A good movie and a welcome addition to any collection. There have been better movies and there have been worse. One of the things that I really appreciate about this movie is that homegirl really looks like she is struggling to learn the moves. As anyone who has ever bothered to learn a martial art, even form training can be a bit like learning to walk all over again. Oh yeah, and watch out for the dude in the pimp hat.

Wing Chun at its best. I loved the training and fight scenes. A good movie for keeps. Highly recommended.

"Stranger From Shaolin" is a nice old school kung fu movie chronicling the adventures of Yim Wing Chun, as portrayed by the lovely Wong Hang-Sau. Shaw Brothers fans should recognize her as David Chiang's young wife in the classic "Shaolin Mantis".

Here we watch Wong Hang-Sau study kung fu at Shaolin Temple disguised as a young man, in order to avenge her father's death at the hands of the Manchus.

There are some good fight sequences and training sequences as we watch Wong hang-Sau create the Wing Chun fighting style. A later version of Yim Wing Chun is also portrayed by Michelle Yeoh in a great Yuen Woo Ping feature appropriately titled "Wing Chun". Is this film as good? No. It is, however, a good old school feature for lovers of seventies classic kung fu movies!

Great action movie. I was not familiar with the stars of this movie, but the story and fight sequences was very entertaining.

Very good film, starts out kinda slow, but when the training sequence kicks in watch out. Recommended for any old school kung fu fan.
