Bond girl Michelle Yeoh, good subject. Back in the 90s she was a martial arts star in Hong Kong and I own some of those films, like Heroic Trio and Wing Chun.
I’ve seen 11 of the 23 films on the chart. Favorites are – Tomorrow Never Dies, Crouching Dragon, Hidden Tiger, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2, Fearless, Supercop, Sunshine, Kung Fu Panda 2, The Mummy and the Dragon Emperor’s Tomb and Mechanic Resurrection.
I watched Boss Level recently, it was interesting, not sure it holds up to repeat viewing though. Groundhog Day for action fans.
Good stuff Bruce. Vote Up!

A couple of weeks ago, we received a comment that pretty much blasted us for not being diverse enough. That comment was filled with lots of horrible language and lots of horrible name calling, so I had to delete it. I felt bad for deleting that comment……but there was really no way to save it and keep our G website rating. That being said, we have gone back and looked at our UMR subjects….we feel we have gotten better with certain diverse groups….but are still lacking in other diverse groups. We will continue to improve in having a very diverse group of UMR subjects.
FYI. So….Chris T. Morgan….your comment was read and it caused us to self reflect….I thank you for the feedback, and hope to hear from you again.
Great UMR Page
Thank you Mike.
