Great review Petie. I am glad you where able to get it working. I laughed through the whole thing, especialy when the guy on the bus kept shooting himself over and over..:xd: The movie looks like it's one of Jet's weaker films, but it still looks like it would be worth a viewing. I will probably check it out.

[Petie]

I really appreciate your positive comments. You are right that it is one of Jet Li's weaker films but Yuen Wah's choreography is pretty solid which makes it worth watching regardless. So I would indeed encourage you to watch it. Again, I really appreciate you taking the time to watch the video.

the master is always a fun time. therefore i`d never mention its name in the same sentence with s/t like "weak", even tho there`s some truth to that. good enough to be a must have for any jet li fan, good enough for yet another rewatch (in due time).

All I have to say is.......wow, dude! I can't imagine the amount of time it took you to put that together. Keep it up.

(I'm surprised you failed to mention the point where JL and JT fall through the metal housing into the building for about 10 feet and land on the giant mattress only to cut to the next scene where it looks as though JT fell about 30 feet onto the concrete floor.:tongue:)

[Petie]

Yeah, they are a bit of work to do. That one took about three weeks. I'm trying to streamline the process to where I can do one about every two weeks. Yeah, I missed the 30 foot drop! There's no telling how many more goofy moments I missed but like jmungus says the movie still is a lot of fun to watch. Thanks for taking the time to watch.

@Petie, I hope you make 20 more of these video reviews, they're pretty funny.... Are you sticking to just Asian Cinema or different genres???

[Petie]

OpiumKungFuCracker,

Many thanks for watching it! Well, broadly, I'm reviewing mostly bad action films; specifically, martial arts action films. For example, the one I'm currently working on is a very early Van Damme flick. The idea behind the reviews is that the 37th Chamber ( a slight nod to The 36th Chamber of Shaolin; one of my favorite Kung Fu films. I'm a huge Lau Kar-Leung fan) is sort of the last training area where one must endure bad MA films. Sometimes I'll review something that's good but the reality is that it's simply easier to extract (and create) humor from a bad or subpar film. Again, I appreciate you taking the time to watch the reviews.
