Summary: ALL ABOUT AH-LONG!
Review: Chow Yun Fat stars as a truck driver who is raising his son along in this 1989 Hong Kong film directed by Johnny To! Ah-Long's life is complicated when his former wife returns and they try to reform their family! But then, in the end, he goes back to his earlier passion for racing motorcylces! Chow Yun Fat's performance is one of his best (he won the 1990 Honk Kong Academy Award for Best Actor), but I sure did not see the motorcycle bit coming! The climatic race is exciting, but it is like they spliced two different movies together!

Summary: It can be consider as a classic for Yun-Fat
Review: First of all, this movie is not about Yun-Fat holding two guns and shooting whatever comes along. This is a movie about an ex-racer's life. The movie talked about how ah-long (Yun-Fat) met his wife, cheated on her, came pretty close to losing his son, and eventually getting the family back together. Well, many people might think this turned out to be one of those happy ending story, but it didn't. I don't want to ruin this movie for people who have not seen it yet, so I just end by saying "girls, leave those tissues by your side, you will need it".

Summary: All About Ah-Long - A Story that Begs for Tears
Review: I watched "All About Ah-Long" years ago when I was still 12. Now 10 years have passed, I finally purchased the DVD and watched it again. I admit that I cried like baby when I watched it the first time. Now I am 22, I still cried like a baby. The story is just amazingly touching. I especially have to point out the little boy's acting in the movie was excellent. You would want to cry just seeing him cry. Chow Yun-Fat's acting was also very good. This was one of his early movies. I strongly recommend this movie!

Summary: A Chow Must See
Review: More and more, I continue to be introduced the majestic talent and ability of Chow Yun Fat, my favorite actor. This is a tear-jerking, heart-warming drama. For those of you who think all Chow knows what to do is walk around with guns and shoot people, you must see this movie. The little kid in it is hilarious. And Chow delivers one of the best performances of his career. If you love Chow Yun Fat, this is a must-see.

Summary: An exceptional award-winning performance.
Review: This film is about as far from being an insult comedy as onecan get, unless one considers the tragedies of others as comedy. ChowYun-Fat gives a daring performance in this gritty, realistic film about a former motorcycle racer and wastrel turned single dad, set in 1980's Hong Kong. Despite crushing poverty and little chance of ever bettering his life, Ah Long seeks to wring out the last dregs of what life has left for him in order to give his son a bright future. A chance encounter with someone from Ah Long's past changes his destiny, and that of his son. A moving bittersweet story.CYF's portrayal of Ah Long is a long way from the suave and sophisticated killers of John Woo's heroic bloodshed dramas. He gambled on this one and won. Chow Yun-Fat won the Hong Kong Film Award for Best Actor for Ah Long. There is a reason that this film was also nominated for Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenplay, Best Director, Best Theme Song (the haunting "A Long Luen Kuk"), and Best New Performer. 10 out of 10 rating. A must-see for anyone who is interested in seeing the kind of filmmaking that Hollywood no longer produces.

Summary: Ah-Long a Heartbreaker
Review: This is film that has a great star at his best. As Ah-long, a truck driving man trying to bring up his little boy in a walk up flat in a poor neighborhood, he is doing his best. But there is not much hope for doing better. A chance for the boy to star in commercials comes along and rapidly everything changes. And these changes are what make this film so moving. Ah-long has to do some growing up and his choices are what make the film a tragedy. Very good, but be prepared to have a few tears.

Summary: MUST-SEE!
Review: Try to not compare Chow Yun Fat with Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger or Bruce Wills! Try to compare Yun Fat with Robert DeNiro. He gives his best performance as single dad who has ups and downs relationship with his son, Porky. He tries his best to be good father to his son, but Yun Fat's former girlfriend who is mother to Porky becomes involve with the relationship between Yun Fat and his son. Strongly recommend you to watch it and promise you that you will watch it again and again!
