Member ching li Posted October 5, 2009 Member Share Posted October 5, 2009 I am in the mood for some old school 70's bashers and I happened to run across this movie while surfing the net, has anyone seen Dumb Boxer before? It stars Hong hoi and I have seen a few of his movies, pretty good fighter. Is it worth viewing for those who has seen it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Kwok Choi Posted October 5, 2009 Member Share Posted October 5, 2009 Yeah saw it when it was released.It then disappeared for good.Didn't even know someone had put it on any video format.What should I say........well going back to 73 it was ok-ish but nothing special.At the time it wasn't frowned upon but it wasn't anyone's favourite.The hero was liked and it had a good story but thats about it.When it's run ended,it wasn't missed and I hardly remember anyone wishing for a re-release.

Member ching li Posted October 5, 2009 Author Member Share Posted October 5, 2009 I have a fondness for bashers, I looks pretty interesting. It is definitely a rare one and I found it on ebay. I will check it out. Thanks Kwok Choi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well by today's standards one could say it is mediocre action wise and not up to the standard of hardcore bashers but it had some heart thats why it had a bit of appeal.For instance though " Hong Kong Connection " had a hell of a lot more action and was a better film in all regards.The audience hated it because of the structure while the opposite is true of Dumb Boxer.
