Summary: Great action flick but only tolerable dubbing and image...
Review: I really liked this film as Moon Lee shows some great fighting action throughout the movie. When she stretches during one training scene, you gotta pay attention. The bad part of this dvd is that the master used was already in bad shape. It really just looks like an old vhs copy that's been degrading over the years. And the dubbing...as usual, is quite bad. Can't anyone ever make a decent voice dub over?

Summary: A must see for any fan of HK Femme Fatale action
Review: Kickboxer's Tears showcases the talents of one of the greatest Hong Kong action actresses, Moon Lee. After her brother is killed in a kickboxing match, Moon seeks revenge against the killer (Billy Chow) only to have his mistress (Yukari Oshima) wanting Moon's blood! There are some serious, brutal, no-holds-barred fights that will delight any fan of Hong Kong cinema. If you're not a fan of Moon Lee and Yukari Oshima you will be after seeing this movie. Don't pass this one up. You might also want to check out another Moon and Yukari classic, "Angel Terminators 2."

Summary: TV screen saver
Review: Moon Lee is THE ONLY saving grace this film has.She does good acting,has good fighting skills-but against poor filming,and cardboard characters-it doesn't hold water.
Despite the film dates, it seems like an early seventies film and not a good one.
If you're looking for HK femme fatale fighting-Heroic Trio,Executioners,Wing Chun,or even Zero Woman (Japanese-but fits the genre).
"I must avenge my brothers death"-hmmm,never heard that line before....

Summary: Low budget but good fights
Review: No one is going to confuse this film with Titanic in terms of budget expences, but it does have another duel between Moon Lee and my personal favorite, Yukari Oshima. Essentially a revenge story, it boils down to a final confrontation between a crime boss and Moon Lee and friends, kicked off (no pun intended) between a brief but brutal fight between Moon Lee and Yukari Oshima. And unlike a lot of other female Hong Kong stars, Yukari Oshima is not a former dancer who translated her physical skills into on screen martial arts. Her martial arts skills come from real martial arts (Goju Ryu karate) which she started studying when she was 14. And while the skills of such greats as Michelle Yeoh, Moon Lee, and more recently Zhang Ziyi are impressive, you can see the difference of having had actual martial arts training when Oshima lets loose. She generates a combative force that just jumps out of the screen and even though she can't weigh more than 110 lbs soaking wet, theres no mistaking that she's a real fighter. Her fight scenes are always a pleasure to watch, not to mention a little scary (if you're skeptical, watch what she does to Richard Norton with a samurai sword in Millionaires Express, and see if you don't feel a little traumatized). If there was ever an elimination match between all of the women of H.K. cinema, I'd bet money that Yukari Oshima would be the last one standing, with the possible exception of Cynthia Rothrock. See Yukari Oshima in Midnight Angel and Top Fighters II as well.
