This succeeded in making me laugh where the other early Jackie Chan films have failed, albeit still for the wrong reasons. There were actually some good fight scenes, the end fight notwithstanding. Jackie and the old dude fighting is what I refer to as 'Chuck Norris treatment' in which people have to slow down their fighting so as not to break the old man's bones.

Jackie's first starring role should be considered essential viewing. There are so many memorable moments in this mess like: the master (Simon Yuen) repeatedly lurking in the bushes, Dean Shek's Popeye attack, Dean Shek's dominoes dance, 35 seconds of Drunken Master (1978) footage spliced in, and the classic quote: "He looks like a pork sandwich!"
