Review
by Kozo: |
Wannabe Milky Way thriller that’s watchable but only if bored.
Michael Wong leads a group of four thieves who abide by the
“Hung Kwai” or Blood Rules. As can be expected, a deal goes
bad and people start dying when the rules are broken. Then,
our heroes must attempt vengeance on those that would break
the rules. Yep, it sounds like a Milky Way movie, but
the whole thing is submarined by an idiotic love subplot involving
practically the whole cast. That's right: the whole cast,
including Lam Suet, who carries a torch for Suki Kwan, who
wants Michael Wong, but he has a wife (Pauline Yam). If that
weren't enough, former Mei-Ah pitchman Stephen Au Kam-Tong
shows up and provides possibly the most annoying performance
of the year. You should watch The Mission for
the thirty-fifth time before checking out The Blood Rules.
There are some gripping violent moments, but nothing else
to keep us interested. (Kozo 2000) |
