Eagle Shooting Heroes
(Dong Chen Xi Jiu) Release
year: 1993 Country: Hong Kong
'It took my seven digestive pills to dissolve
your hairy crab.' If you can figure that one out, you'll probably be able to make
sense of this all-star kung-fu farce. In slapstick style, characters cross-dress,
hallucinate, perform song-and-dance numbers, and fight each other (in fast and
slow motion). They also match wits with a full-sized ape, vulture, and rubber
lizard guarding man-sized goblets in a cave. Jackie Cheung (as the Beggar
Prince) and Leung Ka Fai (in a split gay/straight role) serve up the laffs, while
top-billed Brigitte Lin acts up a storm with a nothing more than a blink.
