When I was young, I was a fan of Andy Lau, Stephen Chow, and Jet Li. I thought they were the big stars. I watched the works over and over again. Therefore, this classic movie starring Donnie Yen Yu Rongguang, with insufficient cast, doesn't have much impression. I heard that it was released in the United States later, and the box office was not bad. It seems that director Yuan Heping, screenwriter Tsui Hark, Huang Zhan and Yuan Xinyi also have wonderful performances. They are definitely classics in the classics. Don't miss it.
The story is simple. The pedantic iron monkey and doctor meets Huang Qiying and Huang Feihong, who are also pedantic, who come to buy medicine. They fight against corrupt officials and finally fight against Shaolin traitors.
The plot is old-fashioned, but this movie mainly focuses on the action design. Although Wei Ya hangs a lot and Kung Fu is a bit flamboyant, it's really good-looking. Huang Qiying and Huang Feihong's shadowless feet and umbrella play, Yu Rongguang's stick and iron whip, and Liuyunfeixiu, who served as the official official... They all look very good. The final decisive battle was to burn the stakes. It was very enjoyable to watch.
That Huang Feihong turned out to be a female antagonist, I really didn't see it, his eyes were awkward.
This is definitely a sign of Kung Fu movies.
