Storyline
Featured review
Intentional spoof of Swordsplay movies.
I always appreciates movies that spoofs of a serious genre in the very same period that genre rules. It's the case of this averaged BROKEN SWORD, starred by Ko Shiao Pao (a fatty-character in almost 300 movies, mostly Wushapian and Gongfupian), in a typical story of swordsmen and swordswomen. I saw Pao in almost everything, but I never saw him as a leading star, so that's why I rated this a broken 6, moreover the opening credits in cartoon style are a welcome change in a so abused genre like Wusha. Among the others in this intentional parody, Taiwan's superstar Ko Chun Hsiung and Lui Ming (THE BAMBOO BROTHERHOOD). The nice Ko Shiao Pao/Got Siu Bo died in 2000, age 71, survived by his father Ko Hsiang Ting, a famous actor too (A GIRL FIGHTER and others 256 movies) who died in 2010 at 94.
