THE MASTER (1980)
This is one of those kung fu films that throws a bit of comedy in along with it's more serious fighting and killing scenes which leaves it with a weird tone throughout. There's also a lot of acrobatics going on in the martial arts fights which looks extra unrealistic. It does have some nice looking locations and is shot really well like most of the Shaw Brothers more classic kung fu stuff. The plot is pretty standard and involves an old master who trains a young fellow and then gets himself killed letting the "you killed my master, now I must get my revenge"-thing play out without anything spectacular happening. There are three main bad guys and one guy uses a knife in his pony-tail which is kinda unique and probably the most memorable thing about this flick. It doesn't help that this has just about the most generic title possible. AKA 3 EVIL MASTERS
