STAGGERING FILM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! only 4 stars tut tut

What would you give it then?

For Romero to call JC's films "crappy" is unfair IMO.

Not really it's just his opinion.

LOL you don't need to sit on the PC fense all the time, adding IMO to every post. Grab your balls and give it some shit :mrgreen:

OK, the irony is that I hate PC :mrgreen:

I know its his opinion, but all of JC's films crappy? Some mistake surely?

I'd give it **/****

Great weapons work, the rest is forgettable.

And MOST Jackie films are better than this.

Fairy muff. Do you think its worth a rental?

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 27 Mar 2005, 21:46

HAHAH yes get it man! just buy the bugger! and most Jackie Chan films are pants you have to admit, he does make great films, but he makes more average or crap ones than great ones

and Grim I did not say ALL JC films are crappy at all, re-read it

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 28 Mar 2005, 10:36

OK you said "pisses all over the crappy Jackie Chan films" - so its better than JC's bad films you mean? Fair enough then

Hey If you like Sammo at all I wouldnt hesitate for a second getting it, and its nice to know the HKL version has such a good transfer

my old HK dvd is jumpy

so I have never seen the film in one sitting without messing about with my player

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 28 Mar 2005, 17:19

I quite like some old school films so I may get it

btw... this may just be me, but I'd prefer if you pasted your review into this forum instead of just linking to your own site... of course, including a link to your site would be okay - I'd just like to not leave BnB to read a review...

(Plus if/when your site "dies" the review will live on!

)

LOL, history taught me that it is more likely for Bullets to die than my own site. Don't you remember the tons of reviews we had posted on the old forum? All gone. Besides, I wouldn't like to add the screenshots here due to my limited monthly bandwidth.

Hope you will still visit my site every now and then...
