They all are. They should just review the tech specs and leave the film reviews to people who know what they are talking about.

Frank Djeng giving Manfred Wong a copy of Eureka's Duel to the Death. Manfred was one of the scriptwriters of the movie.

Frank Djeng looks pretty big

That is nuts..well, to each his own obviously.  I did not read his reasons but checked out he gave 4/5 for far weaker Yes, madam

If you look at the film through the prism of an expert movie critic from Empire, then fine.

If you know a bloody thing about martial arts, martial arts movies, action, or the like, then it's 5/5. In the Line of Duty IV is a brilliant martial arts actioner and that was the intention when the damn thing was made.

Whoever reviewed the movie isn't worth listening to.

I don't know, but they were posts on their account with screenshots, and the images and descriptions match those three films (which they teased earlier this year when they put images of a bunch of year long releases).

Can't wait for May and June. And what the rest of the year holds (Beach of the War Gods)!

Mmmm. That Samurai Reincarnation name sounds familiar. I'm sure I have it but searching for it online gave no results for a DVD that I recognise.

It's in the Shout Sonny Chiba Collection if you bought that.

No. But I did find it. A Taiwanese DVD, along with some others that I wish to have updated.

@Yggdrasil just to be clear, there are two films with the same title. The SAMURAI REINCARNATION you have in your picture is a 2003 film directed by Hideyuki Hirayama and starring Yosuke Kubozuka. The SAMURAI REINCARNATION on the Shout Factory set, and that Eureka is going to be releasing soon is from 1981, directed by Kinji Fukasaku, and stars Sonny Chiba.

Wow, looking good, cover art has improved. 

Is Revenge a chambara? If so, I'm probably getting all three.

[Red Lion]

Samurai reincarnation is such a classic. Initially i felt it was a bit leasurely paced when i fisrt watched it but holy shit what a final scene. Is possibly my favourite duel in any movie.

SAMURAI REINCARNATION

Does anyone know if there was ever an English dub created for this flick?

Never mind 🤣

[Yihetuan]

I went ahead and pre-ordered all 3 since Eureka is offering a few quid of each until the end of April.

[ironfistedmonk]

Samurai Reincarnation looks interesting, anyone seen Revenge?  I love Harakiri so if its as good as that I'll have to pick it up

For the record: the two new announced movies other than lady reporter are not martial arts movies ala hongkongstyle right??? So I can pass on them??

 

And how is lady reporter? Worth buying? Similar levels like yes madam etc??

Lady Reporter, which will always be Above the Law 2 for me, is definitely worth buying.

The fight scenes are off the hook (from memory, the climax takes place on the Dragons Forever set).
