Identify karate movie

Recommended Posts

I learned my lesson from last time. Here is the direct emailed question:

 

"But for the question I had, I saw the kung fu movie on TV once, and I've

always wanted to rent it, but I forgot it's name. Basically it's about two friends

who enter some town, and one joins the army, while the other doesn't. The

one's who joins the army goes on to become evil and they end up fighting. Do you

know the name?"

 

The description is real vague for me and doesn't ring a bell. Preliminary research uncovered nothing. Any info at all would be helpful. Thanks.

I have a question is this movie asian or american? Any other clues given? I have seen it shown on Stars network several times late night, until there is a better describtion I can only guess.

 

My big guess would be "Last Hurrah for Chilvary"

Little details like who was the main character and star of the movie would help. It could be anything from Billy Blanks to Richard Norton to Don Wilson to Bruce Lee clones

Man, imagine a movie with ALL of those guys in it. throw in BOLO~! and you've got a winner. Well, I guess Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren are perennial B-movie actioners too, so why not add them to the mix just for fun.

I don't know if this is the right one, as you don't have many details to give, but you just described Tai Chi Master (1993, Starring Jet Lee, Michelle Yeoh, and Chin Sui Hao) perfectly, as all of your details match up with this film.

 

There are quite a few films that share the same details though, this one just seems like the best fit.

 

Go to this page for some pictures of the film to show the guy to see if this is it or not.

You know what you are right! I have the DVD! but in USA under Dimension Home Video distribution it is called Twin Warriors

 

As for DVD Spree they did make a similiar to what I described it was called Millionaire Express! But it had Cynthia Rothrock, Richard Norton, Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao and others.

Thanks for the help guys. That seems like a really good fit from what little bit he told me. I might try to check with him before I put it in the column, if not I'll be sure to have it in there next week. Thanks again.

Twin Warriors/Tai Chi Master sounds like a good guess. And the film rocks, too.

I love that part where the guy wipes blood on his face and pretends he's dead so he doesn't have to fight. Awesome Action Movie.
