YesAsia Editorial Description

Easily the most iconic character in Chinese sci-fi literature, Wei Si Li (a.k.a. Wisely) has made his foray onto the silver screen numerous times already. Many actors have portrayed the kung fu adventurer created by famed writer Ni Kuang, including popular actor and action choreographer Chin Ka Lok, who takes his turn in the 1990 Golden Harvest movie Bury Me High. Written, directed and produced by veteran filmmaker Tsui Siu Ming (Champions), who also plays the second male lead, Bury Me High casts a formidable group of actors in a story of mystery, action, and military intrigues adapted from one of the best-selling Wisely novels.

Wei (Corey Yuen) and Yuan (Paul Chun) are masters in the art of feng shui. Together they locate a site in a certain Asian nation which, when used as one's grave, can yield absolute power for his/her descendants. Yuan intends to take it for his own use, leading him to fight with Wei, who forecasts that it will only produce a dictator. Wei is only saved from Yuan's deadly killers by a laborer named Wang, so he gets the poor guy a grave that will bring wealth to his offspring. Years later, Wang's daughter Anna (Moon Lee) becomes the head of an IT empire, but money troubles force her to get in touch with Wei's son, Wisely (Chin Ka Lok). Together with Wisely's geomancer friend Chen (Tsui Siu Ming), the group goes to the burial site to investigate their ancestry. Meanwhile, the government of that country is in danger of a military coup staged by a ruthless general (Yuen Wah), who is none other than the son of Yuan...

Bury this movie low Customer Review Rated Bad 4 - 4 out of 10
"Bury My High" is a ham-handed mess of a movie. It has something to do with a down-on-its-luck computer company run by Moon Lee, a military coup in a Vietnam-like country, a Viet Cong-like insurrection in the same Vietnam-like country, a computer hacker dying of a peculiar brain disease, and feng shui, lots of feng shui. How those pieces fit together was never quite clear to me, even after watching the movie twice.

The film features lots of gunplay and a few well-choreographed fights, but unfortunately fails to make good use of either Moon Lee or Sybelle Hu, whose presence in this film was the primary reason I purchased it. Miss Lee does look fetching in an evening gown in one scene, but her fighting skills are shelved for most of this dud.

The film contains some humor; unfortunately, most of it is inadvertent. For example, when Miss Lee tries to learn who is spreading a computer virus, she asks how many computer whiz kids of Chinese descent between the ages of 15 and 25 there are in the Los Angeles metro area. The answer: Six. Six!?! Yeah, right.
