This is not as action packed as I was hoping for, but a solid cast help a great deal. Mindless but enjoyable fun directed by hack film maker Wong Jing. I believe this was one of the first Shaw Brothers films to have a modern day setting.


Sex And Drugs And Rock & Roll
Biography of Ian Dury who despite being stricken with polio at a young age became one of the founders of the punk-rock scene in Britain in the 1970s. A little arty at times with some embellishments purely for dramatic effect, the central performance from Andy Serkis is outstanding. It helps that the songs are great too.
