Bio: I live in Znojmo, Czech Republic, Europe. I started watching kung fu movies in 1987 or 88 when they were showing Pride's Deadly Fury and Betrayal And Revenge in my town's theatre. I started collecting since 1999. Beside that I'm also interested in ornithology, art rock music (Yes, Genesis, King Crimson...) and I play drums.
Five Deadly Venoms (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I give it 3 stars only for the atmosphere, but I really don't know why most of the fans of kung fu flix give it such a high rating. It seems to be more like a detective movie than a kung fu classic. The kung fu styles are too fantasy based and there are not many fights in the film. I think that there are a lot of much better films with much more and much better kung fu in them. For example, "Invincible Shaolin" is a much better kung fu classic with Venoms.
The problem with "Five Deadly Venoms" is that the final fight is the best thing in the film. But I can never get to the final fight because when the finale comes, I'm already sleeping.

the films conception and story are excellent and original. sorry can't agree.
Wheels On Meals (product link) Martial Arts / Comedy As with "Twinkle Twinkle Lucky Stars", for example, a few more fights throughout the film would be better. But the finale is first class and that is why I love "Wheels On Meals". But I cannot give it 5 stars; the first half of the movie is a little boring. Just a little.
Half A Loaf Of Kung Fu (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure In my opinion this is one of the better films Jackie did with Lo Wei. It's a very funny film and the choreography--especially at the end--is quite creative.

Four star huh? That wasn't choreography at the end it was, just trying to understand what you saw that I didn't.
Warriors Two (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I like it even more than "Prodigal Son". The atmosphere, the fights, training scenes, everything is great. Even Dean Shek is very enjoyable in this one. This is my best-loved old school kung fu movie.
Drunken Master (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I think that all of the fans of Jackie or the fans of old school kung fu flix in general must have already seen this masterpiece a thousand times or more. If not, I don't know what to say.

Seeing the once is plenty enough. An overrated piece of junk.
