Viewing Notes

I hope I live to see the day when Shout Factory releases good quality versions of all these HK films they acquired. Watching this old Media Asia dvd was certainly nostalgic but damn does it look and sound like shit.

A good chunk of this sequel is a 6 or 6.5 out of ten. Chow Yun-fat shows up and takes this to new heights. [insert CYF “thumbs up” gif] He’s so great and so much fun to watch. Neat to see Blue Jean Monster (Shing Fui-On) again with more do as the enforcer.
