(9)Our Price: US$23.99Usually ships within 1 to 2 daysRelated promotions:September 7, 2009 I like itTo be honest, I am not even a Kung Fu action fan. I saw this movie simply because I heard that it was a very popular
movie. I have to say, I was captivated by the action and the story. . I don't really know anything about Ip Man and I don't know how
accurate the movie is but it is a good story . It makes me respect Ip Man but mostly it makes me realize what a
horrible time it was . I probably will never waste food again ,after seeing Ip Man took the bloody bag of rice to
the family of the dead person.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

(7)Our Price: US$28.49List: US$55.00Save: US$26.51 (48%)Usually ships within 1 to 2 daysRelated promotions:August 3, 2009 History buffI started watching this show in Dec of 2005 but not able to finish it until now. The quality of the disc is very nice . The
picture and sound still good after all these years. I can get into some of the story lines of the first parts.
There is some humor here and
there, especailly about the life style differences between now and then. But, I am not a real history buff so I kind of
lost interest in the middle .That is why
it takes me like 4 years to finish watching this show.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

Destiny Love (DVD) (End) (With Making-Of) (Taiwan Version) DVD Region All
(1)Our Price: US$129.99Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysRelated promotions:July 30, 2009 It is too longI got this show because it is so famous. It took me 5 days to finish the show. I like some of the storylines ,like babies,
art and pottery. It is a nice change from a typical high school or college story.
It is like a love story. The part of the story that happened in Shanghai is very touching. It is like a comedy with some
laugh out loud moments . But, some of the funny parts are plain stupid. I did not feel like laughing but felt the characters' IQ
was coming down rapidly. Overall , I feel the show is too long. It is a bad sign that I did not even care to see them get
married at the end because I have already turned my attention into researching the MV's that Baron Chen starred in.
I like Prince turned into frog so much better. It is more fast -paced with nicer music. Of course, there is Ming Dao too, my
favorite Taiwan actor. Not to say I don't like Ethan Ruan but I would like to see Baron Chen and Joe Chen do something
together in the future.
The quality of this set of DVD is ok , albeit there are little skips here and there. Also, with the high price for this show, I
think it should come with English subtiles so more people can see it. I like Ya Entertainment (Korean) 's products
better because high quality of there discs with no skipps and have English subtitles(they do forget to translate songs)Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

(10)Our Price: US$34.99List: US$89.99Save: US$55.00 (61%)Related promotions:July 29, 2009 I love this showThis is a happy and sad show but mostly happy. When I am a doctor's office and have to endure painful procedures,
I bring two favorite Korean shows in mind:This show and somethign happened in Bali. I try to remember bits and peices
of the stories, the beautiful secneries. Once a doctor was cutting on my face and he was puzzled that I did not move at all. I
almost told him that I was going to laugh out loud when I remember a funny scene but I was afraid to move and make
the doctor's knife slip. Who would have thought these Korean shows can serve medical purposes?Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

products. The only problem with this show is that I cannot watch it too often. The love is so intense and desperate.
I love Jo In Sung and Ha Ji Won. They are very versatile and great. I love their shows. Who would have thought
Ha can play poor Crytstal Lee , serious undercover police woman and then turn around to act in a couple of
very cute movies(100 days with Mr .Arrogant, Love, so divine) ?
I hope Yesasia will bring more good quality shows in the future. I would love to see Sung Yuri in Thousand years of love and Ha Ji Won in Hwang Jin Ye.. My 19 year old sister-in-law is also a funny old love story. Hope to see it on Yesasia's list soon.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

(27)Our Price: US$19.49Related promotions:July 19, 2009 Not worth keepingI liked the movie three years ago but now I felt like the visual and acting are good but the storyline is a bit boring and hard to
sit through it a few more times.Sometimes I love to watch a movie over and over again but not this one. One American white
woman told me once that she enjoyed the choreography and beautiful costumes but generally the Chinese movies could not
attract her enough to buy and keep the movies.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

