Gettin' It In
After going through Criterion’s Once Upon A Time In China Blu-ray box set series I forgot how good Jet Li’s stunt double/ Club Foot was in those flicks so I thought I’d give the rarely seen Peter Hyam’s flick ‘The Musketeer’ a watch because he was also the action director. You can see from the clip the choreography is clearly inspired by the work he did with Tsui Hark in the OUATIC series, the various swordfights are actually pretty inventive. The film itself is pretty garbage (Tim Roth plays another great villain) but it’s those HK inspired action sequences being the saving grace.
