YesAsia Editorial Description
There are very few war-themed Hong Kong films, and fewer yet that deliver the action and drama like Eastern Condor. Produced in the early 90s, Eastern Condor stars a grand trio of veteran action stars - Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao, and Yuen Wah.
Set in the Vietnam War period, a group of Chinese convicts are sent into Vietnam by the US government on a deadly mission in exchange for freedom and monetary reward. The group must locate an abandoned ammunitions dump before the violent Vietcong army, led by Yuen Wah, does. Deep in enemy territory, Sammo Hung and company encounter many dangerous, at times fatal, obstacles, but receive some help from a lethal trio of female guerrilla fighters, including Sammo Hung's real-life wife, Joyce Godenzi.
Packed with fierce and fatalistic action, Eastern Condor hits hard and never relents, thrillingly combining gunplay and martial arts in a brutal war zone where everyone fights but no one wins.

Product Information
Director : Sammo Hung
Producer : Leonard Ho
"Eastern Condors" was the top secret mission of Department of Defense in the United States in 1987. The mission was to destroy the munitions left over in Vietnam during the Vietnam War. Since it was the top secret mission, Lieutenant Lam (Lam Ching Ying) could only select Chinese felons from the Federal prison lured by the right of residence and big money to execute the mission. As the irregular troop, they just had informal training before they went to Vietnam. During the mission, they had to pass over mountains and challenge their own wills. They started with no trust to become mutually supportive with one another at the end. However, only few of them were able to come back eventually.

Good old days
| I remember back in 80s / 90s where I always look forward to Hong Kong movies. Especially when they grouped all well known actors / actresses and act in one show. Eastern Condor has Yuen Biao and Sammo Hung. Sadly, when I watch this movie again, I find it so so only. Therefore, I recommend you to rent this. It doesnt impress me like it did years back. |

Not the best, but entertaining
| Sammo is obviously in his best physical appearance, pretty lean & mean in his convict/military character. Unfortunately you don't really get attached to the characters too much other than the fact that all the actors are recognizable action/stunt players of that time. The final showdown within the weapons silo is intense & makes trudging through the typical war movie build-up tolerable. (I would just fast forward to the end anyway) Some excellent stunts & fights bewteen the opera brothers, Sammo, Yuen Biao, Yuen Wah. |

A wonderful enjoyable movie!
| I love this movie...no romance but I love it. It's hard for me to find a copy for sale so I'm getting myself one. I can watch this one over and over...it's simply that good. The first half over is kind of slow, but once pass that point, all the actions pick up. I love Yuen Biao and I know Sammo's going to be do a great job. :D You won't be dissapointed if you are a chinese martial art/action fan. On a side note, I used to have the boot that looks exactly like Yuen Biao's...same color...exactly. |
