Viewing Notes

I have a feeling I’ve seen Yuen Woo-ping’s Dreadnaught (1981) a long time ago. Everything about it is so familiar. Really a wonderful film with outstanding choreography. Glad that the GGTMC covered this as I think it’s an ideal movie night flick. The lion dance battles are soooooo good. White Tiger fight scenes are wonderfully brutal.
