Hong Kong Movie - 2010
- Fight scenes were pretty good
- ️I liked Donnie Yen
- Currently watching Winter Begonia, so I am glad to see Huang Xiao Ming
- Liked the ending scene
- Way too overdramatic that ended up being hilarious
- The foreign actors were unbearable to watch
- ️ The whole thing of ''foreigner disrespecting the Chinese martial arts and culture and being an ass'' was too much and over the top and looked cartoonish
- It felt like they were trying to prove a point about the ''barbarian foreigners''
- Awful dubbing
-
