The Fearless Hyena

Summary: A Great Showcase of Jackie's Talents
Review: Much in the tradition of the great comics, such as Buster Keaton or Charlie Chaplin, this movie really shines on Jackie's comic genius. You can turn off the sound and the comic scenes would still be hilarious. However, this isn't just about comedy... the movie shows his range as an actor, from humor to grief, and his heroic final fight has some incredible work, as well as -- of course -- more humor. In all, it is probably one of his best films. It's a shame they used some dork to dub over his voice, but still that wouldn't have kept me from buying this film. If you want to appreciate Jackie Chan at his best... this is one of the better movies you could watch!

Summary: An old chan movie is better than anyone else's best movies
Review: One of Jackie's breakout movies with some actual comedy, rather than the Bruce Lee imitation he was forced into with the first 8 films or so. another viewer on this site says that they like drunken master 2 better. Drunken master 2 is probably his best kung-fu film, so this isn't saying much. It was also made in 1994, and it was NOT made by lo wei. I put this movie almost on par with drunken master one. If you're not a Jackie fan, yet, start with Mr. Nice Guy or Rumble in the Bronx; this one's for die hards only.

Summary: Shocked.
Review: That is really the only way to describe how I felt after watching this movie. It was THE BEST martial arts film I had ever seen. Other Chan greats: Drunken master I and II, Dragons Forever, Canton and Lady Rose, Police Story. Those are my favorites. Snake in the Eagles Shadow is pretty good as well. Check them out!

Summary: 3 stars for the movie, 0 for awful dvd!!
Review: the movie is pretty good and has some really good fighting and training scenes but the plot is corny and incredibly inconsistant. on first view, it seems just like another, drunken master, snake on the eagle's shadow, magnificent butcher or dance of the drunken mathis ripoff...well in fact it is, but not that great....is funny and pack with action, but nothing you haven't seen before. now, the dvd is plain awful!!! this is a columbia/try star release and it look horrible!!! the tranfer is directly from a betamax tape, not even vhs!!!! is grainy, dirty and washout....the dubbing is horrible and the subtitles is as phony as it gets!!!....no remaster at all, trystar did not put a penny on a new tranfer or colorcorrection or anything like it....it looks horrible!!!!! i can't believe this mayor film company didn't care and just wanted to get some money.....the movie is pretty entertaining but not the best...and the tranfer does it no justice!~~~ti bad this is the only copy avaliable

Rating:
Summary: great movie
Review: This is probably one of Jackie's better movies. It has some great comedy and some good fight scenes. The only down side is how weird it is to hear the voice of the person who dubbed over Jackie. All in all, this is a classic.
