Reviews

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Phillida Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Delight Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

zzmale Although it was not the first Chinese movie made, it was a first major success and as the result of its success, the Chinese movies made around that time were very similar to it: most of them were martial arts flicks.Another importance of this film in the early era of Chinese movie industry was that it pioneered the large scale adoption of movie theaters for the general public which included the middle and lower classes.
