The Legend of Drunken Master

Rating:
Summary: Best fight scene in any movie...
Review: This movie has quite possibly one of the best fight scenes in the history of martial arts movies. The only bad thing about this movie is that it will ruin all other fight scenes for you. Just look for the guy in the tan suit, you'll see...

Summary: One of the best martial arts movies ever made.
Review: This has the two great tastes that taste great together. Old school technique with modern, nonstop, heart pounding action. I have loved martial arts movies since I was a little kid, even those cheesy late night black belt theatre types, and have been watching Jackie Chan movies for about 11 years now, and I have to say, that this is one of my, if not my all time favorites. I even spent $80 on my copy of it because I didn't know about this place yet. Check it out.

Summary: On every level, a masterpeice.
Review: Wether it be Chan's fighting prowess, the wonderful cinematography, the social conflicts resulting from the British villains and their pillaging of Chinese national treasure or simply the story rooted deep in Chinese culture of the legendary Wong Fei Hung, this movie is the epitome of grandeur. It makes all other martial arts films pale in comparison. To not watch this film is a crime.

Summary: One of Jackie's best! A masterpiece of kung-fu flicks!
Review: I have seen TONS of Jackie Chan movies and this stands as my 2nd favorite Jackie Chan movie. The fights are the best I have ever seen,and the end final will not let you down. Jackie vs Ken Lo is a great fight scene and should be showcased as one of the best fight scenes ever filmed(or the best fight ever filmed)! The plot is fair but not terrible. This is a great film and is so good that in my opinion this is one of the greatest kung-fu films ever flimed or will ever be filmed! This movie isn't all just fighting though,it has some great comedy and there are some very funny moments in this films! Get this movie,it's sweet!

Summary: Words can do but little justice...
Review: Drunken Master II. This is hands down the very best kung fu/martial arts movie ever filmed. The action sequencing and choreography are so fast-paced and so drenched with unbelievable techniques that it is impossible to fully appreciate this movie with only a single viewing. I watched it four times the first day and spent most of that time standing with my arms in the air screaming "OH MY GOD!" This is no exaggeration. If you have even the slightest inkling toward action movies or martial arts, buy this movie. If you can appreciate the absolute mastery of physical ability, buy this movie. If you hate action movies and can't stand martial arts, buy this movie. It is singlehandedly responsible for making die-hard Jackie Chan fans out of nearly everyone I know. Seriously. END

Summary: Unbelieveable
Review: This is the finest Jackie Chan movie ever. He actually drinks industrial alcohol in the climatic scene. The fight scenes featureing drunken fist boxing are increadable. Who cares about plot when the action is this good. END

Summary: How many times is the sequel better than the original?
Review: In the case of Drunken Master 2, the answer is always, always, always. Jackie stars as chinese folk hero Wong Fei-hung, and for this movie Wong happens to be a believer in Drunken Monkey Boxing as THE style of kung-fu. Try to see this in a letterboxed format just to marvel at the choreography that goes into the fight and stunt scenes. For those of us that saw it on the big screen and are anxiously waiting its re-release, getting a subtitled, letterboxed version is the closest thing to heaven. The comedy as well as the stunts and fights are some of Chan's best. If this isn't one of Chan's three best of all time, I must be drunk. He surely hasn't made a finer movie since. END

Summary: The Greatest Kung Fu movie ever made!!
Review: I've seen plenty of Kung Fu movies in my day (including most of Jackie's stuff), but I must say that this is the most amazing movie I've ever seen. There are fights that take place in some of the strangest places (like under a train). The settings were just amazing. The final battle will forever remain in my memory as the best on screen fight scene ever!! You have to see this one!! END

Summary: Jackie Chan in his best fight scenes ever
Review: I have seen plenty of Jackie's movies, and I have to say that this is the best one I've seen so far. The fight scenes are truly amazingly choreographed, and the final showdown has to be seen to be believed. (He fights against his real life bodyguard, Ken Lo) END

Summary: Jackie Chan's finest...
Review: Only recently released here in the States for mass viewing on VHS, and originally titled, "Drunken Master 2," in Asia, this piece represents what could arguably be called Jackie Chan's finest example of both martial arts prowress and film-making expertise. The Legend of Drunken Master (US title) portrays the well-known hero, Wong Fei-Hong (also portrayed by Jet Li in the "Once Upon a Time in China" series, as well as many others) in an incredible period piece where Jackie reputedly had to practice and study intensively to develop his own more exciting and acrobatic form of drunken style Chinese gung-fu. Each fight scene is extensively choreographed and the storyline is both well acted and amusingly humorous. Anita Mui plays a comedic aunt role and you'll notice Lui Kang of Mortal Kombat fame having a good dose of screen time, only to have his fight scene minimized. According to the Jackie Chan crew, he was simply unable to match the rhythmic tempo required in Hong Kong style fight scenes and instead, Jackie opted to highlight the skills of his own personal body guard (with the lightning feet). The Legend of Drunken Master will appeal to anyone wanting a break from the wire work of the Matrix style fight scenes prevelent today. As w/all Jackie's work, nothing is sped up and no wires are used for those flying jumps. It's one of the top selling movies in Asia of all time. Isn't it about time to see it?
