Cast Member: To Wai-Wo

Mainstream Hong Kong cinema has often embraced the bizarre and the baffling, but ‘Demon Of The Lute’ may be a step too far for many.

Possibly not for the Bruce Lee purists, but a fantastic old-school flick, which is, another must have.

Donnie Yen takes on a role similar to the one he played in ‘Drunken Tai Chi’ and once again shows how effortless it is for him to combine incredible physical aptitude with a pleasing screen persona.

‘Snake And Crane Arts Of Shaolin’ starts with a stunning martial arts display by Jackie Chan and ends with one of the most complicated pieces of choreography ever seen on screen.

With a predictable script and some seriously under-par actors, it was never really going to amount to much more than a set of average fight sequences.
