Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Black Panther Warriors is a 1993 Hong Kong action movie directed by Clarence Fok (Naked Killer), envisioned as a modern-day Wuxia with an Ensemble Cast including Alan Tang "The Student Prince" (Flaming Brothers), 90s wuxia queen Brigitte Lin (The Bride With White Hair), Simon Yam (Full Contact) and Tony Leung Ka-fai.Black Cougar (Tang) is a swordsman and expert martial artist, once a student of the Cougar order, but have since left his order after failing to save his mentor from being killed. Now a master thief, leading a band of experts and professional badasses, Cougar is recruited to steal a valuable silver box whose contents unveils a shocking revelation of his past. With a powerful enemy long assumed to be dead returning, Cougar and his team, including magician and Death Dealer Blackjack (Simon Yam), military ex-commando and Gun Nut Mang-po Fai (Tony Leung), Cougar's protege, lover and Distaff Counterpart Ching-ching (Brigitte Lin) and dart-expert Madame Rose (Carrie Ng) are in for the battle of their lives.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Loaded with enough action scenes which are as improbable as they are bizarre, overblown special effects, unexplained martial arts techniques, comic book acrobatics, hyper-speed brawling, more than 200 onscreen deaths and logic-defying moments and stunts, the entire movie feel like an anime film coming to life, though its not without the usual "mou lei tao" comedy usually seen in Hong Kong films popular at its time. | |

The Black Panther Warriors / int_118bba4 | comment |
Non-Indicative Title: Despite the title, none of the characters have Animal Motifs after the Panther. The protagonist is themed after a Cougar, while the Big Bad is based on a Wolf. | |

Improvised Zipline | |
The Black Panther Warriors / int_14aa871a | comment |
Improvised Zipline: Cougar, during the infiltration onto enemy offices, sneaks into the penthouse using a wire cable he launched from an adjacent building. In the final battle, several of Wolf’s mooks descends from their transport helicopter on ziplines, trying to swarm into the vault en masse. Mang-po, guarding the entrance, simply whips out progressively larger guns and mows down those ziplining mooks by the dozens. | |

The Black Panther Warriors / int_43c77dd9 | comment |
Hellish Copter: In the final battle, when Mang-po easily takes out the first few waves of mooks rushing at the vault's entrance, Chu immediately sics a helicopter which drops henchmen on ziplines. Mang-po simply kills off all the invading mooks and whips out a rocket launcher to blow the helicopter out of the air. | |

The Black Panther Warriors / int_7374ab13 | comment |
Once More, with Clarity!: In the flashback scene, Black Cougar and Bloody Wolf is fending off assassins trying to kill all three of them. Cougar decides to buy time for Wolf and his master to escape, but as he emerge from the shootout alive, he turns around only to find his master dead and Wolf nowhere in sight. Later into the movie, the truth is revealed with a second flashback; it turns out while Cougar is fending off assassins, Wolf instead betrays and kills Cougar's master and flees, having orchestrated the entire attack. | |

Blinded by the Light: In their final, one-on-one duel, Bloody Wolf manage to temporarily gain the upper hand against Black Cougar, by slashing his sword on the floor, resulting in a massive flashy spark akin to a flash bang that catches Cougar unaware. However, Cougar learned to fight blindfolded beforehand, and quickly gets over his brief disadvantage. | |

Good Smoking, Evil Smoking: While averted for Cougar, most of the characters in the movie does in fact smoke, heroes or villains alike. The first scene where Mang-po, Blackjack and Madam Rose are waiting for Cougar, ALL three of them are smoking cigarettes, and are actually competing against each other to see how long their cigar will burn without snapping. | |
