Summary: Old "skool" Kung Fu!!
Comment: Snake Crane Secret is low on my top 10 best kung fu flick/ kickers but is a 5 star in my book. This particular movie has a sentimental value to me. This flick was my first kung fu movie experience as a child, 12 years old,,I was blown away by it,,and I never forgotton the performace of Tan Tao Liang. It was this movie that got me hooked on old School kung fu movies period,,,therefore, with that being said no matter how bad most online previewers feel about it,,,,I THINK IT'S THE BEST KUNG FU MOVEIE EVER MADE!!

Summary: actually I give it a 3.5
Comment: Cheese at its fines. Wu Ma truly puts together a classic. It's not like he is a great director cause he's pretty bad, but this just shows what Godfrey Ho could have done if he spent more than 1 day on his movies. If you wanna see Dean Shek play a badass then watch this movie. Shek doen's look to badass but he almost does. Overall I have to say I love this movie, and the version I have is pretty bad quality so I can't imagine this being any worse. (...)

Summary: This Film Is Actually Not Too Bad.
Comment: I don't have this particular version of the film, so I can't speak for the quality of this DVD. I have it in one of those Brentwood sets. It looks a broadcast version, because the film fades out and then comes back at the same spot in what look like commercial breaks.
Anywho, I thought this film wasn't too bad. The storyline was okay. The first half of the film features slow moving fight scenes, but by the second half, the fighting has sped up considerably. The people (specifically, Meng Fei and Dorian Tan) aren't throwing punches at each other like they're trying NOT to hurt them. While there isn't anything spectacular about the fight coreography, it moves at a good pace and is still fun to watch. Perhaps if the director undercranked it slightly, the fight scenes would appear to move at an even more enjoyable pace.
So, I'm giving 4 stars to this film because I was expecting it to be really bad and feature really slow fighting, but it turned out to be pretty good instead.
