3.0 out of 5 stars
Lo Lieh is NOT "The Lizard"!,
By Russell Mariacher "R.A.M.'67" (Fishers, IN USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Lizard (DVD)
Why Celestial Pictures (via Image) chose to illustrate the packaging for this DVD of "The Lizard" (directed by Ho Meng-Hua) with the HEAVY of the film instead of the true star, Yueh Hua, is more misleading than Well Go USA's build-up of Fu Sheng for "Brave Archer and His Mate"! Egad!...Then, if one is watching this with subtitles, watch out: with Image's retooled type and layout, MORE than once, Lo Lieh's WHITE suit hinders reading of the WHITE subtitles! Next time, go yellow, guys (the subtitles, not the suit)....Finally, anyone watching this with impressionable types (children or otherwise) will want to go past the "adult" scene 2:37 in (lasting a minute): rememember, this may be "unrated", BUT....Quibbles aside, a decent Shaw take on a Zorro-esque hero who assumes the characteristics of a gecko (The inspiration for Kuo Chui's role in "The Five Venoms"? Watch it, and judge for yourself.); the formula plot that comes with this story will leave some rolling their eyes, however. The ending could've been edited for time (with the same outcome), too, but that's my opinion. Overall, any movie with "teen favorite Connie Chen Pao-chu" (sorry, Miley) can't be ALL bad! Recommended for Lo Lieh completists as well as those who enjoy the work of the underrated Yueh Hua....All the best, Brother Fang.
