3.0 out of 5 stars Had potential for more, but IMPRESSIVE nonetheless, June 28, 2001

This review is from: 2000 A.D. (DVD)

"2000 A.D.", starring Heavenly King Aaron Kwok, boosted up Raintree Pictures of Singapore to a new level. Aaron Kwok, Richard Ng, and the bad-guy (forgot his name:P) all give the audience new perspectives. The editing is very original, and sound will blow you away. "2000 A.D." managed to bring audiences something new. With special effects brought to the screen from the team that worked on "INDEPENDENCE DAY", and with Aaron Kwok being the first to fly an F16 in an Asian film, director Gordan Chan never fails at surprising his audience. However, if you're looking for kung-fu, go look for Jet Li classics. If you're looking for something to blow-up and make the walls shake, "2000 A.D." is near perfect. Director Gordan Chan did well, and even though Aaron's acting was at times sketchy, overall performance and plot were well developed. - Priscilla

4.0 out of 5 stars Aaron Kwok shines in 2000 AD, September 3, 2008

This review is from: 2000 A.D. (DVD)

I was really impressed by 2000 AD. The movie has some intense action and each character in the movie are actually characters that you are interested in.

I think it's also one of those movies that will go on to have more than one movie. It has a lot of potential. I also like the fact that they treat Aaron Kwok's character not like a superhuman but a regular guy who doesn't act like an action star. Because the point of the movie is that Kwok's character is involved because of his brother and he wants to find out who killed his brother.

A fun film!

4.0 out of 5 stars John Woo, eat your heart out., July 14, 2001

By

(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: 2000 A.D. (DVD)

There are two main reasons why 2000 AD stands above films such as "Gen-X Cops" and other recent Hong Kong attempts to emulate the Hollywood "style". Reason number 1: PACING! Gordon Chan realizes that all the top Hollywood action films are paced so that any plot problems are glossed over quickly and the audience is kept busy with action and intrigue. In comparison, many of the other Hollywood-wannabe films from HK have suffered from slow or erratic pacing, resulting in an awkward film that feels neither like a Hong Kong film nor a Hollywood one. Reason number 2: Hands-down the BEST SHOOTOUTS since John Woo left Hong Kong. Seriously. The most incredible part of Gordon Chan's virtuoso action scenes is that he does NOT ape the Woo style, but employs his own unique approach. Specifically, he goes for a very hard-hitting, realistic style. No slow-mo or double pistols. It's all about bad-... weaponry and real-world military tactics. The first two gun battles in this film should have any red-blooded action fan jumping out of his/her seat. If you liked the street shootout in Michael Mann's "Heat", then you should get a kick of 2000 AD.
