The problem with the dvd box set of his old movies, and a lot of his old movies...PAN/SCAN..crap! One of the good things about the old movies....the fights...and these are not as good in pan/scan.
Anyway, I have always felt this movie had a good story, but weak fights. Good Review Jon.

Some of his old movies are fantastic. I love Hong Kong action movies from all ages, I think I prefer late 80's - mid 1990's, though, there are some great movies during that time period.One earlier movie that rules is Dragon Fist. The first older Hong Kong action movie I saw, but the fight at the end is one of my favorites ever! I think Drunken Master II has overall the best fighting, but I'd have to say one of my top ones is from First Strike. That fight rocks, with the ladder and all.
Yeah, well the DVD quality of To Kill With Intrigue was super horrible. There is static in the background during most of it, pretty bad in some places, sounds like someone left a TV on with it all black and white, just a static sound...
It's really too bad. I think that could be fixed relatively easily.
