Movie Reviews of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde
Movie Review: Reminds me of Remo Williams
Summary: 2 Stars
If you liked Remo Williams - The Adventure Begins (1985) you may like this movie which is along the same lines - i.e. Man from the west is trained by Kung Fu master to be a force for good. However, if I were to compare, I seem to recall liking Remo Williams a lot more for the humour. Joel Grey in that movie was hilarious as he played out all the oriental stereotypes while at the same time injecting a unique fastidiousness.
This movie's link to the original Jekyll and Hyde story is nothing more than the names of the character played by Adam Baldwin. Like Remo, it was also intended to be a pilot for a TV series, but it wasn't very promising in the execution.
The plot was rather loose and the vengeance motivation is a powerful drive that needs a powerful resolution which I do not get from this movie.
The martial arts by today's standard is rather basic.
I give it two stars cos knowing what I know now, I'd rather watch Remo Williams.
