"SPL", "Flash Point", "Hero", "Ip Man" or possibly even "Seven Swords" .............. but surely not "The Empress And The Warriors" or "Twins Effect 2" ?

Never seen Twins Effect 2, I also had to think that I have to exclude mainland movies, compared to Hong Kong Movies.
But there is times where it's set in mainland/shanghai but has completely HK casts etc.

hey,
many HK-China co-productions nowadays anyway so don't kill yourself over that aspect. For instance, did you exclude A World Without Thieves?

It didn't make the cut unfortunately.
I did leave out the Zhang Yimou flicks too.
I'll spoil the list a little, flicks such as In the Mood for Love, CJ7 and Seven Swords are included, even though I think they were in Mandarin? or at least set outside of HK.
Plus I would expect one person; Meeeh, that's not fi hong kong!

I honestly have no idea what you've put in your top 10. You've thrown us off the scent by putting forward the obvious Donnie flicks early. You're crafty Stoo.

So does this mean I havn't got to watch "In The Mood For Love" ? I said I'd finally watch it if it got to number one.
I see "Born To Be King" got in there.... and "Divergence".
Are your top ten going to your real top ten or are you having a mind f**k with us, Stoo?
I'm liking your choices so far.
