Dynasty (1977)
4/10
A one-time 3D feature

Warning: Spoilers
DYNASTY is very much a nondescript period martial arts feature from Taiwan, starring a couple of notable performers in the forms of Flash Legs Tan and Bai Ying, but otherwise with little to make it stand out from the rest. The plot is a political one and sees a put-upon prince struggling to clear his name while fighting off numerous enemies trying to make him dead.

The one thing that makes this film stand out is that it was originally a 3D movie, hence fists and feet flying out at the screen at all times. I didn't see it in 3D, which of course negates the effect somewhat, and the resultant film is both poor quality and quite dull; despite the intricacies of the classic 'wronged man' plot, the very bad dubbing helps to make this a somewhat laughable experience.
