Summary: wierd movie
Comment: I bought this cause IMDB.com asid it has chen shan(chang shan) in it. I only know of like 8 freaking movies he is in so I have been on a mission the last 2 years to find all fo his movies, anyway...
This movie was decent at best. plenty of big shaw brothers stars and good ones tawainese srars too. It starts out with a kids family being killed so I think his uncle?, played by Chung Wa(Killer Clans) who has a huge price on his head. It is a lot of swordplay and some hand to hand. And the picture quality and filming job in general plays a large part in my problems with this movie. THERE IS LIKE 5 FREAKING NIGHT SCENES AND I COULD NOT SEE A DAM THING!. I really have to tell you to get this only if you have seen hundreds of movies better than this and need something to get you by after Tai chi class like me. Nothing like coming home and watchign a good flick but I need to at least habve a few beers before I watch this again. There is one sowrd scene that was TRUELY AWESOME , but only one or two more happen. And one other in the final of the final fight is really good. Also look out for beardy in the 2nd to last final fight. So MANY good stars but not worth watching except for the die hard like me. Casue i rather enjoyed it and will cetrtainly watch it once maybe twice more.
Picture quality isn't too bad and comes form groundzero's classic stock of vhs tapes. Widescreened, but poorly like all their stuff. sound is fine I guess if you turn it up really loud and the picture quality is more than watchable but the night scenes really ruin it. It is supposed to be a dark movie but I like to be able to see what is actually going on in a movie.
Bonus fight scenes include the best fight from Billy Chow's Kung fu Zombie, a crappy one from a movie called "monkey fist", a good scene from "Shaolin AGAINST Lama, starring lo rei and alan chui, I will definitely have to check that out. One from a godawful elton chong(that's his name) movie. A clip of some gweilos from "Snuff Bottle Connection", I just wish when they released this it would have been widescreed like it freaking is on the bonnus fight. Another typical groundzero screw up. If the quality was like this movie , Snuff Bottle probably would haev gotten a 4 or 5. Oh well, still a pretty good movie.

Summary: Old "kool" Kung Fu!!
Comment: Again I'm surprized no-one has yet to review this amazing classic. This particular flick set trends, for what we all now enjoy, in old school kung fu! This movie "One Man Army", has a tremendous amount of old school kung fu,,and is entertaining from the start to finish. I would be doing a gross dis-service to give details about this gem,,,you have to check it out!!! Rest assured you will not be dissapointed!!
