Beyond Hypothermia (1996) -* * *
Directed By: Patrick Leung
Starring: Wu Chen-Lien and Shirley Wong
Beyond Hypothermia is a good movie. The plot: An assassin (Wu Chen-Lien) just keeps on killing until she meets a lonely noodle shop owner, Long (Lau Ching Wan). She wants to change her ways, but her employer won't let her. On top of that, another hitman is after her.
What's great about this movie is that the romance and action fit perfectly. All the gunfights are well-staged and bloody, but it also has a heart. Lien and Wan put in outstanding performances.
The climax is very powerful and the only problem I had with the movie is the dubbing, but who cares. You'll be pulled in instantly.
I highly recommend this action-packed gem.
