Millionare's Express was boring and uninteresting and only liked 2 fights. Police Story 2.... just didn't entertain all the time so it was difficult to watch... especially since I didn't care for the fight scenes DARDREX PRODUCTIONS. No life! A camera! And High kicks! Kung Fu San So, Shotokan Karate, Muay Thai, Taekwondo, and Jeet Kune Do. http://www.youtube.com/user/dardrex777

Personally I really like Swordsman 2, but not at all for the action really. Derek The Breakfast Machine

Fists of Bruce Lee, Image of Bruce Lee, etc etc... I can't watch more than about 20 minutes of any of them without slipping into a coma. I'd write some reviews on Way of the Socky about how boring they were, but I'd have to watch them through to the end first and I have no intention of doing that. ~Mike Reckless Ninja Squad (my stunt team) - http://ninjasquad.wayofthesocky.co.uk Way of the Socky (kung fu movie reviews) - http://www.wayofthesocky.co.uk

And I disagree with some of yours like Millionaires express that is also like armour of god. And I dont mention Swordsman movies coz I hate does kind of, doesnt need my even attention.

I have never been able to sit through more than half of it. Dragon Lee movies are also a chore to sit through, regardless of whether he was fighting Hwang Jang Lee at the end or not

Let me also ad to the list: Exiled Savior Of The Soul 2 Circus Kids Don't Open Your Eyes Iron Monkey 2 Drunken Tai Chi ( some nice fights, but movie and the final are just bad) Out Of The Dark Tricky Master Both Zu movies Four Dragons Mr 3 Minutes It's A Wonderful Life And almost all of the SB movies!

But how can you put From Beijing With Love, A Moment of Romance and Last Blood on that list? They're excellent movies.
