Viewing Notes

Anchored by solid performances by Ti Lung and Derek Yee as two brothers who are the rightful heirs to the throne. This seesaws between drama, action and slapstick comedy but it somehow all blends together well for an entertaining late entry from the flagging Shaw Brothers studio.

The final martial arts battle is pretty epic and a fun watch.
