We have a new champion!
Holder of the "Worst Subtitles" belt is now this 1993 film, starring Khan and Lee:
illiterate when
they aren't completely illegible. That's a shame, as it's a rollocking,
flying swordplay flick, which has Lee playing one of the titular fighters,
who grows to suspect their struggle against evil might not be as virtuous
as it seems. What starts off looking cheesy gets steadily better, with some
great locations and fine fights, although they overdo the undercranked film
a tad. Khan smoulders intensely as the daughter of the Eagles' nemesis, who
teams up with Lee when he discovers the truth, and finds his former
colleagues are now out to kill him. And then there's the kung-fu kids:
'Cold Blooded Eagles: The Next Generation'? Full of imagination, to be
sure.
B+
