Viewing Notes

Fantasy martial arts movies are hit or miss with me. This one is a remake of DEATH DUEL, a 1977 film that starred the director. I don’t recall if I’ve seen the original or not. I liked this one well enough. It gets a bit overwrought at times as Wuxia films tend to do, but the action choreography, especially during the final scenes is fun to watch.
