In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Hong Kong cinema reached new heights in productivity and technical expertise - though not necessarily attaining a corresponding pinnacle of quality in terms of script and content. After 1992, the film industry began a period of decline, victim of rising ticket prices, lack of new stars, proliferation of pirated VCDs, and strong competition from American blockbusters. Ironically, the decline coincided with Hollywood's "discovery" of Hong Kong's cinematic talent and a growing international awareness of the miracle of Hong Kong movies. Paul Fonoroff, one of Hong Kong's leading movie critics, has compiled 600 of his highly personal reviews from the last golden age of Hong Kong cinema into this easy-to-use volume for scholars, movie buffs and Hong Kong film aficionados alike. "At the Hong Kong Movies" is the indispensable reference, giving you a unique, inside view of the films of Jackie Chan, Chow Yun-fat, John Woo, Jet Li, Michelle Yeoh and hundreds of others, all from the pen of one of the few Westerners to become an integral part of the Hong Kong movie world - on screen and off.