Meteor Rain (English Subtitled)
July 10, 2009 It is okNothing real thrilling but I like the music. This show is probably for the young diehard F4 fans. The last story
is sort of thrilling but so unrealistic. How could the man take the little girl to USA? They are not
related. Probably no passports etc. Sometimes money does not solve everything. He will
probably got arrested at the airport.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
The Detective (DVD) (US Version)
May 28, 2009 It is differentI thought this was a comedy. So, I was surprised at the storyline and it made me want to finish it all at one time. I like
the color of the film. Felt like an old movie. I like the fact that it was filmed in Thailand. It sures gives it a different feel
,like the language and the elephant being run over. Oveall it is a little spooky for me but I am sure people who are
looking for spooky movie will love it.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

Demi-Haunted (US Version)
May 24, 2009 I would not call it a great movieThis movie was interesting in the beginning but toward the end, I started to lose interest . It has some
funny moments but not fantastic. The concept was good initally but later on it sort of just rambling
. Nicholas Tse looked good in the movie but his story line is a bit too short.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

my money is funnier and has a faster pace. The nice surpise is seeing a lot of the older stars and it is
nice to see Zhang Han Yu (first time ). I am not conviced of the love story between him and Denise Ho but there
are some funny moments between the two of them. The more touching part of the movie is about
the guy and the mother and little girl. That is more convincing than the other two love stories.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
Death Note (Hong Kong Version)
Death Note (Hong Kong Version) VCD
(4)Our Price: US$7.99Usually ships within 7 daysRelated promotions:May 15, 2009 Which ending do you like the best?I have Death note 1, the movie and all 12 of the manga . I got confused toward the ending of the manga
because there were too many characters and subplots. I looked forward to seeing Death note 2, the last
name so I know what the ending is all about. Overall it is not a bad ending. Very simple. I looked
forward to seeing N but N is not even in this movie. I guess the whole story is too long for the movie.
The most powerful scene in the manga was when
Light was screaming when his father died. He finally got to taste what it was like to lose a loved one. But
in the movie, he was so evil that he even tried to kill his own father. The other part of the manga that has
meaning to me was the nothingness that we entered after we die. All the power struggle when we are alive
does not mean much after we die. I love the character of L the best. But in order to know the true story of the death
note , I guess I have to start saving money to buy the complete anime series.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

some disappointments but I think Highway star is a little gem. I like Cha Tae Hyun and I like the storyline. I am so glad
I did not really know what the story was about before I watched it. As far as the quality of the picture, I think it
can be better. For this price, I think we should get a better quality DVD version. But , overall,I recommend this show.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

Love Impossible (AKA: Love of South & North) (VCD) (Hong Kong Version) VCD
(1)Our Price: US$7.99Usually ships within 7 daysRelated promotions:April 25, 2009 Not as funny as I thoughtI bought this movie a year ago because I like Cho In Sung. Somehow, I did not feel like watching the movie until today.
I thought I knew how the movie ended and did not think I would like it. I also thought this was a laugh out
loud movie but it is not. It is kind of like a nice romance story. The only few parts that made me laugh were Cho
In Sung, especailly the part when he had his mouth wide open and water just drooling out of his mouth when the girl was talking to him,
The ending is touching but not realistic. Honestly, I cannot see moving myself a very strange country just because I love
someone.We are talking a lifetime commiment to a cause you don't beleive in and have to raise the kids that way too. That
is like throwing your whole life away.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

myself sit down to watch this movie. The beginning was not that interesting. Then I got into the story and able to finish
it all in one sitting . It actually has some real interesting parts. It is not a laugh out loud movie but enough to keep me
interested. I especaiily like the elevator scene, the opera scene , the dance scene and the police station scene. I got
this movie because of Won Bin but I think the leader of the gang , the detective and the guy who fell in love with the target
actually stole the show.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

(3)Our Price: US$22.49Related promotions:April 12, 2009 I enjoyed itI got this movie because it has the three Chinese actresses I like. I want to see them interacting with each other on screen.
I like the story and enjoyed the costumes, sceneries. I guess I am easier to please than some of the critics. here.
The only thing I don't like is that this DVD cannot be played on my regular TV. My TV rejected this disc so I can only play in
on my computer.It makes it less enjoyable. I got a Korean TV series on the same day and no problem playing on
my regularTV. So, does that mean the quality of this Chinese production is not as good so a Korean disc?Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This)
