Viewing Notes
Second movie of the night. From the director of PINK FORCE COMMANDO! This sets up a plot, then mostly ignores it to delve into stories for the main characters who are all prisoners, before tying it all back up into the plot. So weird to see Jackie Chan, Wang Yu and Sammo Hung all portray “bad” guys, even though they all manage to also be heroes in their own way.
I thought maybe I’d seen this before and turns out I did, and it wasn’t even that long ago!
