CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Bezenby Fearless Tiger was a complete surprise to me - a previously unheralded bad movie with scenes so jaw-droppingly bad it had me rewinding several scenes just to immediately enjoy them all over again. There's almost no let up here to the amount of joy Jalal Merhi fires at the audience. A bad guy who looks like someone inflated Robert Plant and then burst him with a fork is taking a new drug called Nirvana to the streets of America (via Hong Kong). Jalal's brother gets hooked and overdoses on the stuff, causing Jalal to go to Hong Kong and get trained up to kick everyone's head in. Sounds simple? It is. But:Jalal's girlfriend in the film is much, much taller than him, and cannot act to boot. Therefore, every time she appeared on the screen I was in fits of laughter. Just watched her roll her eyes in a "Oh, that Jalal" way. She's bad, but nothing can prepare you for the police chief. His initial scene, where he struts about like a chicken and sputters out his lines, is so bad I swear you'll be rewinding it over and over again. Brilliant!Add to this the crazy action scenes (I nearly burst a gut at the gang battle near the start, where a bad guy is too busy gloating at his enemies to notice the car he then plows into with his motorbike), the toilet set round the neck move, or the death of one of the villains, who has both his feet poking out the sunroof of a car at the time. You've also got the fight in the back of a garbage truck, a bad guy with the tightest white guy afro ever, and the training scenes with Bolo, which has Bolo, Jalal, and some chick apparently involved in some sort of crazy dance off (or so it appears to the viewer anyway).Instant classic! See it now!
niwiy This film is so bad, that I'm sure it must have been planned that way all along. The plot is no worse than a typical martial arts action film, but the writing is hack. No performer, writer or director could have read this script without seeing the quality dearth. So like others who have posted, I enjoy this film for what it so clearly is--a tireless parody of trite action movies, a biting satire of the martial arts genre.The fight scenes are reasonably well choreographed, though not flashy. Most of the fighters in the film appear to have martial arts training, and the director does not resort to cheap tricks--like changing speeds or cropping shots--to make things strikes appear impressive.
mucahid This is the worst movie of Jalal Merhi. He can't act he isn't great with martial arts. The story of the movie was too simple. The fights were not good. The only good thing in this movie was the music. I bought this movie becaus bolo yeung was in it. But Bolo didn't do anything. He didn't fight the only thing he did was talking and dancing.1/10
Minority_Report I laughed quite a bit at this film, but once the novelty wore off I was just in shock. Why? Mainly because the script is so bad that it's funny. The lead star Jalal was a boring actor and everyone else was just as bad. If you're thinking of getting this film because Bolo is in it, I wouldn't, cause he's dubbed and he's only in it for about 4 minutes with a crap part. The best thing about this film is that there are some good martial arts, but the plot feels like it was made up as they went along, and the editing is just ridiculous sometimes. However, if you like bad B-movie martial arts films, then this isn't so bad at all.
