(1996) Dr. Wai: The Scripture With No Words
(In Chinese with English subtitles)
HISTORICAL FICTION ACTION/ DRAMA
One of Jet Lee's weaker films in terms of both action and plot which showcases the story line in different segments than to allow Jet Lee to really showcase his stuff. More drama than action and intended only for die hard Jet Lee enthusiasts. Like many martial art movies, I judged this movie by how much martial arts it has, as well as how much innovative martial art scenes it has. I must confess, I did not pay too much attention to the story, and just used the fast forward button while playing. Since I read somewhere during this time, because "action" and "comedic sequences" were the two genres that Hong Kong viewers prefer watching, I just assumed 'story' is sometimes built around comedy and action scenes.
