Bio: I look for fast action martial art movies. A five star movie to me consist of great choreography such as Legendary Weapons of China, The Rebel Intruders, and Long Step Mantis just to name a few. Further more about my movie ratings, I don't really look for story, I just look for the boxing.
I think the (HK Flix) staff is great to give us the delight to share our thoughts and comments about certain movies we select. Now, we are an offical community sharing with each other our love for film.
YOU ARE HERE:INTERACT HOME / I LOVE YOU RATER HATERS'S PROFILE
It was not as bad as zero stars but its not 4 star material either. It has a good cast with Chang Yi as the villain, and Ho Chung Tao ( Bruce Li ) as the Hero. It has entertainment value.
This movie...I really don't have anything else to say... Sorry...
No, ok, I know why, it had all our favorite stars, but the script was bad, the fighting scene were bad, it was slow... I have brought the movie and I'll plan on never watching it again. Video Asia should of known better then to release something like this. This is the worst movie I've ever seen in my life, honestly.
Is this movie a comedy or a kung fu movie? I see many flaws in this film.
"You're a rat and a trap."
"Do you have any proof of his death." Said the antagonist. Ninja assassin reply's "Yea, I brought you his bottle."
A woman's husband dies and she asks the drunken kid "Please make me laugh, again." Drunken kid reply's "One dollar for an hour and 5 dollars for all day."
A girl gets raped by a co star of the film then she calls him nice then he jets.
The girl who was raped finds the rapist and then she feeds him.
At the final battle, the bad guy is trying to kill drunken kid with drum high hats; Then the rapist saves the day.
Oh, lastly, the drunken kid does not get drunk.
If this was a kung fu movie, I have evidence that it is not a good one. If it is a comedy, then it was a brilliant one. So if it is a comedy- four stars, because they did their job. But Video Asia has promoted is a martial artist film and it's horrible. Also, this is a spoof of Jackie Chan's Drunken Master and Sammo Hung's Spooky Encounter.
Invincible One (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure [Other people who] had written [positive reviews] and given this movie four stars is on serious narcotics. This movie sucks, please save your money. One of the worst Shaw Brothers movies I have ever seen.
The fight scenes were to slow, and the story was to boring to even have a good fight scene to go on...All in all the movie sucked hard.

this movie was not for everyone! I thought the story was good and character developement excellent. This was emphasized more than fighting
The Banquet (product link) Drama / Action/Adventure One star for the story and its effort, one star for the costumes and the beautiful colors, and one star for the unbelievable musical soundtrack, but otherwise this movie SUCKS--HARD! Yuen Wo Ping putting his name on this film was like Ted Haggard's sex scandal: it hit me hard--to the point of crying. This kind of stuff belongs in a theater on broadway.
Crazy Shaolin Disciples (product link) Martial Arts / Comedy I'll pay anybody a dollar to tell me what this movie is about! As far as the fight scenes go, everybody was jumping so high and so much in the air, it made me believe that I could fly--really. This movie is more of a comedy than a martial arts movie.

My comment explains the movie better than most of the other comments. I want my dollar :) I think they got a deal on tramps for this one.
10 Brothers Of Shaolin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure There are many mistakes in this film: "You can- a killa two bird with a one stone." "He been hit with Chinese Karate". These are things you don't say in a kung fu movie. I do not recommend this film to no one.
Cat Vs. Rat (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure To me, I feel like this movie is missing the usual Liu Chia-Liang martial arts extravagancy. Or maybe the circumstances that he was going though at the time lead him to make an okay movie--not much of a classic. But I'll tell you this: the fighting is not so bad, but I needed to see more of it.

