Customer Rating:
Summary: Absolute Kung-Fu P0rn!
Comment: This flick never stops for a breath between beat-downs. Even though it is low-budget, the choreography of fight scenes is insane.
Customer Rating:
Summary: better than drunken master?
Comment: I thought that this movie was slightly better. If Jackie or some other good acrobat could have played the role of Foggy in this movie it definitely would have gotten 5 stars.
WARNING:the version I have is the Blackbelt theater version and it also comes with From China With Death, which really sucked. The picture quality on these movies is truly some of the worst that I have ever seen. It is watchable if you are a fan of EVERYBODY in this movie, Rubber Legs CAN'T be seen if there is a white backround.

Summary: Unwatchable
Comment: I bought this movie because I'm a huge fan of both Simon Yuen and Hwang Jang Lee and..I was horribly dissapointed.
Not because of the quality of the movie or the action, but because I couldn't watch it. This DVD features a code called 'Insta-Action' which cheerfully allows you to jump right to the action scenes..and you can't turn it off so far as I've been able to determine. So what you get is about ten minutes of movie..fight..fight..fight..fight..end of movie.
Videoasia should be ashamed of themselves. If you're a fan of Simon or Hwang, try and get the VHS version at your local Chinatown. Don't waste your money on this deplorable DVD.

Summary: best movie ever
Comment: the film quality of this dvd is not to good, but the kung fu is so great that it doesnt matter. i have seen many many kung fu movies but this one tops them all, and my kung fu brothers agree.

Summary: Yuen Woo Ping and Sam the Seed
Comment: When you see a Yuen Woo Ping film, you can pretty much gaurantee that it will be entertaining. At least the fight scenes are. I actually have owned this film for about 6 years now on VHS, and the movie is good, but it can get corney at times (like the singing in the bank?!.) But all in all a pretty decient martial arts film. Sam the Seed plays the usual character, like in Drunkin Master and does a good job, even though it's noticalble that he is not doing the more difficult moves. Watch for when Sam the Seed and Crazy Legs are drinking tea together! To me, It was the highlight of the film. Very good choreography, thanks to Woo Ping, who is one of the most talented martial arts choreographer and director. The firmiliarness of the characters, the cornyness, the slow martial arts sequences, and the unfunny comedy make it an OK martial arts film. Apart from the tea drinking sequence, the film is nothing spectacular.
