“It opens with various demonstrations. The narrator explains, with helpful text, about leg fighting. Dorian Tan is stabbed in the knee but still defeats his ruthless challenger. White eyebrows seeks revenge. Cut to our girl, Ha Kwong-Li, in a comedic training sequence. The master gives her and the guy strict orders before he leaves. Their plan is to fight and become famous. After some fun, Dorian steps in as the new master and he is no fun. Our two then beat up some guy selling bells for some reason that I missed. The girl is assigned yet another master and becomes more spoiled and stubborn. Bell guy returns with friends for a rematch. Did he sayu0026quot;Ding Dong Styleu0026quot;? Thereu0026#39;s another style to add to the list! Dorian enters to save them. The possibility of rape makes the girl change her attitude. Finally the bad guy returns for the final fight.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHa Kwong-Li acted in about 14 movies. I first noticed her as the girl kidnapped in u0026quot;Shaolin Invincible Sticksu0026quot;. She had the lead in 1980 u0026quot;The Woman Avengeru0026quot;. Her next two movies were too embarrassing to mention.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe comedy is dependent on how funny you think falling down, losing your pants, and making faces can be. It fell short of more sophisticated comedy such as a pie in the face.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI can only guess they did not have enough film for a second take? Maybe the director just didnu0026#39;t know how to angle the shot? Whatu0026#39;s the point of all these kicks that miss so clearly? The fatal flaw in this movie is quite obvious.”
