Duel to the Death - 生死決



I caught Duel to the Death via Netflix a while back.

The movie is about Chinese vs. Japanese martial arts. A duel to the death every 10 years to see who's countries martial arts is supreme. China sends one and Japan sends one to the duel site. The site is maintained by the winner of the first duel over a century ago. The family now has no competitors and serves as host. Some challenges arise for the two contestants before they ultimately duel. The ending is quite something.

I didn't enjoy the film much and fell asleep a few times. Having to rewind and try to remember what I lasted watched made the movie experience even worst. HK produces a lot of Kung Fu movies and this is not one I would look to watch again or recommend.
