MAN'S REVIEW: This movie sucks AND here are the reasons why:
-
The words "Bruce
Le" are not a selling point but that didn't stop the designer of the video
box to use his name when "Bruce Le" doesn't even appear in it.
-
The main character's
name is "Daredevil Alan," played by some unknown named Yuan Siu Ho who
doesn't resemble any Bruce Le, Li, Lo, Lie in any fucking way. If anything,
he resembles one of my ugly Filipino uncles.
-
"Daredevil Alan"
is supposed to be around 20-years old yet he looks like he's about 50!
The fact that his teeth are rotting and his hair is partially gray doesn't
help either.
-
"Daredevil Alan"
meets up with his mother (who looks younger than him), his stepfather (who
looks like his young brother) and his girlfriend (who looks like his daughter).
Like I said, the guy doesn't seem 20!
-
There is a fight
scene where "Daredevil Alan" starts to jump rope for no reason at all!
-
At one point "Daredevil
Alan" is flexing in the mirror. Check out the closeup shots - that ain't
him! It's extremely obvious they're using a body double!
The choreography
was about average and that's being nice. The plot, well, fuck the plot.
I'm gonna be honest and admit to not watching the whole movie. When I was
younger I was able to sit through any dreadful, low-budget kung-fu flick
like this. Now that I'm in my twenties and I have better things to
do (like actually watch a Bruce Li film :). If you really want to enjoy
this film, watch it with a bunch of : 1.) friends 2.) weed and 3.) booze.
And in the end, you'll lose all three.
