Sorry, this movie sucks

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Plot is not important. This is martial arts. Something about avenging the master's death, I suppose. The lack of plot is not what makes this movie unworthy of my full attention. It is not the bad acting, the bad dialog (although the bad English language version may not be helping) or the bad fighting sequences. I've sat through worse and enjoyed the films. There is just no feeling to this movie. No core. No central something to make the bad elements add up to something half way decent. I've written about the highs and the lows of martial arts cinema. This isn't doesn't even register. Wow. I can't finish the film. Now I'll never know how the brothers get together and defeat the guy with the metal mask.

Comic book based martial arts film about two brothers who reunite and with the help of a friend battle evil in a city.Spectacular but over the top wire work sequences are the main draw in what is a purely by the book affair. Certainly for fans the action is all that is needed here but its comic book over the topness coupled with a wafer thin story line make it less than enthralling. I'm sure this would have played better had I read the comic, unfortunately I didn't so I felt more than just a little lost.Worth a look for action fans and martial arts mavens all others should decided based upon their mood.

I had been looking forward to Dragon Tiger Gate since even before its Asian theatrical release. Same director (Wilson Yip) and action choreographer (Donnie Yen) as Sha Po Lang (aka Killzone on your videostore walls), and also once again co-starring Donnie Yen. It also stars Shawn Yue (who I don't know) and Nicholas Tse, who I've been assured many times by my friend Kim is a uber-hottie. This one was definitely just a straight-up action movie with visual effects to emphasize the coolness factor. I enjoy the occasional flashy action movie, and actually really got into this one, characters and all. Instead of saying much about plot, let's just say that 2 of the 3 leads are brothers who hadn't seen each other in a long time, and they team up with a new friend to kick some bad guy ass. Not for those of you who hate unrealistic action. Though I always enjoy seeing Donnie Yen kick a guy so hard he flies 20 feet back and through a wall.Dragon Tiger Gate had nominations at this year's Hong Kong film awards for action choreography and visual effects.

Since i was a youngster i have always been fascinated with martial arts films and this is one of the best martial arts films you will ever see.If you enjoyed Kung Fu Hustle then you will have an absolute ball with this film. You will be treated to some of the most mesmerising fight scenes you will ever see, and the best rope work in any martial arts film out at the moment.The story is fairly good, not great but to be honest it wasn't the main focus. This film also reminded me of another called "A man called Hero" which focused on the struggling hero with great ability and guilt fighting evil, which is the main story running through this film.If you are into great martial arts films do not miss this opportunity you will not be disappointed.
