      Audience Member Classic Cold War Kung-fu flick. Humor, bad effects and lots of awesome action sequences. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Its ok but a mess. Action sequences were impressive and excellently paced but the dialogue was confusing and skatty. Not as dark as the anime and aimed primarily at Asian audiences. Watchable but not a classic in my eyes. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a favourite of mine. The trailer deosnt do it any justice really. Its a great film. Ive watched it many times. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Clarence Fok directs...not the best of starts. Sam Hui plays Freeman? What the hell were they thinking?! They get the whole 'Crying Freeman' character all wrong. He's a likable enough guy, but the character of Freeman is not supposed to be an "aw shucks" kinda guy. Add to that Hui's usual comic tendencies and he's a total non-fit. Maggie Cheung is as great as always though. Making the most of what she can work with. Carrie Ng and Nini Li Chi are both prefectly at home with her roles as well, thank heavens! Or this could of been a disaster of a movie. Ultimately, Dragon from Russia's problem lies with its uneven mix of comedy and action. It never really settles into either tone well, and as a result never becomes more than mildly interesting. >_< Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member My Cover is a Bit Different, Picked it up in Pawn Shop for $2.00. Your a better man then I am if you can keep up with this one, scene's change fast and Subtitles even change faster. Lots of Swordplay and Kung Fu. It will stay in my collection Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Watched it sooo... long ago, only have faded memory of it...
