Let The Bullets Fly
Set in China during the warring 1920s, notorious bandit chief Zhang descends upon a remote provincial town posing as its new mayor, an identity that he had hijacked from Old Tang, himself a small-time imposter. Hell-bent on making a fast buck, Zhang soon meets his match in the tyrannical local gentry Huang as a deadly battle of wit and brutality ensues.
Critic Reviews:
- " This is a successful comedy, but a muddled plot. If you see it, go in looking for a light and convoluted romp. " – Ed Travis
- " 132 minutes of pure entertainment. " – David Harris
- " Fast, broadly funny, and violent, it's also relentless in its manipulation of audience response. " – Amy Taubin
