Watch the Trailer below:
Finally!!!! A “new” release where I don’t already own 5 copies
😂 These labels are really strategizing these days.
I think The prodigal son is one of the…10 best martial arts movies ever made, On the run is IMHO a “splendid movie, The champions is a charming little action comedy, etc.
But I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS ROSA!!!!
Gonna check it out fast, because days of ordering movies thinking just “Hey, that looks fun!” are over for me. It’s not just the money, but I’ve bought too many disappointing (or worse) flicks these past 4-5 years.
After watching the trailer: a few “Lucky Stars” vibes… It was a good thing 20 years ago, now…not so much.
Give it a chance. Its a charming little movie. Great double bill with Naughty Boys
I hope the black face scene won’t get cut like in the French 4KUHD/BD of Shanghai blues…
