Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Average 70's Kung-Fu flick
Review: As far as I can tell, the only thing having to do with Wing-Chun is the title of the movie. It wasn't the worst Kung-Fu movie I've ever seen, but if you're looking for authentic Wing-Chun action, avoid this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: As oil on water, "Descendant..." ascends to the top
Review: As opposed to Michelle Yeoh's "Wing Chun", "The Descendant of Wing Chun" is a far more genuine (not to mention, wireless) display of the Wing Chun fighting style in all of its old-school glory (1978 release). It starts out with two fighters engaging in a "friendly" contest of martial skill and doesn't let up until the end credits. Great fights, authentic Wing Chun training techniques, and an interesting storyline make this a keeper. Note: for those of you that like Chinese dialogue and subtitles, this DVD has none, but the dub is very well done. The voice actor for Fatty Kwei is hilarious, english accent and all. Don't delay on this one, folks, it can't last at this almost absurd price. A definite gem.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Top Notch Kung-Fu
Review: Descendants of Wing Chun is kung fu at it's greatest glory. This movie depicts the wing chun fighting style to a T and it is extremely entertaining. The story line is pretty good for a kung fu flick and the fight scenes are many and fantastic. The first 20 minutes or so is a little dull, but hang in there, cuz it will pick up, I promise. This is a "must have" for any kung fu fan or fan of the wing chun fighting style.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Descendants of Wing Chun
Review: This is the absolute worst (martial arts or otherwise) film I've ever had the displeasure of watching. Any viewers should be reimbursed for their time wasted. I would recommend this film to no one. This "c" movie had no story line, terrible acting bad correography, and nothing of value to offer viewers. As a Wing Chun practitioner and avid martial arts movie goer, I would like to offer some quality films with skillful actors and great fight scenes. A few are: "Fist of Legend", "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon", "The Legend of the Drunken Master", "The Seven Samurai", and anything by Bruce (strictly for the quality of Bruce's technique and forgiving the cheesiness of the films). Have fun!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good but not great
Review: Well this one is a bit weird, it sees to have an identity crisis. Somehow the humour and seriousness just doesn't quite match, just a close inspection of the cover tells all, yes that's an orange in the monks hand. The fight scenes are ok, but nothing great.
