I Will Finally Knock You Down, Dad! (1984)

Summary: Not too hot
Fell slightly off my expectations. Chin Siu Ho is a hot young master wasting his life gambling and mingling, untill local fabrics owner Phillip Ko Fei comes along and beats the crap out of him. Disappointed, his dad (Chen Kuan Tai) drives him away. He meets Bill Tong, a counterfeit shaolin monk who uses him in multiple ways. Somehow he trains himself and comes back to beat his dad. The finale is where the comedy is. There is not a whole lot of kung fu, and the choreography isn't too great. I mean, Chen Kuan Tai was better in Rendezvous and Opium; Ko Fei was better in The Loot and Deadly Challenger; Chin Siu Ho was better in Tai Chi Master & Fist of Legend; and Lily Li was better in just about anything she has been in.
