Luc Besson is bringing a ‘Taken’ prequel to NBC

"Taken 3" Korean Theatrical Poster

Luc Besson (Lucy), who co-wrote and produced all three of the Taken movies, is producing a Taken TV series for NBC.

According to Deadline, the series will be a prequel to the movies and will reference Bryan Mills’ “particular set of skills” that he “acquired over a very long career.” Since the series is an origin story, we assume that Liam Neeson will not be reprising his role as Mills.

The upcoming Taken series is not the first time a Besson production made its way to the small screen. In the past, Besson’s La Femme Nikita (1990) and Transporter (2002), were also adapted to TV.

We’ll keep you posted as we hear more.

Jason Statham hits the small screen with ‘Viva La Madness’

"The Mechanic" Japanese Theatrical Poster

"The Mechanic" Japanese Theatrical Poster

Jason Statham is coming straight to your living room! In 2013, Statham (Crank 2) acquired rights to J.J. Connolly’s novel Viva La Madness (follow-up to Layer Cake). The project, which was expected to be a motion picture starring Statham, remained in limbo for nearly 2 years; but as of today, THR announced that Viva will now be a TV series. Statham is still the star (filling in Daniel Craig’s shoes). No network is currently attached.

So what can we expect from it? Here’s the rub, via Amazon: Viva la Madness moves to international crime with trans-Atlantic drug deals, money laundering and high-tech electronic fraud, portrayed with the same uncanny believability. The anonymous hero of Layer Cake is pulled back into the drug game before he can escape to a sunny retirement.

Expect more updates from Viva La Madness in the future!

Undeclared War (1990) Review

"Undeclared War" Chinese DVD Cover

“Undeclared War” Chinese DVD Cover

Director: Ringo Lam
Cast: Danny Lee Sau Yin, Tommy Wong Kwong Leung, Peter Liapis, Vernon Wells, Olivia Hussey, Rosamund Kwan, Louis Roth, Dean Harrington, Victor Hon Kwan, Mars, Jonathan Isgar, Brad Kerner, Mark King, Jameson Lam
Running Time: 103 min.

By Paul Bramhall

In 1990 it seemed Ringo Lam could do no wrong. Having established himself as a director of realistic and gritty action thrillers with his …on Fire series (City on Fire and Prison on Fire were both released in 1987, followed by School on Fire in 1988), the production company Cinema City decided to put their money where their mouth is. Armed with a sizable budget, Lam was tasked with helming the action movie Undeclared War, with the intention of breaking the international market.

Shot almost entirely in English, on release the movie tanked both critically and financially. Much like Kirk Wong’s Taking Manhattan made a couple of years later, it seemed Hong Kong audiences simply weren’t ready to go and watch a local movie where they’d have to read subtitles, and the result was a box office bomb. Internationally it didn’t fare any better. Up against action flicks like Die Hard 2, what was considered a big budget production in Hong Kong still didn’t stand a chance when compared alongside Hollywood blockbusters in the same vein.

The result was Undeclared War quickly became forgotten, destined to become an entry in Lam’s filmography that would either be overlooked or glazed over whenever discussing his work. Watching the movie 25 years on from when it was first released though, it’s fair to say that there’s a lot to enjoy. The grittiness that Lam had become known for is arguably present and accounted for, while the flair for action that he’d cement with Full Contact in 1992, is here clearly a work in progress, but still solid nevertheless.

Despite having a cast which has many central characters played by gweilos, a fact which hardly inspires confidence from a 1990 Hong Kong movie, surprisingly all involved turn in serviceable performances. Beginning in Warsaw, a CIA agent played by Peter Lapis witnesses the brutal murder of the U.S. ambassador, including his wife and child, at the hands of a terrorist played by Vernon Wells. Many will probably recognize Wells as the apocalyptic gang leader pursuing Mel Gibson from Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior. The Australian actor also famously played Bennett, the memorable villain from the Arnold Schwarzenegger vehicle Commando. After tracking Wells to Hong Kong, Lapis is reigned in by the local law enforcement, played by Danny Lee, of The Killer and Tiger on the Beat 2 fame (which was made the same year). Eventually of course, Lapis and Lee end up putting aside their differences and team up to take Wells down.