preach on brother "I love you rate haters". Exaspertaing!
Stroke Of Death (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Don't get me wrong, this was a nice movie to watch. Great action sequences, but what's up with the movies ending? Oh man, it was like Courtney Love's emotional state when she has no more drugs. It was like Peter North's best recording, but he ran out of tape. Oh man what a way to end what I thought was going to be a great movie. Also, the audio sucks on this version. I'm really disappointed. Some people find this movie really awesome, I don't.
Duel Of The Brave Ones [DOUBLE FEATURE] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure The reason I had wanted to buy this movie is because of Wilson Tong's great performances in movies such as the Shaw Brother's films Treasure Hunters, Dirty Ho, and the Master Killer. Unfortunatly, this movie is no Shaw Brother's movie. The movie Duel Of The Brave Ones wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either. This movie was a gangster movie, and people were getting hit saws, chains, and most of all people were killed with screwdrivers, go figure. Conversely, this movie was entertaining in it's own right; very fast choreography, and not bad story line either. Two stars [out of 5] for me.
Let me get this right: Master Kow (Chen Sing) killed his brother and ripped off his face just because he didn't want to marry Ching Lan (Angela Mao). And then, he has someone else to play his brother's character, right?
Next, Master Kow wanted to run the city that Tsang (Ching Lan's father) is boss of, right?
Master Kow uses the Tiger Style kung fu, right?
Okay, correct me if I am wrong, but I am confused: I didn't see Master Kwo use much tiger style. It seemed more like strangle style to me. Also, what's up with Kow trying to run a city that nobody was in? So pretty much he was bullying people for nothing?
Please feel me on this!
Maybe it's just me, but I feel these kinds of stories belong only on the Lifetime Network series "Snapped", and not a kung fu movie!
Lastly, as far as the fight scenes, they were good but weren't satisfactory to me, especially the fight scene at the end--too abrupt and not length worthy. So, two stars from me. Sorry kung fu lovers, not a fan of this one.
Millionaires' Express (product link) Action/Adventure / Martial Arts What a big disappointment--I mean, literally everybody and their momma was in this movie. And this movie was like this!!!! WOW, you got to see it to believe it. Because this film, especially at this budget, should have been the best movie in history for all martial arts movie lovers. This movie, as slow as it was, could not make up for the lost time of the final scene. I am very, very unhappy right now.

You are right on the spot MAN!!!! What a disappointment.
You gave Forbidden Kingdom 3 stars and this you only gave 2 and half. Are you serious? this movie is great, did you see the fight scenes. I don't think you saw the movie.
Whenever Millionaires' Express is brought up in a discussion among fu fans there is always 2 sides- people tht love it or hate it. I found the film fun & enjoyed the fights. The fights at the end are terrific. & the stars being silly is always nice.
I have to disagree. The last twenty or thirty minutes is one long, beautifully chaotic, explosive fight-fest. I found the filler between fights to be more compelling than most kung fu movies. I'll admit, some of the comedy antics are over-done.
Nope. You seem to be disregarding how well done and plentiful the action is toward the end. I also thought that there was enough humor and plot development throughout the film the keep things interesting.
I agree that the film was a let down, but I do think it had a lot of really cool fights and stunts in it. It was a bit bloated and meandering, but if you can look past that, I think you'll find the action to be quite enjoyable and noteworthy.
The Brave Archer And His Mate (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I am confused, but there are some nice fight scenes to watch, especially the ones with the frog style. Anyway, I believe that they should of left it at part three and called it a masterpiece trilogy. But NO, they have to mess it all up with this! The story is all over the place and I am not kidding. Buy at your own risk.
Too generous of a review. As with the rest of the movies, this is too confusing and we get the grating, annoying Fu Sheng instead of the Fu Sheng of "Heaven and Hell" and "Chinatown Kid."
Shaolin Deadly Kicks (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure There is no doubt in my mind that Dorian Tan is a thrill to watch in this film, but there is some things wrong with this movie. First, why is the famous kicker a criminal and then all of a sudden becomes a cop? Secondly, why is he killing people in this film for treasure pieces that he didn't get? Lastly, there is no story about where all the kung fu genius kicks are coming from. Overall, this movie has no substance, and he is just kicking butt, literally.
The Magic Blade (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Yes, there is a lot of action throughout, but nothing that made me wanna' jump out of my seat and jump for joy. Nonetheless, this is a fun movie to watch, with a great storyline.
Shaolin Mantis (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I'm so sorry, but I just was not convinced by David Chiang's character in this movie. At times, I felt that his ability to perform Liu's and Tong's moves was just not convincing, but overall it was a pleasant movie to watch. Finally, though, this movie would have sucked without the complements of Lau Kar Wing. BRAVO, MAN!
Challenge Of Death [DOUBLE FEATURE] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Sorry to tell you this people, but this one is way superior to "The Hot, The Cool And The Vicious". It would be wise of you to have this movie in your collection.
Wu Tang Magic Kick [Crash Cinema 2-Disc Set] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure This movie was all right, but I must tell you about the cinematography of this film. It is amazing and it brings more of a pleasure to watch this film. I highly recommend this film if you are taking a media aesthetic course. There is a lot to learn.
The Forbidden Kingdom (product link) Action/Adventure / Martial Arts I believe this movie is basically for young kids, inviting the young generation to respect the elders. Quite frankly, this is not my kind of movie, but the scene with Jackie and Jet going at is worth watching this film for.

