Viewing Notes

VENOM MOB.

Great to see Ti Lung mix it up in a Venom film. Also the rare Venom flick where all six Venoms are featured: Sun Chien, Lu Feng, Phillip Kwok, Chiang Sheng, Lo Meng, and Wai Pak, who I barely consider a Venom despite being on the actual Venoms. Chin Siu-Ho is also present who is more of a Venom that Wai Pak. Also Alexander Fu Sheng. Seriously stacked cast and a pretty good movie with fun characters.

Weird structure that works like almost two movies stitched together. The Venoms are mostly used in the first half with Chin Siu-Ho leading the second half. Kinda threw me off on this viewing. Definitely will revisit this one again soon.
