Film Review

Cinema of Vengeance


Year: 1993

Directed by: Toby Russel

Cynthia Rothrock: appears in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it segment.

Other Players: Jackie Chan, Samo Hung, Bruce Lee

Plot Synopsis: Cinema of Vengeance is a pretty good retrospective on the various Hong Kong action-movie genres, and it has interesting behind-the-scenes stories and actor interviews. CR is on screen for less than one minute, however (I timed it), and they only show a few clips from Magic Crystal.

General Impressions: If you're interested in kung fu/HK action movies in general, or you want a look at the place where CR got her first breaks, this is a good choice. You might even get hooked on somebody new (if you're not a Jackie Chan fan, get with the program!).

Watch It?: Definitely, but not for CR.
