If so, does anyone know which one? That would be worth a look. Whether this movie's available on video or not, the chief reason to see it in a theater is the reason to see any movie in a theater: that's how it was meant to be seen. (Last year when I saw the restored version of "Touch of Evil" in a theater, I just about wanted to cry, it was so brilliant. Wish Orson could've lived to see it that way.) Chan taking on that army of hatchet men was just a joy to get immersed in & since I had the theater to myself, I could make all the out-loud comments I wanted; if I could've brought beer in with me it would've been perfect. One other thing about Chan I always liked is he lets his characters take a lot of abuse before they finally triumph. There's something to be said for humility in a screen persona. Steven Seagal, for one, could've used some.
