    [Highly rated reviewer]

    The title of this DVD had me thinking it would be full of behind the scenes shots showing the stuntmen and women of Hong Kong action movies in action. A glimpse on how all those little tricks that make the bone crunching stunts what we know and love today are really a lot safer then what they seem. What I saw was mainly a documentary with a lot of people talking about how they got into the business and how the whole stunt world is one big family.

    I fully admit that at the half way point I was totally bored with all this talk and not much in the way of action so I switched off and put the DVD back into its case to be returned.

    If you have an interest in hearing the thoughts of those that work in the stunt profession then you will probably find this interesting.

    I was very disappointed when I put this in to watch on Sunday night as I was expecting a film. My own fault I didn't read what it was about before adding it to my list, It would be ideal for someone who has just got into marshal arts films to see what goes on behind the scenes, but not for the likes of me who has been watching and buying them for years, I'l make sure I read everything in future.
