Eastern Condors is a 1987 Hong Kong action war film directed by and starring Sammo Hung. It is one of the most celebrated action films of its decade, with Sammo and his stunt team staging fights that are as dangerous as anything Hong Kong produced at the time.
The cast is a who's who: Yuen Biao, Joyce Godenzi, Yuen Wah, Lam Ching-ying, Yasuaki Kurata and Dick Wei, plus Yuen Woo-ping and Corey Yuen. Barry Wong wrote the screenplay.
A group of Chinese prisoners held in the United States is offered pardons in return for a covert mission: go deep into Vietnam and destroy a secret store of missiles left behind when American forces withdrew. Led by an officer played by Sammo Hung, the team picks up local allies, runs into enemy patrols and finds that very few of them are expected to come home.
Is it suitable for younger viewers? No. The BBFC rated it 18 for strong bloody violence.
When was it released? It opened in Hong Kong cinemas in July 1987.
For Sammo and Yuen Biao in lighter mode, try Wheels on Meals (1984) DVD. For earlier Sammo Hung, see The Victim (1980) DVD.
