pretty sloppy and choppy. The Korean anime seems to be about 5-10 years behind the Japanese and a even a ...

Who Am I?

Watched the uncut version of the film which is about 20 minutes longer and more serious than the international version. The bad news is that the film's pacing is much slower and you have to wait close to an hour for any action. The other big problem is that the uncut version is only available dubbed...

Wong Fei-hung: Whip Extinguishes the Candles

The Wong Fei Hung here definitely isn't the staunch and slightly naive hero as portrayed by Jet Li. The fighting here while sloppy and primitive looking now was unlike anything seen before and it still holds up in an Chinese Opera Troop/Live demonstration kind of way. The story is also quite fun and...

Cyber Ninja

Another movie where unfortunately I could only find it cropped, chopped and dubbed. Keita Amemiya is an underrated Tokusatsu creator & director who specializes in live action cyber punk films that are equal parts Anime and Henshin hero. His movies are low budget but filled with imagination and t...

Lethal Panther 2

Now I did have to watch this full screen and with an English Dub so my overall score will be adjusted to account for this. This movie has nothing to do with the first Lethal Panther. The movie starts off with a brief English dubbed set up before abruptly shifting to a long drawn out gunfight the has...

Lethal Panther

Lethal Panther is a super schlocky, somewhat sleazy action flick filled with sex nudity and violence. I could only find a full screen English dubbed version of the film so I’ll adjust my rating accordingly by not really looking at dialogue, framing, cinematography, I will also give some leeway to th...
