| Jimmy Wang Yu was "the man" in martial arts cinema up until someone named Bruce Lee came along. Wang Yu starred in dozens of martial arts epics from the mid-sixties through the 1990s. His most memorable creations were his one-armed fighters: "The One Armed Boxer" and "The One Armed Swordsman".
"Ma Su Chen" was released at the height of Wang Yu's popularity and boasts some of the best action sequences he ever filmed. Ma Su Chen (Nancy Yen) and her brother, Ma Yuen Chen--The Boxer From Shantung--(Wang Yu) fight the triads with all the skills and weapons they have at their disposal.
Wang Yu, a skilled weapons fighter, does his best fighting with axe in hand in this old school classic!
