5/10
A good idea, but poorly executed
21 August 2020
Blood Money is a spaghetti western/Kung Fu buddy comedy. While this is far from the best movie, it is the only chance to see genre icons Lee Van Cleef and Lo Lieh in the same movie. As a big fan of both westerns and Kung Fu movies, for me this should be the best movie ever. Unfortunately for me it isn't, the comedy isn't funny, the fight choreography sucks and Lo Lieh and Lee Van Cleef don't have much onscreen chemistry. The film looks really choppy with bad cinematography and lousy editing to boot. The Shaw Bros/Hammer crossover film The Legend Of The 7 Vampires is really good and fun in my opinion. This however is not very good. I did like it, when I first saw this, but in rewatching this I had a much harder time getting into this. For cheapish, exploitation trash like this, Blood Money could be much worst. Blood Money is still somewhat watchable, but is far from being a great as this could have been.
