O.T.T Mutant Mayhem with Trailer to Benny Chan's CITY UNDER SEIGE

source Wildgrounds
When I think of Hong Kong Movies I think of good old fashioned crime/gangster thrillers like HardBoiled (John Woo) but I would never think I would see Hollywood style big action flicks with mutants that look like there in joke sumo sponge suits or if you pull at their arms & legs they'll be a stretch Armstrong. Well Benny Chan has went old school back to the 1980's eploitation  style movie with his new 70million Yuan blockbuster CITY UNDER SIEGE.
This movie does look like something out of a Spiderman or X-Men comic book and I beleive they where Chan's inspiration for the movie which can be described as over the top mutant action flick. They dont want to rule the world these mutants they just want to rob a bank and scary the living crap out of Hong Kong city whilst they do it!
I have to say this looks cheesy but fun! starring Aaron Kwok, Wu Jing, Colin Chou and Shu Qi the movie is scheduled for release in Hong Kong/China on August 6th, trailer after the break...

I really wanted to see this whilst it was shown at Edinburgh Film Festival but due to my adventures working in Greece and returning home when it was too late has angered me but the movie did only receive 'ok' reviews.
The movie in question is German Black Comedy SNOWMAN'S LAND directed by Tomasz Thomson in a movie style described as Coen Brother's style dark, unrelenting and vicously funny.

You can check the trailer after the break, sorry there's no subtitles but the movie does look good and if you love Coen Brother satire you will relate easy with this movie...

Zhang Ke Jia is a big favourite with the film festival network and his network continued into this years Cannes festival with the selected movie of I WISH I KNEW.

Now the movie is getting a theatrical release below after the break is the trailer, which does give an overall protrayl of Shnghai, China's largest populated city.

Shanghai, a fast-changing metropolis, a port city where people come and go. 

Shanghai has hosted all kinds of people – revolutionaries, capitalists, politicians, soldiers, artists, and gangsters. Shanghai has also hosted revolutions, assassinations, love stories.

After the Chinese Communists' victory in 1949, thousands of Shanghaiers left for Hong Kong and Taiwan. To leave meant being separated from home for thirty years; to stay meant suffering through the Cultural Revolution and China's other political disasters.
