Disturbing yet enthralling

Absolutely Fantastic

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Picked out solely by its generic DVD title, 'Warriors Two', i was pleasantly surprised by this film. The first arc, aka the story, is pretty much forgettable. The rest of the movie, is pretty much fight scenes, and training scenes where the student gets the fu*k beaten out of him. Once the fight scenes start happening, this movie doesn't let up much, just constant people beating the sh*t out of each other, its pretty awesome. The fight styles and whatnot are bad-ass as expected, the acting good, the stunt-work is great, cinematography isn't that bad either. A awesome action film with a somewhat slow start, worth a watch for sure.

This is clearly Sammo Hung's tribute to the Shaw Bros. style, which set the standard for Hong Kong film-making for two decades; practically all the great Hong Kong action directors worked for Shaw Bros. at one time, or paid tribute to it in one way or another, up until about 1993. The earmarks of the style developed at Shaw studios include heavy use of elaborate sound-stage exteriors; very steady camera-work with occasional hand-held close-ups for effect, a particularly atmospheric lighting that nonetheless emphasized primary colors. A particular aspect of Shaw narrative style is that the villain would usually be either of aristocratic stock or would have certain aristocratic qualities that would make him admirable if he weren't so greedy or power hungry. The Shaw heroes were always remarkably virtuous, and usually had a side-kick as noble, and sometimes as skilled. The typical Shaw film involved an elder, sometimes of aristocratic background, sometimes simply aristocratic in quality, and usually well-known as a martial-arts master; unfortunately this elder is always doomed to be the villain's chief victim, thus setting the heroes out on their quest for revenge.All these elements are here - every last one - and accomplished with a high quality professional finesse. with this film, Hung demonstrated his command of the medium as Hong Kong film audiences understood it according to the highest standards held for it at the time. And, of course, it must be admitted that the film is rip-roaring fun for any real fan of the martial-arts genre.Not necessarily a classic, but certainly looks as good as one!

This is arguably one of the best martial arts movies ever made. It features the typical ingredients in terms a storyline, corrupt evil enemies, young innocent scamp who learns martial arts for revenge, and a good dose of comedy.Those who have seen enough Jackie Chan training scenes will love the interesting training that our young scamp has to go through.What elevates this from others is its amazing fight scenes, particularly the scene where the wing chun master fights the whole enemy crew with his amazing wing-chun. Not only this, the character was played brilliantly and you really care for this character, he isn't just a card cutout character! A must see, go buy this now

Directed by and staring Sammo Hung (whose character, as usual, is referred to as Fatty!), this kung fu flick was definitely one of the good ones. The first half was mostly standard fare but things picked up nicely at around the midpoint. After the cool training sequence, Fatty and friends each pick one of the different-styled baddies and seek them out to set things right. The last 20 minutes or so just kick butt, cumulating with the top bad guy whipping out a creepy praying-mantis style on our heroes that must be seen to be believed. As a Hung production, it does feature some of his cheesy but harmless brand of comedy but he also makes sure to splatter some blood in deserving scenes. Also, for such a movie, there were a number of shots that looked like they were lifted right out of a Chinese horror movie! When I finished the film, I watched the original trailer on the DVD, in which Chinese descriptions appeared over the scenes, translated underneath. Here are a few lines that occurred during some fight scenes: It's authentic! It's clearly shown! It's greatly entertaining! And it was. I just thought that was amusing…"clearly shown" isn't part of the modern fight choreographer's vocabulary.
