Tiger on the Beat 2 (1990) Review

"Tiger on the Beat 2" Poster

“Tiger on the Beat 2” Poster

Director: Lau Kar Leung
Cast: Danny Lee Sau Yin, Conan Lee Yuen-Ba, Ellen Chan, Roy Cheung, John Cheung, Chim Bing Hei, Norman Chu, Maria Cordero, Mark Houghton, Phillip Ko, Gordon Liu, Mai Te-Lo, James Wong, Xiong Xin Xin
Running Time: 94 min.

By Z Ravas

Producer A: Hey, we’re doing a sequel to Tiger on the Beat, but Chow Yun-fat doesn’t want to come back. What should we do?

Producer B: Just get the other guy from The Killer!

Do you imagine that’s how it went down? The other guy from The Killer being, of course, the Super Infra-Man himself, Danny Lee! Tiger on the Beat 2 is one of those sequels in name only that doesn’t have any story connection to the first installment, it’s really just an excuse to do another buddy-action flick co-starring Conan Lee. I’d call it a ‘buddy cop flick’ except that Conan Lee doesn’t even play a cop this time around. Danny Lee, of course, plays a cop—please show me an 80’s or 90’s Hong Kong movie where he doesn’t—one who’s tasked with finding his California-born nephew a wife while he visits Hong Kong. This simple set-up very soon finds them bumping into an escort/scam artist played by Ellen Chan, who is on the run from a vicious drug dealer (Gordon Liu, also returning from Tiger on the Beat but playing a different character). This ends up being the perfect excuse for a string of dynamic action setpieces, courtesy of director Lau Kar-Leung…

…though not every setpiece went according to plan: Tiger on the Beat 2 tends to be overshadowed by its predecessor, but chances are if you’ve heard of the sequel it’s because of its reputation as the film that put the kibosh on Conan Lee’s career. There’s an outrageous stunt gone wrong that occurs fairly early in the movie’s runtime—and, this being Hong Kong action cinema, the footage was kept in the film!—in which Conan Lee suffered a severe injury. The complications Continue reading

This you can trust: Cameras set to roll in 2027 for ‘King Conan’ starring Arnold Schwarzenegger

For more than a decade, King Conan, also known as Legend of Conan or Conan the Conqueror, has been stuck in development limbo. The film was meant to be a true sequel to John Milius’ 1982 classic Conan the Barbarian, with Arnold Schwarzenegger returning to the role that made him a star. But after more than 25+ years of announcements, studio hopping and interviews, the project kept stalling… until now.

City on Fire has been following this story since day one, and for a while it really seemed like the movie was finally happening… until it wasn’t. Then it was back on again. And off again. You get the idea. Here’s the breakdown:

In 2001, Milius himself had completed a script, titled King Conan: Crown of Iron, centering on an older, settled King Conan, weary and softened by years on the throne, who is drawn into one last, reluctant quest. Milius was set to direct and Continue reading

‘Rush Hour 4’ is moving ahead as director Brett Ratner hitches a ride with President Trump to scout filming locations in China

For over a decade, Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker have kept the door open for Rush Hour 4 — and even without a set production date, the fourth film is starting to feel like a sure thing, but not without some speed bumps.

Rush Hour 4 is still in motion, with President Donald Trump reportedly giving things a push by encouraging the Ellisons to move forward, something that ultimately helped secure the green light from Warner Bros, who hold the rights.

On top of it, Brett Ratner – the director of the previous Rush Hour films, as well as the recent pro-Trump Melania documentary – is back in the director’s seat Continue reading

Demon Dancer: Sua/Nara (2026) Review

"Demon Dancer: Sua/Nara" Poster

“Demon Dancer: Sua/Nara” Poster

Director: Attila Korosi
Cast: Jiyeon Han, Anita Korosi, Won Hee Lee, Isabella Rose, Wondae Son, Shinyoung Moon, Eunhee Jeong, Joseph Kim, Jayden Moon-Dell, Hyonkuk Pak
Running Time: 83 min. 

By Paul Bramhall

In 2025 audiences were hit with the double whammy of the John Wick spin-off Ballerina, and the massively popular Netflix movie KPop Demon Hunters, so it was perhaps only a matter of time before someone thought to combine the 2 and create a ballet dancing demon hunter. That someone comes in the form of Yugoslavia born filmmaker Attila Korosi, who’s created the U.S. and South Korean co-production Demon Dancer: Sua/Nara as a self-proclaimed “love letter to anime.” Indeed the quote “No matter how many people you lose, you have no choice but to go on living.” is the first thing we see onscreen, credited as an ‘Anime Proverb’ (even though it’s actually taken from a character in the popular Demon Slayer anime series).

While Ballerina and KPop Demon Hunters had the backing of a major studio and streaming giant respectively, Demon Dancer: Sua/Nara doesn’t have the luxury of either, instead being an ambitious low budget indie production. The budget limitations are evident to see onscreen, and in a world which has gotten used to streaming gloss and seamless greenscreen work, for some audiences the gap may be a jarring one. However Korosi wisely kicks things off with Continue reading
