Do you like gladiator movies? War movies? Gangster movies? Kung fu movies? Swordfight movies? Alien invasion movies?

This is a community for any movie with a punch, a kick, a stab, a shot or an explosion, or preferably all of the above and plenty of 'em.

Everything from Armour of God to Zulu, from Above the Law to Zatoichi.

So Future Cops (see here) got a sort-of-sequel 17 years later.

Eastern Kicks does a review.

The one and only Wong Jing returned in 2010 with Future X-Cops, a remake slash sequel slash cash-in of sorts to his 1993 cult trash Streetfighter inspired classic Future Cops. Unsurprisingly, being very much a Wong Jing outing, the film is typically hard to classify, clumsily mixing science fiction, action, romance, family melodrama and, of course, crude humour. At the same time, the film is a bona fide stab at making a big budget Mainland Chinese blockbuster, with special visual effects from noted South Korean team Kinomotive and an all star cast headlined by Andy Lau, with support from a pre-tax evasion disappearance Fan Bingbing, Barbie Hsu (who died tragically young earlier in 2025), Mike He and actress Xu Jiao.

Here are a couple of trailers:

And looking for a higher quality trailer by using the Chinese title, I found the whole movie streaming for free on QQ! Unfortunately only in Mandarin or Cantonese with Chinese subtitles, no English subtitles. And uBlock Origin doesn't block the ads. Also found the first movie, too.
