Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Woodyanders A motley assortment of international terrorists plan to assassinate the Queen of England during her visit to Hong Kong. While this outlandish story probably sounded good on paper, it unfortunately loses a little something in its flawed execution: Shan-Hsi Ting's direction runs hot and cold throughout, with a rather sluggish pace and a crippling dearth of any real decent action in the first forty-five minutes. Fortunately, things kick into gear in the second half thanks to lots of fierce shoot-outs, startling outbursts of savage violence, and, naturally, several rough'n'ready kung-fu fights. The bad guys are a colorful bunch: George Lazenby as ruthless ringleader George, Yu Wang as cocky championship swimmer Jimmy, Judith Brown as the sultry'n'sunny Black Rose (her nude and sex scenes are sizzling hot!), and Bolo Yeung as hot-tempered brute Ram. Alas, Angela Mao isn't given much to do as a sweet Cambodian princess, but at least she gets to beat a few guys up and looks beautiful as ever. Ni Tien adds a good deal of spark as ditsy, yet helpful prostitute Jenny. Ting's blithely loopy script comes through with a neat twist in the last fifteen minutes. However, a nasty rape seems jarringly out of place. Ching-Chu Chen's lively marital score hits the funky chilling spot. A pretty fun flick.

George Clarke I have to say – I'm not a fan of this Golden Harvest classic!Don't get me wrong, it's watchable if you're a fan of the Wang Yu/Angela Mao flicks, but unfortunately this one suffers terribly from a severe lack of action.I bought in all my Wang Yu/Angela Mao/George Lazenby team up movies at the same time, and A Queens Ransom has to be the weakest of the bunch.Not such a bad thing considering what they have given us on top of this.But how clever of the studios to use Lazenby as an IRA man out to kill the Queen! You gotta love it! I mean, the troubles here (in Belfast) had only just kicked off, but yet these guys thought it would be interesting to put the political hatred into a kung fu movie.Could it possibly be the first kung fu movie about the Northern Irish troubles?I think so… And then came mine!

tonytse0814 A Queen's Ransom was offered 2 shows at HK Film Archive's Golden Harvest Cinema Matrix festival at Spring 2013. While the film is about average with other GH films, one thing outstanding is that it contains plenty of footages actually shot during Queen Elizabeth II's visit of Hong Kong at May 1975, including the arrival and departure of British Airways at Kai Tak Airport, official reception at Town Hall at Central, parades at Tsuen Wan and Nathan Road, dragon boat race at Aberdeen and the floating restaurant. These footages now become historical documents and are more interesting than the plot itself. Actually, HK film-makers adore Her Majesty too, so there is a plot twist at final 15 minutes that will keep the Queen unharmed. Unfortunately, the film does not have a chance of digital restoration, and the prints shown contains several traces, especially "straight lines" during the last 5-10 minutes. Where else to find a feature film that Queen Elizabeth II actually stars? (except documentary films) Quite interesting to see if Her Majesty know the existence of this film.

Joseph P. Ulibas A Queen's Ransom (1976) was a strange film that came out of Golden Harvest. This would be one of the first attempts by Rayomnd Chow to make international films. A QUEEN'S RANSOM features some of the company's brightest stars (Jimmy Wang Yu Angela Mao, Dean Shek, Sammo Hung, Bolo Yeung) and a big international star (George Lazenby).A group of international terrorists are trying to ransom the Hong Kong and English government. They won't kill the Queen if they receive a huge amount of ransom money. An exiled South Asian Princess (Angela Mao) is also thrown into the mix. She befriends a local kid (Dean Shek). The terrorists (George Lazenby, Jimmy Yu, Sammo Hung and Bolo Yeung) are under the watchful eye of the local H.K.P.D. What will happen next? Can the police stop these terrorists? Will the Queen be safe? Can the lonely Princess find true love? Is this movie filled with a lot of Kung-Fu and ultra violence? How rare is this movie? To find the answers to these questions you'll have to track down a copy of this impossible to find action film from Golden Harvest.A wild and entertaining film that aims to please (and it does). Will they ever re-release this movie on D.V.D.? Highly recommended.
