Drunken Monkey Customer Review Rated Bad 5 - 5 out of 10
It's 2003 and it's great to see Liu Chia Liang and Gordon Liu back together for another real kungfu movie. However, it's quite a kill-joy for me as Gordon only showed up in the opening scene for less than 5 minutes and didn't reappear again till almost 3/4 ways down the track. To upset me further, his character was killed!!! Not fair!!! Well, you guessed it, I'm Gordon's big fan!

Having said that, the plot itself is actually quite good (although a few silly scenes were childish). Perhaps they should have expanded on Gordon's role as marshall in a few more scenes (am I biased??) to further stretch the good bits. We do have to give the new generation of actors with martial arts knowledge a try so as to carry on the 'tradition'. Too much wiring and cgi are just not real (look at Crouching Tiger ......). I'm sure Liu Chia Liang did his best to make them look good but we could always tell the standard is definitely different. The short fighting scene with Gordon and Liu Chia Liang almost overpower the youngsters'. I agree with Phoenix's review and am glad that I, too, only bought the vcd version ( only to see a very matured and dashing Gordon).

Lacking...something Customer Review Rated Bad 4 - 4 out of 10
Definately could have been better & am glad I didn't pay the little extra for the DVD version. It is always an honor to see Gordon & Lau Kar Leung. They maintain a high calibur in their performances regardless of age. It may be the comparison with the younger actors who simply don't measure up to some of those old school standards that makes this film drop several levels from where it could have been. The attempts to raise the younger actors' performance level with camera tricks is too evident when you see good form/style with the seasoned actors or kung-fu players. I remain more disappointed in this modernized presentation but will not disregard some impressive scenes(all with the old school players of course)that make me keep this in my collection.

Loved it Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
Nice to see Lau Kar Leung back in the saddle litterally, gained a few pounds but looks great for
a man of sixty five. Still very much in shape and has not lost any of his Kung Fu. The movie has a chidlish side but otherwise the intensity of the actors is pretty extreme. Too bad they could not put a part for
Lau Kar Wing that would have been nice. Again the Kung Fu is amazing, Lau Kar Leung again as out did himself.
What a great opportunity for us that he came back one more time.

Disappointment Customer Review Rated Bad 3 - 3 out of 10
If the writer and the director have a better idea what a good movie should be, this film could be salvaged. Sure, Lau Kar Leung is good at what he does in the action department but this movie is too silly at time and not enough good old fashion kung fu. Unless you are a hardcore fan of Lau Kar Leung, watch his earlier productions instead.
