Summary: This movie is so funny it makes me remember to laugh
Review: This movie was incredibally smooth. The best part was when this one guy killed a yeti to avenge the death of his father.This here movie reminded me of the time when my good friend Mr Pinkus killed a man known as ned yeti(who was hairy like a beast), in order to avenge the death of his third cousin(once removed) Mr Golden.

Summary: Old School Classic
Review: This was one of Jackie's first crazy films. It is difficult to understand at times but man it can be funny. Jackie plays a wanderer who wants to be a kung fu master and slowly learns the ropes from variouse teachers and masters. A good classic to have. Arm the Homeless

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Funny Fu
Review: Your enjoyment of this film will probably depend on how many traditional martial arts films you've seen before, as it attempts to poke fun (pretty successfully) at the cliches of such films.

Chan plays a young man lacking any Kung Fu skills, but possessing highly developed chaos skills. Everywhere he goes he inadvertantly causes people to die and as the film progresses he builds up quite a list of enemies. After a chance encounter with an old beggar (who is naturally also a Kung Fu master) Jackie gets the chance to learn some Kung Fu, but only if he does an errand first.

The errand turns out to be protecting a transport of treasure (by the beggar's nephew) from bandits. Chan's bumbling results in the nephew getting near fatally injured so the exasperated beggar gives him a book of Kung Fu to learn from. Within about a day Chan is an accomplished martial artist. This is fortunate as all the bandits decide to attack at once and the inevitable mass fight at the end occurs.

Very funny in places (like when Chan, in mid-battle, rips the fake moustache of one of the cheesy bad guys) but offering more to the veteran martial arts fan than a newcomer.
