Daughter Of Darkness (1993) @ 滅門慘案之孽殺

At a glance: 
Memorable CAT III fare by Ivan Lai Kai Ming with that girl Lily Chung Suk Wai (Red To Kill 1994, Sexy And Dangerous 1996) where the vulnerable protagonist is an stepdaughter who gets blamed for everythin under the sun, eventually crackin under the slow-cook abuse and goin berserk Terminator-style on the whole family, especially the father, played by a positively pervy William Ho Ka Kui.
Bad news on the doorstep:
Anthony Wong's maverick China cop antiques render it too playful and the comic detracts from the flavour of the film to the point of nausea.
Perennial wonderment:
What are all these former soft porn actresses doin in Hong Kong now? 
I can't remember if I cried:
When Anthony Wong fondles a female corpse and correctly ascertains the time of death based purely on the sogginess of her breasts, passin it off as brilliant police work as a colleague gapes in admiration. 
Reminds me of: 
Red To Kill (1994) and all the other films in which Lily Chung (pic) gets raped.
Watch out for:
Violent end sequence that teaches you how to stab someone to death with a deity figurine.
Most memorable line:
Who needs lines with a DVD cover like that?

Two and a half.

Rebellion (2009) @ 同門

At a glance:
Delayed HK release, from last year. If you take away lead pair Shawn Yue and Chapton To, the flick is pretty consistent example of a low-cost but effective Herman Yau piece, like his The First 7th Night earlier this year. Told like a one-night-only gangland epic, Shawn Yue plays fighting ace Po, the unwillin temporary triad boss of the five-gang strong East District. Chaos is the order of the day due to a hit on the big boss and Po must hold the fort until First Lady / Big Sister Cheong Wah (special appearance by TVB's Ada Choi) returns from abroad with further instructions. However, a guessin game takes place within the organisation and everyone from gang leaders to restaurant waitresses joins the chase to protect or destroy the person who did the hit. Chapman To's character, Blackie, wants an all-out war anyway but the cops want in on the game as well.
Bad news on the doorstep:
Only two complaints from me - one is the terribly simple climax and the other is the lazy movie poster. Still, if the money saved on that somehow goes into Yau's pocket, good on you.
Perennial wonderment:
Has Herman Yau gone soft? If anyone thinks his tame Laughing Gor: Turning Point is indeed a turnin point of some sort for a director who is best known for CAT III classics Ebola Virus and Untold Story, they might not be wrong. However, despite a CAT III ratin, Rebellion is actually a story-driven movie which landed the label not because of gore or sex but rather its government's stand on depiction of gangland affairs, if anythin.
Reminds me of:
The time some coppers camped outside my hotel in Causeway Bay because this drunk guy was havin a go at another drunk guy durin a weddin. Nope, Ekin Cheng didn't show up.
Watch out for:
This Jun Kung Shek Leung, who plays a particularly charismatic mob head named Brother Sand. All this actions and words seem totally improvised, as even a Canto-retard friend of mine can point out. Completely entertainin. Turns out he's Portuguese-Chinese and his birth name is Joventino Couto Remotigue Jr. Reminiscent of Anthony Wong as Tai Fei in the Young And Dangerous days, I guess.

Well they could've thrown in some Ada Choi skin, since Elanne Kwong is just too borin as the tag-along chick. Who doesn't want some of that Miss HK '91 skin, crowfeet eyes or not? Shawn Yue's turn is standard while Chapman To's scene-stealin prowess gets another showcase. All characters seem necessary enough. Solid three-star movie for me.

Diary Of A Sex Addict (2008) @ Diario De Una Ninfómana

At a glance:

Belén Fabra

Adapted from a sexy Euro chicklit book, Diario De Una Ninfómana (2008) is a 95-min story about a French lass who was fuckin any hard cock in Spain before fuckin an Italian/French cock who was to be her future boss. Havin been dumped too many times by too many fuck buddies, she falls in love and marries the cunt while he in turn abuses her to the brink of suicide. She responds by joinin a brothel. Is this a joke movie or what?
Bad news on the doorstep:
All the wrong ways of doin erotica is exhibited in this well-shot but totally misconceived piece. Contrived, self-important borgeouis bullshit. The 'redemption' music at the end is hilarious. This bit about a wheelchair-bound whoremonger is ridiculous and forced. Titless Belén Fabra (pic) who plays the nympho protagonist ain't even that hot to begin with.
Perennial wonderment:
How shitass films like these get greenlighted.
Reminds me of:

I give, you take.

Reckless cockass crapass bitchass nympho bitches I know who never admit they like sex as much as they do. Ironically, the stupidity of the main character's monologues help compound this fact, leadin me to the conclusion that girls genuinely really don't have the foggiest about how stupid they sound when they come up with these lines about how sex isn't everythin. Balls.

Mediocre ★★ for the effort. Wanna watch a really genuine and decent movie about sex addiction? Try I Am A Sex Addict (2005) instead.

Women who only have themselves to blame.
