Dragon Lee At His Best!
Movie-Misfit10 December 2014
The legacy of Godfrey Ho and Dragon Lee will never die. With films such as this and The Dragon, The Hero (not to mention many, many more) may not ever be known as mainstream, Oscar worthy material but in all honesty, they entertain far more than a lot of today's big films from Hollywood studios!

For a wee change, this one is set in modern times. Well, as it was back then... Tight denim, neck scarves and horse riding gear seems to be the choice of costume as we are set upon with a nonsensical and typical revenge plot but tons of fantastic, over the top, but nicely choreographed kung fu battles.

I really enjoyed this. Its why we fell in love with the kung fu classics and got hooked. The bad dubbing is just hilarious, the acting is crazy, and the characters are so comic book, you would be an idiot to take it all so seriously!

But its all about the kung fu, and Golden Dragon, Silver Snake has plenty that won't disappoint you.

Check it out!

Something so Bad can be so Good!
JimmyCamel6 February 2006
This is one of those movies you love to hate! Simple revenge story, with bad editing and even worse Dubbing!! you have to hear it to believe it!! it's just awesome. Dragon Lee stars as Golden Dragon and kicks ass the entire movie, fighting scenes are pretty good and sometimes pretty brutal! especially the last 35 minutes,The final battle,were he takes on like 20Hench man,and beats the crap out of them(Jackie Chan style) This movie even has a bad guy with a (gay)Cat!!What do you want more? So If you like the really cheesy (badly dubbed) Hong Kong movies, this one is a must have!! just enjoy it with a couple of friends and some beers, this one's Wicked!!
