5.0 out of 5 stars As oil on water, "Descendant..." ascends to the top, March 15, 2001

This review is from: Descendants of Wing Chun (DVD)

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.

3.0 out of 5 stars Average 70's Kung-Fu flick, January 24, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Descendants of Wing Chun (DVD)

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.
