TheTwins EffectThis Hong Kong movie gets its title from Charlene Choi and Gillian Chung, who make up the Eastern pop act The Twins. What could be a dull star vehicle is actually a fun movie, with lots of wire fighting and fast-paced cuts more familiar in a pop video.

Death Valley Bloody BillWith all the great zombie films out recently, this is a bad time to be bringing out a (very) low-quality effort that doesn’t hold up to the competition. Small budget doesn’t always translate into poor movie in this genre, but Death Valley looks and feels like a student movie.

Comment: Hollywood Remakes

The Ring[This review was originally in Japanese and cost less to produce] It's difficult not to be disappointed by a Hollywood remake of a classic movie. Usually, a remake happens because a film has performed amazingly well at the box office, despite being in French, Japanese or so low budget you can see the sticky-back plastic. Or it drew huge crowds 50 years ago and an updated colour version seems like a safe money-spinner. In order to release it to a wider audience (for wider audience read Americans) you naturally have to create a version they can handle. So out goes the foreign language, as does any complicated plotting and character development, and in come extremely good-looking people who look wholesome and sexy at the same time.
