User Reviews

23 February 1999 | by (Japan) – See all my reviews

This is another Jackie's good Kung-Fu film (without comedy plot) in his 70's. If you like Jackie Chan and Kung-Fu movies, you will definitely enjoy this one. If you are worrying about which ones to see from his 70's films, you must be careful .He appeared in so many titles in 70's so naturally there're many garbage as well. But this one also will be for ya!
