In memory of Qiu Jianguo, the eternal champion of Nanquan.

After this film, Jet Li began to sweep the country completely.

A very gorgeous lineup of action directors. Yuan Xiangren, Yuan Xinyi, Liu Jialiang. There are both Huang Feihong's successor Liu Jialiang and Yuan Xiangren. The kung fu does not follow the style of the shadowless feet in the later series, but has a lot of realism.

At the same time, Tsui Hark's talent is fully revealed. The success of Wong Fei-hung is indeed the result of Tsui Hark alone. His constant pursuit of martial arts effects has led to the glory of a new generation of martial arts action films. The effect of the final shot cut is amazing, and the ladder fight has become a classic.

As Xiong Xinxin's stand-in for Jet Li, the third episode began to have her own chance.

The film has a strong lineup, and the soundtrack and theme song have also influenced a generation.

Guan Zhilin, Yuan Bin, Zheng Zeshi, Zhang Xueyou, Ren Shiguan, Huang Ziyang, Qiu Jianguo, Liu Xun.

One of the details in the film is the shadow game between Aunt Thirteen and Huang Feihong, which runs through three episodes.

Finally, let's talk about the version. Is this 1080 Blu-ray a lie? The effect is really bad.
