- The Master didn't compare to Wong Fei Hong(Once Upon A time in China) at all
- Once.. was infinatley better. All I can assume is Tsui Hark and Jet Li needed a
- film to introduce Li to American audiences--This only Hong Kong movie that I
- have seen that was 75% in English. IT obviously not shot on the same budget or
- scale as any of Hark's other films. Or maybe they wanted to visit LA and write
- offtheir trip as a business expense.
-
- I read in a Magazine that Jet Li is hiding out in mainland China because triad
- members killed his manager. I don't the details though.
