Description
During the ruthless rule of the Ching Dynasty, resistors formed a secret organization. The organizers kept in their possession the ancient drawing of the fighting techniques of the Snake and Crane, which also contained the names of the resistors. In this barbaric tale of political upheaval, through death, those secrets are revealed.

Old "skool" Kung Fu!!.......2006-06-06
Snake Crane Secret is low on my top 10 best kung fu flick/ kickers but is a 5 star in my book. This particular movie has a sentimental value to me. This flick was my first kung fu movie experience as a child, 12 years old,,I was blown away by it,,and I never forgotton the performace of Tan Tao Liang. It was this movie that got me hooked on old School kung fu movies period,,,therefore, with that being said no matter how bad most online previewers feel about it,,,,I THINK IT'S THE BEST KUNG FU MOVEIE EVER MADE!!
actually I give it a 3.5.......2006-02-28
Cheese at its fines. Wu Ma truly puts together a classic. It's not like he is a great director cause he's pretty bad, but this just shows what Godfrey Ho could have done if he spent more than 1 day on his movies. If you wanna see Dean Shek play a badass then watch this movie. Shek doen's look to badass but he almost does. Overall I have to say I love this movie, and the version I have is pretty bad quality so I can't imagine this being any worse. (...)
This Film Is Actually Not Too Bad........2003-06-27
I don't have this particular version of the film, so I can't speak for the quality of this DVD. I have it in one of those Brentwood sets. It looks a broadcast version, because the film fades out and then comes back at the same spot in what look like commercial breaks.
Anywho, I thought this film wasn't too bad. The storyline was okay. The first half of the film features slow moving fight scenes, but by the second half, the fighting has sped up considerably. The people (specifically, Meng Fei and Dorian Tan) aren't throwing punches at each other like they're trying NOT to hurt them. While there isn't anything spectacular about the fight coreography, it moves at a good pace and is still fun to watch. Perhaps if the director undercranked it slightly, the fight scenes would appear to move at an even more enjoyable pace.
So, I'm giving 4 stars to this film because I was expecting it to be really bad and feature really slow fighting, but it turned out to be pretty good instead.

Old Skool Kung Fu!!.......2006-07-02

This flick was my first kung fu movie experience as a child, 12 years old,,I was blown away by it,,and I never forgotton the performace of Tan Tao Liang.

Dean Shek - What Happened To You? :).......2003-07-01
I found this film somewhat enjoyable. The story was okay, which was basically about two brothers, played by Meng Fei and Tan Tao-Liang, who were separated as children when their father was murdered by a fellow martial artist. Of course, in their adult age, they vow to take revenge.
The coreography itself isn't that bad. In the beginning, it's very slow. The women who are fighting in this film are especially unimpressive. But as the film goes on, the pacing of the coreography seems to pick up speed and is actually quite enjoyable. The moves themselves aren't particularly brilliant or exciting, but the speed does help.
What really shocked me about this film, though, was Dean Shek. If you've seen late 70's movies by with Sammo Hung, you'll almost always see Dean playing some skinny, goofy faced bad guy who either gets beaten up, or displays some really silly kung fu moves. Perhaps it was the scar over his one eye that made him really sinister in this film. No making silly faces for the camera in this one. And his fighting was pretty good. Too bad he only fights with one of the women at the end.
This Front Row version is out of print. I got my copy in a Brentwood 4pk, which I think was called 'Warrior's Art'. It's the one with 'Return of The Tiger' and 'Screaming Tiger'. I definitely wouldn't pay .. for the film alone, but getting it in the set was well worth the price.
Avoid like Ebola.......2002-03-02
Really, less than ONE star. This movie is horrible. I have hundreds of Chines movies, and this one is on it's way to becoming a coaster. The movie is really bad, and the DVD quality is so rotten, you can hardly see anything. I tried this film on two different DVD players, and it stank up both of them. I'm almost tempted to ask for my money back.

Vintage Carter Wong...........2007-05-25
This Is A Double Feature On One DVD...; Snake Crane Secret Needs No Mentioning, It Is A Classic In It's Own Right. Delung Tam And Meng Fei Are Just Pure Geniuses In This, Along With The Great Ti Lung. In The Second Feature, I Have To Say This Is One Of The More Better Works Of Carter Wong's That Has Gone Unnoticed. I Don't Know Why They Gave It This Title As Shown On This Flick, But The Original Title Name Is EMPEROR OF SHAOLIN KUNG FU. I Have To Say This Is A Must For The Classics, And Definitely A Collectors Item. You Don't Wanna Miss Having This In Your Collections. It Is Totally Awesome. This Flick Will Have You Sitting On The Edge Of Your Seat. The Plot And Story Is Teriffic, And Lo Lieh Is Sensational. This One Really Got Me Gripping My Seat. Definitely A 5 Star.
