Customer Rating: Summary: To Kill With INtrigue (1977) Comment: Chu Feng is on a mission to kill Jackie's family. She butchers everyone exept for Jackie, she falls in love with him and later saves his life by putting Jackie through a torturous trainning regimen so that Jackie can defend himself against some two-faced "friends". This film is chillingly violent!!! Customer Rating: Summary: Great film; awful, awful disc. Comment: To Kill With Intrigue is a great little kung-fu movie; if you like the genre, you'll dig it. Mind you, this disc is so mind-numbingly awful that it's hard to watch. The video transfer is grainy and spotted, the audio fades in and out and pops, and just to add insult to injury, while the film has both english and cantonese audio, there are no subtitles; nor is there even a menu option to change the audio- it must be done manually.
Certainly worth the purchase if you can find it for [$$$] ...- good as the film itself is, this is low-quality enough that you shouldn't be expected to pay any more.
Customer Rating: Summary: Only for Die Hard Jackie Chan Fans Comment: Don't expect a lot from this film. Although it is better than some of Jackie's earlier films under his contract with Lo Wei (New Fist of Fury, The Killer Meteors, Dragon Fist, and many others), it's not that great. The acting is pretty dull throughout most of the movie. The entire film is so full of plot wholes and boring scenes, that you rarely care about what's happening. Most of the action is better than some of Jackie's other movies from the early 70s, but they still need lots of work. Although some of them are interesting, the action is way too slow to fully entertain any Jackie Chan fan. This film should only be seen if you want to complete your Jackie Chan collection. Customer Rating: Summary: Rent it-don't buy it! Comment: This is one of those films Jackie Chan made under contract to Lo Wei, who was trying to squeeze him into Bruce Lee's mold. Unfortunately, in this film virtually everyone gets to beat the crud out of Jackie (even the girl!!)--how this was supposed to make him look like Bruce Lee, I don't know. The fights are poorly staged and badly filmed--in one fight Jackie just stands there and lets the other guy kick him in the head, then gets up and lets him do it again, over and over. Furthermore, in his attempts to look like Bruce, he just comes across as a mean SOB. The only humor here is of the unintentional kind--but there is loads of that-especially in the love story that runs parallel to the standard revenge plot. (There's the girl friend whose heart Jackie cruelly broke, but for whom he still pines, and there's the girl who loves Jackie, but beats him up and tortures him every chance she gets--yeah, it's weird!) That's the only reason I gave it any stars at all. If you are on a mission to see every movie Jackie Chan ever made, then this one is actually pretty entertaining, if only to marvel at how anyone could have dreamed that a little bow-legged, putty-nosed clown like Jackie Chan could ever have been another Bruce Lee!! Customer Rating: Summary: the finest jackie chan movie Comment: Start your collection here. Youll love the kung fu, the costumes, and the storyline is classic. Jackie Chans skills will be tested by his most notorious enemies. Great character development full of surprizes!! Who is the fifth dragon? Who is the leader of the bloody rain clan? Kung fu magic.
