strange.......2006-08-02

listed action directors-robert tai, lau kar wing, and alexander lo rei. I wish that they would have lived up to their names.

Now the kid below is right. This is a godfrey ho type of movie. The story is that Jet "Le" is going somewhere and we get to watch him walk. Actually, all of the newer footage is fighting, really no standing around. It's just that it is not good. If you were to tell me this movie took more than a day to make, I wouldn't believe you. Editing, maybe 2 days. The earlier footage is VERY old and has Lu Feng, James Nam, Bolo, and a bruce lee clone. The fighting sucks in the old stuff but does get good towards the end. In fact, the end of this old movie was better than the end of Jet's. Spoiler alert ahead, not that it matters though. The final fight in this movie involves 2 shirtless guys in the jungle with twin swords going up against jet. And they have their faces painted, and then it lasts about a minute and a half. Just great. I should give this mvoie a one with the way it ends and how it just wrongly tries to correlate these 2 movies together, but the fact that robert tai actually managed to tie them togethter, that is pretty good. When you have seeen hundreds of godfrey ho movies, you have to respect something like that. But then aghain, the new footage shot is stuff like "You wanna fight", "no I don't wanna fight, I have to go", "ok, maybe I'll go with you". And it gets even worse.

The dvd's picture is actually letterboxed! Bonus fight scene included on here is much better than the entire movie.

UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!.......2006-05-31

this movie went from 1974 to 1996 thats a 22 year differential. went from good old fashion chop socky of the early 70's to a mid speed action of the 1990's. robert tai back in 74' must've made his 1st film in that period of time and didnt finish it. and it was good so far. he had the great tien feng, james nam, lu feng before he became a venom and supposedly does the fight choreography along with robert tai and alexander lo rei. and it stars bolo yeung also and jet le? not jet li but jet le and this film is decent but not great so i gave it a 2.

Fake.......2002-05-26

This movie has nothing to do with the original Fist of Legend. Then to add salt to the wound it has nothing to do with JET LI. Instead it stars JET LE (like who is that?). Geez the nerve of people trying to make money under Jet Li's name. Don't waste time or money if you are trying to add to you Jet Li's collection.

ripoff movie 4 sure.............2001-12-22

First of all i just wanna say this movie doesnt even have anything to do with Fist of Legend.It actually had a good storyline too bad it didnt follow it.U wanna know why.........? Because the darn movie breaks off to a old kung fu flick which just flat out confused me because I was following this movie so well until that point I had thought that the star was jet le not the real jet lee but the guy that was on the box the fighting in this movie was ok but the storyline had no chance once they switched up.Whoever made this movie was only trying to make a quick buck.Well I bought it so i guess they did. I knew this movie couldnt even be as half as good as the original.And I wonder does the Wu tang Clan really like some of these flicks? If they do they are corny just like there last two albums.

Robert Tai in the house!!.......2001-08-09

This flick is weird,but has some great [stuff] in it.The dude who is the lead is actually Jet Li's double,and the Russian dude is actually Van Damme's double,so it's the closest we'll get to seeing the two superstars doing it. It's directed by my main man,Robert Tai,who did all the 5 Venom flicks,so you know his action is tight!The Phantasm ninja are off the hook!And the Venom Centipede is in the flick!Jet Le is actually better than Jet Li in my opinion.He's got more moves than Li. The other parts of the flick are old school type fighting with the hi point being Bolo using RED nunchuks! That's new to me!!Count on the Wu Tang to give us some strange but tasty jewels!I would suggest getting they Hidden Chambers series with the suped up extra features though.Flix like Revenge of the Patriots,Fury in Shaolin Temple, Shaolin Kingboxer,etc. They are hands down the best kung fu DVD jointz out there!!Check my other reviews. Peace!
