Vol. 5

A Hong Kong Film

Jet Li in

「Once Upon A Time In China & America」

Jet Li is one of the most famous kung-fu action star in Hong Kong and he made his debut in "Lethal Weapon 4" as a Hollywood action actor.
The characteristics of his action is the "speed." If you saw "Lethal Weapon 4," you know how his action is fast.

The stage of this film is America in the era of frontier. Wong Fei Fon, who is the hero of this film, was the real hero in Chinese history.
The highlight of the film is how Jet Li gives his kung-fu action to the western gun men. His brilliant action overwhelmed the gunmen. But I think the gunmen's action is the problem. Once they loose their guns, they start kung-fu fighting. That was weird. I wanted the action coordinator of this film to research how the kung-fu and the American street fighting can fight equally.

But the weird point is also the attraction of this film. You can laugh and also are impressed by the action.

I think this is one of the most greatest B classed action film in the world.
If you like both kung-fu and western, you have to see this film.