This was an all right movie- But saying the fight scene is worth watching it does not mean to give it 3 stars- thats crazy talk.
Did we watch the same Forbidden Kingdom. because when I saw it....it was a big let down for every fu fan. This is not a 3 star movie at all maybe like 2 or 1 but nomore than 2 and half. Watch the real version of the movie.
The City Of Violence (product link) Action/Adventure / Crime This movie was just too violent. I know the director tried to give his interpretation of what it looks like from the inside of violence, but I wanted to see action with style like every other good martial arts film. In my opinion, this movie was meant to satify the thirst of European moviegoers and not so much that of the American ones. So if you are American and you like European style filmmaking, well then this is the movie for you.

Ryu Seung-wan does an excellent job of differentiating South Korean action from Hong Kong martial arts. While I enjoy the choreography of the sort of HK films you prefer, the realistic action here impresses me very highly. It 's not what you want but...
this film wasnt all the european style and more crime and old school hong kong styled,which explains why the action is more raw and brutal and i believe that this film is actually not that violent
I did not understand your review, but I thought this was worth more than 3 stars. The story was good & the action scenes were nicely done for the low budget it had.
I didn't think this movie was suppose to satisfy European moviegoers or fans of Euro films. The director Seung-wan Ryoo is highly influenced by American films. The film shows a lot of American film references. I didn't find this film too violent ither
My Lucky Stars (product link) Action/Adventure / Comedy This movie is so slow, but there is a nice ending to wait for. Not so bad!

The film went over-budget and it resulted in a very zany story & some bad action sequences. The film is not good just because the last 10 minutes is exciting. For a reviewer 2 rate a movie like this w/ 3 stars is inaccurate & a disgrace 2 real true fans
I agree with you on this. My Lucky Stars is a mixed bag of peanuts. It has a lot of zany & odd moments but the fights at the end saved it from being trash. I agree it's not so bad at all.
Fists Of Shaolin [DOUBLE FEATURE] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I am pleasently surprised. This is for kung fu fans only. If you find a copy of this movie, get it!

Dude it wasn't that good. You need to calm down with your star rating.
Hand Of Death [1973] [5-Movie Set] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Not so bad. The fight scene were okay--halfway decent--but most of all, the flying and jumping made it less believable. Other than that, it was a pretty good movie.

60 minutes of kung fu and 30 minutes of useless plot. Stupido!
The Bare Footed Kid (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Grab the Prozac quick! I'm still amazed that there is a movie out in this world offering so much depression. But besides that the martial arts in here is crazy cool; go Liu Chia-Liang, you are my favorite martial artist. What would become of this film if you did not exist? Overall, I liked this movie but I'm too happy to watch this movie again.
The Kung Fu Instructor (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Ti Lung is not my favorite martial artist, but this movie is ok, but it's not worth four and one-half stars. The fight scenes were slow, it seems as if Ti Lung deliberately tried to make an okay film. The story is great, though, you can get three stars from me.

