The Young Master (1980)
Reviewed by: Inner Strength on 2002-01-13
Summary: CLASSIC
In my opinion, this is one of Jackies best, as far as kung fu at least anyway. 100 times better than Dragon Lord which was made at the same time, and very close to as good as Drunken Master. The beginning scenes of the Lion Dancing does make it seem like this is going to disapoint, because it lasts a while. BUT, after this is just gets better and better. A real classic in my eyes, even the English dubbed version is quite enjoyable, which is how I first watched it 10 years ago I think it was. But you can pick up the original Chinese version on DVD for less than $10.

WATCH IT, BUY IT!
