10 Tigers Of Shaolin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure The story, sets, acting, and sound are basic, but the kung fu is entertaining and wire-less. The ending is one long satisfying fight.
Operation Scorpio (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Novel scorpion style and fantastic kicking. However, too much of the film is wasted on boring comedy and amateurish acting. Good 10-minute fight sequence at the end.
Re-watchability: annually.
Collection: Toss out.

Absolutely must see and purchase to watch again a few times. Great fun.
Black Belt (product link) Martial Arts / Drama The overall balance of the film could have been better with a little more of the superb fighting and a little less drama (which was not bad, but over-extended). The final fight, while enjoyable, was mildly artificial because the opponents survived hits which had hereto been lethal. Nevertheless, this is a fine movie.
When The Last Sword Is Drawn [Korean LE 2-Disc Set + Sharpener] (product link) Drama / Swordplay/Sword(s) A good film spoiled by overly-long and excessively melodramatic rememberances. On the other hand, authentic sword choreography, intriguing plot, and the rival swordsmen's depth of characters redeem the film.
The 7 Grandmasters (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure A film I can watch over and over again, for the many varied fighting styles and the detail of their depiction. A minor quibble is the main character's attempts to win over his master, which detracts from an otherwise solid film.
