Audience Member Very well made Chinese of which a young soldier stumbles on a hut in which three men have kidnapped a beautiful woman. Although, strangely, he sides with their decision as it is way to stop government corruption within their part of the nation. That leads to a petition being made to help de-throne the current government, though sending that petition becomes a significant task. May well-choreographed fight scenes and beautiful filming make me question why on earth these films are not better known. I just don't understand. This movie is so quick moving and entertaining that it ranks among the best films of 1966. Well, hopefully, my reviews may spark some interest from main stream critics. At least I won't forget about them. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a re-make of 3 Outlaw Samurai, which is actually a better film but since that film is not offered on this site you could do a lot worse. Starring Wang Yu and directed by Cheh Chang from One-Armed Swordsman, this is a decent wu xia style outing in the vein of Deadly Breaking Sword or The Water Margin.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Nada como una buena peli china de artes marciales para pasar un rato agradable disfrutando de las extravagancias y secuencias de batalla imposibles. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Primitive martial art choreography (ok the movie is almost 45 years old but still very primitive).Very basic story Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member This is definitely one of those tragic tales of knighthood where a large supporting cast is introduced just so that they can be killed off. It worked on me. I really liked the story and characters, and though this is clearly the oldest kung fu movie I own based on the set designs and methods of editing action, it didn't take me out of the world too much.
