Wong Jing does John Woo
Mercenaries from Hong Kong is a Shaw Brothers venture into the territory seen in the likes of both The Dirty Dozen and The Wild Geese. With a visceral onslaught of sight gags, light-hearted banter and energetic synth score contrasting heavily with the never-ending action, bloody knife fights and some of the very grim elements; Wong Jing earns his director's paycheck, establishes his style from less-than-humble beginnings and gives us a flair for what would shape the later years of Hong Kong cinema.Cet avis était-il utile?
