Yes, the acting is wooden. Yes, the fight scenes will never compete with anything from Bruce Lee. The plot is all over the map. The dialog isn't great, but that's a combination of the fact that it probably wasn't great to begin with and the the fact that Vinegar Syndrome basically had to make it up based on what the actors might have said. But, it's fantastic. If you know what 80s DTV movies like this are like, you will not be disappointed. John Liu does some real stunts, too, like dangling from a helicopter (no CGI here).
I reluctantly give this only 6 stars because while what VS did is worthy of 10 stars, the movie itself is really only 2 or 3 stars.
