Viewing Notes

Another Shaw Production.

As much a western as it is a Eastern martial arts movie. Assuming it’s a loose remake of the western of the similar title which I haven’t seen. The horse subplot seems like it was note for note taken from a western. Slow brewing drama that reaches a boil by the end with a balls out showdown. And it’s all worth it for that final sequence.
