Action, Hong Kong Style

Leap and lunge into Action, Hong Kong Style

Throughout September, GOMA presents the big shots of Hong Kong’s action cinema genre. The performances of Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and Chow Yun Fat – among other action heroes – are being showcased in a reflex-testing cinematic experience. Lovers of film can watch the dramatic choreography of 70 Hong Kong action classics on the big screen during Action, Hong Kong Style. The collection of films is hoped to uncover the global influence of this genre and to celebrate physical feats achieved in the name of cinema.
