Chunyong-ran

I bought this film for 2 reasons the first being it was 3.99 and secondly just the title Hard Bastard (Which I'm not sure is the actual translation) looking at the DVD cover now still makes me cry with laughter. Then again I suppose you can make that 3 reasons as I knew Hwang Jang Lee (Drunken Master) would have a few tricks up his sleeve and he does. Although the production values on the DVD were appalling and the dubbing gave the impression that this was a carry on film a few beers or whatever your poison may be and you will laugh so much you will nearly crap yourself.

"Where are you going?" "to kick sh#t out of them"

The last fight is quite good I just wish it was in widescreen and not the poor pan and scan one that makes you miss the occasional kick to the face.

Also if anyone's ever seen 'the postman fights back' (Ronny Yu 1985) they will recognise the bad guy with the face like a lattice fry as one of the assassins after chow fat...... 10 points going to the person that can tell me his name.

If you see this film in your local off licence pick it up along with a crate of beer sit back and enjoy.
