If mainstream japanese directors can’t successfully create fun live-action versions of NameYourAnime, maybe someone in Hong Kong can do the job? This someone being Wong Ching-po, a visually inspired director. With this film based on a japanese anime, about a young man becoming embroiled in a violent battle against a super-evil boss of the underground. Forcing him to accept his destiny as the protector for all that is good. Looks more than crazy!

Let’s Go! Where? To see the new Wong Ching-Po movie! Stop the presses, because Wong Ching-Po, the director behind overrated triad thriller Jiang Hu, overwrought exploitation flick Revenge a Love Story and simply awful gang drama Ah Sou has made a good film. At least Let’s Go! is entertaining and better than Wong’s most recent efforts, and uses his pretentious filmmaking style in an unexpectedly funny and subversive way. Wong Ching-Po is a decidedly serious director and Let’s Go! is a categorically silly movie. Combine those two logically opposed factors and the resulting product is a strange and also fun flick that simultaneously reveres and sends up the tokusatsu (live-action Japanese superhero) genre. There’s an acquired taste to this sort of thing, but those inclined should be tickled.
