So Close (2002) |
|
|
Much less disgraceful than Naked Weapon, So Close reunites three beauties from the HK movie industry: Shu Qi, Vikki Zhao Wei and Karen Mok. In this cop and robbers flick, director Corey Yuen isn't inspired at all, apart from using and abusing of the slow-motion buttons and of the wind effects on Shu Qi's hair. High Tech, babes and camera work don't make a film. A meaningful script, a minimum of acting skills and a decent filmmaking do. This example along with Ching Siu-tung's Naked Weapon, proves that an excellent martial-art instructor and action choreographer doesn't necessarily equal to a good film director.
