Interesting perspective, Cosmic, on Drunken Angel. It is always a pleasure to catch your insight before seeing a film, and since this was a Blind Grab for me, it'll be playing about in the back of my mind when I check this out.
And I'm glad there was enough zaniness for Snake in the Eagle’s Shadow to work for you, CR, beyond the martial arts that doesn't. Jackie Chan does have an inherent knack for comedy and often uses a bit of slapstick in his fights. And since I've barely seen any of his older films, except clips from a documentary I remember watching back in the late nineties regarding him and two friends, Yuen Biao and Sammo Hung, who were all trained similarly and got into films around the same time,
along with the enjoyment of martial arts since childhood, I'll be looking forward to this one.
Also, I finished Mother (I loved it) and going to try to write up something tonight for it.
