Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

If you think you know your kung fu movies, if you think you have seen all the Shaw Brothers, if you don't hold up your nose to Taiwan, if you know the blind swordsman from the lone wolf, and if you even know who Weng Weng is - then answer me this: Name the first kung fu comedy movie? If you answered "Mad Mad Swords" or "Mad Mad Mad Swords" come and collect your prize. I highly recommend this for fans of the genre - with a caveat. It will test your skills of pop culture history, martial arts clichés, and recognition of actors. Yes, that's Sammo Hung, at 19 years of age, on a horse, in blue, in brown, and getting stabbed. As a comedy it has all the over-acting and camera mugging of Jackie Chan at his best. The fights are even choreographed for comedy. Don't concern yourself about plot or sense, just take it scene by scene and get a few laughs. My favorite with a slight spoiler warning about one gag is the "inner power scene." You know the cliché - at the teahouse the hero/villain display their inner power by doing impossible telekinesis or mind over matter displays, or you could just toss a bowl of noodles in the guys face!
