[glow=red,2,300]THE INAUGURAL ADELAIDE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL[/glow]
SO CLOSE
Hong Kong
Directed by Corey Yuen 2002
This session was packed out: I swear there were people hanging from the rafters, or at least it seemed that way. And the film started well, flinging gorgeous women around with lots of action and plenty of techie goodness. Karen Mok is always great to watch, although I for one (and I know I'm not the only one) missed seeing her legs. Hsu Qi carried her part with elan, while Vicki Zhao Wei won dozens of new fans.
In fact, the combination of the three women dizzied large sections of the audience: I don't think anyone needed oxygen, but it was a close thing. And I'm pretty sure that, of those present that evening, not many will now remember any US offering featuring three supposed action heroines. Heh heh.
