The One That Started It All.
Jackie’s first big hit. It’s easy to see why it was so popular when it was first released. Nobody had ever seen comedy and kung fu mixed together before. And if it wasn’t for Jackie, we might have never have. Good and plentiful fights easily make this a kung fu classic that still entertains over 20 years later.

Beggar So’s sequence with the bowl n Chan is incredible. Watch out for the snake style n cat style fights.
Saw this first on a VHS in mid 80s. Lots of fighting, done in a comical way. If you like old school Kung Fu movies, seek this one out; and if you are a fan of Jackie Chan, seek this one out.

In this movie Jackie learns the snake fist style, and combines it with the cat claw. It is one of the biggest classics of martial arts cinema, the film that started a new subgenre in kung fu cinema , the comedy kung fu cinema and the breakthrough film for its star, the legendary Jackie Chan.

Its directed by Woo-Ping Yuen (real son of Yuen siu-tien aka beggar So). Woo-Ping Yuen is the one behind Man of tai chi, kill Bill 2, kung fu hustle,Forbidden kingdom, iron monkey, matrix series, crouching tiger….

The fights are stunningly choreographed even if one can often see that a blow doesn’t actually hit when we hear it… the sounds that accompany the fights are funny because they are so over the top. Jackie is taught the snake style from the teacher, beggar So. Then by chance he learns a new style by watching a cat defeat a snake. Beggar So’s sequence with the bowl and Chan is incredible.
