The Prosecutor 1:16:35

1:16:35

Donnie Yen’s 2025 Dram-action THE PROSECUTOR will have you questioning what you know about legal procedurals with its labyrinthine plot and non stop exposition. If you can stomach Donnie’s soap boxing righteousness for 75% of the film, there’s a really solid 25% of hard hitting martial arts action, including a truly creative and kinetic first person gun/kung fu sequence. Donnie shows no signs of slowing down and is surrounded by an incredible stunt team selling amazing hits and action the way only Hong Kong movies can!…

Mr. Nice Guy 1:25:07

1:25:07

In honour of the recently passed great man, Mr Richard Norton, we celebrate his intersection and elevation of Hong Kong action cinema in Jackie Chan’s 1997 Sammo Hung Directed Mr Nice Guy. Richard Norton is irrepressible, chewing scenery and having a blast as he turns the screws on Jackie’s super chef. It is a film of hijinks amidst the backdrop of Melbournes inner city - home to Mr Norton and another late great star Mr Bradley Allen of the JC stunt team. The film is a testament to the humour, humanity and talent of these fallen warriors and we at the AAC bow to you with gratitude for your contributions to our collective joy. RIP Richard Norton and Brad Allen - gone but not forgotten.…

Broken Rage 50:30

منذ 10 weeks50:30

50:30

Beat Takeshi (Kitano) subverts your expectations with one of the best and/or worst (!) most polarising films in recent memory in his 2025 film Broken Rage. Director, Star, Writer and Editor: he hits the major chords with a retired yakuza hitman melody, then riffs into unknown territory with an absurdist parody of the same story. And then came the beats is an apt description of the film which is entertaining, if not bizarre. Also starring Tadanobu Asano, Nakamura Shido II and Jun Akiyama to name but a few - the action is in how your brain violently reacts to what it’s witnessing……

Stuntman (Bonus Episode) 53:42

منذ 12 weeks53:42

53:42

We've all cheered, laughed and been amazed at the phenomenal stunts in Hong Kong action movies over the years: but what about the people behind the stunts? What happens when things go pear shaped? 2024's Stuntman shows that sometimes "the good old days'"aren't always that fondly remembered for some and the old adage of "they don't make them like they used to" is probably a good thing. Starring Stephen Tung as an old school star, Terrence Lau as a newcomer eager to please and Philip Ng as a more safety first stunt coordinator.…

Luc Van Tien Kung Fu Warrior 1:08:40

منذ 14 weeks1:08:40

1:08:40

What looks, smells and feels like a Hong Kong Action movie but is not a Hong Kong Action movie? 2017’s Luc Van Tien! Star vehicle for the incredibly agile and talented Vietnamese/German martial artist and Jackie Chan Stunt Team alumni Andreas Nguyen. If you didn’t know before he was a Jackie Fan and collaborator, you’d know by the end of the film, which liberally homages tropes, gags and set ups, but in a way that is fun and respectful of the material. The plot is meandering and barely there, just like any classic Hong Kong stunt movie but the action is generous and very well done and the characters are colourful and whacky. Featuring the incredibly prolific Le brothers Andy and Brian, as well as some excellent new faces (hello charismatic fighter hench-twins Lorenz and Felix Ruwwe) this is fun romp. Andy Nguyen may not be the new Jackie but the apple is comfortably close to the tree – and thank you for going back to post credit outtakes HAIL TO THE STUNTMEN! #notenoughimpactpowder…

High octane fight scenes, bone crunching action and exhilarating stunts. Jackie takes his blend of action comedy to New York (actually Vancouver but who cares). Non stop thrills and spills with a sexy Francoise Yip, mulleted Anita Mui, Dashing Bill Tung and blink and you miss Emil Chau, it’s the goldilocks of action mayhem. We are all garbage!

Knockabout 1:15:21

منذ 26 weeks1:15:21

1:15:21

Knockabout is Yuen Biao's outstanding debut film in a starring role, directed by Peking Opera "Dai Gor" (big brother) Sammo Hung. This 1979 action romp is deliciously quirky with some of the best martial arts action of the golden age of Hong Kong cinema. Talk about showcase - Yuen Biao has to be one of the greatest tumblers of all time and he proves it here. An acrobatic prodigy, Yuen Biao (aged 22 at the time) displays inhuman stamina and incredible flexibility, as well as tight, crisp martial arts. And that’s not even mentioning top performances by Sammo, Lau Kar Wing, Brian Leung, Mars and a bevy of recognisable stuntmen. An instant classic, enjoy our summary before or after you watch this - and maybe you can explain to us exactly what Yuen Biao is doing on the movie poster art?!…

