Customer Reviews of Eastern Condors
Condors Rocks! Cool remake of "The Dirty Dozen". The plot follows a ragtag group of recruits on a mission to destroy a hidden weapons bunker. A fit looking Samo Hung stars and directs this nonstop action movie. Lots of Hong Kong Cinema Superstars; Lam Ching Ying portrays the unit commander. Legend Yuen Woo Ping (Martial Arts Director "Matrix") appears as part of the crew. Dr. Haing S. Ngor, 1984 Best Supporting Actor winner for "The Killing Fields", is rescued from a villiage and joins the team enroute. Mercenary Yuen Biao is recruited at the same time. The guys are paired up with a feminine trio of freedom fighters, including Samo's real life wife Joyce Godenzi. Yuen Wah masters the role of the creepy bad guy and gets to showcase his martial arts skills. Lots of gritty gunbattle scenes and explosions. Superb stuntwork by most of the cast. Fight scenes with some of the best martial arts actors ever. The scene with the young boys directing the Russian Roulette game will haunt you. Samo makes very creative use of the local flora in the jungle fight scene. He also uses slow motion to showcase the moves of the lightning fast Yuen Biao. If you like war movies you will want to own this one. I bought the English dubbed version, but will also be purchasing the subtitled version.
Rumble in the Jungle
A combination of Rambo and The Dirty Dozen, it's a far cry from Hamlet, but if you want to watch some great fight scenes, this film will cater to you needs. Sammo Hung, Yuen Woo Ping, Yuen Biao, Yuen Wah, Lam Ching Ying, and company live up to their collective reputation as some of Hong Kong's best hitters. A company of convicts are offered the chance of a pardon for their crimes if they blow up an American arms stockpile left behind in Vietnam. Needless to say, things get a little violent, nothing goes right, the mission turns into a localized Armegeddon, and more kicks are thrown than in a soccer game. The hand to hand fight at the end between Sammo and Yuen Wah, the perpetual bad guy, is very well done and very authentic. If you can stand the incomprehensible antics between the fights, you'll really enjoy this film.
Sammo Hung's ultimate tour de force.
Sammo Hung perfects the term "non-stop action" in this ...kicking, fire fighting, tree climbing, knife wielding adventure based on "The Dirty Dozen". Sammo and Yuen Biao demonstrate what skill is all about and manage to amaze without using a wire. Jackie Chan is the man, but his two buddies from school reign supreme in this film that Jackie wishes he would have thought of first.
