    Is it just me, or did I miss it in the cinema? I can't find out when it's coming out in UGC and the release date for the DVD is 28/08/04. :(

    It was really bad compared to most Hong Kong Legend films, and they are BAAAD. Well, it's HKL IIRC.

    What's wrong with HKL?
    Some very good films in their catalogue.

    UGC showed it as part of a film festivel earlier this year, and as i've mentioned before in the other thread, it's total cack.

    i got the dvd there 2 weeks ago, or whenever it came out. anyway, i knew everyone here (and elsewhere) said it was muck. but i didn't think so. obviously it's not as good as the first, but i wasn't expecting a remake or a rehash of the first movie. anyone who watched the trailer months ago would have known that it was going to be a lot different.

    i liked it for what it was. i think OPS2 magazine said it best, "when compared to the first BR movie you can't help but feel that you just had a distinctly average experience"...