Take an express train to New Delhi with 'Kill' (2023), a super stylish and rather gruesome Indian Hindi-language actioner. What's the worst that can happen? Murder and robbery, that's what! On a confined train, you want to be careful who you cross. In this case it's Amrit Rathod (Lakshya), an army commando who through a series of events, is now on a journey of revenge. Bandit Fani Bhushan (Raghav Juyal) is determined to get everything he can and they are set for a collision course. The final quarter really goes off the rails - let the Asian Action Cast keep you on track!…

Starring, directed, action directed, presented and planned (whatever that means) by legendary film villain Dick Wei, this Halloween mashup will have you asking, what kind of film has both ninjas and Dracula on screen? A Taoist monk (Lin Kuang-Yung) sends policeman Jiu Mo (Lam Wei) on a journey to hell, to avenge the death of his family by heartless criminal Black Panther (Dick Wei). What follows is a cultural mish mash of beliefs and religions, making Hell seem like a pretty fun place after all. Don’t question the method, just come along for the ride.…

Holy Virgin Versus the Evil Dead 1:06:00

1:06:00

Donnie Yen in a R rated, Category III sleazefest? Now available in an added nudity theatrical cut on BluRay! Holy Virgin Versus the Evil Dead is the English title of this 1991 movie that has it all: wacky cop comedy, unexplained kung fu powers for all and a mystical schlock plot set in a Cambodian holiday. Donnie finds himself a suspect of some gory murders, which have actually been committed by the fiendish and gloriously wigged out Moon Devil (Ken Lo). Along the way he gains some sidekicks including not Chow Yun Fatt, a fantastic cop buddy (Ben Lam) and an ex-wife who kicks ass and loses her clothes occasionally, oops. But it turns out that a Cambodian princess holds the key to a mysterious prophecy that may be the only way to defeat the Moon Devil. There’s so much going on to talk about in this episode of Asian Action Cast!…

She Shoots Straight 1:35:14

منذ 34 weeks1:35:14

1:35:14

In memory and tribute to the late, great Corey Yuen, we honour his legacy by delving into his 1990 action-melodrama, She Shoots Straight. This action packed Joyce Godenzi vehicle takes us into the lives of a blue-blood-esque police family where (Big) Tony Leung marries Joyce’s Mina and brings her into his family of female cops. Everything is cranked up to 11 with the action being some of the most bone breaking, back crunching stunt work you’ve seen. Joyce proves herself an adept fighter with her dancing background as she moves, kicks, punches and parkours with the best of them. The drama is also jacked up with emotional deaths and an incredibly sleazy and uncomfortable performance by David Lau. Corey Yuen himself makes a cameo appearance in traditional Corey style, as a cigarette smoking, sweaty dock worker – ever the working man. She Shoots Straight contains all your Corey Yuen trademarks with visceral action, heightened violence and dramatic tension. This also contains probably the craziest most badass stunt ever recorded with Yuen Wah leaping with a motorbike, must be seen to be believed!…

Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In 1:19:40

منذ 36 weeks1:19:40

1:19:40

Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In is the unicorn of Hong Kong action films, bringing the brash and raw adrenaline of the golden age, with a modern aesthetic, a cohesive if not convenient plot and genuine emotions. Sammo Hung’s presence not only legitimises this film as a proper HK actioner, but his grounded charisma elevates what is already a rock-solid showing by Louis Koo, Raymond Lam, Phillip Ng and many others even when things get fantastic in the best of ways. Don’t expect a perfect film – none of the 90’s HK films were – but Twilight definitely finds that magic formula and sprinkles in its own five spice blend. Director Soi Cheang is definitely one to look out for. Imagine a gang war film where all the Big Brothers are Yuen academy alumni? The beauty of this film is it allows us to dream again - check it out!…

منذ 40 weeks1:15:55

1:15:55

If you want Peak Hong Kong Action Cinema, it’s hard to go past Master Yuen Woo Ping’s 1989 Donnie vehicle, IN THE LINE OF DUTY IV! Sassy police action with young talent, hot bod’s and a new attitude. Donnie Yen is so hard boiled in this he’s practically egg jerky: he plays by nobody’s rules, not even his own. Cynthia Khan wears tight stone wash denim like she was born in them, and worthy alternative to the Rothrock/Yeoh duo she homages in her name. Also starring everyone’s favourite heel (and secret love interest LBH), Michael Wong, who has more stars and stripes than captain America. The action is intense, it is non-stop and not even old ladies are spared Donnie’s disrespect. Watch it before Donnie finds you!…

