Superfighter 2: Directed by Chuan Chen. With Jackie Chan, Dean Shek, James Tien, Austin Wai. A pair of evil kung-fu artists, Heaven and Earth, are slaughtering the entire Yin-Yang brotherhood. The movie opens with two members of the brotherhood and their two male children being chased by Heaven, Earth, and miscellaneous bad guys. The two members get away separately with their children. Twenty years later, we see Chan Lung (Jackie Chan) as he hunts frogs and snakes and keeps them in his pants. You learn he was one of the boys. The other is a lazy man who uses windmill-driven levers to deliver things to and from bedside, even a chamberpot and breakfast. Eventually, their respective paternal figures are killed, and they are forced to fight Heaven and Earth.

“This was a somewhat disappointing companion to the original Fearless Hyena made in 1979. There are too many plot lines that finally come together at the end in the movieu0026#39;s only martial arts action. I must say that this half hour scene almost makes up for the rest of the movie, but I find myself demanding more of Jackie Chan. The same characters from the first movie are back, but in a totally unrelated story and in different roles. This is still a good enough movie, but given the quality of its namesake I expected a little more out of it.”
