Boxer's Story (2004)
8/10
Not your typical Yuen Biao performance.
18 August 2005
If you are a Yuen Biao fan, this movie is worth the watch. It was a made for TV movie, so right away you will notice the production values are lower then usual. It kind of has a soap opera feel(minus the lame story's and dialogue).

Its a great little story about a washed up boxer, who also happens to be a dead beat father with a gambling problem. All that aside, he has a son who thinks the world of him, and never gives up hope that his father will once again be the best boxer in the world.

There is little to no action, and a complete lack of martial arts. But you know what, thats okay. The acting is also a hit and miss, But Yuen Biao and the young actor playing his son are excellent. And that's all that matters.

Its not perfect. But its different, and thats good.

So check it out!
