A MAN CALED TIGER (1973)

  Jimmy Wang Yu was a martial arts star that I always found fairly generic in the 2nd chapter of his career after he left the Shaw Brothers studios(despite being amused by his goofy-sounding name). Learning that Bruce Lee was originally planned to be the main attraction in this movie makes Wang Yu seem even worse in comparison to what could have been. The plot here is a bit more complex than your standard modern-day kung fu epic involving Jimmy becoming one of the members of a gang of mobsters in order to find out who is responsible for his dad's death. The fight scenes are decent enough but nothing really pops this  above the typical chopsockey fare of the day.
