HK films

208.33.242.2

There are tons of trash copies of HK films floating around.
I am not sure how the copyright stuff works, but it seemed like for a while anyone could grad the rights to pictures, and these knock off companies were shipping them out in force.
There are tons of bad dubs out there.

Plus, videotaped degrade over time, so try for a DVD release- something more official.

MY tak on Bullet in the HEad is that there is a lot of political, historical stuff going on there, that is clearly not as acessible to white american as just the shooting, but many who know the original language and the culture seem to think of Bullet ITH as a great work.

Killer, HArd Boiled, A Better Tomorrow I or II (I think Woo did those, right?) might be better to start with
Also look for director Tsui Hark -

Jet Li;s High Risk is a pretty cool action movie with gunplay (like Die HArd)
