Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
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.
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
ckormos1 1975 Taiwan with Jimmy Wang Yu, Hsu Feng, Chia Ling, Chang Yi and Chen Hung-Lieh It starts with guns and that is never a good thing in a martial arts movie. Jimmy has the answer to the problem – shoot back. The heroic bloodshed or bullet ballet movie has not been invented yet, though. The drama is heavy as Chang Yi is introduced as an old man. It seems he liked the makeup and played many subsequent roles as the white eyebrows villain. Chia Ling and Hus Feng are the good and bad kung fu chicks. Chen Hung-Lieh is the murder for hire man and his hair was perfect. He goes full lecher over Hsu Feng and despite her history as a hooker she makes him work for it. Jimmy is determined to find the root person and gets a surprise. This is not a typical Jimmy Wang Yu movie but I liked it despite the few fights. The fights were certainly creative and interesting. The copy I had was English dubbed and the dubbing started to get out of synch by 50 minutes and became worse.
