Review of Eastern Condors (1987) by Tyler H — 18 Mar 2010
Not as good as "Pedicab Driver", but the martial arts are just are good, and the action more brutal than anything Ive seen from Hung so far. He stars here, along with a dirty dozen of Chinese soldiers(mostly immigrants) hired by the US goverment to infiltrate Vietnam and destroy a secret missile base.
Well initially they are only sent in to create a distraction, but as turns for the worst so quickly move in these films the motely crew become the last hope/line of defesne etc. Hung always works in genre but he never merely parodies, he tries to find the best in each of the genre's he works in, sometimes exploding or imploding them but always bieng playful like Hong Kong martial arts Robert Altman.
Fun.
