Our Times
Directed by Yu Shan Chen
Screenplay by Yung-Ting Tseng
Taiwan, 2015
Our Times is a Taiwanese comedy/romance film directed by Yu Shan Chen (Frankie Chen). The film is a sweet as honey coming of age story that will appeal to those with a love of the standard will they or won’t they rom-coms, schmaltzy drama, and slapstick humour as well as those who get a kick out of 90’s nostalgia.
Truly Lin (Joe Chen) is a sad-sack 30-something, suffering through the doldrums of life in Taipei. Truly has an unfulfilling yet demanding job, gets ragged on by her underlings, and her boyfriend is a dick. Just as the audience starts to fully grasp Truly’s lowly existence, Our Times flashes back to her high-school life in the 90’s (where Truly is played by Vivian Sung). As a high-school student, Truly is young, vibrant, and bristling with enthusiasm...

Check out a new trailer for Pou-Soi Cheang’s bonkers looking “The Monkey King”, which stars Donnie Yen as the titular monkey man and Chow Yun Fat as his nemesis, the Jade Emperor of Heaven. The trailer is chock full of crazy CGI battles and flying around the clouds and nutso fighting. It reminds me of the good old days of Hong Kong action cinema, back when characters would fly around the screen shooting lasers out of their hands at each other. No, really. There were movies like that, and they weren’t sci-fi, either. Oh, and monkeys rule! Second trailer for the action/fantasy film The Monkey King (大鬧天宮) directed by Cheang Pou-soi and starring Donnie Yen. The film is based on selected chapters of Wu Cheng’en’s classical novel Journey to the West and will tell the story of how the Monkey King rebels against the Jade Emperor of Heaven.

It’s been a while since I’ve covered anything regarding director Soi Cheang’s fantasy martial arts film “The Monkey King.” To be perfectly honest, the movie had slipped off my radar. In order to remind everyone that the picture is still on its way to the big screen, a brand new teaser has been released. Although you won’t see Yen in action, it’s nice to get a taste of things to come. Based on the classic Chinese novel “Journey To The West,” the film follows the adventures of the Monkey King as he rebels against the Jade Emperor of Heaven. “The Monkey King,” which also stars Aaron Kwok, Joe Chen Qiao-En, Chow Yun Fat, Peter Ho, Faye Wong, Gigi Leung, Cecilia Cheung, and Fan Siu-Wong, is slated for release in China on July 4, 2013. You can check out the latest poster and the aforementioned teaser below...

Hong Kong film maker Barbara Wong, known for romantic comedies that tackle modern issues, such as the recent “The Perfect Marriage” and “The Break Up Club”, returns with something a little more bitter than sweet in “The Allure of Tears”. As its title suggests, the film is a tearjerker of the highest order, featuring 3 vaguely connected stories of love and loss, with the emphasis firmly on the latter. Seeing Wong working again with regular writer-producer Lawrence Cheng, the film features a fine cast made up of newcomers and industry veterans, including Richie Jen (“Punished”), Gigi Leung (“Marrying Mr Perfect”), Aarif Lee (“Bruce Lee, My Brother”) and popular television starlet Joe Chen (“You’re My Destiny”), plus Shawn Dou and Zhou Dongyu, stars of Zhang Yimou’s “Under the Hawthorn Tree”. The first of the film’s segments focuses on Zhou Dongyu as Xili Mei, a young woman suffering from leukaemia,...

Production on “Shamo” director Soi Cheang’s big-budget fantasy epic “The Monkey King” already started last month with an impressive cast that included Donnie Yen, Aaron Kwok, and Chow Yun-Fat. The film has now added three lovely lasses to the roster: Cecilia Cheung (left), Gigi Leung and Kelly Chen. “Monkey King”, as you might have guessed, is yet another iteration of the vastly popular Chinese tome “Journey to the West”. In the film, Yen is playing the Monkey King, while Kwok is Bull Demon King. Chow Yun-Fat, meanwhile, will co-star as the Jade Emperor of Heaven. Also joining the cast: Taiwan actors Peter Ho and Joe Chen, and mainland actor Liu Ye. “The Monkey King” is clocking in with an estimated $57 million dollar budget, which may seem “modest” by Hollywood standards, but is a whopper in Chinese movie industry terms. The film is scheduled for release in 2012 in 3D.
