4.0 out of 5 stars First-rate HK actioneer, April 14, 1999

This review is from: Tiger Cage (DVD)

This is a gritty and tough HK crooked cop movie and certainly not for everyone. But if you like action and don't mind a little blood this one will not disappoint. Donnie Yen is one of the best martial artists around. Simon Yam always delivers a strong performance and Do Do Cheng is as beautiful and tough as ever. Just ignore Jacky Cheung's usual over-acting.

4.0 out of 5 stars Terrific actors to a typical cop-movie, February 28, 2001

By 

Seal (Hawaii) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Tiger Cage (DVD)

Considering this movie was produced over a decade ago...I guess its safe to say that its pretty good (well, I kept my eyes mostly on Donnie Yen, and he's very good!!)

It's a typical Cop-Story, of fellow cops backstabbing and framing each other over drugs, but I'll admit, all the actors/actress are exceptionally terrific in this movie. The story is done just right; enough drama to keep me in suspense throughout the entire movie (I could actually feel their emotional pain.) There's alot of gun firing (and I mean alot) and also lots of killings and blood, so it's certainly action-packed.

And of course, great martial arts (Yuen Woo-Ping and Donnie Yen always put together the best of fighting scenes!) Donnie Yen shows off more of his US boxing skills...and WOW...he is so fast! And the end to this movie is also done well, nothing in the storyline is left unfinished so you'll feel completely satisfied.

This movie is great, but check out tiger cage II...not a sequel tho...this is where donnie yen showcases his amazing kicks, and he was the action choreographer also...along w/other movies...this guy is just multi talented. and...great acting...one of the funniest donnie yen roles you'll ever see.
