No pun intended - Shaw Brothers are best known for their martial arts movies - but they did try to reach out and make movies with different themes ... with directors that were trying to do different genres ... and we have one here. Now the movie did not age greatly in quite a few aspects.

One of them being women and how they are treated ... or random quite offensive male character - with sexual preferences that are not consensual ... just saying. On the other hand there are quite a few interesting cases of special effects ... you still get to see "dummys". Better that way than having a stunt person being hurt .... especially considering the impact of the stunt(s) ... again no pun intended. Not a lot of nudity (some disgusting scenes though, so be mindful of that) ... but quite a bit of action ... and a lot of red herrings (plot stuff that messes with the viewer) and may make him see things ... that he/she did not want to see anything.
