Damn, I’ve only seen 7 out of these 20, 2 of which are in my list. Tsk! Must get grimy hands on more quality movies from the 90s…

FYI Kozo, the City of Glass link is the wrong link.

@Kozo, I didn’t know Stephen Chow is in the LUNG FUNG RESTAURANT. Is the movie came out after ALL FOR THE WINNER?

THANKS FOR YOUR LOVE and SAVIOUR OF SOUL 2 were ANDY LAU worse movies in the 90’s.

If Love HK film run voting for the TOP 80’s HK film then I’ll vote for Shammo Hung, Jackie Chan & Chow Yun Fat movies.

@Glenn, CHINESE FEAST is one of those films that’s fallen a bit by the wayside 15 years later. The DVDs are crap, and current fans are more likely to seek out genre films than food-based Lunar New Year films. Tsui Hark does reappear on this list, but not for TRI-STAR or LOVE IN THE TIME OF TWILIGHT.

@b3n1, you’re the second person who dislikes EAGLE SHOOTING HEROES! Please remember that when we run the WORST HONG KONG MOVIES reader vote. Maybe it’ll make that list, too.

Oh, and not all of Stephen Chow’s movies from the nineties make the list. I’ll give it away right now and reveal that LUNG FUNG RESTAURANT is a no show.

@Jimaur, it would be nice to see lots of Sammo on this list, but let’s face it: he’s an eighties Hong Kong Cinema guy. He still did solid work in the nineties, but by mid-decade he was rather quiet.

@CeeFu, SAVIOUR OF THE SOUL is pretty strange, but it’s got some definite charm. Andy Lau had to make this list more than a few times, and I’d rather it be SAVIOUR than THANKS FOR YOUR LOVE or GAMEBOY KIDS.

One of the twenty movies I voted for showed up this time and I’ve seen 16 out of 20. In total, I’ve missed 10. Something to do the next month

Whoops that 2 with metade fumaca as well. Personally I thought both deserved to be a little higher ranked.

Woo Hoo one of my films made it and that’s he aint heavy he’s my father. Damn I had this on VHS and maybe a shitty VCD copy. Wish they would remaster this on DVD.

I’m pleased with 61-80, especially with dopey love interest Donnie in Wing Chun and God of Gambler’s Return (Chow Yun Fat made we want to quit my job and be a gambler!). But somebody has to explain Savior of the Soul’s position. I luv Andy Lau like everyone else on the planet, but am I missing something with this film?

Waiting with anticipation for the next installment!
