Canto-pop diva Kelly Chen was recently seen in the big screen period epic An Empress and the Warriors alongside Leon Lai and Donnie Yen. Even though she is quite busy as actress, she has not forgotten her primary career as singer, and now the time has finally come for her latest full-length album.

This is reportedly Kelly's favorite song on her new album... [read more]
Jingle Ma (Happy Birthday, Tokyo Raiders) bags one for commercial cinema with the buddy action flick Playboy Cops, featuring the photogenic pairing of prolific Hong Kong heartthrob Shawn Yue (Shamo) and less prolific Mainland heartthrob Aloys Chen Kun (The Little Chinese Seamstress) in his first Hong Kong film. Cutting fine form in matching black suits, the two leads forge believable buddy chemistry and handle the Stephen Tung-choreographed action scenes with suitable dexterity and intensity. Despite its popcorn action-comedy guise, Playboy Cops offers as much drama as it does comedy, capped off with a surprisingly tense and hard-hitting finale. Playboy Cops co-stars TVB starlet Linda Chung ... [read more]

The Canto-pop queen heads into battle for this impressive period adventure, in which she stars as Yan Feier, a determined princess who is given control of her troubled, war torn kingdom.

TVB's answer to Charlie's Angels, 2004 police drama Angels of Mission puts top actresses Sonija Kwok, Charmaine Sheh, and Shirley Yeung on the frontline for a thrilling action-packed series. All Miss Hong Kong pageant winners, the leading ladies back up their beauty and brains with both acting and action chops in this entertaining serial. Though TVB makes many police dramas, few are completely headlined by actresses and filled with such stylish action sequences, allowing the usually soft-spoken starlets to show their tough sides. Award-winning actor Patrick Tam, who returned to TVB briefly in 2003 and 2004 for three series, co-stars in Angels of Mission, along with Shek Sau, Thomas Lam, Stephen... [read more]
