Hunting for Words (1080i; 00:28:45) – An interview with scriptwriter and producer Tony Leung Hung-wah The film is casted very well and it includes Yu Rong Guang (TERRA-COTTA WARRIOR), the sweet Perrie Lai Hoi San and the veteran Ng Man Tat. The film is co-written by director Yau and Tony Leung Hung-Wah who has directed and written films like A LAMB IN DESPAIR (1999) and FORBIDDEN ARSENAL (1991).

The Girl at the Clothing Shop Who Laughed at Me When I Hit My Head on Their Low Hanging Light Fitting Hunter?From the description, most people would assume Taxi Hunter is the Hong Kong answer to Falling Down (1993), and they’d be right. It has a very similar structure and trajectory, but it also stands on its own merits, especially since Wong is so good. There’s a great dynamic between him and his co-star Ringo Yu that helps to drive the film. Taxi Hunter" is a 1993 Hong Kong crime thriller directed by Herman Yau. A welcomed film that lives within the same contextual bubble as "The Untold Story" (1993) and "Ebola Syndrome" (1996), "Taxi Hunter is a collaborative build with Yau as the director and the enduringly insane Anthony Wong as central lead. Loving the insanity that comes with "Untold" and "Ebola", I personally couldn't wait to get my hands on "Taxi Hunter", which also shares the CAT III identified build that has such a cult following that makes you want to continually watch more and more. As a film created within the same year as "Untold Story", "Taxi Hunter has some similarities as "Untold" but it fully runs at a different speed that, to a degree, that people should be aware of. Films includes a balanced amount of on-disc bonus features and their usual tchotchkes like dazzling artwork and poster. The audio commentary from the always well-informed Frank Djeng is a must-listen-to inclusion while it’s good to see the interviews with cast and crew, Anthony Wong in particular. Wong plays a meek insurance worker name Ah-Kin who, on the way home from work to see his pregnant wife, gets into a small fender bender with a cab driver. Rather than settle the problem honestly, the cabbie calls over a pair of his friends and they milk the poor guy out of five grand. He gets home late and spends some time with his wife, marveling over how they'll be parents soon enough. This brief moment of bliss is soon spoiled when Ah-kin's wife goes into labor. They don't have a car and so he calls a cab. The first one shows up but is soon co-opted by someone willing to pay more, and when a second one shows up, he refuses to let them in because his wife is bleeding. As he takes off, her dress gets caught in the door and she's dragged down the street to her death.

It got me thinking, what are some other ideas for action movies based on service industry irritants we could make?? Hmmm… In his 18-minute interview, Anthony Wong talks about his life and career, and Taxi Hunter, of course. He has some amusing answers, even if he seems a little uncomfortable in places. I particularly enjoyed hearing how he got into acting by accident, because he joined the TVB actor training course just to support a friend who was nervous about doing so himself. Though like many HK Action films, there is rumor enough for not just pathos, thrills, and anger but also comedy and moments of brevity.Yau even manages a cheeky homage to Taxi Driverin the film just to ensure that everyone knows the debt that’s owed (but not really) to the Scorsese Classic.Though the most fascinating aspect is how Taxi Hunterends the salary man’s descent into violence and grief.One that again both homages Taxi Driverbut is entirely different.Any film that does that kind of high-wire act demands to be seen by any creditable film fan. The TransferPutney taxis provide first class services for all types of journey, e.g., Local minicab journeys in Putney, Airports Transfers from Putney in taxi, Stations, Hospitals, Theatres and long distance taxi service too. After he loses his wife and unborn child in an accident caused by the selfish and thoughtless actions of a Hong Kong taxi driver, mild-mannered insurance salesman Kin (Anthony Chau-Sang Wong) wages a one-man war against the city's most corrupt and sleazy cab operators. Having seen another film recently from Wong and Herman Yau, Ebola Syndrome (1996), I was expecting something a bit more brutal and mean-spirited. Instead, we’re given a very wonderful and dark character study about a man driven to violence. But are his actions justified? An interesting question and, as a whole, a very solid effort from everyone involved. RELATED: Exclusive: Director Steve Mitchell Talks ‘Wings Hauser: Working Class Actor’ Hong Kong film maker Herman Yau's TAXI HUNTER (1993) was made at the same year as his harrowing and disturbing THE UNTOLD STORY, both starring Anthony Wong. In TAXI HUNTER, Wong plays a good-natured insurance agent who has a young wife who is pregnant. One sad night she is rudely ill-treated by a taxi driver who causes her and her unborn baby's death. This makes Anthony start his own war against the city's "bad taxi drivers" as he starts to wipe them out. It turns out that the city has a horrible amount of evil and rudely dangerous and selfish cab drivers who don't care of anything else than themselves.

How to Murder Your Taxi Driver? is an interview with Action Director James Ha. This twenty-seven minute piece covers how he came to be involved with Taxi Hunter, working with Wong and how pleasant he was, films that influenced Taxi Hunter, what taxi drivers were like around the time the movie was made, handling some of the stunt work and ensuring that safety standards were met, memories of specific stunt set pieces that were done for the movie, his relationship with Yau and what it was like collaborating with the director.This more grounded approach isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but there’s somewhat of a melodramatic style to it all (aided by a terribly overbaked score) and an abundance of goofy comedy to keep it from feeling what you might call ‘naturalistic’. Hunts Taxis will not carry more passengers than its insurance or licensing allows. 4. Cancellations

You shall indemnify Hunts Taxis against all losses, costs, damages and expenses arising from any act or omission of any passenger in your party. Taxi Hunter appears for the first time ever on Blu-ray from 88 Films in a 1.85:1 AVC 1080p encodement. The 1993 production looks better than it ever has and has little in the way of source damage, but the granularity looks a little harsh, noisy, and not as natural as I would like to see it. Otherwise, the detail is there, but the darker scenes do lose a little bit of shadow detail. The Audio Though Taxi Hunteris an action film first and an expertly staged and executed one.Anthony Wong is a fascinating and compelling lead as Kin is forced into violence.There’s a light and goodness to the way that Wong portrays him and slowly descending into the pain of vengeance.Constantly awkward Taxi Hunteris at its most thrilling and engrossing as he clumsily executes these drivers for their crimes (which range from rape to assault, and other assorted crimes). So, whilst its unusual blend of violence, melodrama and comedy doesn’t always hit the mark, you’re kept on board Taxi Hunter through the firm anchor of Anthony Wong’s performance and a brave spin on where your sympathies should lie.
