Member kungfusamurai Posted August 19, 2010 Member Share Posted August 19, 2010 Does owning them count? I mean, I own a lot that I bought, but still haven't actually seen them (i.e. watched). I scanned through them. KFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member The Silver Fox Posted August 21, 2010 Member Share Posted August 21, 2010 A couple of films on that list are not essential viewing IMO. House of Traps is a pretty mediocre film. It has some good moments and the idea was promising, but the end result is kind of blah. Legend of the Bat was another disapointment. It just meandered. Sure it has some great sets, but you kind of expect that from a Chor Yen wuxia film and it wasn't enough to save this turkey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Delirious Posted August 23, 2010 Member Share Posted August 23, 2010 -Lady is the Boss is classic Kara Hui/Lau Kar Leung -Long Road to Gallantry is another mediocre Shaw despite the pretty stars -To Kill a Mastermind: classic -Clan Feuds: a total mess but fun -Legend of the fox: the novel was mediocre, and I'm sure even Jin Yong wants to disown the very novel that film was based on, fantastic fights covering up for a crappy adaptation -Return of Sentimental Swordsman: hate it -Jade Tiger: just another sword play -Life's Gambles: if you mean Life Gamble recently released twice in the State, then skip it I have not seen Legend of the bat, House of Traps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
