About this deal

TAXI HUNTER is more socially aware of the injustices of the taxi industry and the assholes behind the wheels to be fully exploitation in the sense we've become accustomed to from 90s Hong Kong. It's still pretty funny, violent, and wild with a great performance by Anthony Wong, who claims this film is one of his favorites in his long, storied career. Micheal Douglas spirals out of control in FALLING DOWN, despite the relatable scenarios, which makes a fun parallel to Yau's TAXI HUNTER, both proving normal, mild mannered people can be pushed to the brink all because of one bad day.

Hunts Taxis may subcontract its obligations under this Agreement. You shall not assign, transfer or delegate any of your rights or obligations under this Agreement. Hunting for Words (1080i; 00:28:45) – An interview with scriptwriter and producer Tony Leung Hung-wah How to Murder Your Taxi Driver? is an interview with Action Director James Ha. This twenty-seven minute piece covers how he came to be involved with Taxi Hunter, working with Wong and how pleasant he was, films that influenced Taxi Hunter, what taxi drivers were like around the time the movie was made, handling some of the stunt work and ensuring that safety standards were met, memories of specific stunt set pieces that were done for the movie, his relationship with Yau and what it was like collaborating with the director.You shall indemnify Hunts Taxis against all losses, costs, damages and expenses arising from any act or omission of any passenger in your party. The film is casted very well and it includes Yu Rong Guang (TERRA-COTTA WARRIOR), the sweet Perrie Lai Hoi San and the veteran Ng Man Tat. The film is co-written by director Yau and Tony Leung Hung-Wah who has directed and written films like A LAMB IN DESPAIR (1999) and FORBIDDEN ARSENAL (1991). It got me thinking, what are some other ideas for action movies based on service industry irritants we could make?? Hmmm… Playing out like a sort of cross between Falling Down and Taxi Driver, Taxi Hunter sees Wong play Kin, a mild-mannered insurance salesman whose wife (Hoi-Shan Lai) is expecting a baby. His life is running along smoothly, with a promotion on the horizon on top of the impending new arrival. Hunts Taxis may change these terms and conditions at any time by posting changes online.

I didn’t receive a copy of the booklet or any other physical extras to comment on those. Once again, a shout-out must go to Sean Longmore for his fantastic artwork though. This Agreement and any accompanying quotation represent the entire agreement between you and Hunts Taxis in relation to its subject matter. If there is any discrepancy between the terms of this Agreement and the quotation, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. Though Taxi Hunteris an action film first and an expertly staged and executed one.Anthony Wong is a fascinating and compelling lead as Kin is forced into violence.There’s a light and goodness to the way that Wong portrays him and slowly descending into the pain of vengeance.Constantly awkward Taxi Hunteris at its most thrilling and engrossing as he clumsily executes these drivers for their crimes (which range from rape to assault, and other assorted crimes).

In his 18-minute interview, Anthony Wong talks about his life and career, and Taxi Hunter, of course. He has some amusing answers, even if he seems a little uncomfortable in places. I particularly enjoyed hearing how he got into acting by accident, because he joined the TVB actor training course just to support a friend who was nervous about doing so himself. Taxi Hunter appears for the first time ever on Blu-ray from 88 Films in a 1.85:1 AVC 1080p encodement. The 1993 production looks better than it ever has and has little in the way of source damage, but the granularity looks a little harsh, noisy, and not as natural as I would like to see it. Otherwise, the detail is there, but the darker scenes do lose a little bit of shadow detail. The Audio Having seen another film recently from Wong and Herman Yau, Ebola Syndrome (1996), I was expecting something a bit more brutal and mean-spirited. Instead, we’re given a very wonderful and dark character study about a man driven to violence. But are his actions justified? An interesting question and, as a whole, a very solid effort from everyone involved. RELATED: Exclusive: Director Steve Mitchell Talks ‘Wings Hauser: Working Class Actor’
