I don't know why this movie has such a low score, it's got good fighting scenes. Superkicker Hwang Jang Lee delivers great kicks and we get to see him use the bo (stick). The kung fu twins display great acrobatics. The movie also has humor, but it's not too corny. Just like drunken master, this movie features aaaaa looooot of fighting scenes and training sequences. Almost every scene acts as a setup to a fight or training scene (meaning that the talking in the movie is kept to a minimum). Just as any excellent kung fu movie should be.

One of the silliest kung fu movies
31 January 2004
This one goes in my top ten kung fu movies as one of the silliest. the weapon fighting scenes are excellent. As with any good kung fu movie, it contains a lot of over-top-characters:
* The king of the spear * the king of the sword * The exthortionist at the market (what a moustache!) * The king of the spears' sidekick, Potato (with the funky ummm.. hair) * The king of the swords sidekick, the humpback * And last but not least: Mr. Rockin', who has his own theme music.
All in all, an excellent and very funny martial arts movie.
