Daniel C. M Great choreography; action; funny and likeable characters; and a direction that makes the best out of it's low budget and lack of proper scenery. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/25 Full Review John A The combat/action scenes (which make up at least 50% of this film) vary from convincing to semi-cartoonish and too fantastical given what gets established in the first act. A lesser still fun wuxia. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/31/23 Full Review Dick C All my credits go to King HU, who starts a total different style of "Traditional Action" film in that time... Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/09/23 Full Review Audience Member This is fine, but it lacks the tension and cinematic techniques that King Hu used to elevate wuxia into high art in films like A Touch of Zen. There was possibly too much fighting in this one. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member 7.6/10, my review: https://lasttimeisawdotcom.wordpress.com/2017/04/26/last-film-i-watched-dragon-inn-1967/ Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member My modern-day sensibilities cannot get over the cheesy OTT acting, and I've probably been spoilt by amazing fight choreography such that those here feel a little dull. BUT... I must admit that the camerawork is nimble and often surprising, and the sharp editing makes the in-camera effects and stunts work exceedingly well. It's also fascinating how this seems to be influenced by Westerns of the 1950s, while in its turn inspiring some of Quentin Tarantino's best (including Westerns).
