Black Mask (1996)
a.k.a.: "Hak hap"

Cast: Jet Li, Ching Wan Lau, Karen Mok, Matt McKenzie, Françoise Yip, Kong Lung, Anthony Wong Chau-Sang
DIRECTED BY: Lee, Daniel

This movie has some funky set designs... almost cartoonish at times. The story line and plot is the usual good battling evil as Jet defends the good against steroid pumped up gangland ninjis trying to take over the drug trade in Hong Kong. There's lots of action in this movie of course, with excellent hand to hand fight scenes as well as lots of explosions. This film isn't to be taken very seriously, thanks to the dubbing of voices and the silly comic relief...
But if you like this genre like I do, its fun to watch and have a good laugh with...

By the way, it's rumored that Jet Li is getting out of making martial arts movies, which is sad news to hear...so if you want something to remember him by, you can click on the poster where you'll be taken to MovieGoods.com and you can purchase the movie poster...
