"26.5 (uusintakatselu) Ehkäpä Woon elokuvista se kaikkein emotionaalisin. Toimintaleffana edelleen silkkaa timanttia, mutta toimii myös tarinana veljeydestä ja ahneudesta Vietnamin sodan runtelemassa yhteiskunnassa. Sinällään en mitään moitittavaa tästä keksi, kun kerran tämä on Woon Hong Kong -elokuvien aatelia, mutta tunnusmusiikki jäi syystä tai toisesta ärsyttämään."
