That honesty is so damn refreshing. She tells it like it is. Also a testament to the flaws our friends can have. Despite having beliefs that can even teeter on degrees of unethical ideologies, she still says they're friends. A good example of how you should be honest, but doesn't mean you have to make some kind of villain out of a person.

Yes, Hong Kong action movie industry is very tough. Due to tight schedule and money spent, often they don't have time to practice and choreograph the fights, they were built on the set and filmed as they go trying stuff out. Unlike Western films where You have like half a year to plan and get everything right, films in Hong Kong back in the 80s 90s usually need to finish filming within 1~2 months. Some even less time if low budget films.
