Deserves to be better known
6 February 2023
There are plenty of SEVEN SAMURAI remakes out there, but SEVEN WARRIORS is one of the rarest. That's a bit of a shame as at its best this resembles much higher profile fare like MILLIONAIRE'S EXPRESS. It's another high action ensemble cast Hong Kong action comedy, which begins with a Sammo cameo before slowing down for an hour or so. It then picks up for a wonderfully bloody and exciting heroic climax. The middle section is a bit slow, admittedly, with some unwanted romance and the like dragging things out, but when the cast includes such luminaries as Teresa Mo, Max Mok, Shing Fui-on, Tony Leung, Jacky Cheung and Lo Lieh, it's hard to dislike or criticise it too much.
