Still looks classic

"Iron Horse" suffered a fiasco at the box office when it premiered in Hong Kong in 1993. When it was re-released in the United States in 2000, it received unprecedented praise and won the box office champion at the time. In 2010, it seems that this film is not out of date, and many details in the film highlight Yuan Heping's intentions.

In 1993, Donnie Yen was still in a state of half red and not purple. Although his skills were very good, his appearance at that time always gave people the feeling that he was neither yin nor yang, and he was full of evil spirits. Coupled with the fact that costume kung fu movies are Jet Li's world, and modern action movies are dominated by Jackie Chan, Donnie Yen really can't get along. Fortunately, Donnie Yen after "Slaying the Wolf" has found the right way to act, and he is becoming more and more good at acting.

In the film, Yu Rongguang also has high kicks and volleys. I really don't know that he is also a trainer?

The fire pile duel at the end is a classic.
