Viewing Notes
Love that this is in the Criterion collection, a GH release but equal to the top third of Shaw Brothers action output. Plus features Wai Pak in a leading role, which I appreciated. Wonder if that’s why he left Shaw?
What’s really great here is that there are two finales and both are outstanding buddy team up setpieces.
