I loved this movie. The plot seems a bit iffy before you watch it, but the fight scenes are so well choreographed. They are amazing to watch. |

Watched it last night and the fight scenes were the best bit! Lucy Liu was amazing, and it took me a while to realise all the little cameos, like Pam Grier and the guy who played Pai Mei in Kill Bill |

About as effective an old-school HK kung-fu love letter as there can be, as this was a blast and ended up being a ton of fun. The plot is essentially what it should be doing, providing an excuse to display as much fighting as possible using all the available members of each side as possible, with all the performers being as skilled and competent as they should be for such a film. That allows for the non-stop fighting and brawls to be as fun as they are, with the brothel fight between the prostitutes and the warlord's clan, a showstopping fight between the two brothers and a special one between the blacksmith and the murderer of his fiancee who both wield exceptional weapons during the showcase. The multitude of gore works well considering the players involved behind-the-scenes, and the themes employed are all familiar and relatable as well, though it does seem a little too drawn-out at the first as it takes a while to get started, the sleaze present really could've been exploited a little more and it tends to focus a little too heavily on the introduction and dispatch of characters ready to fight for no real reason which makes the storyline a general mess at times. Overall, though, there's a lot to like with this one. |

Do illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup? Some people are like slinkies: not good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one falls down the stairs. My review blog: http://donshorrormovieblog.blogspot.com/ | |
