I have just finished watching Fulltime Killer, the Hong Kong action movie starring the ubiquitous Andy Lau (who has appears to have a flash game, which I can’t play because I don’t use flash). This is easily the best Hong Kong action movie that I have seen since my favourite Hard Boiled. It covers all the familiar themes in such movies: sexual tension, romance, woman as pawn, woman as killer, struggle between cop and assassin, rivalry between killers, betrayal and the Final Showdown. I don’t care whether the film is subservient to the genre, because it was so classily executed (pun!). 9/10.
