I decided to create a thread on foreign movies that dealt with issues concerning Hong Kong.

Here are some sample of the movies I've seen,

Chinese Box, Jeremy Irons and Gong Li

Oh yeah in fact I watched both of them! I remembered renting them in Blockbuster long time ago before it closed down! I missed those video rentals though especially KPS video express! You have to thank video piracy for that

In this thread, movies that are filmed in Hong Kong aren't included! I more want to discuss those films that are about HK :)

Some of these movies like Hong Kong '97 was about Hong Kong before the handover but most of the film was not shot in HK. Instead, they shot most of it in Manila's Chinatown!
