Flash Point
Donnie Yen December: Week 1
Hello, everyone, and welcome once again to the internets movie review column that has never had to jump from one building’s roof to another building’s roof in order to continue the pursuit of a bad guy that just did bad guy things, The Gratuitous B-Movie Column, and I am your host Bryan Kristopowitz. In this issue, issue number five hundred and seventy-nine, Donnie Yen December begins with the 2007 action flick
Flash Point.
Flash Point
Flash Point, directed by Wilson Yip (appearing under the name Yip Wai Shun) is an oddly compelling Hong Kong action crime flick. The story isn’t very original and it’s hard to tell what, exactly, is going on for a good part of the time, but the badass charisma of star Donnie Yen and the awesome action sequences Yen creates for the screen (Yen is listed in the credits as the movie’s action director) more than make up for the movie’s shortcomings.

“At THINKARTWORKTT studio we believe that the current social state has perpetuated both a physical and mental distance between us as individuals. Through our Christmas collab, while observing covid19 protocols, we strive to provide a culturally infused, joyous and interactive event for all to attend and enjoy,” curator Fitzroy Hoyte said.
