Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - It's no Bogart or Cagney, But it's not bad!!!
Has plenty of action. Good story line. And I like the setting. Especially the buildings and the color tones. Not bad. Don't know what all the one stars are all about. They probably saw a different movie. This is "Blood Brothers" with Daniel Wu, and Shu Qi. Produced by John Woo and Terence Chang. Directed by Alexi Tan. Chinese film noir. Not too shabby! Love it!!!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Better than it's rating
I'm not sure if I got a different disc than what's being offered here but it looks just like this one and I didn't experience any problems. Yeah, it's subtitled but I prefer to hear it in it's original language anyway. The movie itself is very good. I think people see John Woo and so they were expecting a high octane action flick but this actually has something pretty nifty in it which is called a story...hmmm. It's not extremely original but it plays out very well. The basic story revolves ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Tears of the Gunmen
Perhaps it is because I watched "Blood Brothers" after watching the horrendous August that "Blood Brothers" seemed a bit slow, but fairly interesting. Shu Qi who glowed in The Transporter does a good job as the lovely showgirl Lulu who dreams of being a film star. Her costumes alone made me like the picture. Chang Chen who was in Happy Together plays the assassin Mark who develops an attraction to Lulu. The three "blood brothers" who come to Shanghai do good work in the film. Most impressive ...

BLOOD BROTHERS
[Tian Tang Kou]

(Hong Kong - 2007)

DVD aspect ratio: 1.78:1
Theatrical aspect ratio: 2.39:1 (Super 35)
Theatrical soundtrack: Dolby Digital

John Woo's name features heavily on the packaging for this inauspicious DVD release from First Look Pictures, though the film was actually helmed by debutant director Alexi Tan who struggles to contrive an authentic Hong Kong blockbuster. The plot is loosely based on Woo's magnificent ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Woo me, baby
This is one of the more visually stylish genre pics that I saw at this year's Seattle International Film Festival. Although the story is pure pulp and could have stood a little script doctoring, it's shot with the rich tones of a Bertolucci film and plays like a 90-minute dance mix of Sergio Leone's greatest hits. Produced by Hong Kong cinema legend John Woo, and signaling a directorial debut by Alexi Tan, Blood Brothers is a noodle western posing as a gangster saga, with a narrative more than a tad reminiscent ...
