1.0 out of 5 stars
i thought of every reason I could to give this a 2, but came up with notta, May 6, 2006
This review is from: Little Godfather (DVD)
I mean bruce liang, yasuaki kuratu, and director/producer ng see-yuen and you should have a great movie. Wow did this one fail. I love ng but he should have never made another movie again after this. I mean the camp is there. The movie is certainly better than those ninja spliced up godfrey ho movies. But sadly I have seen like 1 or 2 godfrey ho movies that were better than this. And if you were to tell me today that you know of another godfrey movie that I haven't seen that is better than this, then bring it on. But this movie is truly one that you should not watch unless you wanna see the dumbest freaking movie there is. Let's just say that if you really liked the story in game of death, then there is like a 3% chance you will like this. The action takes up around 7 minutes of the 86 minute running time. And only 2-3 minutes are good. Now if you don't know of bruce liang, and you love godfrey ho movies, then I take everything back that I ever said of this and have to say that you weird people will be in for a rela treat. But seriously, liang can kick with ANYBODY. Only a selective bunch I would put ahead of him. Hwang lee, john liu, and jet li. But he is right up there with them. I would even put him slightly above dorian tan. Barely though, just barely.
So teh movie freaking sucks big you know whats, btu the final fight is pretty good. It involves a lot of running and only lasts like 4 minutes max, btu kuratu and liang go at it HARD. Well, I guess I enjoyed the movie for like at least 2 minutes. Seriously, that's it.
The special features are a copuple of music videos. There is a special feature called inside the young master, it didn't play. i have a few other dvd plaeyrs I can try but I was kind of pissed. I mean it could have been like an interview with Bruce liagn himself, who you may also know as the Beast from Kung fu hustle. And there are 2 trailers including a long one from ten tigers of shaolin. It looks AWESOME. I would buy it but the trailer they show looks REALLY distorded, decent picture quality, but you it just looks like it is impossible to watch the movie.
So a godawful movie and really no action, i just can't think of any reasons to recommend this unless you want to see some white guy have yusuaki kuratu as a son, and not even come close to cleverly lure the little godfather into a movie he wants to make???
