HKFlix Says: 5 Stars
Some say this film is the most authentic martial arts movie ever made. We tend to agree. Oh, and by the way, there is a great story as well!
Avg. Rating:
  4.8 / 5 (based on 59 ratings). What did you think of it?
Plot:Leung Jan believes he's the best kung fu fighter in town, until he realizes that his rich father has paid his opponents to lose. He seeks out an instructor, but soon they both end up facing duels to the death with a kung fu-crazy young nobleman.
Overview:Yuen Biao is a spoiled martial artist-wannabe son whose wealthy father pays others to lose to Yueb during fights. When his father's scheme is revealed to him by a seasoned Peking Opera performer (Ying), Yuen vows to learn kung-fu for real. But first he has to persuade Lam to take him on as a pupil, then there's Lam's rival colleague (Hung) and a mysterious, fight-seeking challenger to contend with!
Cast: Yuen Biao  ||  Frankie Chan Fan-Kei  ||  Lam Ching-Ying  ||  Sammo Hung (Kam Bo)