There are plenty of other familiar faces in the mix as well, from Rosamund Kwan, playing a news reporter and Lee’s girlfriend, to Mars, here in a rare bad guy role playing one of Wells’ lackeys. It’s a mix that almost certainly shouldn’t come together, but perhaps due to having a talent like Lam in the directors chair, and a script that avoids being hokey, Undeclared War succeeds at being a tight little action flick. It may not be the big budget effort it was aiming to be, but with expectations lowered, it’s definitely a unique entry into the genre and keeps up a brisk pace throughout.

The script was penned by multiple writers, and amongst them is Louis Roth, who is probably the reason why the English lines hold together so well. Roth is one of those actors who’s in the background of so many Hong Kong movies of the era, perhaps most famously as the customer on the receiving end of Chow Yun Fat’s “You don’t like my rice!?” line from A Better Tomorrow 2. Here he also takes on the role of a character vital to the plot, however I’m sure his biggest contribution, considering what many English language exchanges are like in HK movies of the era, must be his work on the dialogue. Both Danny Lee and Rosamund Kwan’s lines are almost all in English, and they deliver them with aplomb, with no unintentional moments of humor in sight.

For fans of Hong Kong action and Lam’s realistically gritty style of film making, both are present and accounted for, although perhaps in a different way than audiences at the time were hoping for. The assassination of the U.S. ambassador takes place before the movies title has even appeared on screen, and throws in machine gun totting nuns, explosions, and a helicopter for good measure. The type of blood squib in use also has a unique look to it, similar to the style used in Johnnie To movies like Exiled, when someone gets shot a cloud of red mist erupts from the victim. It’s just as unrealistic as the gallons of blood erupting from a gun shot wound, but it’s definitely visually arresting, and gives the violence a different feel from many movies of the same elk.

Lapis also shows a welcome abandon in his action scenes, seemingly not afraid to get thrown around and take some falls. An exciting foot chase that has him in pursuit of Wells ultimately ends up in a confrontation with Mars, which has them falling down stairs and going at each other on a bridge with anything they can get their hands on. Another scene has him get into a fight with Lee, which sees the both of them scrapping it out in a brawl on the street that doesn’t pull any punches. In many ways it’s Lapis’ lack of gracefulness which makes the action more exciting, as it makes it more relatable, especially in a speed boat chase sequence were you can see he’s visibly clinging on for dear life.

The fact that Lee and Lapis spend almost half of the movie locking heads with each other also makes the respect that eventually forms between them seem more believable. They both bring a down to earth type quality to their characters, and by the time they team up, a lot of their banter is genuinely funny and believable. What’s especially refreshing about Undeclared War is the way Lapis is the butt of many HK situational jokes. In an era where we’ve seen Jackie Chan play the fish-out-of-water in an endless stream of Hollywood movies, whether it be paired with Chris Rock, Owen Wilson, or whoever else, it’s nice to see a movie that puts the shoe on the other foot. Lee is the one calling the shots as the Hong Kong local, and Lapis is the American on foreign soil who has to try and fit in, and it remains that way throughout.

In fact the whole movie does well to play off the tensions between the local HK police force, the British authorities in charge, and the American CIA trying to call the shots. The political subtexts and character relationships aside though, Undeclared War was made as an action flick, and on that basis it delivers. During its 103 minute run time there should be enough gun shots, grenades, explosions, and chase sequences to keep any fan of Hong Kong cinema happy. It may not be Ringo Lam’s best work, and there are a couple of glaring plot holes (look out for Lee getting shot in the arm, then in the next scene miraculously seeming to be completely fine!), but for a slice of HK action from the territories golden era, you can do a lot worse.

Has ‘The Raid 2’ director popped his ‘Blister’?

