Member Iron_Leopard Posted April 29, 2021 Member Share Posted April 29, 2021 I've only seen "14 Blades" which I like a lot actually. I hope to see more of his movies eventually. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Qing Long Posted May 1, 2021 Member Share Posted May 1, 2021 He doesn't seem very popular among the western niche of China/HK film fans, but he's one of my favorites. I recommend 'Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon' with Andy Lau, Sammo Hung & Maggie Q, White Vengeance with Leon lai Anthony Wong & Liu Yifei, and Dragon Squad with, well, everyone in the HK industry. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member DrNgor Posted May 1, 2021 Member Share Posted May 1, 2021 My favorite of his is probably Black Mask, but I have a soft spot for 14 Blades. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Vengeance is coming on the Hi Yah streaming channel tomorrow night. I'm going to watch it. I've been on a Liu Yifei kick lately so I've been meaning to catch this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member DiP Posted May 1, 2021 Member Share Posted May 1, 2021 Not a fan of Daniel Lee but I thought Black Mask is very entertaining. 14 Blades has good action but the costume design and some cast choices put me off somewhat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member ShawAngela Posted May 1, 2021 Member Share Posted May 1, 2021 Reading the list you put in the first post, and I realize that I have 14 blades, Dragon squad and Three kingdoms resurection of the dragon, but I only watched Dragon Squad so far, years ago. I remember to have enjoyed it, but I'm totally unable to tell anyone how Daniel Lee looks like nor if he plays well, nor what was the movie about, except that there was a lot of action and that Sammo was the lead of a young policemen team, if I'm not mistaken... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His best movies would be his collaborations with Jet Li and Donnie Yen, so 'Black Mask' and '14 Blades'. For his worst - everything else. I find 'Dragon Squad' to be borderline unwatchable.

Guess I'm just a visual kind of guy. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Super Ninja Posted May 3, 2021 Member Share Posted May 3, 2021 Black Mask, What Price Survival and White Vengeance for me. I never liked 14 Blades and I don't consider it to be a good movie, seen it twice and nothing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when she randomly says "Come Drink With Me" in Forbidden Kingdom, you were wishing that it was an invitation to you? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member DrNgor Posted September 25, 2023 Member Share Posted September 25, 2023 I revisted Dragon Squad and liked it more the second time than the first. I also revamped my review: https://abeautifulfilm.blogspot.com/2022/03/dragon-squad-2005.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
