    One of the best movies I have seen so far
    This is 1 of the best movies I have seen so far!

    Its always nice to see david chiang and ti lung playing togheter with eachother !

    Like some guy explained before , you can learn from this movie , because although you have a handicap you can still be improving your skillz.

    This story is well made , like mentioned before a guy Lei Li losing his arm to a corrupt "held" Lung. After being retired for a year a brother Feng come to his place where he acts like a bartender. While he was demolished by some people from the Tiger Fort , Feng teached Lei Li to appreciate himself again. Then one day Feng is losing his battle in the Tiger Fort against Lung , Lung used the same trick he used to do to Lei Li to with his sticks. After that Lei Li sworn revenge and the ending is amazing ! He defeats a whole squad of fighters from the Tiger Fort! And once again he meets Lung , the man that made him retire for a year. A very nice battle at the end !

    Anyway just watch the movie then you know what I mean ! :-)

    Greetz!
