There is nothing in the film that hasn’t been seen before and better elsewhere. Current advertisements liken it […]

Jason Cheung is the self-described half-Chinese prodigious eater of the air band Airpocalypse, who gained much fame and notoriety last year on “America’s Got Talent.” When I finally met him in person at this year’s US Air Guitar competition in Chicago, Jason talked up his love for kung fu, Asian cinema, and all things Hong […]
