That is actually a really really old movie from HK (I guess you can tell that by the quality)... they just did the dialogue again to English and release it here...

Jackie Chan does that to a lot of his movies... Rumble in the Bronx, SuperCop, just to name a few...

Jet Li does that also... Black Mask is one example...

um... Try BruceLee. Jackie Chan took the idea of "Legend of Drunken Master" from Lee.

Lee had atleast the ideas in the works when he fell into his deep coma and died.

My understanding is that the movie was based on the character Wong Fei Hung. Wong Fei Hung is a character of Chinese folklore (he may have existed). That is to say it probably wasn't Bruce Lee's idea originally. Jet Li's most famous role is probably Wong Fei Hung in the Once Upon a Time in China series.

What FFM? Plot? Is that what you're talking about? Now who in their right mind goes to see a Chan movie for the plot? I couldn't care any less about where it came from or what it is! I want the Chan-tastic stunts :)

<< What's good about any Chan movies is that's it's impossible to spoil it by describing the scenes or telling the ending . . . >>



Yeah and they never get any worse the 2nd time around, because it's not like you didn't know everything that would happen the first time either :p

<< It's just that the plot is (very) secondary to the action scenes. >>



Sounds just like a porn movie. :p
