Henjin0's movie review blog
and the swindle continues........
Again I am a slacker and have failed to see another classic until now..
Once Upon A Time in China 1991-the full 134 minute version.
19th Century China is being exploited by numerous foreign powers. Sifu Wong Fei-Hung's martial arts school is caught in the middle of a plot between a local Triad and the Americans to enslave Chinese citizens and ship them off to build the railroads in the US. Wong must protect his friends and students while upholding the law and his honor. Sounds righteous and stuffy, right? Well it would be if it wasn't for the motherload of Kung Fu!!
Jet Li is his incredible, ass-kicking self. Putting the Wu-shu to evildoers! Not quite as spectular as Huo Yaun Jia, aka Fearless. But still a must see for Kung Fuyas Beware there's a 99 minute US cut out there, who knows how much Fu has been cut. I bought the trilogy so reviews of 2 and 3 later.
