4.0 out of 5 stars
pretty good!,
By ThePenguinKing (CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ol Dirty Kung Fu [VHS] (VHS Tape)
at first it seems like a very poorly choreographed kung fu movie, but once you get into to it, it does improve. filled with humor and action, one of the better kung fu movie's i've seen. where as bruce lee is very serious and true action, this is more light hearted with crazier fighting. recomend!

Noodles and a bamboo stick make good weapons for Cliff Lok,

This review is from: Ol Dirty Kung Fu [VHS] (VHS Tape)
OL DIRTY KUNG FU (1979) is the Wu Tang Collections retitled release of MAD, MAD KUNG FU, directed by Chien Yuet San and starring Cliff Lok, Simon Yuen, Chan Lung, and Lee Hoi San. Other reviews here make the mistake of confusing it with the completely different DIRTY KUNG FU (1978), which was directed by Lau Kar Wing and starred Wong Yue as a would-be bounty hunter, with Lau and Norman Chu as co-stars.This one deals with an aspiring kung fu champ, played by Cliff Lok, who wanders the countryside perfecting his own style of kung fu and helping people in trouble. (Hes also an accomplished noodle maker, which makes for some clever, comical scenes.) Because of his choice of weapon, he gets mistaken for the venerable champion known as Bamboo Stick and is even aided by the real Bamboo Sticks top student (Chan Lung), who is traveling incognito to avoid recognition by enemies of his master. Lee Hoi San plays the local town boss whose no-good son (Cheng Kang Yeh) was mortally wounded after Bamboo Stick had come to the aid of a village girl forced into marriage with the son. Lees desire for revenge soon involves all three protagonists, neither of whom is good enough on his own to defeat Lees "Iron Head" technique. Eventually the real Bamboo Stick (Simon Yuen) coaches Cliff and paves the way for a final, grueling battle with the town boss. The simple plot, which deftly mixes humor and suspense, offers an effective showcase for a series of well-staged fights showcasing the considerable talents of the four lead actors: the underrated Cliff Lok (KUNG FU GENIUS, DUEL OF THE SEVEN TIGERS); veteran Simon Yuen (the original DRUNKEN MASTER), who is frequently doubled by one of his sons (from the famed Yuen Clan); Chan Lung (also in KUNG FU GENIUS), in a rare heroic role; and perennial villain Lee Hoi San (aka Lee Hai Sheng, also in KUNG FU GENIUS). The tape quality of this Wu Tang Collection edition is not what it ought to be (see KUNG FU GENIUS), but it is a tad better than most of the releases in the Wu Tang lineup.

Good Movie,
By Dean Ira Cox (Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dirty Kung Fu [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Movie starring Wang Yue he plays a ... bounty hunter who always cons other bounty hunters to help him catch criminals, they usually do the fighting as he is not good at kung fu, and he is constantly getting ripped off, he then goes after a man who is a master criminal and extremely skilled at Martial Arts.He soon realizes that this man is going to be tough to catch as every man he gets to go with him to catch the criminal ends up dead. He then creates the eel style and a few tricks and goes after the bad guy.
