Viewing Notes
Absolutely the kind of Shaw film I love. Buddy cop with Ti Lung and Lo Lieh who are also sworn enemies working together to solve a mystery with a band of assassins on their tail. Fuck yeah! Why this film hasn’t gotten the updated Blu-ray treatment is beyond me. It’s one of the best.
And it’s needs a physical release bc the subtitles on YT got all janky in the last 10-15 minutes making it a real pain to watch. Made me angry even.
