I saw this movie dubbed. The video box called it a cult film and one of the best martial arts films ever. I thought it was a very standard fair with kungfu school rivals, trampoline jumps, handicapped heros and "two-beat" choreography.

From what I heard this was one of the first non-wuxia kungfu movies, ie a chopsocky movie, or one of the first chopsocky movies to make it internationally known anyways. I wasn't that impressed. The choreography was slow and sloppy. Was not very graceful to watch. I could not tell whether or not the acting was good since it was badly dubbed. The music was obnoxious. The plot was solid--it was standard but it had its twists and turns.

It has been two years since my last viewing of this film. Maybe I'll rent it again tomorrow to make sure that I have not missed some really impressive scenes. But before then, my opinion is that it's a monumental film--not the best film (not by far it ain't) but it's generally responsible for your late night TV screenings since the 70's.
