Good film not great.......2007-05-25
I purchased this film based on the high rating the other viewers gave this film it's action packed and the Jack Long was good as the old Master. But to see so many 5 star ratings you would expect to see excellence which I did'nt I have purchased several movies that recieved low ratings that in my opinion where very good. To me the fight scenes were basic and the story line was typical done before but dont get me wrong this is a good film and well worth pocessing but not a 5 star.
Classic.......2007-04-24
I just wish I could see it for the first time again.
This movie is great. We all know Kung Fu movies typically have plots you skip after the first viewing, since they are a) convoluted b) corny as hell or c) stupid. 7 Grandmasters, however, doesn't suffer this pitfall; it has a minimalist storyline that's somewhat archetypal and fun to follow (especially when they use visual comparisons in fights between the new student and the Master). You know exactly what's going on, and enjoy the journeys of the two main characters.
Mainly, though, Jack Long steals the show. You have to expect great things from the brother of Ghostface Killer, and he doesn't disappoint. His martial and acrobatic skills are awesome to behold, and his dignified presence as a confident and reserved Grandmaster of Kung Fu is iconic.
Even if you think Kung Fu movies are all kitschy crap, try this out. You'll at least enjoy some of the great coreography. And if you're a kung fu addict, this is as good as they get.
You Must Have This In Your Collection........2007-04-20
I saw this gem in a Downtown Chicago theatre when I was a shorty. Downtown may be different today but 7 Grand Masters will always be one of the best kung fu flicks ever. You must have this in your collection if you are a true kung fu movie fan. This is a timeless classic.
7 grand masters.......2007-04-02
This is the "Gone with the Wind" of kung fu movies. This one is action packed and shows different styles of Kung Fu. Highly recommended and you'll be hard pressed to find a better movie.
All time favorite.......2007-03-12
I bought this one for my other half just on a whim. This is his all time favorite movie int he martial arts department.
The item was also in great condition!

Description
This is the best production ever of Aikido masters demonstrating ever put together in one tape. You will see the master himself demonstrate and then you will see his seniors all performing at their very best some in color some in B/W.
Names like Gozo Shioda, Koichi Tohei, Kisshomaru Ueshiba, Morihiro Saito, Master Ueshiba and several more of Aikido's top masters all show you there skills.
Some of the footage is in full color while others of it dates back to the 1930's so it is in B/W but it to is in very high quality.
You will see body techniques, sword techniques defence and Offensive, Tanto defence, jo offense and defence techniques one on one and multiple attackers plus just so much more it is incredible.
Much of this footage was lost until very recently and has never been available until mid 2004 so it has most likely not been seen before.
These are the men who Aikido owes its creation to.
Customer Reviews:
Poor quality production.......2007-02-11
I've seen this footage elsewhere (and before 2004) contrary to what the ad tries to suggest that this was recently recovered "lost" footage.
Don't waste your money on this poor quality production. The Aikido Journal release "Aikido Classics" DVD is much better quality.
Not worth 30 dollars.......2005-02-26
The first DVD I got didn't have any information on it, so Amazon sent me another copy that did work. Irritating, but good costumer service by Amazon though. The content was dissapointing when compared to what I was led to believe before bying it. The last ten minutes there were three unknown aikidoka demonstrating! They are even presented as "unknown". Certainly not the masters advertised. The segment on Shioda is by far the best in production quality, but it's only about one minute in lenght. Tohei (the one in addition to Shioda, that I was mostly looking forward to watching) got about 30 seconds in slow motion. Saito about 9 minutes. Morihei Ueshiba about 7 minutes, but the picture clarity is lousy, despite what it says on the DVD cover that the black and white part was of very good quality. Since aikido is about fine motor skills and details, it was difficult to see what was going on when O'Sensei demonstrated. In conclusion; the company behind this DVD release should have higher ambitions concerning their business ethics and product quality. By the way, I recommend the DVD series "Practical Aikido" with Robert Koga and "Aikido Self Defense for the Modern Warrior" with David Dye, for real life aikido self-defense techniques. Two great instructors.
May experience some technical difficulties..........2005-02-23
I was happy to see a DVD on Aikido featuring a variety of its masters (rather than Ueshiba alone). But there is a wide discrepancy in the material quality from one master to the next and the end sequences look like someone just added in their own dojo's home movies to this otherwise historic footage of the masters.

