BODYGUARDS AND ASSASSINS on UK DVD and Blu-ray

by James Dennis, May 21, 2010 10:56 AM

Asia, Martial Arts

Teddy Chen's period action movie, Bodyguards and Assassins, has continued its stellar run of award successes, recently winning the audience award at the Terracotta Far East Film Festival in London. Nonetheless, opinion hasn't been wholly positive, as a brief flick through the comments sections on Twitch reviews flags up (see the links below).

You can check out the DVD trailer below.

Bodyguards and Assassins is out on UK R2 DVD and Blu-ray from 31st May through E1 Entertainment.

I'll be sharing these over the next several days before I depart,... More »

The Art of Self-Incrimination: A Social Media inflected CHRONICLE

by Kurt Halfyard, February 6, 2012 11:22 AM

*Some Spoilers, Fair Warning*Perhaps a goofy co-incidence that Facebook filed with the SEC to launch its $5 Billion (with a B) initial public offering in the same week as this viral/web advertised film hit cinema screens.
