Seven to One (1973)

Seven to One (1973). 1h 20m

“I rate this a broken 6 just for the cast, including Phoenix Shangkuan Lingfung Jap badguy Kurata, supermartialist Steve Lee Ka Ting and future legend Bruce Leung Siu Lung, all involved in a modern-day crime thriller where the deceiving Kurata plays the good guy that allys with the heroine at first, just to reveal himself as her toughest enemy. The wrong plot summary said this was set in contemporary China, so I corrected it since everybody knows (or should do) that China was a communist regime that prohibited not only the making, but also the importation of Martial Arts films from foreign countries like Hong Kong and Taiwan, and Martial Arts movies of 70u0026#39;s came exactly from Hong Kong and Taiwan. Seven to oneu0026#39;s director Hou Cheng and actor Kurata teamed-up again the same year for the slightly better Unsbudued Furies.”