Raid On The Lethal Zone 54:51

54:51

Raid on the Lethal Zone is Hermann Yau’s 2023 Chinese border force drama, outlining the trials and tribulations of a special drug enforcement group 8077 trying to stop a narcotics shipment while battling nature’s fury on the southeast Asian Chinese border. The colours are drab, the mood is sombre and the calamities befalling our heroes are unrelenting, much like the rain, floods and mudslides. We felt this film had somewhere between 30% - 75% action (your mileage may vary if you don’t count natural disaster as ‘action’). It’s sticky, hot, wet and there’s bugs, drug dealers, thieves and floods – but gosh darnit, special taskforce 8077 gonna get the job done. Derivative? Yes. Engaging? Not really. Well shot? Surprisingly yes! 16% of the Asian Action Cast gave this a thumbs up so if you’re curious, someone here supports you! (It’s Chris)…

The Bastard Swordsman Returns! This 1984 Shaw Brothers effects extravaganza brings you eye popping martial arts with the colour and flare that only an SB production can bring. Norman Chiu and Tony Liu headline this epic showdown against the magnificent Alex Man’s charismatically evil Dugu Wu Di, only to find there is a sinister evil lurking in Chen Kuan-Tai’s underhanded Japanese Ega Clan chief. Spectacular Wuxia sorcery fights the forces of mystical ninja magic, it really is a battle between mighty forces. We have no idea who’s good, evil, wrong or righteous but it was fun trying to figure it out and seeing fortune teller fights, doctor duke outs and whacky attacks!…

You want 90’s Hong Kong action cinema choreographed by Jackie Chan? You got it! 1990’s Outlaw Brothers has some of the best action choreography and stunt work you’ll find in a golden age blockbuster, just no Jackie Chan! Haha, Sike! But you do get a skinnier, moustachier Frankie Chan, Actor, Composer, Martial Artis, Womaniser, Car Thief with a heart of gold. His outlaw bro from another ho, Max Mok with full moon eyes also brings the swoon. This movie was a bodacious amount of fun with Yukari Oshima tearing guys up and a criminally underused Michiko Nishiwaki camping up the joint. The gwei lo bros Jeff Falcon, Vincent Lyn and Mark Houghton make awesome mini-boss fights look electric and fun, definitely worth your time!…

Yakuza Wolf: I Perform Murder 56:32

56:32

Sonny Chiba broods his way through the 1972 yakuza gunslinging romp, Yakuza Wolf! Legendary for his piercing eyes, bushy eyebrows and intense characters, this gem is pre-Streetfighter fame and gives you a peek into the formula before it was perfected. Exploitation at its most gratuitous, as Toei productions go this one is filled with nudity, violence and questionable morales. There are no heroes here, only damaged people with scars and agendas. Yakuza Wolf is a fun urban western directed by Ryuichi Takamori that gets a bit lost in its own labyrinth of vengeance, but presents some beautiful visuals and psychedelic music. If you have fond memories, or are interested in the genre, watch it and join us in a revap afterwards.…

So good we had to return immediately to John Woo’s sweaty gangster tragi-ballad, A Better Tomorrow II, to revel in the blood soaked ballet that inspired so many films (ahem, reservoir dogs). Cobbled together a year after Woo’s original 1986 smash hit, A Better Tomorrow II brings back Chow Yun Fat (but of course!), Ti Lung and Leslie Cheung, but also presents an uncharacteristically grounded performance from the late great Dean Shek, and pre-Stephen Chow villainous Ng Man Tat. It’s been established that Chow is the thief of our hearts, stealing scenes aplenty, but this instalment has some great performances with multiple nominations and awards with huge shout outs to Leslie’s Cheungs heartbreaking phonebooth scene and Chow’s legendary ‘Apologise to the Rice’ scene. Put on your suits and ties, grab your shotguns and gear up with us.…

What happens when you take a Hong Kong comedy director, old, washed up martial arts star and young desperate actor with nothing to lose? A Better Tomorrow, that’s what. John Woo’s 1986 gangster thriller with Chow Yun Fat and Ti Lung reinvented the genre and guaranteed a better tomorrow of heroic bloodshed and tragic bromances for decades to come. No other movie is so iconic, so fresh and so stylish. Chow’s Mark is the definition of scene stealer, the late great Leslie Cheung plucks up as the young cop. Essential viewing if you’re a fan of Hong Kong cinema, relive it with us.…

1:04:41

You could be forgiven for not seeing Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh’s cinema debut in Sammo Hung’s 1984 film, Owl vs Bombo. A pretty face and far cry from her future baddassery, she could not save Sammo's cringy self indulgent movie. Pairing with George Lam's Owl, Hung's Bumbo busts more dance moves than skulls, insistent on pedalling the most awkward romance ever. Credit for not having Ms Malaysia herself as the target of his affections; the cringe to action ratio is leaning the wrong way. The action though, is trademark Sammo Hung and golden era Hong Kong fight cinema. A youthful Dick Wei owns every scene he’s in, with glimpses at James Tien, Chin Kar Lok, Phillip Chan, Stanley Fung. Filled with promise but ultimately as disappointing as a dinner date with Sammo, we watched it so you don’t have to, hear our doves cry.…
