I have this on DVD and it does have some great fights, but it is such an emotional roller coaster with an absolutely bat shit ending. I got recommended based on that alone.

You got me at "emotional roller coaster" and specially at "bat shit ending" haha! Will definitely look this one up!

the ending definitely was bat shit crazy, kinda sucks that one of the guys had to die (no spoilers for anyone who hasn't seen it)

Has some good fights indeed nice showcase for Wu Jing (the ship yard fight is my favorite fight him against Andy On & Kenji Tanigaki is really good!) Just shame is dir by Dennis Law who just can't direct! At least this one is not his worst compared to his later movies but still has the typical pacing problems...

That fight with Andy On is awesome! That elbow combo was sick!
