This film mixes equal parts action, kung-fu, black magic, quick reflexes and a 2000 year old dead sorcerer to make the quintessential fun 80s buddy-movie.

Panned upon its initial release, this cult classic was included in Empire magazine’s “500 Greatest Movies of All Time” list

“A big-budget, high-tech Hollywood action picture that takes all the cliches of kung fu, Fu Manchu and Charlie Chan, and does them right.” - Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Rated PG for violence and coarse language
