Dynamite Brothers

Director: Al Adamson

Action Director: Lam Ching-Ying

Plot: When a Chinese immigrate, Larry Chin (Alan Tang) travels to America in search of his brother he finds himself being hand cuffed to a ‘bad cat’ named Stud Brown. The dirty cops, that are under the control of a Chinese crime lord loosing their captives. Now on the run the two men form a bond and choose to fight back against the crime lord and reunite Larry with his brother.

Review: Al Adamson directs this lacklustre of a American martial arts movie which gives off the vibes of Shaft meets Bruce Lee in this wholesome piece of movie trash. The film is filled with comical racism, the most dullest shoot outs, they would probably make John Woo cry and so many goofs it actually becomes a fun game of spotting the f*ck ups.

Your probably wondering why the hell I put myself through this, well there is only one guy who can persuade me to watch these trash-masters – Lam Ching-Ying! Or as he’s credited in this movie “Lam Jing-Ying”, Mr. Vampire is not only the action director of the movie, but he also appears in the movie on three occasions as a henchmen who usually dies after a karate chop or two.

I knew right away what kind of movie this was going to be when the DVD Menu options included “Play the Movie Sucka!” and “Pick a Scene Turkey!”

Any notable appearances? Well towards the end of the movie Mars and Billy Chan make short lived appearances as henchmen who get their asses whooped. Philip Kwok has also been credited but I didn’t seem to notice him in the movie, possibly hiding his face in shame.

Now reviewing the movie seriously instead of thinking it’s so bad it’s good, I would probably have to say this movie is terrible. Bad acting, terrible gun fights, blinding pink flash backs and Bruce Lee war crying bad guys, it can’t get any worse than this. Aviod like the plague or if you want to piss yourself laughing, give it a rent.

Rating: 2.5 out of 10.0
