Viewing Notes

Another title I borrowed from Ron a few months ago. Had I known Sharla Cheung was in this I definitely would’ve bumped up my viewing! This is such a wild batshit film. I’d love to know how this story came to be. Funny to see yet again the Blue Jean Monster himself Shing Fui-On for like 5 seconds! Haha! ofc Rothrock is great but I’m blown away by Wong Mei-Mei (Andy’s sister). She has a sweet fight scene in her home where she destroys dudes.

Funny to see another Ferrari following the one in the previous movie I just watched, PARTY LINE. The yellow Ferrari that Andy drives is a 308 GTB. The red one in Party Line is a very similar 328 GTS.

The PQ on this import Blu looks decent so I wonder if Eureka is doing a new scan for their release. Absolutely needs new subtitles! Definitely one to own.
