For me personally, this movie is one of the best Modern Martial Arts Flick of Hong Kong today! The kind that I've been waiting long to see!
As a long time fan of Donnie Yen (I'm an instant fan since I saw his first movie Drunken Tai- Chi, a loooong time ago), I believe he has finally get the chance to show his true talent, as the up-and-coming modern day Action Director. Donnie Yen has arrived!
The fight choreography is very unique and freshly thought, amazing at times. Combined with limited wire-work, stylized complicated movements (Donnie Yen's Specialty) and very complementary Computer Generated Special Effects, the fight scenes will blow your mind away. Not to mention the addition of the ground-shaking 5.1 Dolby Digital Sound Effects. You gotta see and experience it for yourself to know what I mean.
Story wise, LONG HU MEN (Dragon Tiger Gate) delivers true to it's comic book nature about the tale of Good vs Evil, told within the realm of Amazingly Imagined Hong Kong Triad/ Martial Underworld.
The Cinematography are quite unique too. In some scenes it felt like a very imaginary world, others like a very beautifully-painted old-day Hong Kong, yet in another it looks so realistic, true to the colour of the world today.
I may be biased so just go watch it for yourself.

A few recent movies have raised the bar for Hong Kong action cinema. Aside from the obvious "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" which introduced a moving plot and quality acting to the genre, "Ong Bak" raised the stakes for action by replacing gracefully balletic Wu Shu fights with acrobatic but brutal, hard-hitting action. Similarly, the Korean movie "Fighter in the Wind" also followed the hard hitting formula but added stylish camera-work to the mix. Luckily, "Dragon Tiger Gate" shows that Hong Kong kung fu cinema does have the skills to match these foreign usurpers.
The first thing that jumps out at the viewer is the rather contrived but undeniably stylish air of "cool" that surrounds the lead characters with their snappy streetwear and (quite amusing) emo haircuts. These guys are ass kicking metrosexuals! Luckily they ass-kick very well! Following the Ong Bak formula, the opening fight scene shows foot hitting face with real force and the fighting style replaces the graceful wu shu of traditional Hong Kong cinema with something that looks more like Japanese karate or one of the harder, external forms of kung fu - not much posing or flowery stances but lots of straight to the point slamming strikes.
So the film looks great and the fights are cool - how about the plotting? Crouching Tiger standard? Of course not! It's a standard formula about estranged brothers on different sides of the tracks coming back together to defeat evil. But this really isn't the kind of movie where the plotting makes much difference (and, to be honest, when Hong Kong cinema tries intricate plotting you usually get an over-long and unfollowable movie, so fair play to them for keeping it simple!) - what you really want is quality fighting and stylish visuals and this movie more than delivers. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to kung fu movie fans.

Oh-ho! This may be the best Kung-Fu movie I ever saw. The fighting scenes looked real. But I can say that the movie has a thin plot which is not very good (I can say). The only good thing is the fighting. Don't get me wrong, I do like the movie, it is just that I felt that the movie might need some improvement on the plot. It is about Tiger Wong, Dragon Wong and Turbo who believe in justice. They take possession of a gold plaque that holds one of the largest Asian criminal organisation, the heroes are now the target. They will have to fight the evil. The fighting scenes, I say it can be improved, as it just take a few minutes only. Longer fighting scenes would be more interesting. But overall, it still pass in my standard.
Oh... my... GOD! What can I say?
I just finished watching this film and was so utterly blown away by it that I just had to preach its awesomeness to all kung fu fans the world over.
There is a story to this one, but let's just skip that part and concentrate on what gets real kung fu fans itching with excitement: the action.
Not even ten minutes into this film and you know that you're in for a treat. By the time you're 53 minutes in, you'll be wetting your pants - it's just THAT GOOD.
Donnie Yen did the action choreography and it's some of the best you could ever hope to see, combining genuine martial arts skill with wire-work and a touch of computer effects for some of the most stunning fights ever to come out of Hong Kong... and that means a Hell of a lot if you know your grain.
For me, this film rates up there with other kung fu masterpieces such as Iron Monkey, Fist Of Legend and Tai Chi Master; fans will therefore be able to get an idea of just how masterful this flick is!
I understand that no film can ever be perfect, but I rated this one a "10", as such is the highest attainable merit.
Now, if you're any kind of action fan, go and watch this film - I promise that you won't be disappointed.

I had been looking forward to Dragon Tiger Gate since even before its Asian theatrical release. Same director (Wilson Yip) and action choreographer (Donnie Yen) as Sha Po Lang (aka Killzone on your videostore walls), and also once again co-starring Donnie Yen. It also stars Shawn Yue (who I don't know) and Nicholas Tse, who I've been assured many times by my friend Kim is a uber-hottie. This one was definitely just a straight-up action movie with visual effects to emphasize the coolness factor. I enjoy the occasional flashy action movie, and actually really got into this one, characters and all. Instead of saying much about plot, let's just say that 2 of the 3 leads are brothers who hadn't seen each other in a long time, and they team up with a new friend to kick some bad guy ass. Not for those of you who hate unrealistic action. Though I always enjoy seeing Donnie Yen kick a guy so hard he flies 20 feet back and through a wall.
Dragon Tiger Gate had nominations at this year's Hong Kong film awards for action choreography and visual effects.