Fight are to slow???? You must be one of those cats that like hyper sped up kung fu movies with serious undercranking. Come on bro be serious.
Drunken Master 3 (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Most kung fu watching fans would not enjoy this film. Well, this film didn't have many fight scenes in it; conversely, I totally enjoyed this movie. Why, because it told a beautiful story of (What I assume is) the boxer rebellion, and it started off exactly where Jackie Chan left off. The only thing that was different was the funny mother in part two had died which was Wong Fei- Hung's mom. Another reason why the normal kung fu fanatic wouldn't like this film is because there were unknown actors to the american eye deplaying who Fei-Hung was. There were many things I liked about this film; one was how Liu-Chia Liang interpret how a gay martial artist would fight, also the humorous comedy, and a well written story I must say. All in all, this movie was a good story and not many fight scenes, but the fight scenes were good.
1) I found it offensive when it came to some of the characters' ethnic heritage. I felt that they should've found some of those martial artists to play their own parts.
2) I found some of the scenes unconvincing, such as: the blow-up monk, Kam Kong's character turning his neck around looking for Jimmy Wang Yu's character, and Jimmy's character walking on walls on behalf of superior breathing techniche.
Nonetheless, the final battle was brillant, and overall it was quite entertaining. So, three and a half out of 5 for me.

The Invincible Kung Fu Trio [DOUBLE FEATURE] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Not a bad movie. It's a Shaolin vs. Wu Tang story. Honestly, I've seen better, but this is a good movie to waste a little time on. A must-see for kung fu lovers.

Three stars for me, however you're right, this is worth a look.
The Mystery Of Chess Boxing (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Hooray for the kung fu sociopath, Ghostface! This movie is filled with bad wigs and good fights--a must-buy for kung fu lovers.
The Secret Rivals 2 (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I really enjoyed this film better than I did the first one. "Secret Rivals 2" was better choreographically than the first film. I recommend part 2 as the better choice to buy because it was more entertaining.
Dude, both make a good collection. 4 & half is the same as 5 man, don't hate on my reviews because you don't know how to review or rate. If you can see not a lot of people think u review good. again both make a good movie.
Kung Fu Genius (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure SURPRISE!!! This is a good dam movie. Cliff Lok in this movie, is in my book, the most underrated martial arts actor of all time. Also, Wilson Tong absolutely outdoes himself with his martial arts direction in this film. This is a true classic--BUY QUICK!

Again with rating funny, Man ya need to calm down. Watch the films you review, then write about them.
Gang Master (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Phenomenal!!! This movie is a hidden, underrated classic that I insist people to have in their collection; it's unlike any other martial arts movie with the same old snake, crane, Wing Chun, and tiger style. This movie brought different martial arts techniques; in addition, this movie offers an amazing story.

Bro this movie is hoooot !! The action is intense and the fight scenes are sick. The plot added to the enjoyment of the movie, One of my new favorites and I have 150 of the best, rare, and hard to find old school flicks.You definately slept on this gem.
The Lady Assassin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure This is (in my opinion) one of the best directed martial art films of the Shaw repertoire that I have seen thus far, but as rating this movie for the martial arts, it is simply "not bad, not bad at all". The martial arts fight scenes were great--personally, I have seen better, but mind you, this is a keeper.
The Blazing Temple (product link) Martial Arts / Historical One of the best Joseph Kuo’s best, I must say. Also, this is a very peculiar Shaolin massacre movie and more of an elaborate written script more then I can say for Shaw Brothers’ “Shaolin Abbot”. Even though this was an okay martial arts film- the story alone breaks ground because this movie made me feel the emotional ride like no other kung fu movie. I am glad that I have this movie in my collection now. If you buy it, you should be too.
Tiger Over Wall [3-Disc Set] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure [NOTE: This review refers to the Goose Boxer / Tiger Over Wall double feature DVD by Ground Zero U.S.] This movie is surprisingly good. I really did not expect this movie to be this good for the budget that was given to the producers to make this film. And the funny thing about my review of this film is that I originally bought this movie for Goose Boxer, and not this movie. By the way, Goose Boxer sucks hard. (A movie which is also featured on the DVD.) The only thing that was wrong with this film was that Hwang Jang Lee was actually the main character even though he was the bad guy. This movie is worth a watch despite other critic views. I’m really happy that I have this movie in my collection because the fight scenes in this movie are crazy fast; not only that but this movie has meaning.
The World Of Drunken Master (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure From one of the chorographers that brought you "Legend Of A Fighter", "World Of Drunken Master" is at the top of the list when it comes to Yuen Cheung Yan's style of movement. This movie is a must-see for fight scene freaks such as I am. If you are a story freak and really anal about it, this movie is not for you. I was not bored at all with this movie. DON'T SLEEP ON THIS FLICK!!!!
