Johnnie To's one of my favorite directors too and he is probably the best action movie director in HK right now. The only To flick I'm not too crazy about is PTU but the other movies I have seen are tight :yep:
Top 7 Johnnie To Flicks
1. Fulltime Killer
2. Exiled
3. Breaking News
4. Election & Election II
5. The Heroic Trio & Executioners
I loved The Heroic Trio & Executioners back in the days but I need to re-watch them cause I haven't seen them in years. I also need to watch A Hero Never Dies and The Mission cause I have heard good things about those two.
I have a hard time making lists like this small.
Same here, which is why I'm gonna post multiple lists :P

i actually don't watch a lot of chinese/HK movies, so my list is short, in no particular order:
-Hero
-House of Flying Daggers
-Infernal Affairs
-Shaolin Soccer
-Fearless
-The Killer
-Hard Boiled
-Once a Thief
-
Oooh, hmmm. I don't watch much either,
Hero
Fist of Legend
The Killer
Shaolin Soccer
Iron Monkey

Usually when it comes to Chinese films if it aint Kung-fu, I aint seen it.
So my list is pretty short:
Five Venoms
House of Flying Daggers
Iron Monkey
Hero
Drunken Master
and just about every other jackie chan movie
A Chinese Ghost Story
I don't know if its chinese or not, but I also liked Forbidden Kingdom
and I know its not chinese but Big Trouble in Little China (its close right?)

Ok I can't remember everything I've watched and I'm too tired to think... So here are just random 3 films I really liked:
Infernal Affairs
Lust, Caution
Chungking Express
Bwaahahahaha.
I quite enjoy Chinese/HK movies, just not good at making lists...
