I watched this Taiwanese David Chiang vehicle under the title SIX DIRECTIONS BOXING. It's a film in which the Yuen clan are heavily featured, most notably in the presence of Simon Yuen playing yet another version of his old DRUNKEN MASTER character. He doesn't get a lot of screen time here and he's doubled extensively in his fight scenes, but he's still a delight when he's around.
Chiang is the real star of the show and looks a little odd with his shaven head and flat cap. He plays a policeman tackling a snake fist expert although a lot of the running time is taken up with the animal cast members, most notably a friendly chimpanzee and dog. Chiang hangs out with Nancy Yen a lot and occasionally fights the stock villain gangster types, and it all builds up to a climax in which Yueh Hua cameos as the friendly police commissioner come to help out. The film is strictly average but genre fans will want to see it anyway just for the talent involved.
