So, 'Hong Kong Godfather' from 1985 is one of those wild rides that you don't come across every day. It has this gritty, raw vibe that complements its action-packed sequences. The pacing is interesting; it lulls you into a false sense of security before hitting you with some intense moments. The way it handles themes of loyalty and betrayal within the crime world is pretty engaging. And the performances, while not always polished, have a certain authenticity that draws you in. The practical effects are noticeable but add to that gritty charm. Honestly, it’s that unique blend of East meets West that makes it stand out in the genre. Definitely a film that grows on you upon rewatching.
Features a mix of Eastern and Western cinematic styles. · Notable for its practical effects despite budget constraints. · Interesting exploration of crime dynamics in both New York and Hong Kong.
