Fantastic 4 Hong Kong Style.......2006-07-07
I own two of the movies on this DVD, but "Edge of Fury" is a worn VHS tape that badly needs replacement. I can order it from Amazon at a quite reasonable price. This is one of my three "Bruce Li" movies starring sexy lady Dana and Ho Chung Tao as Bruce. As usual, Dana is nude several times, and that is the best part of the film. I suppose this is the best of the series. She is the wife of an old man who is executed in Thailand for drug smuggling. She has a young lover and will inherit her husband's fortune, so she is happy about his predicament. "Bruce" manages to have many long, tedious fights, as usual. Nude Dana and amateurish fights fill all the time, so there is little pretense of a plot. Dana makes the movies worthwhile I think. ... I also own "Blood Fight". It stars Yasuaka Kurata as a derlict former karate champion. He was in "Edge of Fury". He trains Yam Tet Wah (Simon Yam) who is killed in a bout with Yang Tze(Bolo Yeung) Kurata San gets back in training to avenge his pupil. Can he do it? Buy the movie and see! ... I saw "Chinese Hercules" long ago. All I recall is that it stars Bolo Yeung who is built like Hercules. He is a bodybuilder and quite massive for a martial artist. ...I haven't seen "Breathing Fire" unless it is a retitled movie. I can see all four of these movies when I order the DVD from Amazon
Average customer rating:
- Mildly Enjoyably Kung Fu
- Solid Movie starring movie villian Chan Wai Man
- Not a good movie at all.

Mildly Enjoyably Kung Fu.......2005-06-24
If you like kung fu movies, you'll probably get some mild enjoyment (keyword: mild) out of "Chinese Hercules." It's about a guy who kills his fiance's brother. Feeling awful about it, he runs off to start a new life and a new identity, vowing never to kill again. But, this being a kung fu movie, you can be damn sure there's gonna be some serious a$$ whuppin' by the time it's done. Bolo "Enter the Dragon" Yeung is heavily hyped on the box (and the movie's title, "Chinese Hercules," is actually one of his nicknames), but he actually only plays a small role as a henchman.
The DVD I got is from Front Row Entertainment. The image is pan and scan, heavily cropped from the film's probable 2.35:1 aspect ratio. The image is extremely bad - very, very faded and scratchy. The sound is dubbed. While purists might complain, I sometimes get a kick out goofy dubbed dialogue. Unsurprisingly, there are no extras.
Solid Movie starring movie villian Chan Wai Man.......2002-10-01
Well,This movie is about a young man who thinks that he killed his girlfriends brother. In doing so runs off and smashes his hand and swears to never again use his fists. He gets a job at
a pier working for some bad men. The boss of the bad men sells
out to the syndicate and in turn has to get rid of the workers
at the pier any way he can. When his friends start ending up dead the young man must once again raise his fists.The star of the movie is Chan Wai Man who kung fu movie collectors know very well as a common movie villian - but, here he is the good guy. The movie is old and originally had a different title.When they repackaged and changed the title - they capitalized on the fame of Bolo Yeung who plays one of the villians in the movie. The Fighting is solid - I have seen far better and far worse. Their are some minor volume problems in the movie as well. I have given this movie three stars for the simple fact that I have seen hundreds of kung fu movies and martial arts movies and this rates slightly above average to me.
Not a good movie at all........2001-12-13
Bolo Yeung, the only skilled fighter in this movie, is not the star of the film as the box would have you believe. The main character is an actor who shows no skill in martial arts. His character flips out in the beginning after killing someone and then runs away. The rest of the plot thereafter is nearly indecipherable. Bolo is the 'Darth Vader' of the movie. The big villain uses him to beat good guys to death. Bolo's Shotokan is excellent in the movie, but that is the works only redeaming value.
OK could have been better.......2000-07-07
The fight scenes in this movie are totally amazing. The dubbing in the movie is horrible so if you are into movies like that such as godzilla, then this movie is for you.
