Action Member: Robert Tai

The film that started it all has an intriguing mystery element to it that keeps the viewer engaged in the storyline and Chang Cheh even plays with elements of gothic horror in the way it’s shot.

For anyone who wants a change from the late-70s kung fu comedy cycle, ‘The Heroes’ is a film that is heartily recommended.

Not as plot driven or character based as ‘Five Venoms’, ‘The Kid With The Golden Arm’ concentrates on the stylish action that dominates its running time.

‘The Thundering Mantis’ is a three star film that earns a fourth for its remarkable ending and Leung Kar Yan’s virtuoso performance as the hero driven straight over the edge.
