Could have been good...
So I bought this used tape for $2. Basic storyline: "Chinese guy returns home and kick the evil gangs butt." Now this movie could have been good, had they used proper actors, cut some static shots out and used people who have had at least some basic stunt training. A bit laughable at first, but the further you get into the movie, the slower it gets. I even found myself fastforwarding the action sequences at times. There are also some weird supernatural things happening in some scenes, things that are never explained. And here's a big spoiler for you - they never actually even try to find out if there is any gold. Oh well, no loss, you're not likely to ever see this film anyway. By the way, the cover says 1982, but who am I to argue with iMDB?
