Movie Reviews of Tiger on Beat
Movie Review: Chainsaw on chainsaw action in an extended fight filled finale. Yes, there is a God
Summary: 4 Stars
Tiger on the Beat is a straight-up weird movie. It really has a cartoon feel to it with Chow Yun-Fat's clothes and especially the Mini Cooper he drives. The title song from the great James Wong is classic too. Conan Lee(Ninja In the Dragon's Den) becomes Chow's partner after a cartoony first meeting between the two which involves Chow peeing his pants. Jet Li's real life wife Nina Li plays drug smuggling Phillip Ko's sister and when Phillip Ko is killed she is in Chow's hands. This is the only part of the movie I really didn't like. After Chow beats the crap out of her to get information on the drug smuggling, 2 scenes later she is making him dinner hoping that he becomes her lover. Now supposedly this was well received in Hong Kong because Nina was known as being stuck up but it certainly won't work for most normal people.
Now the movie doesn't have a ton of fights except a few here and there but the end is spectacular and there are some really good car stunts. Ti Lung also has a brief fight cameo which was AWESOME!!!!
The version I have from Zoke Movies has perfect picture quality and great subtitles. I don't know if it is a bootleg but it is the same as the Hong Kong Legends version with interviews with the producer(in English) and Gordon Liu(in Chinese with no subs)and commentary from Bey Logan.
