4.0 out of 5 stars Classic HK Gangster film, February 25, 2009

To start I was searching for this movie for about 2 years , after seeing the first movie Rich & Famous. Finally I found it here, and it was worth the wait . I was not disappointed . I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes HK gangster movies. Plenty of Bullets and bloodshed with a good touch of drama makes Tragic Hero a great watch.

This review is from: Tragic Hero [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I saw this film in the theatre on a Chow yun fat film festival. I found the film very amateureshly written. I know action films suspend belief, but this was ridiculous (a woman gets shot in the head, but dosen't die for about 7 minutes, chow recieves over 30 bullet hits in the filnale, but survives.) The story itself was intriguing, but the gun battles were ver outlandish, and out of place (shing fui on's demise is particularly laughable). I can take many stupid violent films of the eighties (AMerican" Lethal Weapon, HK: Tiger on beat), but this one goes too far. It should have stuck with it's story, and not tried try solely to live up to the better tomorrow body count. Danny Lee has a particularly good cameo.
