    Spiritual Kung Fu

    ★★

    Another Lo Wei/Jackie Chan collaboration that’s saved in the final 20 minutes. Two stars for a great final fight scene and the glorious evil laugh of James Tien.

  • Gamera, the Giant Monster

    Gamera, the Giant Monster

    ★★★

    Kaiju in a half shell! Gamera saves a kid at a lighthouse, takes an around the world trip and then smashes Tokyo to pieces. Ending is great too but I won’t spoil the madness!

    Kill

    ★★½

    There is some fun to be had with Kill. But repetitive fight scenes, obscured action and an overly long runtime means it fails to land a punch.

  • The Incredible Kung Fu Master

    The Incredible Kung Fu Master

    ★★★★

    A super entertaining kung fu comedy. Sammo is a joy to watch as the wandering wine merchant come kung fu master.
