Pang brothers - opinions?

[EvaUnit02]

Have these guys made any noteworthy movies that are simple outstanding? Most of them look average to slightly above average.

I'm inquiring about their entire filmography, including collaborative and solo projects.

I know that LD thinks quite highly of Bangkok Dangerous, so I'll definitely give that a watch.

They're probably the most over rated directors in Asia. Their films generally range from hopelessly god awful (Eye 10) to the interminably dull (Bangkok Dangerous) to average (Abnormal Beauty) to good, but rather uninspired (Re-Cycle & The Eye).

Edmond's "Beyond our Ken" was quite good IMO.
Didn't like Oxide's "The Detective" or "Re-Cycle".

I also think they're a bit overrated.

Dude, how do you remember such things, lol. But it's true, I really like that film.

I think the two brothers also just finished shooting the remake with Nicolas Cage.

Somehow I really managed to enjoy Re-Cycle. I doubt it would work as well on TV screen, though.

Bangkok Dangerous is trash with a handful of good scenes.

The Eye was good, the sequel was decent. Not seen '10'

Ab-normal Beauty was poor, so was Leave Me Alone.

Not seen any of their Thai films.

hey,

Edmond Pang is not a Pang-brother. Danny and Oxide are the subjects at hand.

Outside of The Eye, which I thought worked despite being yet another at the time, hope has run out for these two...even when trying out more off-beat stuff like Leave Me Alone.

Ah, damn.

Got confused again.
Nope, then. Haven't seen a single good film in their filmography.
