Summary: 4 stars for the movie, 5 for the dvd
Comment: DVD gets a 5 star rating because it is perfectly widescreened with good sound and one of the best dub jobs ever. Movie gets a 4/5.

Dorian Tan plays the same role he does in a lot of movies and is sent to solve a crime. What makes this movie unique is the 3 people he brings along with him to solve the case. Jack Long, Meng Fei, and Blacky Ko come along and this is one of the best kung fu comedies of all time. Jack Long is nicknamed Nancy Boy, Meng Fei is the ladies man, Blacky Ko is the gambler, and Dorian Tan plays it straightfaced liek always but gets in some good comedy. The main villian is not the best fighter but everything that happens before the final fight makes this one of the most enjoyable movies ever.

Not the best fights but still good. You can't beat the star power in this movie. All types of crazy stuff going on in this and it only adds to the great corny dialogue.

Summary: Fun Kung-Fu Adventure!
Comment: The story in this one follows a group of four young Tiger Village citizens, who are kung-fu experts. They are commissioned to guard an ambassador from asassination when he arrives in town.

Most of the film sets up the relationship between the young fighters and the ambassador's security man, as well as the various personality traits of the men (one is always making bets about the outcome of a given situation, another is a ladies man, and another likes to comb his hair and look cool, etc.). They work together to root out the hidden asassins lurking in the neighborhood before the ambassador comes to town. To make matters worse, the bad guys seem to know all of their plans and precautions, and the heroes suspect that there is a spy in their midst.

There is some early wire work on display in some of the fights, and Bionic Man-style leaps (in other words, the actor jumps down from a wall or tree limb during filming, and then they ran the film backwards to make it look like he jumped up there using kung-fu power). The dubbing is pretty good, and best of all, the film is shown in widescreen.

There's a lot of comedy, but this is basically a drama, so naturally there a few nasty turns of events. Likable cast, fight scenes, and action all around. Whether you're a serious kung-fu fan or just like to MST3k your way through kung-fu films, I think you'll enjoy this one.
