Summary: Amazing Display of Kicking
This Lee Tso-Nam film is a definitely look at the different styles of kicking. Tan Tao-Liang shines as Tan Hai-Chi, a Northern kicking expert who kills his cheating opponent only for the deceased's ground kicking brother Pan Pak (Peng Kang) opts to get revenge. Meanwhile, Tan is asked by good friend Master Mo (Sun Jung-Chi) to train spoiled brat Phoenix (Hsia Kwan-Li) in his style of kicking.

As always, Tan Tao-Liang is a delight to watch as he unleashes his graceful kicking skill to the max, showcasing his flexibility and sheer leg hopping style. Hsia Kwan-Li is graceful as well, displaying her flexibility as she has a mean back kick as well as an axe kick that can rival that of John Liu.

The opening sequence alone is worth the price of admission as Tan, Hsia, Peng Kang, Chin Lung, and Sun Jung-Chi all showcase their impressive leg techniques.

The fight scenes, choreographed by Peng, Sun, and Wong Yiu are definitely worth seeing as well as the comic relief of Chin who tries anything to get Tan out of Phoenix's house and fails miserably each time.
