Summary: one hell of a fighting movie, not a good story or nothing, but some sick ass fights
Comment: I am talking there is a monk training who jumps on to his back AS HARD AS HE CAN ON THE DIRT GROUND AND SPRING BACK UP EVERY TIME HIGHER AND HIGHER. And I;m not talking abou using his hands, he does THE hardest hits and springs on his back I have ever. Unfortunately the movie is not a good one even for kung fu terms. And that guy I was just talking about, that's like his only part. But there is a monk named yu nan I think and this guy can really fight. He is small and has a single expression he shows on his face. I don't have any idea who this guy is but I would think he was in at least a couple other mainland films.
OH YEAH I FORGOT TO TELL YOU IRON MONKEY IS IN THIS. This must be his first movie and his fighting skills aren't polished by any means. He has always been an underused actor as the years have progressed but man do they show him off in this one. Now his fights are unpolished, but like jet in shaolin temple, he is a serious athlete. Meaining that even a guy like allen iverson would have respect for him. And speaking of allen, EVERYONE in this movie had ot have broken a couple of bones. The final kick of the movie by yu nan and iron monkey is spectacular but still doesn't look worth the pain the actors went through. Then iron monkey takes a shot at least twice as hard in the next shot and that was all by himself. I seriously thought he must have died in real life. And the hordst stunts are the sheeit. Dangerous stuff always going on in this movie, no story, but the fights are plentiful and VERY good. VERY VERY GOOOOODOOD.
The Xenon version is nicely widescreened, but suffers from a very worn out and faded picture. I like the cantonese track but the subs are very difficult to read and decipher when you can read them. But don't worry, it's iron monkey beating everyone's ass.

Summary: Good Stuff.
Comment: This is a great kung-fu flick. Plenty of action, decent storyline, and fun fight scenes. If the old kung-fu movies are somthing you like, you'll be entertained by this one.
What sets this movie apart from many other movies of this genre are the fantastic views of the Chinese countryside. Seriously, some of the settings for the action of this film are just amazing.
No, it isn't as good as the first movie with Gordon Liu, but how many martial arts movies are? Buy this movie already.

Summary: Fun flick
Comment: OK, not the best in the world, but worth the purchase. Tons of silly dialogue, corny intros to the main characters (wait'll you see the stunt 'horse riding' antics), but the fight scenes are strong; extended in length, and choreographed very well. The finale is gritty, but without a lot of excessive melodrama. All in all, pretty good, but only when you have the extra bucks.
