Viewing Notes

This was the first movie in Mike’s watch party tonight but it’s on Netflix so I’m just viewing there to get my one movie per month in on the service .... figure this would be fine while i sort more trash. It’s got a lot of performances.

Basically an Indian version of a “I must avenge my master” kung fu flick but set in early 1980s and using disco instead. Sounds good but actually the dancing and performances are not very good. The action is the most fun here as is the melodrama towards the end with all the avenging and revenging.

Also this is such a weird and random title for Netflix with a particularly poor transfer. Would look better on an iPad or phone.
