Odd Couple is amazing!!! This film has some of the best martial arts and weapons choreography ever seen on the silver screen, and when you couple (yeah...I just did that) that with both Sammo Hung and Lau Kar-wing playing dual roles (each other's students no less), and you get a proper classic on your hands.
Odd Couple was one of my all-time favourites as a kid, and it's still way up there. My first copy of this was a VHS, which again was a copy of a copy of a…you know how that was like. I have actually no idea where that originally came from, but I know I enjoyed it immensely. Now I have the incredible Blu-ray release from Eureka Entertainment, and it looks stunning. One of my best buys so far this year!!!
