07/29/09 East Asia's newly resurgent femme-action genre gains its youngest star -- and most offbeat movie -- in "High-Kick Girl!"  |  Variety

07/28/09 A Chinese distaff action star is born in "Coweb," an otherwise by-the-numbers contempo martial-artser that harks back to the exhilarating quickies of '80s and early '90s Hong Kong cinema with femme leads like Moon Lee and Cynthia Khan. Befitting the times, the new star is from the mainland, 23-year-old Shaolin wushu champ Jiang Luxia, whose pugnacious energy invigorates this so-so helming debut by well-known martial-arts coordinator-cum-thesp Xiong Xinxin.  |  Variety
