Viewing Notes

Last year at BTSNAT we got enamored with watching the Lucky Seven trailer and ended up watching the entire movie. Thing is, we only had a copy that was in German. Still, it was hilarious and had tons of great action scenes and due to the nature of it being a wacky comedy we were able to follow or make up our own plot lines.

This year we decided to watch the sequel, which is now known as Magnificent Seven Kung-Fu Kids. Unfortunately the movie isn’t nearly as good. We did watch it in German so a lot of the plot was lost on us, but a majority of the movie seemed to take place with the seven kids at some silly military training camp where the kids would mercilessly beat the fat kid up from time to time.

A sad disappointment compared to the original but the final kung-fu scenes were a lot of fun.
