Great combo platter

I have a US version DVD of this & was thoroughly impressed with the action sequences along with the semi dark story line. Unfortunately, I don't know if it's just my copy but the very end there is an aweful editing flaw where a sequence in the fight is missing. The gap is annoying even though you don't miss much of the story. This may be one of the best roles Yuen Biao has been in recently. Kaneshiro Takeshi provides a better character compared to his usual "pretty boy" roles. (that's moving up) |

I have never expected Takeshi was in a good old fashioned action movie like this one. With Yuen Biao as costar and action choreographer, you couldn't go wrong with it. Takeshi looked so cool walking around whipping everyone around and all the action sequences !!! And the mean laugh in one scene is so uncharacteristic of him, so refreshing. You got to watch this movie. It's not dark like some of Johnnie To's recent movies where you could hardly tell what's happening. Great camera work. A must see if you are new to Takeshi. |

This movie, I believe is very enjoyable, the first time I got it which was on 10-15-04, I stayed up until 1 in the morning watching this movie! Takeshi is so cute in this movie, he's #4 on my list! I saw Nicky Wu's, (#1 on my list) Xiao-shiyi-lang series b4 this movie, and when the bad guys ambushed Takeshi, it reminded me a lot about when Nicky was ambush also, which is good! When this happens to both guys it both sad and scary! It's so sad how Jessicas waited all night for Takeshie and he never came! It's also so sad how Takeshi's girl would kill him to save Tam See, Takeshi seem to love her soo much!! :( You should buy this movie, it's full of all 3 action, romance and comedy! You're not going to regret buying it!! |

Riveting Heroes befitting the title.

After watching A Man Called Hero and loving the special effects, I picked this up thinking it might be similar. I wasn't prepared for the gun-slinging kungfu-fighting heroes in here without the effects but the fights and magnificent acting from the main stars more than compensated for the surprise. Yuen Biao's amazing stunts made the movie shine but he is almost eclipsed by Takeshi's equally amazing stunts and acting. Valerie Chow's character was a woman with great depth and dimension, one that draws contempt and at the same time understanding and sympathy. Jessica Hsuan made a nice foil for our main hero although her role was pretty colourless compared to the rest. The ending was a really good, a bittersweet mixture of loss and regret for one and happiness and contentment for another. A Brilliant Film. |
