- Alternate versionsThe American theatrical release, titled Duel of the Iron Fist, was heavily cut to avoid an "X" rating, mainly in the final fight. The Hong Kong DVD released by IVL, however, features the original uncut and uncensored print.

Featured review
AKA: The Cough of Death
The plot in The Duel is fairly complex, with non-stop double crosses and no one trusting anyone much at all by the end of it, but the brutal action scenes are frequent and quite exciting. This makes it an above average Shaw Brothers martial arts movie, but still a step or two below the studios' greatest efforts.
It's certainly a worthwhile watch for action fans, but part of me wishes it had either spent a bit more time making its story clearer, or just given an even bigger middle finger to the idea of story, cut 15 minutes of chit-chat from the film, and had 90 minutes of even more frequent, bloody fight scenes.
