I was expecting the normal things in this film for the period it was set in i.e. martial arts moves that are just impossible and jumping up walls over roofs etc and exceptionally bad dialogue. I was pleasantly surprised the film was of good content and the fight sequences in the latter part of the film were very good. the dialogue at times was the only thing that let it down. Overall just my sort of thing and very enjoyable if you like martial arts.
