Movie Reviews of Heroes of the Wild
Movie Review: A film that hit me very hard
Summary: 4 Stars
Now the movie starts out with Chen Sing challenging a man who beat him in a duel some years ago. The man ends up fighting him and gets fatally injured. His son being about 15 or 16 years old picks up a couple of sai's and fights with Chen Sing. Not able to beat him and with nowhere to go now that his dad is dead, Chen says that he can travel with him and he will train the boy also so that when he is strong enough, he can take revenge against Chen. Weird concept? Not to me, I thought it was beautiful. This movie has stuck with me forever and oh yeah, the kung fu is REALLY good. Hwang Jang Lee and Lo Lieh as the bad guys, Doris Lung, Corey Yuen, and Yuen Biao as Hwang's 3 grandchildren, and opf course the great Chen Sing as the hero of the movie. Then the kid who he trains(and is constantly trying to muder Chen) is a really good fighter too and he really gets to show off with Hwang Jang Lee. I won't give away anything about the story but it is only so so. The real reason to watch this movie is for the southern fist vs. northern leg fights, the kid fights, and of course the theme of honor which has stuck with me forever. The movie is directed by William Chang who in recent years has been involved with movies like Zu Warriors, Chungking Express, The Blade, Ashes of Time, 2046, In the Mood For Love, and Dragon Tiger Gate Inn.
This 'Black Dragon Collection' version does have a minor cut. It is a part where Chen Sing is trying to teach the boy to have no feelings. He ends up getting really mad and throws the dog up against the wall and killing it. I can understand why they didn't show this. So if youare watching and think you missed something, you did, and now you know. The 50 pack that 'Tree Line Films' released has the uncut version. I still get tears welling up in my eyes when I think about this movie.
"Kill me at any time".
