Storm Warriors


Storm Warriors
Cantonese, English Subtitles
2009, 111 minutes
5 Stars

Aaron Kwok and Ekin Cheng once again become Wind and Cloud in this sequel to Storm Riders wich starts right in – there are no set up options, so just be sure your Subtitle button is on. Once again, they are called upon to fight and save China, this time from the Japanese warlord Godless. Again, far more martial arts than story – but do we care? As one reviewer said, this is pure, unadulterated 'guilty pleasure!'  This time, in order to fight Lord Godless, one of our Hero's must become Evil. There is a love interest in both movies, but Rainy Day really doesn't know why. Perhaps she's jealous? Rainy Day really liked the choreography of both movies, and the stylized photography from stop action to slow motion to mach 9. This would be fun in 3D.
