The Flying Fox of Snowy Mountain 1985

This is not my favorite Jin Yong novel but I thought it was a decent adaptation. I think this is the closest to the novel so by default is the best adaptation of "The Flying Fox of Snowy Mountain" and "Other Tales of the Flying Fox".

Ray Lui: He's really handsome and fits the character Hu Fei very well. He also did a good job as Hu Fei's father. 5*****

Elaine Chow: I love her in "The Duke of Mount Deer 1984" but I found her annoying in here. She's not really lovable in here. 4****

Mirta King: She's really lovable in here and a pretty good actress since she was completely different in "The Duke of Mount Deer 1984". 5*****

Margie Tsang: She's so cute in here although her role was extremely small. 4****

Jamie Chik: I consider her one of the prettiest actress during the 1980's since she was breathtaking in here. It's a pity that her character died too early. 5*****

Ray+Margie: They're cute together but I wished they were developed more although that's Jin Yong's fault. 4****

Ray+Elaine: I didn't really like them as a couple but they suited in terms of looks. 3***

Ray+Jamie: They were a pretty "hot" couple since they are both good-looking. 4****

Ray+Mirta: I felt sorry for Mirta but the friendship they shared was nice. 4****

Themesong by Lui Fong and Susanna Kwan: 3***

Rating: 4****
