Ashes of Time (1994)
Reviewed by: spinali on 2000-04-02
The hottest names HK films futilely act away in this meditative swashbuckler cum spaghetti eastern. Fans of Grain-O-Vision jerk-motion photography and student film stylistic pranks will like this, a cyclical story of swordsmen Cheung and Leung obtaining vengeance for the women in their lives. You can see Maggie's eyes move back and forth as she reads her final soliloquy from cue cards. Pretty awful.

(1.5/4)
