Ringo Lam's In Hell is well worth a watch, but still needs a bit of a Fan Edit
Hit the nail on the head there. Much of his career is a string of missed opportunities, with a few gems in between, like 'Hard Target'. Which reminds me, I've yet to see the two latest 'Universal Soldier' sequels.
I did see 'In Hell'. It's a mixed bag, but there's some good stuff there. I would recommend 'Replicant' as well.(2017-08-16, 03:11 PM)CSchmidlapp Wrote: Im also surprised as there my go to Hong Kong aficionados
Though if I was as Die Hard fans, as some I know, I probably would of steered clear also.
Well, I did catch a glimpse of 'Double Team' on TV years ago, but I don't think I watched all of it. So, I'm not completely unfamiliar with it.
