The Wandering Earth (2019)

The Best Science Fiction Movie in a while, to me its the best

[10/10 · 10 February 2019]

Best Scifi movie I've ever watched, great special effects, interesting story/plot, cool visuals and technology/space/physics explanations, drama, emotion, had moments of comedy. Great to see Asians in these roles and types of movies because US Hollywood won't give Asians those roles.

How Long Will I Love U (2018)

Very interesting movie and the main characters performed well

[10/10 · 17 June 2018]

I don't speak or read Chinese, only fluent English, it was great movie and I had to read subtitles. Maybe one reason is its refreshing to see a movie not made by US Hollywood and roles you wouldn't see an Asian character have but its made by a country that doesn't have that issue :^) Really though very touching and moving at times, dramatic, charming, romantic comedy, as good if not better than anything US Hollywood makes in this genre. Chinese movies are getting pretty good these days and only getting better, hope to be able to see more movies and not the same ole that is US Hollywood.

The China Hustle (2017)

Highly Recommended

[10/10 · 4 April 2018]

Excellent Movie! Do a search on this movie and see the excellent reviews from various Financial sites such as Forbes, MarketWatch, etc. Very good drama and this is really what is going on, more people need to know about this. It hasn't yet received the notoriety of or its not mainstream knowledge like the Madoff scandal but this is probably a bigger fraud and mess. Interesting how all this works.

Mayhem (2017)

Great movie, not your typical mainstream movie but it should have been

[10/10 · 14 January 2018]

Wish this were marketed more for the mainstream as it was an awesome movie and broke stereotypes. I see it was filmed in Belgrade, Serbia, kind of cool and the actors and actresses mainly from UK, Australia, New Zealand and Serbia. Great to see Steven Yeun as the lead finally but this wasn't a mainstream, heavily media marketed for US audiences, only think it was a limited release in the USA since its not one of the top 3 or 5 production companies that run mainstream and hence what the mainstream gets to watch. Liked the interesting plot, reading the plot on IMDB it sounded interesting and good and it was, good dialogue/lines, I guess could call it a horror/drama comedy movie.

The Foreigner (I) (2017)

Great Action Movie, Complex Politics, Interesting Plot line

[10/10 · 15 October 2017]

It really was a great movie, great to see Jackie Chan at his age performing well in a quality movie. The plot line many will find very fascinating and might learn a few new things. The great action and plot made the two hours go by fast. The movie will hit on all your emotions. Hope to see more good movies from Jackie before he retires.

Sky Hunter (2017)

Great Action and Special Effects

[10/10 · 8 October 2017]

Quite surprised, Chinese movies special effects and action getting really good, they are learning from how US Hollywood has done it. Really liked the jet action and dogfighting. Also had a good plot with emotions and drama. Glad I get a chance to see some of the movies China is putting out vs only getting to see US Hollywood movies. China is becoming a big movie market and I believe it has done well in their market.

Gook (2017)

Very Good Movie

[10/10 · 26 August 2017]

Very good movie, never boring, hit on all the emotions. Unique storytelling you'll see when you watch the movie. Good acting by the main actors and actresses in the movie. Nice to see a story from the eyes of a person who knows about it and was there. Like the profound ending too, but won't give too much about that.

The Adventurers (2017)

Great action movie

[10/10 · 20 August 2017]

Really enjoyed it, great action with a good plot, Chinese movies are getting every bit as good as Hollywood if not better in some genres. I really liked the beautiful scenery and locations around the world the film took place in. The actors and actresses were really good in this movie. Recommended to watch this good movie.

Wish Upon (2017)

Entertaining with suspense, nice plot twists

[10/10 · 16 July 2017]

To me it was an excellent movie, for a horror didn't need to get all gory but it did provide some of that for people who like a lot of that, sometimes better to show just enough and leave the rest to the imagination, we get the idea/picture. There was good suspense, drama, and plot twists. Versus other horror films this is good as any other ever made if not better, its a high school coming of age horror film, about what you would expect a film like this to be. Like the diversity in the movie and with an Asian male in it not being emasculated.
