So is the first step of kung fu admitting that you have a problem? Unfortunately not a self-help video for martial arts cinema addicts (which is something I could probably use) this is just another crappy cheapo chopsockey flick. I think the "seven steps" thing may refer to our hero's fighting style which is sorta dance like. It's also like a not-quite-as-entertaining version of Jackie Chan's hi-jinks. There is one point where we are told a lady will be stripped of her clothes but prepare to be let down if you expect to see anything more than her bare neck. The plot is pretty standard except that instead of our main character's master getting killed he just gets his ass beat really bad before it's revenge time against the evil gang. To make the movie even more unappealing there's a part of the DVD I have of this where the audio changes from badly-dubbed English to Chinese. Luckily I did not pay for this disc so I do not feel ripped off in the least. Everyone else should maybe look elsewhere for their violent thrills.
