Audience Member The Jade Tiger's core theme is that violence just brings about more violence. The protagonist wants to avenge his father's death, but the villainous poison weaponed using Tang Clan are after him. After some kills, some subterfuge, and lots of undercover work, the final scene is somewhat beautiful, in which the main hero decides to quit the martial arts world because everything is meaningless when everyone is dead. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting plot - with a moral for the violence of martial arts. I found the story interesting but not believable. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member This might be the best cast gathered for one Shaw Brothers film that I've ever seen. Ti Lung, Yueh Hua, Derek Yee, Ku Feng, Lo Lieh, Lily Li, and a couple other people who's names I don't know yet. I'm still working on it. I enjoyed the movie but I can tell it's from the same director as The Magic Blade. I didn't enjoy that one as much as the Chang Cheh films of the world either. Something about the tone, I'm not sure. This one had a lot of great fights between some really enjoyable characters, though as one might expect, the women screw up everything! Haha I mean in terms of the story. He was undercover you idiot!! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member The seemingly endless plot-twists might seem ridiculous but this is a peculiarly beautiful, thoughtful film. A charming fairy tale. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
