Martial arts Crime drama that see's Bruce Le against Korean gangsters

MY NAME CALLED BRUCE is a typically inane collaboration between Hong Kong and South Korea. It feels very much like one of those Godfrey Ho productions where a bunch of unfamiliar actors feature in various gangster/crime style films from a South Korean film and are interspersed with the 'name' stars from Hong Kong. The incredibly poor grammar of the title tells you everything you need to know about this slapdash production.Bruce Le is the hero of the piece, a man whose brother was killed by the boss of a crime syndicate. He teams up with an Interpol agent to bring the man down. Le does his best Bruce impersonation throughout while the highlight is another villain role for Chiang Tao, a former Shaw actor who appeared in all kinds of stuff in the late '70s. The action is nondescript and the poor production values work against the film; this is nothing the fan of low-grade chop-socky features hasn't seen before.

A stupid title for an equally stupid film. Filmed in Korea, this modern crime drama is complex & confusing. It's another of Bruce Le's movies for the company P.T. Insantra. Le plays a HK Interpol agent, but doesn't have that big a role until near the end when he battles Chiang Tao again. Christina Cheung steals the film (and she can keep it) as a pretty female detective—by that I mean she's both "pretty" and "female", not just "pretty female". Anyway, she fights well in this typically 1970s kung fu movie. However, this is a stupid, pointless film. The credits read: "Super Starring: Bruce Le. Written by Zackey Chan". There's some actor called "Mulo Chiba". Characters are dubbed with names such like "Nifty", "Chunky", "Tiger", "Baldy", and "Flasher".Anyway, it's the tale of a vengeful Interpol agent Tiger (Bruce Le) who's brother was killed, and how he eventually teams up lady cop sergeant Li (Christina Cheung). To the accompaniment of catchy disco tunes, they're thwarting the actions of Chiang Tao (AKA Kong To) and other antique smugglers— by that I mean they smuggle antiques; I'm not saying they're frightfully old.