"The Raid" Japanese Theatrical Poster

“The Raid” Japanese Theatrical Poster

Back in March of 2014, director Gareth Evans (The Raid 2) told Crave: “I don’t have any plans to do The Raid 3 within the next two or three years so I’m going to take a break from that franchise for a bit… I want to do some some things outside of Indonesia for like two films, then come back to Indonesia and shoot The Raid 3. I have another one I want to shoot with him first. Still in the action genre and it’s something that [Uwais] needs to train for for a fair amount of time.”

There’s a possibility that Evans is talking about Blister, a film with Raid 2 stars Iko Uwais and Yayan Ruhian, that’s apparently in pre-production phase, as hinted by his latest tweet.

Evans describes Blister as his take on “the contemporary American gangster story with echoes of The Wild Bunch.” This remark should come as no surprise, since Evans expressed his love for the Sam Peckinpah classic in our interview with him back in December of 2013: “Peckinpah invented action cinema, the editing style, cinematography, fluidity – everything I’ve stolen has been from him,” said Evans. Along with Wild Bunch, Evans cites Jackie Chan’s Armor of God and John Woo’s Hard Boiled as the three movies that have have influenced him the most.

Updates: In a November (2016) interview with Impact’s Mike Leeder, here’s what Evans said about this project: Blister is very much something I want to revisit – sometimes you need certain elements to line up just right – especially for a project as ambitious as that one and unfortunately (despite the best intentions of everyone involved) it didn’t quite come through. We prepped that film pretty thoroughly so I do hope, further down the line, it will become a reality. We had far too much killer material for it to end up sitting on a shelf.

Kickboxer | aka Once Upon a Chinese Hero (1993) Review

"Kickboxer" Chinese Theatrical Poster

“Kickboxer” Chinese Theatrical Poster

Director: Wu Ma
Cast: Yuen Biao, Shirley Lui Sau Ling, Yuen Wah, Yen Shi Kwan, Sheila Chan Suk Lan, Wu Ma, Gam Sap Yee, Chen Shan, Tai Bo, Anthony Carpio, Chu Tau, Louis Roth, Yuen Mao, Corey Yuen, Max Kasimsky, Leung Kwan-Keung
Running Time: 92 min.

By Paul Bramhall

There aren’t many people out there who would disagree that Jet Li being cast as Wong Fei Hung was an inspired choice. In 1991 director Tsui Hark revived the Wong Fei Hung character with Once Upon a Time in China, and Li went on to play Hung in 3 official sequels and 1 unofficial entry into the series. However something always bothered me about Once Upon a Time in China, and that was the fact that it had one of the greatest kung fu stars in the history of the genre, Yuen Biao, in merely a supporting role. The star of such classics as Prodigal Son and Righting Wrongs in a supporting role!? It just didn’t seem right.

For fans of Biao, it must have come as a great relief that just a couple of years later, Kick Boxer was released. Made almost as if to specifically alleviate the frustrations of those who wanted to see him front and center in a Wong Fei Hung tale, the production brings with it plenty of familiar faces from Once Upon a Time in China. Wu Ma steps into the directors chair as well as co-starring, the villain from Once Upon a Time in China, Yen Shi Kwan, here plays an incorruptible police captain, and Anthony Carpio takes on assistant action direction duties on top of appearing in front of camera.

Biao produced the movie (even having his Yuen Biao Films logo in the opening credits), and here plays a mischievous rascal called Lau Zhai, who’s trying to be taken on as a student of Wong Fei Hung. In 1993 the prospect of anyone other than Jet Li playing Fei Hung would be considered preposterous, so the script wisely sidesteps the whole issue, by having the character be absent from proceedings due to ‘traveling in Asia’. Biao and his friend, played by Wu Ma, have been in Hong Kong where they’ve picked up some herbs for the Po Chi Lam clinic. However unbeknownst to them, opium has been hidden in the packages they’re carrying, which ultimately leads to Biao being framed, and subsequently embarking on a mission to clear his name and redeem his reputation.

