Laser Mission (1989)
Painful to watch
Ugh. This movie is an absolute stinker, redeemed only by the presence of Brandon Lee as Michael Gold, freelance spy. Lee takes a movie that had no business being made and shines as a legitimate actor in a movie that I probably could have made myself.
It is painful to watch Lee deliver his lines and acting as well as he does, while the rest of the cast seems to struggle with whether this is meant to be a comedy or a serious action flick. The leading lady is a joke, the cinematography is pitiful, the production quality is grainy and poor, the sound is in serious need of improvement, and the script is laughable.
See this ONLY if you are a Brandon Lee fan and want to see him in his earlier, pre-Showdown In Little Tokyo work.
Lin Shi Rong (1979)
Fast paced and fun.
For the fan of the classic Hong Kong kung fu movie, this one is just plain fun. Sammo Hung is comic, fierce, expressive, and a joy to watch in action. Yuen Biao is conniving, devious, and mean. The action is wild, the kung fu is fast and furious, the stunts are convincing, all in all a great chop-sockey type movie. If you enjoy this sort of thing, give it a try!
