Three Evil Masters

Rating:
Summary: Classic Shaw Brothers
Review: "It's just you should be punished. I'm going to chop off your arms, so are you ready? Those word are spoken by Chen Kuan-tai as Chin as so begins probaly the best opening fight sequence in a Shaw Brother movie. Chin takes on all three of the titled villains in a restaurant. Watch closely as the knife expert does a back flip while throwing two knives. The Three Evils are lead by my favorite Shaw actor Wang Lung-wei. You would reconize him as Iron Robe in Kid With the Golden Arm and also from Five Deadly Venoms. In this movie he uses Panther style. In the movie the Three Evils wound Chin and he hides in a Kung-fu school where he is aided by Kao-chin. Chin repays Kao-chin by teaching him new techniques. I don't want to give away the whole movie, which I'm sure you enjoy. All the good Shaw elements are here excellent martial arts and choreography and the hero gets his revenge. I would like to explain why I gave this movie four stars. Like I said I love this movie, but I took one star away because of the quality of the DVD. I know the makers Ground Zero tried to the best they could by using the best original print they could find, but I can't give a perfect rating to am ovie that's neither wide screen nor remasterd. Unfortuantely many reviewers are quick to slap on a perfect rating because the movie is great and forget the quality of the DVD it's self. I just want people to know what they are buying. If you are a old school martial arts fan I encourage you to buy this because it's the best version of this good film at a reasonable price. I can only hope that one day someone takes the Shaw films seriously and gives a digital remasters with all the extras.

Summary: Excellent
Review: This is one of the lesser known Shaw Brothers titles but is no slouch. It ranks as one of their best. The opening credit sequence is also quite memorable. The fighting styles are quite unique and acrobatic. "Old school" yes but not the "superman" flying you see in today's films. Chen Kuan Tai is probably at his best here, next to his role in "Executioners From Shaolin". Wang Lung Wei is also superb, probably as amazing as his villain in "Instructors of Death". The hero's climactic battle(s) in the end are worth the price of the DVD alone. Most interesting killing move: received by Wang Lung Wei.