Both Wu Ma and Biao’s careers were often wildly uneven during the 90’s. While Ma continued to act in several movies per year, his directorial efforts around the same period, namely the likes of Exorcist Master and Circus Kids (which also featured Biao), were only average at best. Biao on the other hand seemed to be having a go at everything, from new wave wuxia like The Sword Stained with Royal Blood, to Filipino action cheapies like Tough Beauty and Sloppy Slop, to trying his hand at directing with A Kid from Tibet. As uneven as a lot of their output was though, for Kick Boxer their collaboration was one that would reap rewards for fans of Biao in action.

Apart from the cast members already mentioned, Kick Boxer deserves extra points for its villains, which come in the form of Yuen Wah and Chang Shan. The prospect of seeing Biao face off against either of them would be enough to warrant a watch, however with both of them onboard, expectations are understandably raised. Biao and Wah faced off against each other several times over the years, from Eastern Condors to The Iceman Cometh, and Biao must have recognized how much he works well paired with Wah, as he also brought him on board for The Kid from Tibet. Kick Boxer sadly marked the last time they’d go at it, so in many ways acts as a footnote to one of Hong Kong cinemas greatest kung fu pairings.

Everyone in the cast performs well though, especially Yen Shi Kwan as the gold shoe wearing police officer. Shi Kwan has one of the most recognizable faces in kung fu cinema, usually playing a memorable villain whether it be in old school classics like The Master Strikes, to new wave classics like Iron Monkey, also made in 1993. In Kick Boxer he gets to take a break from playing the villain, taking on the role of an upright police captain, and father to a female newspaper editor that Biao takes a liking to. Notably he’s also an asthmatic, which could well be a nod to Lam Ching Ying’s character in The Prodigal Son. Unfortunately playing a good guy doesn’t mean he gets any less of a painful demise, with a confrontation against Wah ending on a particularly cruel note.

While Kick Boxer clearly doesn’t have the same budget behind it as the likes of Once Upon a Time in China, it more than makes up for it with the action and creativity on display. At one point Biao and Shi Kwan engage in a game of chess on a human sized playing board, which sees them flipping and kicking chess pieces at each other set to an electric guitar rendition of the famous Wong Fei Hung theme. It’s random, but it keeps things entertaining. The movie also utilizes the bullet point of view shot that Ringo Lam created for his movie Full Contact, made the year prior, only instead of it being Chow Yun Fat against Simon Yam, its Yuen Wah against Yuen Biao. It’s these small touches and flourishes that help to elevate Kick Boxer above many of the similarly themed new wave movies that were coming out around the same time.

Of course the most important part in any kung fu movie starring Yuen Biao is how the action measures up. Thankfully he gets plenty of opportunities to shine, from an initial fight on a cruise liner against a group of angry waiters, to the finale, which sees him go on a one man rampage in the mansion where Wah resides. His physical dexterity is on display front and center, throwing out some kicks which seem to come from impossible angles. The promise of having Yuen Wah and Chang Shan as the villains also isn’t squandered when, having disposed of several of their lackeys, Biao gets to first take on Shan, decked in a sharp black suit and armed with a dagger, and then Wah.

Both fights feature some painful looking falls, and Wah’s fight in particular is entertaining, as every time he strikes a pose it’s accompanied by the sound effect of an eagles cry. Like any new wave movie of the era, there is wirework, however it’s used sparingly, and mostly to enhance impacts. Biao choreographed the action himself, along with another of the Seven Little Fortunes, Yuen Mao, who worked with Biao again on Circus Kids. It would have been great to see a series of Lau Zhai movies, but it apparently wasn’t to be. Biao wouldn’t take on action director duties again until several years later, and he never really went back to the type of mischievous character with a heart of gold that he portrayed so well in the likes of Prodigal Son and Dreadnaught.

As it stands though, Kick Boxer is a worthy entry into both Biao’s filmography and as a new wave kung fu movie. With the recent reboot of Wong Fei Hung in 2014’s Rise of the Legend, which seemed to do away with everything that makes these tales so entertaining in the first place, Kick Boxer is well worth seeking out as a reminder of why Hong Kong cinema was so great.
