TOP MOVIE !!!
By a customer from GLASGOW , 31 Aug 2005[Highly rated reviewer]
The Last Hero In China is a spin-off of the Once Upon a Time In China series, which also stars Jet Li as the legendary Chinese hero Wong Fei-Hung. It's sort of a spoof, actually; though its central story is every bit as sincere as any from the proper series, there is considerable humor, most of which results from the misadventures of Wong Fei-Hung's students. It's pretty lowbrow stuff, and some of it is undermined by the brutality of the villains, but ultimately the film adds up to a nice balance of action and comedy. Fans of Jet Li, or Hong Kong martial arts pictures in general, should check this out, but as the movie drags a bit in the second half and never does anything overly memorable, it is unlikely to appeal to a crossover audience.- Was this review helpful to you?

a real turkey
By kung fu queen from london , 01 Dec 2006this film is unbearable. it is absolutley impossible to follow, the comedy is not in the slightest bit funny, there is no kung fu, only ridiculous over the top special effects, and whats more, its subtitled, which i usually dont have a problem with, but in this case you are already struggling to follow the tedious plot & are liekly to fall asleep. So i suppose then it has one use . The once upon a time series was good - if you like that, dont watch this.- Was this review helpful to you?

Funny business
By redeyerat from West Sussex , 09 Jun 2005Excellent wirework by Mr Lee and Co, but a set in what can only be described as a panto at times. Slapstick comedy with ridiculous acting and poor story, but I guess that's not why most people watch Jet Lee movies.- Was this review helpful to you?
