Customer Reviews of Hot War
Cool Idea, Suffers from Lack of decent Script Tango One (Ekin Cheng), Blue (Kelly Chan), and C.S. (Jordan Chan) are scientists working for the CIA's 'subliminal message division.' When an enemy terrorist (Terence Yin, sporting a bleached- dye job gone wrong) called Alien, begins kidnapping scientists throughout the globe, the CIA is alerted.
The trio, close friends, have been working on a way to subliminally program the world's first 'super soldier'. Using this technique, they have been able to alter the programming of CIA agents minds to become effective'combat' agents. When Alien target's C.T., a tragic accident occurs and Tango and C.T. undergo the 'virtual' training to rescue Blue.
I enjoyed Hot War, and I'm a real fan of Ekin Cheng, but I found Hot War to be only only an "Okay" movie. Mostly, because the dialog was awful, and the script/subtitles poorly handled. The English speakers delivered their lines poorly and almost incomprehensibly, and with the emotional quality of corpses. Some of the computer sequences were badly handled, and really unrealistic, and overall the scenary and costumes were very drab and gray.
What I DID like about Hot War, was the topic. Subliminal messaging: How far would the government go with this? What REALLY is reality? Or is it just what Uncle Sam tells us it is? Also, the past history of the three major characters from the orphanage days, would've been interesting to explore. As usual, Ekin Cheng was excellent, but this movie suffered from a slow start and the lack of a decent script.
I'd say this was rental fare, rent it, and if you like it, buy the video.
hmm......this is not what expected....
Ekin Cheng became the next badboy after making movies like ' young & dangerous' ' Meanstreet Story' and such. i guess he is like the next andy Lau( BECAUSE EKIN CHENG HAS LIKE MARTIAL ART MOVIES WUXIA PEIN STUFF AS WELl) the other actor is very famous also. but i forgot his name..sorry
what happens in the movie is that these 3 scientists invent a program tat can make people like the ultimate fighting machine. and the evil terrorist, Alien kidnaps one of them and kills one of them's fiance.
filled with anger, ekin and fung(ill jus call him that) test out the program on themselves. so they can rescue their friend Kelly.
the program domake them super fighter. but there are side effects.....and.....
this movie dissapointed me because Hong Kong cinema in the late 90's has not made a well-made masterpiece yet.( maybe the young & dangerous, and storm riders....) Ekin cheng still is the man.
cooooollll
really i have spend 1 week just to see this film again and again.. it's really interesting.... everyone like the 2 VR warriors but i like Alien most.... he makes the film better than it is. i see that he is diferrent from any tetorrists i have ever seen before.. he so cool.. and i like the way he fight.
however this film is so alike the Matrix.. i dont like that point.. that's why its only 4 stars ;) any one who know ab the actor playing the role of Alien please tell me.. thank u
