Wong Yat Lung, playing the kid, has some incredible acrobatic skills and nice moves; but he is pretty damn annoying, mostly due to the awful [English] dubbing by the most nerve-grating woman's voice I have ever heard. Yet, somehow I doubt it's much better in the Cantonese version, since they also dubbed child actors with female voice artists.

Yuen Siu Tin plays the same role as always, and is doubled for more or less everything but close-ups, as usual.

Eddie Ko is a good screen fighter but doesn't have much to do as the villain of the piece. Overall, it's not a bad film per se. The sleeping fist style is cool, but you can see a better display of it in BUDDHA ASSASSINATOR, courtesy of Hwang Jang Lee.

I would say that, more or less all of the problems I have with this film were fixed in the semi sequel, THUNDERING MANTIS. So I recommend that instead.
