kungfu twins, 19 July 2001
Author: Cenk (jank123@mailcity.com) from berlin

The movie is about two different brothers (twins) who were seperated at birth when their parents were killed. After years they meet themselves in Hong Kong. And they fight together against the mafia. The movie is TOO absurd but surprisingly its very entertaining. The fighting scenes are great. Jean Claude plays as chad and alex in double role. Thats perhaps the most interesting part of the movie.
