This modern blockbuster skillfully reinterprets everything that made Heroic bloodshed classics like The Killer and A Better Tomorrow so successful with a compelling plot great characters a charismatic hero and above all breathtaking ballistic action. Hong Kong's latest superstar Ekin Cheng plays Tong Chun an impressively ruthless Triad boss who commands the respect of all his men. His friend Wei (Ben Lam) is jealous of his status and secretly sets him up... Ekin Cheng's cool gun-toting style is superbly pitted against Ben Lam's amazing kung fu prowess Chingamy Yau looks sexy as ever and screen villain Ngai Shing chills as the murderous hitman Dutch. But the real star of this excellent movie is Director Wong Jing who squeezes in enough brilliantly choreographed action to blow your mind! A great new twist to a classic genre.
In Last Hero in China, Jet Li reprises the role of Wong Fei-hung, a legendary figure in China. Both a doctor and a teacher of martial arts, Wong has just moved his school in Canton, only to discover that the neighbouring house is a brothel. Though Wong's students are delighted and the earnest brothel master only wants to study with him, Wong feels he has lost face. But this becomes the least of his troubles: soon he's fighting a corrupt police chief, a temple of slave-trading monks and a deafness-causing medicine sold to children--and that's just in the first hour. Last Hero in China is a grand melodrama, featuring exaggerated heroes and villains, goofy humour and hyperbolic kung fu action. The plot takes some hard-to-follow turns, but the action is so non-stop it hardly matters. The lion vs centipede dance/fight has to be seen to be believed, to say nothing of the priest with a floating lotus chariot and a flying claw. Jet Li is in fine form, Gordon Liu (as the venal top cop) is maniacal and despicable, and the lovely Cheung Man plays an expert martial artist looking for her kidnapped sister. The character of Wong Fei-hung also appears in the Once Upon a Time in China series (where he was first played by Li) and in Jackie Chan's Drunken Master movies. --Bret Fetzer, Amazon.com
