Have you watched Everything Everywhere All at Once? Personally, having seen Swiss Army Man and liked it, I walked into the theatre bracing myself for weirdness, and was not disappointed.

She's definitely getting a new level of recognition among general audiences. To sound a little less pretentious, I mean she's always been great, but she wasn't always a household name

I don't know why, but every time I see Michelle Yeoh on screen I am just filled with such pride and admiration for her. She has done amazing things, broken so many barriers, and is a joy to watch on screen. I grew up watching her in the 00s as a kid, so Tomorrow Never Dies, CTHD, Sunshine, and Memoirs rattled around in my head and familiarized her face to me. Then I went back and started watching her old stuff because I always like her performance and presence. I was ecstatic to see her in Crazy Rich Asians. Little kid me watched to fight and move just like her, or to have a presence like her. So I've always been a fan, but Everything, Everywhere, All At Once definitely solidified her as my favorite actress, as well as my favorite movie.

Michelle Yeoh is an incredible performer/actress, i consider her one of the best, since she's so commited to her roles in movies, also the unique set of skills she has, being a ballerina/martial artist she understands about "movement" and "comunication" trought it. She's incredible and extremely versatile.

It's crazier the fact that she is actually not from HK but Malaysia

In recent years, it is a pity that Michelle Yeoh has been offered mostly supporting roles, despite the rich acting experience that she has built up throughout her career. In comparison, her male peers are still offered main roles. When Michelle Yeoh talked about EEAAO, she was emotional that someone finally realized what she can do and gave her an opportunity.

The fact that there is a chance she could be nominated for an Oscar is also amazing, she deserves the world.

Even though I haven’t seen that many of her movies, I have no hesitation saying she’s one of my favorite actresses. She is just AMAZING. (And she’s so beautiful, which isn’t the most important part. But it’s definitely hard to deny her beauty!)

You didn't mention that she was from Malaysia. It is unthinkable that a young girl from Malaysia could conquer Hongkong (and later the world) and even stand side by side with Jackie Chan and still going strong which are very rare for HongKong (and Asian) stars.

Thank you so much. Michelle Yeoh is almost exactly my age. I have been following her since Police Story 3. Even in her action movies you could see her acting abilities. I have always longed for her to appear in a role by a director of “slow cinema” so that the flicker of every expression and gesture would show clear.

after 30 years of watching movies with michelle yeoh......what she does in sunshine is still my favorite performance. something about her in that role is just so haunting to me.

Hollywood was really behind Hong Kong when it came to female action stars. So much so that many Americans today think that the concept of smaller women kicking bigger men's asses in movies is a new thing (heck, even Short Round took out some thugs). While western audiences in the 80s & 90s generally cited characters like Ellen Ripley, Sarah Connor, Buffy Summers, Xena, etc... as women of action; eastern audiences back then tended to cite actresses like Michelle Yeoh, Cynthia Rothrock, Yukari Oshima, Moon Lee, etc... instead.

Yes, Madam is easily one of the best films in its genre. Really creative choreography, and the action is so fast but so coherent. The Marx Bros characters are just a really fun comedic relief, and the lead actresses kick so much ass it's hard to walk away without doing a little hyah!

The three ladies in Heroic Trio have always been iconic (RIP Anita Mui), yet I've always find myself comparing Michelle Yeoh and Maggie Cheung. Their dynamic is always fun to watch (in the MANY movies they are together), but Maggie, somehow, moves me a little more. It's too bad she left as she did, if not I think she would have the same success as Michelle is right now.

I think both of us were slightly more enchanted by Maggie because in Hong Kong, she was given many more dramatic roles than Michelle, + Maggie always was magnificent. Although Michelle was paid more, Yes, Madam also typecasted her. I too, wish Maggie was still acting, but after winning @ Cannes, + 5x winner of Hong Kong Film Awards, Maggie probably felt she wanted more time for herself. As for a successful career in Hollywood, although speaking perfect English, Maggie was most likely disillusioned when her scene was cut from the flick, Inglorious Bastard. Unlike Maggie, except for her Asian Film Award, Michelle has unjustly not won any other major film awards. Although many of us fans know she is a highly skilled actor, Michelle may need the validation of a prestigious award; hence she is still acting.

I did a high school drama project on her and all this information would have made my presentation 100x better.

When you said "politician", I am immediately reminded of her portrayal in The Lady (2011). What a sad moment that you never mentioned that film.

She is such an amazing talent and I'm grateful we get to see her shine so brightly.

The greatest superpower of EEAAO, besides the casting (and not just Yeoh, but everyone on that cast), is the sincerity. For a movie that looks at first like a shitpost, and even does some shitpost-y things, it winds up being one of the most utterly sincere and honest movies in years.

Having seen all of her work I would have to say that her character in star trek discovery is my all time favorite.

Michelle is from Malaysia, the states where she grew up usually use cantonese to communicate, at the same time she also fluent in chinese and english because of enviroment, thus learning proper mandarin wont be big problem because her basic are there.

I was amazed when I saw Yeoh in Supercop(Police Story III). I've been a fan ever since. It still bothers me that there are people that have no idea who she is.

Never mentioned but probably one of the best Yeoh films I have seen was Far North, a pretty grim drama about Yeoh's character being in competition with a younger woman for the affections of a man. Well worth a watch. Yeoh started out as a ballet dancer, no doubt the basis for her smooth, fast moves.

Was lucky to meet Michelle while she was in London in 1997 making the Bond flik, such a lovely lady, glad to see her in such a great movie

this was the best movie i have seen in years. the theater experience had the whole crowd in laughter and tears

Your videos always make me cry..

Wwooooaaahhh, it's kinda wild that she got her start in a commercial with Jackie Chan and ended up taking a role originally made for him years later. Their kinda like parallels

i loved this video- as i was growing up she was an inspiration to me as a young girl learning martial arts in a class of mostly boys- but as you show, shes so much more than that. i love that shes finally getting her due as the spectacular actress that she is

EXCELLENT video! Keep up the great work

What an excellent review. I hadn't made the connection between the Bond Girl, Crouching Tiger heroine, Star Trek Captain and Emperor, and Everything Everywhere... I thought it was because I was too stupid, no, it was because she brings such nuance to each role that she is almost unrecognisable. A true, towering talent that, to all our shame, has been underappreciated for far, far too long. A genuine genius that is an honour to see in action. Thank you Michelle.

I was waiting for this video to come out by accented cinema :D

she is incredible and thank you for making this video

amazing work. somehow i've managed to watch a ton of Michelle's movies but never realized it was the same person

I love Michelle!! She is to me in one of the best actresses of her time deserves on more recognition. I can’t wait to see more roles from her in the future. Can you do a video on Zhang Ziyi’s career?

Every time I watch your videos, I come away with so many more films to add to my watch list!

I’m ao glad Michelle Yeoh is getting the recognition she truly deserves. What a great body of work

There is no one better at acting that is also very good on action than Michelle Yeoh

I have nothing to add other than, when I saw Police Story 3 as an eight year old, I've loved Michelle Yeoh ever since, and I've always been happy to see her on the screen

Thank you so much for this video! I've asked before in other vídeos comments for a Michelle Yeoh video and here it is! Such a beautiful essay on such a magnificent performer! ❤️

Excellent thanks for this. Been again of her films since my childhood
