TWINS EFFECTS 2
Starring: Gillian Chung, Charlene Choi, Donnie Yen, Chan Jo Ming

After the success of Twins Effects, you could've bet your house on there being a sequel, so lo and behold. The cutey twins are back in this vampire comedy flick, but best of all is the introduction of Jackie Chan's real-life son Chan Jo Ming. Donnie Yen, who was the fight choreographer of the first film will have a role in the sequel.

"Jiang Hu" (Chinese title)
Starring: Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, Eric Tsang, Lam Ka Dun

This modern-day triad drama pits Andy Lau and Jacky Cheung together for the first time in over a decade.

NEW POLICE STORY
Starring: Jackie Chan, Nicholas Tse, Charlie Yeung, Charlene Choi

The long-awaited new Jackie Chan Hong Kong flick. Jackie goes back to his roots and makes a new version of his popular Police Story films. With a production team wholly set in Hong Kong this is the sort of film that Jackie fans have been waiting for years to come, never mind the crap that he did in Hollywood.

DRAGONBLADE

This CG movie is the first of its kind to have come out of a Hong Kong film studio. Using real kung fu experts to motion capture the fight scenes into the computer, DragonBlade promises to outclass the likes of Shrek and Toy Story. Add in a medieval China setting, excellent martial arts fight sequences and a promising storyline, then you have something very special indeed.

MEMORIES OF MURDER (released 4 March)

THE EYE 2 (released 18 March)

The Pang Brothers return for a sequel to the world-wide acclaimed horror flick The Eye. Whether they can achieve the same success as the original remains to be seen.

20 30 40 (released 11 March)
Starring: Angelica Lee, Sylvia Chang, Rene Liu

2046 (released 2004)
Directed by Wong Kar Wai
Starring: Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Maggie Cheung, Zhang Ziyi, Faye Wong, Carina Lau, Chang Chen, Su Li-zhen, Kimura Takuya

Scheduled to be released at Christmas time, 2046 is Wong's visionary take on Hong Kong's future in a sort of Blade Runner-ish style. The production has been going on for seemingly ages, but we hope that 2046 will not follow Wong's Ashes of Time, which took two years to film.

The all-star cast in 2046 makes it certainly interesting, but whether Wong can persuade the local people to watch his films - we will see by Christmas. It may give Tony Leung another sure-fire chance to grab a Best Actor award.
