    Johnnie To has been Hong Kong’s modern crime movie master for decades now, responsible for such contemporary classics as The Mission (1999), PTU (2003), Election (2005), Vengeance (2009), and Drug War (2012).

Demi Moore gives a career-redefining performance as Elisabeth Sparkle, a one-time superstar now headlining a TV exercise program that the shallow network boss Harvey (a gleefully vulgar Dennis Quaid) wants to recast with fresh blood.

    Maverick American filmmaker Robert Altman had been essentially exiled from Hollywood for a decade, making small indie productions and films for TV and cable, when he came roaring back with The Player (1992).
