2.0 out of 5 stars average movie with poor wing chun, July 5, 2001

By

This review is from: Descendants of Wing Chun [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This movie is a strange one.. first of all, the dubbing... This is classic 70s kung fu action, that is relatively slow, step by step choreography and voices straight out of .... The annoying whining of some of these characters will really get to you after a while. More so, the reason i bought this movie is because it claims to be showing off wing chun. Now compared to the excellent Prodigal Son, Descendant of wing chun has nothing to show for. The wing chun on display is sloppy and poorly coordinated, a lot of the positions are plain wrong and the overall style is blurred by lots of "fancying-up" and unnecessary movements. While in The Prodigal Son the wing chun principles are told of with pride and accuracy, showing off the style as what it is, a brutal, to the point demonstration of force that can throw off any martial artist, Descendant... demonstrates only the "fancy" stuff and puts emphasis on visually unimpressive (and in this case poorly executed) techniques such as the one inch punch.

Overall, an average 70s style kung fu flick with poor wing chun. Not worth the money. Get prodigal son or instruction vids instead.

This review is from: Descendants of Wing Chun [VHS] (VHS Tape)

A good movie but not a good showing of the Wing Chun style of Kung Fu. Also,the guy on the box is rarely in the movie. The plot is about a Wing Chun master who helped put away a criminal, but sometime later the criminal gets out and along with a fellow kung fu friend comes looking for revenge. Now,the master and his students have to fight for their lives.

Great action, deep plot that sometimes may seem a little groggy, but overall a good film. Good quality film, that i truly recommend to anyone who enjoys the genre of martial arts.
