As noted by other reviews, this film is a throwback to the old school kungfu flicks of the 60's and 70's.
As the film has been well reviewed on the web already, I'll just add a few observations:
As the film has been well reviewed on the web already, I'll just add a few observations:
- Even though it's a nostalgic film, it might be too "hip" and "retro" for those for the original audience of these flicks.
- It's hilariously funny, but a little tighter editing would have made the movie even better. Teddy Robin, for example is very funny, but he gets a bit annoying after a while.
- Bruce Leung Siu-lung still moves amazingly well at 57 yrs old.. better than most action stars in their 20's.
- JJ Jia is a dead ringer for Kwai Lun Mei.
