02/23/2018 Finest in détournement! Love this movie! What a riot See more 01/11/2015 not totally agree with 'state capitalism' thesis, but this is just brilliant See more 03/05/2010 This movie is a detournement (parody) of an old martial arts movie. It's more or less an inside joke for left-wing radicals (anarchists and communists). See more 11/19/2008 fabuleux! à voir absolument See more 05/01/2008 Un detournement situationiste d'un film de kung-fu,comment ne pas avoir envie de voir ce film? Ceci dit on se lasse vite de ces incomprehensibles blagues sur le communisme et la philosophie situationistes et on s'ennuie ferme pendant la majeur partie du film. Le film vaut quand meme le coup d'etre vu pour avoir l'incommensurable plaisir de pouvoir se vanter de l'avoir vu. Parce que quand meme "un detournement situationiste d'un film de kung-fu" ca le fait dans les salons. See more 02/12/2008 If only those lazy Situationists made more than a small handful of great films, the world would be a better place. See more Read all reviews
