Member GwaiLoMoFo Posted March 2, 2008 Member Share Posted March 2, 2008 Picked up the new 2 disc set from Dragon Dynasty this week. I hadnt seen either of them but I figured both films for under $20 was a good deal. Ive only watched the first one so far, and I enjoyed it very much. The comedy was enjoyable and not too overdone. The last Chow film I tried to watch was "Fist Of Fury". Which I turned off about 30min into because it was unbearably stupid. The action was great, but coulda used more of it. I love the style of wire-fu used here and in films like "The Swordsman 2", "Dragon Inn" $ "Fire Dragon". Ripping trees out the ground, exploding torsos, ect.. Enjoyable stuff, 7/10.

Member Morgoth Bauglir Posted March 3, 2008 Member Share Posted March 3, 2008 I liked part 1 as much as you did Gwailomofo, but part 2 didn't do it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Righteous Master Posted March 3, 2008 Member Share Posted March 3, 2008 Can't decide if I should buy this 2 disc set or not. I really enjoyed KFH, but not sure about this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Morgoth Bauglir Posted March 3, 2008 Member Share Posted March 3, 2008 If you are a Chow fan I would recommend Fight Back to School 1 and 2 over this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you enjoy Chow's style of humor, and like new wave style Wuxia its worth checking out. At least you get 2 films for under $20 (w/extras and looking and sounding great). At least worth a rent.

Moderator thekfc Posted March 4, 2008 Moderator Share Posted March 4, 2008 i enjoyed them both...I did enjoy 2 more than 1 maybe because Brigitte Lin had more of a presence in 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, just watched 2 last night and liked it more than part 1. Part two moved along faster, had more action, and I found the comedy was toned down a bit (good thing imo).