Amazing movie........2007-06-08
I'm not a connoisseur of kung fu flicks, but I do enjoy a cheesy one every now and then, and this one is definitely cheesy. The DVD is very basic, with simple menus and no correction to the film but that just makes this cheese fest even better. Overall though I believe Masters of The Flying Gullotine is a better film but Crippled Masters should definitely be part of your DVD library.
2.5, but I just can't give it a 3.......2006-07-09
The crippled fighting is amazing, but there were not enough fights in this movie!!!!!! They had plenty of training but I need freaking fighting. The storyline is horrible and doesn't really come up with anythign enw except for usign real cripples. But then again, I heard that there is a sequel for this movie and I will definitely check it out if I can. THE CRIPPLED MASTERS ARE GOOD, THEIR MOVIE IS NOT.
Old "Skool" Kung Fu!!.......2006-07-02
Initially, I was un-comfortable about watching two crippled men fight kung fu,,,,but after all the hype I saw on amazon,,I was compelled to this this one out.
This flick is my first experience with both Jackie Conn and Frankie Shum,,,I must admit, I was pleasantly surprized,,,the cinematography and choreography was excellent, and well done. The fight scenes were simply amazing,,and a very tight plot,,,,,,not bad at all,,,well worth watching...After seeing this one,,,i'm now compelled to check out the other flick with both men,, "Crippled Heroes"
Heartfelt account of sheer triumph over so called disability........2006-04-19
This is a movie with real disabled people, just two of them. Though the title may suggest a gimmicky poke fun of, mockery novelty type laugh at "crippled" people sort of movie. It's just the opposite of the that, more on that later. It starts out with action, they chop the arm off of a good guy, well, a guy that we don't know. A while later they chop his other arm off and throw him off down stairs in one of the *SPOILER ALERT* four scenes in which the armless man spins around and around. This is where you think it gets interesting, but no, the viewer must work for that. There are handfulls of wonderful moments in the film. The one armless hero and the one legless hero are good friends. They find another good friend that hides in wooden baskets.
Backing up Arnie's opinion.......2006-03-13
poop in a dvd case. I bought it simply because it has crippled people fighting. It's funny for a couple of minutes.....then you realize how bad it stinks. If given the option to redo my purchase I would still make it. Not that I'm so insensitive, but it was funny watching the cripples fight.

Another great Shaw Brothers movie.......2007-03-10
Chen Kuan Tai plays a kung fu master on the run from a gang called the 3 Evils. Johnny Wang Lung Wei is their leader and these 3 are super tough. After getting injured, Kuan Tai looks for shelter at a young man's house. Yuen Tak plays the young man and stays at a kung fu school. He was taken in as an orphan and has lived there for about 3 years. He gladly takes Kuan Tai in and they begin a very friendly teacher and student relationship. Yuen Tak is not an actor and would never fit in at playing a serious role, but this is a comedy and he fits right in as the lead. He and Yuen Bun are responsible for almost every Hong Kong action movie made in the 90's. Along With Yuen Woo Ping and Corey Yuen Kwai, these 4 directed the action in at least 70% of everthing being made for close to 10 years. Lau Hok Nin plays the school master and he is not exactly a fan of Kuan Tai because of their troubles in the past. The story is very well done and more than enjoyable all the way through. It's not surprising since it is directed by Lu Chun Ku who has done many good movies including 'The Postman Strikes Back' with Ti Lung and 'Holy Fame of the Martial World'. He has worked together with Lau Hok Nin and action director Hsu Hsia before. Lau Hok Nin is even better in this than he was in 'Hell'z Widstaff' and 'Tiger Over Wall', both being directed by Lu Chun Ku. Not only is he a wonderful character actor, but he is no slouch in the kung fu department either. The action is absolutely superb and the entire movie is fight filled. Not a single scene looks rushed, and I always love it when they save the best for last.
While the story is very well done, it also has a lot of unique director touches to it. One of the 3 evil masters is a ladies man and his scene in a brothel is not one you will soon forget. The nudity does get a bit excessive, but the hero of the movie steals the show dressing up as a woman. I was amazed to see all the jiggling, but I had no idea that it would turn out to be so funny.
