3.0 out of 5 stars Good elements, but not a classic. 22 April 2011
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Visually pleasing, but I watched this only two weeks ago and am struggling to remember quite what happened.

Legendary mass murderer (Chow Yun Fat) opens up a hotel to provide refuge from anyone seeking to avoid conflict (no questions asked.)

Enter crazy lady, hearts flutter, sparks fly, men appear, battles commence.

There's fire to the performances and as expected from a John Woo production, some high speed comic book action moments.
But it kind of promises a bit more than it delivers.

I wouldn't say it's bad, but it's not one i'd speedily recommend either. Perhaps it would improve on second viewing.

Still, it's refreshing to see this type of asian action film in a western setting.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not an action film 14 Nov 2007
By Severin
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This film is only produced by John Woo, not directed by him. It is not really an action film. The action sequences that there are are few & far between. They are shot really badly, so you can't see anything at all. They are totally absurd and stupid. What does save this film from being totally awful is the very Chinese humour/silliness and love story. More 2.5 stars than 3.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good movie that could be better. 28 April 1999
By Chen Liu Guang - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
Peace Hotel was Chow Yun-Fat's last HK movie. It was fun to watch, but at times the movie seemed to lose its focus on the plot. But with an actor of Chow's caliber, the movie still works. The ending is incredible...Chow shows the viewer what a real man is...watch it and see what I mean.

5.0 out of 5 stars Chow yun Fat's best film since "Full Contact" 23 July 1999
By Brendan Klein - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
After Full contact, chow yun fat made a few mistakes, or so i've heard. God of gamblers return (which I haven't seen), and treasure hunt(critically hated, i personally enjoyed). Apparently, Yun-fat was so eager to have another hit, he wrote the story himself, and a great one it is. A sweeping Hong Kong "Eastern Western", I found the cinematography breathtaking, and the montage where chow yun fat and cecelia yip fall in love particularly touching. My only problem in the film was that it tried to be too much of an epic in an hour and a half, it was probaby rushed. The finale stands up there with A Better tomorrow 1,2, and the killer as one of chow's final moments of blazing glory.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Hong Kong art film with some awesome actions scenes. 1 Aug 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
Chow Yun-Fat's last movie from Hong Kong before coming to the U.S. One of my all time favorites. Not really compairable to over-the-top HK actioners. More of a romantic-action film with a different style of action than directors such as Ringo Lam or John Woo. I recommend it for any lover of good films not just Hong Kong fans.
