Action Member: Yuen Woo-Ping

The action is still impressive, and deserves 4 stars, but the direction, annoying camera work and lack of real plot drag it down into the 3 star category.

‘Black Mask 2’ could be seen as Hark’s interpretation of what appeals to a global audience or maybe he just watched one too many episodes of ‘Power Rangers’ before production began.

‘Born Invincible’ contains what many consider to be Carter Wong’s strongest performance; playing the crazed Chi Kung master, Wong enjoys every minute of his scenery chewing role.

With choreography by the great Yuen Woo-Ping and Hsu Hsia, ‘Broken Oath’ lets its female star showcase her considerable skill in a multitude of crisply choreographed set-pieces

Shen Chiang’s ‘Call to Arms’ is about as dull and listless as they come, never once engaging its viewer even at the most basic levels of entertainment merit.

The fights are almost seamlessly integrated and amongst some of the best on offer for a few years even if they are not new by Jade screen standards.

A touching film which manages to show everything Jet has to offer from his likeable, shy persona to his impressive physical grace.

It’s very strange how such a well-polished and highly entertaining film has come under such criticism from some Hong Kong film fans.

No one who claims to be a Hong Kong action cinema fan or a true Chan fan should be without a copy of this movie.

This is a Jet Li film we can finally be proud of and a Ronny Yu work that will finally stand the test of time.

In my opinion, this is Jet Li’s best work as he carries the film well, performing brilliantly in the films numerous fight sequences.

The plot and characterisation are very weak but there’s enough about the fights to keep a kung fu fan watching till the end.