To go along with the amazing action scenes and great acting and directing job, there is also a very fun soundtrack and beautiful cinematography. It is always nice to see the Shaw Brothers outdoor sets. I could have used a little more comedy out of Chan Lau, but other than that, I can only think of one other fault. Lung Wei uses a hair braid very effectively as a weapon, but it only seems to cut up clothes rather than cut up the body or face. It's a minor gripe, but there is some good blood effects for death scenes, and Lung Wei is an absolute madman with a spear in his hands. There is a lot to be happy about. If you are not a fan of the genre, it may get boring at times, but all kung fu fans will be delighted with this classic. 4.5/5
I have the region 3 IVL version. And if you need it English dubbed, there is the bootleg Red Sun version with slightly inferior picture quality.
Three Evil Masters - "A Sure Old School Kung Fu Classic".......2005-08-30
Listen up all old school Kung Fu fans do not sleep on this one. This is surely in my top 5% of great all time Kung Fu flicks. Years ago, this was one of the flicks (on VHS then) that was least advertised and spoken about in my neighborhood. I just happen to pick it up at my local video rental store because the cover looked interesting. Man, I picked a winner with this one!
This flick is the classic case of a young, skinny, and unskilled student getting picked on and bullied by others - in my opinion - less skillful than himself. Because he was less in stature and position and was the Kung Fu school's flunkee, he was often used as a punching bag - even by his teacher who was supposed to teach him Kung Fu and protect him.
After finding an extremely injured man who managed to escape the clutches of "The Three Evils", he took it upon himself to hide him on the premises and try to nurse him back to health. His fellow students nor his teacher never knew that he was hiding a severely injured man. He later learned that it was this same man that broke his teacher's ribs in a fight. So, Yes, his new friend and teacher had history and an obvious hatred for one another. This fact was played into the plot and carried out well here. Out of pure gratitude for what this young student done for him, this teacher taught him Kung Fu to prevent him from being further bullied.
Once his teacher discovered he had befriended the same man who broke his ribs, he was viewed as a traitor and forced to leave the Kung Fu school. After "The Three Evils" caught up with his friend (who was still injured) and killed him they took over his teacher's school. They forced the teacher to obey their demands and made servants of the students.
After using trickery to gain access into the school as a student again, he began to scheme and plan his revenge against "The Three Evils" for killing his friend and taking over his teacher's school.
I purposely left out many details as to not give away too much of the plot and the excellent ending. It's an ending that can easily go down as being one of the best in Kung Fu.
The Kung Fu in this movie is excellent. This guy has a roundhouse kick you won't believe - whoaaaaaa - it's something you must see for yourself!!!!!! This young student is awesome - totally awesome! It's a shame that I don't see this guy in too many other Kung Fu flicks. The "back" button will be your bestfriend in this one. I can't tell you how many times I had to go back to see a special move saying to myself, "Man, no way, he didn't just do that!" The overdubs on the DVD great - acting - no problem! I was sold. I'm truly impressed with the quality of this old school joint.
I gave this movie a "5" star rating based upon the movie itself not the dubbing of it to DVD. This was a great flick in itself from beginning to end. This is a must have for your Kung Fu collection.
This movie is unbelievable to watch........2004-09-02
Not a bad price, for a darn good flick...
Excellent.......2002-03-23
This is one of the lesser known Shaw Brothers titles but is no slouch. It ranks as one of their best. The opening credit sequence is also quite memorable. The fighting styles are quite unique and acrobatic. "Old school" yes but not the "superman" flying you see in today's films. Chen Kuan Tai is probably at his best here, next to his role in "Executioners From Shaolin". Wang Lung Wei is also superb, probably as amazing as his villain in "Instructors of Death". The hero's climactic battle(s) in the end are worth the price of the DVD alone. Most interesting killing move: received by Wang Lung Wei.
