Flying in the back and forth. “Young Dragons” is the first known film by the now famous director John Wu.
This is the story of the brave thug Ji Hoon, who robbed a police car, thereby obtaining a firearm. First, he seeks to kill the criminal leader Lung Ye, pursuing exclusively selfish goals. But the fateful events reinforce Ji Hoon's hatred for the dishonest mafia. There can be no two gangs - a clash is inevitable.
The fighting going on in the course of events is simply magnificent. Kungfu is presented in all its glory: sweeping blows, lightning-fast reaction, spectacular falls, loud sounds at physical contact. Once again, the mentality demonstrated in the film is surprising: no meeting passes without a spectacular file, and the mental attitude of the characters to the fight is equivalent to the attitude to warm up the back. After watching the film, one gets the impression that Chinese culture is the toughest and cruelest, and the Chinese ethnic group is the harshest and most combative.
The final fight deserves special praise: such an exciting duel of titans is not found in every fighting game.
