Summary: Great Flick But probably only part 1
Review: This is a great film though yes there is probably more to this TV series. If you look at the special features like the "making of" part it does show some characters not in this installment. It also shows the 3 main characters training at a Shaolin Temple. You know the typical carrying water running errands thingy. So yes there is most likely more to the TV series which got me looking to see if the rest was being tooled for a DVD release I even went to the Tai Seng website but nothing yet. As far as this installment goes it is excellent. I would not have tried to search out for the rest of it if it was not. Good characters but the box description I agree is bad. But for 200 minutes worth of quality Kung Fu this can't be beat. Warning it does go into wire mode in some scences but as a whole the fight scenes are great even though a bit far fetched when it comes to some ariels and I liked all the characters. A great find for martial arts fans and especially for Donnie Yen fans. To me he is definately up there and is compareable to Jackie Chan, and Jet Li when it comes to fight scences also see Iron Monkey a true martial arts classic.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great movie/ TV show...however, missing parts...read on....
Review: This is considered a TV show turned movie. It's very well made, with great fight choreography (By Donnie Yen), casting, directing, and camera work. Some things to consider: I was confused about a line in the back of the CD case which said that Donnie's character was to train in the Shaolin Temple. Shaolin was not in the movie. Also there are many missing scenes or unanswered questions. The reviewer before me stated that there might be a "The Kung Fu Master 2" in the making. I sure hope so as I'd very disappointed (as I think others would too), if those questions weren't answered. Fantastic movie....please show the rest.

Summary: He is no kung fu master
Review: This movie was seriously the worst movie i have ever seen. Well not exactly i didn't see all of it because it was too lame so i turned it off. I love kung fu movie too so thats not the reason i have a collection of a bunch of new and old kung fu movies. And i like donnie Yen in Hero (jet li) and iron monkey, but in this movie he was unlikeable. The main thing that made this movie bad was the fighting it was bad it was chopy and way too excelerated. It was nothing like Once Upon a time in China, or Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon or Hero. It wasnt like Jackie chan style or Like Fists of legend it was just bad.

If you liked any of the other movie i named you wont like this one.
