        Eagle and mantis combine for good fights and heavy drama about loyalty
        The movie opens with demonstrations and narration. At the kung fu school the guys are clowning around. Suddenly, White Eyebrows and gang return for revenge against the master. They mortally wound him. Some of the students go for hasty revenge. Before he dies the master makes Don Wong the new head of the school, not the senior student. There is also a book with three new techniques. Big brother (Chi Kuan-Chun) gets angry drunk, is cast out, and allies with the enemy. He is forced to prove his loyalty by killing his former brothers.

        Then there is a twist that I will not mention. Sure, a movie this old certainly has no secrets. I watched it once before I re-watched it for this review and I felt that knowing the plot twist had me scrutinizing each scene for consistency and sort of ruined it.

        Nevertheless I rate it about average for very good fight scenes and drama that never had a dull moment from start to finish.
