This Jackie Chan kung fu flick starts out with the most basic plot of "you killed my master and now I must seek revenge" but then throws a couple of curveballs our way to spice things up. I think my favorite martial arts films are the ones where characters are not strictly good or bad but many shades of grey in-between and that certainly applies here. Even Jackie is not likable throughout the whole film but you do understand his motives making this one stand out from more typical fare. AKA IN EAGLE DRAGON FIST and DRAGON HERO
There are a few different cuts of this out there ranging in runtimes from 76 to 89 to 96 minutes in length.
