Her American flicks have been lackluster or worse, but under the direction of a top-notch fight choreographer (if I'm not mistaken, Biao Yuen himself was in charge) and editors who knew what they were doing, she looks wonderful. I'd nominate "RW" as having one of the two or three best chick fights that I've ever seen,
And Biao is way, way over the edge. The extended battles are fantastic (including one with a corpse used as a Jackie Chan-style prop), so I'll forgive him the dopey opening sequence.
This is GREAT HK noir! It really passes the "Joe Bob" test, if you know what I mean, and I know you do. Tranquil moments of sappiness lead directly to mayhem and nastiness. Always.

After 20 some odd years of watching HK action films, I have come to idolize the work of Jackie Chan, Yuen Biao and Sammo Hung. Since all three emerged from the Peking Opera, they have turned out some GREAT films. Keep in mind that HK action films are all about the ACTION, with little or no regard to plot, dubbing, etc...always have been, always will be (in my humble opinion). Yuen Biao turns in a solid performance as always, but if you want a Yuen Biao "showcase", it's got to be "Dragons Forever" (1987, similar story, except Jackie is the lawyer). The real show here is Karen Shepard and Cyndy Rothrock in a GREAT action sequence...every bit as good as Michelle Yeoh (Khan) vs. Zhang Ziyi in the opening fight sequence of Crouching Tiger, HD. Karen and Cyndy have made some mediocre films (Terminator Woman, Tiger Claws, China O'Brien, etc.) but NONE of those were even close to the performance turned in by both women in Righting Wrongs...a direct result of HK choreography. You will need to turn off your "believability" switch for some of it, but all in all, a fun time.
Despite having a thin plot, silly dubbing, disturbing brutality, and unnecessary humour, this film stands as an excellent showcase of Yuen Biao's talents. The plot deals with a lawyer becoming a vigilante while running afoul of Cynthia Rothrock. The action scenes are incredible. Yuen Biao and Cynthia Rothrock are placed in some set pieces that are among HK's finest. My favourite was Yuen Biao facing off against Melvin Wong. It's the kind of fight that makes one wonder why he wasn't as popular as Jackie Chan.
This movie kicks serious butt. Like the majority of Hong Kong flicks, the script is rushed and uneven, the acting is secondary, and the "plot" is occasionally laughable as it lurches awkwardly from set-piece to set-piece. But none of this matters -- Yuen Biao is completely insane, and brings a vitality to his action scenes that a "big star" like Jet Li can't hope to match. The chase and demolition derby in the parking garage is alone worth the price of admission. Cynthia Rothrock holds her own, for the most part, showing energy and interest that will fade rapidly in the coming years as she "graduates" to low-budget American fare. (But check out the obvious stuntman on the railing leap!) Great goofball fun. If it's playing at a Chinese festival, see it in the theatre with a crowd of like-minded fans.
action, fights, stunts all are very good and there s plenty of high quality, the scenario (script) will really amaze any watcher, it s totally different from the usual good guys win and bad guy looses, it s really incredible. a must see and trust me i have seen many many movies and i wont forget that one. yuen biao is as usual astonishing.

- TriviaKaren Shepard didn't want her character to die in her fight against Cynthia Rothrock as was planned, claiming it would be harmful to her career. To appease her, Corey Yuen pretended to film her running away after the fight, but later filmed her character's death via a stunt double.
- ErroresAfter leaving Cindy handcuffed to a balcony rail Hsia jumps off to the "grass" below. The ground bends under his weight.
- Versiones alternativasThe cuts to the UK VHS include a few seconds in the fight between Yuen Biao and Peter Cunningham in which Biao is hit onto a table and throws a plant. The second is an 11 seconds cut in the fight's end to remove two face kicks and a kick to the throat, of which remains a slow motion kick to the face.