Classic Shaw Brothers.......2002-01-20
"It's just you should be punished. I'm going to chop off your arms, so are you ready? Those word are spoken by Chen Kuan-tai as Chin as so begins probaly the best opening fight sequence in a Shaw Brother movie. Chin takes on all three of the titled villains in a restaurant. Watch closely as the knife expert does a back flip while throwing two knives. The Three Evils are lead by my favorite Shaw actor Wang Lung-wei. You would reconize him as Iron Robe in Kid With the Golden Arm and also from Five Deadly Venoms. In this movie he uses Panther style. In the movie the Three Evils wound Chin and he hides in a Kung-fu school where he is aided by Kao-chin. Chin repays Kao-chin by teaching him new techniques. I don't want to give away the whole movie, which I'm sure you enjoy. All the good Shaw elements are here excellent martial arts and choreography and the hero gets his revenge. I would like to explain why I gave this movie four stars. Like I said I love this movie, but I took one star away because of the quality of the DVD. I know the makers Ground Zero tried to the best they could by using the best original print they could find, but I can't give a perfect rating to am ovie that's neither wide screen nor remasterd. Unfortuantely many reviewers are quick to slap on a perfect rating because the movie is great and forget the quality of the DVD it's self. I just want people to know what they are buying. If you are a old school martial arts fan I encourage you to buy this because it's the best version of this good film at a reasonable price. I can only hope that one day someone takes the Shaw films seriously and gives a digital remasters with all the extras.

mixed quality, not enough of Bruce.......2006-12-31
Got this as a gift, so I can't complain too much. However, the one real Bruce Lee movie in the set I already had a copy of. Mostly this is a collection of Sonny Chiba movies of mixed quality.
Some of the movies have been cropped to look like widescreen, but you can tell that they got cropped too much, cutting off part of words that were on the bottom of the screen and/or cutting off people's heads at the top of the screen. What's the point? They probably copied it from VCR and cropped it to fool people into thinking they are watching a digitally re-mastered movie. The cropping was particularly obvious on Shogun's Ninja, and Ninja Wars is obviously copied from VCR tape with a noisy sound track and occasional tracking lines. Honestly, I have duped better quality VCR copies on my home DVD recorder.
The best quality is The Street Fighter, which also seems to be the movie that made Chiba famous, mainly because it is so shockingly violent. There are scenes where he punches holes into people or pulls out hunks of their flesh from sensitive parts of their bodies. Very nasty. In fact, I read somewhere else that when the movie was first released in the U.S. they gave it an X rating because it was so violent.
Anyway, rule of thumb with these old martial arts movies seems to be that when you buy them in big collections you should not expect good quality. While it might sound good you are getting 14 hours of entertainment for small change, you should keep in mind that you always get what you paid for. So, set your expectations low with this collection.
Worst piece of garbage I've ever bought.......2006-10-15
Bruce Lee may be the photo on the cover, but there's only one Bruce Lee movie in this collection, Fists of Fury, and it looks like it was taken off an old print. You get vertical lines randomly appearing throughout the movie, and the sound won't work properly with a home theater system. You'd be better off just buying a watchable copy of Fists of Fury, and ignoring this.
THE PERFECTLY LETTERBOXED REMASTERED VERSION OF THE STREET FIGHTER THAT YOU HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2006-08-26
It also has Streetfighter's revenge and the horrible Sister Street Fighter. To top it off they throw great movies like Shogun's Ninja and Fist of Fury in(aka the Big Boss). Throw in a couple of the worst movies ever to go along with it and you have every reason in the world to buy this. IT IS CHEAP. Amazon has it for 10 bucks. BUY THIS TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Adn if you have seen True Romance, this is THE trilogy featured in that movie. You just don't get any better than Sonny ripping that guys throat out. And has anybody ever figured out why that guy fights Chiba in EVERY one of their movies?
a very good set, but the bruce lee movies are not that hot.......2006-05-15
the bruce lee part of this set is really just three movies that use clips of bruce so don't think your getting some of his best. that is the reason for the 4 star rating. the other movies are really fun martial arts movies with sonny chiba in them and they look good. so if you like these movies this is a really good set.
Its Great.......2005-12-21
I had prepared a long and insightful review of this DVD set, but then my computer crashed and I lost it before I could post it. And I don't feel like typing it up all over again. So just buy this DVD set will you! Its better than you think.

Old School Gung Fu Flick.......2007-03-11
This is one of Gordon Liu's movies that encouraged me to take up weapons. The fighting scenes are excellent and the Shaolin is very good. There is a fighting scene were Liu Kar Liang and Gordon square off. Its just spectacular. This is a Must See Movie.
A Kung Fu Instructor's sun wishes his father would teach him martial arts but he doesn't because the young man [Gordon Liu] is to hot headed. But an expert takes him in as a student and he learns in 3 years and the rest is Great Kung Fu! Get this one Now!
