Title: Poor transfer of a run-of-the-mill Hong Kong action flick
Review: The folks at budget label Madacy Entertainment are at it again. This is a really crummy transfer of a very ordinary 1974 Hong Kong action flick which has been retitled to capitalize on the success of Jackie Chan's "Rumble in the Bronx." Jackie's a villain in this one and has a pretty good fight scene towards the end of the film with the hero (a taxi driver!) that gets this two stars rather than one. The DVD includes a lengthy filmography for Chan, as well as a list of the injuries that he has suffered over the years in making his films. But other than that, the transfer is the equivalent of a VHS tape at EP speed and the source print itself is bad. For Chan completists only. All others, save your money. I paid five bucks for this and felt like I was robbed.
Is the review positive or negative?
