Viewing Notes

Pretty crappy transfer but at least it was in widescreen (albeit not scaled to modern TVs). The opening scenes, set at night, are so dark that you can’t even see what’s going on. It’s also dubbed instead of subtitled. This was part of a four movie set on one disc. I should have known better.

I wouldn’t mind seeing a good transfer of this at some point because the martial arts scenes are actually pretty well done.

Also known as The Ming Patriots or Revenge of the Patriots.
