This one manages to blend action, drama, and comedy without losing track of the story, which itself is excellent. Both the principal and supporting characters deliver the goods.

The two undercover cops slightly remind me of Spike and Jet from the anime Cowboy Bebop, which isn't a bad thing.
 

Woody Invincible and Crazy Bee are the perfect team of losers turned hero, and their girlfriend Rolls rocks a pair of hot pants triumphantly.

Despite this movie's silliness, Wilson Yip manages to include a few moments of genuine drama, and the viewer feels for these characters, something that cannot be said about recent craptacular Hollywood horror films.
 

Terrific wire-fu, excellent cast, perverted monks, and good storytelling.

No Shadow Kick!
 

I think this was the first Donnie Yen movie I ever watched, and it holds a special spot in my collection because of this.
 

If you like silly zombie slapstick, this is worth a watch. You can't beat a movie that has zombie sword fighting, transvestite gang members, giant snakes, hot schoolgirls with axes, and a good amount of postmodern breaking of the fourth wall.

Not nearly as good as Bio-Zombie, but entertaining nonetheless.
 

The ending fight, which is about twenty minutes of the film, however, is boring and unwatchable.
 

This is one of my favorite Tsui Hark movies - the action is great, the drama moving, and the cinematography sweeping.

I waited many years for a subtitled DVD to be released to replace my well worn VHS copy. Well worth a watch.
 

It's been a while since Donnie Yen and his mixed martial arts have been allowed to carry a movie completely without being overshadowed by effects or younger, more photogenic actors.

I liked 'Flash Point' more than 'SPL', which, while lots of fun, had several incomprehensibly sappy plot points and a bit too much flashy "style over substance" CGI elements. Plus, I like Yen more when he's less Superman (boyscout) and more Batman (vigilante).
